Samurai Shodown Slash Turns The SNK’s Fighting Game Series Into A Runner

There’s a new Samurai Shodown game in the works and it’s not a pachislot title. However, Samurai Shodown Slash probably isn’t what you’re expecting either. Made for the Korean market, this mobile game brings Haohmaru, Nakoruru, Hanzo, and Charlotte into a hack ‘n slash running game.

Players run through stages and use jump (left button) to avoid obstacles or attack (right button) to slash. This game looks more like Wind Runner than a Samurai Shodown game, but Samurai Shodown Slash isn’t just a Samurai Shodown game. You can get a pet and there are some guests from The King of Fighters series. Mai, Kyo, and Iori make an appearance in this too.
