Developer Digital Mind Games and publisher Kwalee have released a new trailer for side-scrolling action game The Spirit of the Samurai. The trailer not only gives us a great look at some gameplay, but it also gives us a deeper look into its stop-motion animation.

Throughout the trailer, protagonist Takeshi makes his way through various environments, along with their companion cat Chisai, as well as a small spirit, Kodama. Along the way, players will have to take on many different enemies in brutal combat, including epic boss fights. All of the action is punctuated by the trademark choppiness of the game’s chosen stop-motion animation-inspired style.

The game had gotten another trailer back in June 2023, where we got our earliest look at some of the gameplay in The Spirit of the Samurai. The trailer from last year indicated that each of the playable characters will have their own unique specialties, with abilities that make them suited to tackle situations in different ways.

The Spirit of the Samurai is coming to PC in Fall 2024.
