Seven Samurai 20XX is a PlayStation 2 game released by Sammy Studios in 2004. Its story and concept are based upon Akira Kurosawa 's movie the Seven Samurai . Rights for the production of the game were given by the Kurosawa production, with character designs by renowned French artist Mœbius and the composition of the music by Ryuichi Sakamoto . GAMEPLAY Seven Samurai 20XX is a Hack And Slash Video Game , as the protagonist of the game is faced with the task of destroying overwhelming hordes of enemies with his swords. Like many others of its Genre , it utilizes a combo system, showing the player how many uninterrupted hits they have inflicted upon their opponents. The main draw of the game is the potential skill-related battle commands such as the Nitou-Ryu mode which allows the player to wield a second Katana for a limited time, increasing the speed, range and power of the players combos. The point of the game is to constantly keep the second sword out, by increasing the durability of its timer with just steps, '''just guards''', and '''just attacks'''. When the timer for nitou-ryu runs out, the player must put the second sword back in its sheath again, until the timer refills back to 100%, allowing the sword to be pulled out again. Battle maneuvers Nitou-Ryu mode-engaged by simultaneously pressing the L1 and R1 buttons on the PlayStation 2 Controller . This mode allows the player to rack up combos more efficiently and lasts until the timer reaches zero. After this, the player must usually wait until it recharges to 100%, but can perform just guards and just steps to recover more rapidly (both in active and recharge durations). Just guard - allows the player to deflect an enemy's attack with skilfully timed uses of the triangle button. It allows the player to avoid damage and generates a counter-attack opportunity. This move also fully refills the Nitou-Ryu timer to 100% of its capacity. Just Step - with proper timing of the X button, allows the player to avoid an enemy's attack and "step" (in game, it looks more akin to a teleport) behind the enemy for a counter attack. This move partially refills the Nitou-Ryu timer. Just attack - by moving the Analog Stick in the direction of one or more enemies whilst pushing the square button, the player dashes towards them in at great speed, breaking their defense, and moving closer to the enemy. This move also partially refills the Nitou-Ryu meter. Others - the game also incorporates various Street Fighter -like combos and "Charge attacks" which occur when holding the square button at various combos and when dashing with the X button. PLOT While the story is based on the original Seven Samurai , its story and plot have more in common with its animated counterpart '' Akira Kurosawa's Samurai 7 ''. The year is 20XX and the setting is Japan . Humans and Humanoids , the latter comprising of various mutants, cyborgs, and robots, maintain a delicate balance in a large, unnamed city (somewhat resembling a post-apocalyptic Tokyo ) where the power and balance of the city is maintained by a large structure known as the ''Steeple of light''. Its source of power is a young girl named the Child Of Heaven . When the child is stolen by the humanoids in order to break the balance and initiate war, the child then goes missing from her inhuman captors and is held by the villagers to ransom to the city for money. When the humanoids and various Agents of the city set out to retrieve her and her Sacred Jewel , the villagers quickly find themselves in danger and look for Samurai (known in the game as "hunters") to protect them. The game storyline is divided into "chapters":
Steeple of Light The Steeple of Light is a tower located in the middle of the city in the game's setting. It houses various clones of the Sacred child along with the current girl herself who prays with the sacred jewel, and provides power to the surrounding city and areas. When the child and jewel are kidnapped, the tower loses its power of source and sends the balance of species in to a war over her power. SEE ALSO REFERENCES | ||||||||||||||||||||||
