Kenseiden (剣聖伝?) is a video game for the Sega Master System created by SEGA. Kenseiden was released in 1988.
Kenseiden stars Hayato, a samurai that has to fight against warlocks and evil spirits that plague 16th century Japan. The warlocks stole the five secret scrolls and the sword of the Dragon Lord. Hayato, who has dragon blood in his veins, must recover the scrolls and sword and enter the castle and kill the evil spirits.
Kenseiden features a cameo of Alex Kidd, Sega's mascot at the time.
In the original Japanese version, Hayato is blond. In the Western versions he has black hair.
