After more than a decade, Samurai Jack the time-traveling swordmaster will be making his return to the video game format. Adult Swim Games and Japanese developer Soleil Games have announced a brand new video game based on the hit animated series.
While there is no release date announced for Samurai Jack (The Video Game?), we do know that the game will be following the visual aesthetics from the original award-winning animated series which started way back in 2001 (and was one of my personal favorites growing up). The script of the game will be written by series head writer Darrick Bachman. Samurai Jack: Battle Through Time is set before Jack’s final fight with Aku, an evil entity that trapped Jack in alternate timelines throughout human history. Jack will have to fight through several different timelines in order to reach Aku and defeat him. The gameplay will combine hack-and-slash gameplay and allow players to wield a variety of different melee and ranged weapons.
