Samurai Shodown 6 (or "Samurai Spirits Tenkaichi Kenkakuden" in Japan which roughly translates to "Tale of the World's Greatest Swordsman") is the tenth iteration in the Samurai Shodown series of fighting games.

[edit] Overview

Samurai Shodown 6 is the newest installment to the Samurai Shodown series after Samurai Shodown V. The game features new backgrounds with 2D and 3D elements, as well as a returning cast of all 24 characters from Samurai Shodown V. It also features a "spirit select" system, which allows players to choose between six different fighting styles based on all 6 previous installments of Samurai Shodown. Despite normal Samurai Shodown releases and distribution outside of Japan, the game has been released outside of the country on the Atomiswave system sponsored in the United States by Sega.
