Gameplay

The game is a one-on-one fighter that maps sword strokes, thrusts, and lunges to Wii Remote and Nunchuk motions. Each player brings a partner fighter into battle for assist moves and can switch between the two on the fly. The roster holds 32 characters, and multiplayer bouts split the screen between opponents.
