Samurai Shodown director discusses the game's gore

Samurai Shodown isn't anywhere near Mortal Kombat in terms of blood and guts, but it does have it's fair share of gore. As of right now, the game includes copious amounts of blood when you slice an opponent, but it quickly fades away. When asked about the gore, director Nobuyuki Kuroki had this to say.

“Although we’ve made it so that a lot of blood will spill out from attacks, the game’s main focus isn’t on this, but rather the struggle of life and death between warriors, so we didn’t feel the need to add in much gore. For those who don’t like gore, you can turn off the blood completely.”
