Ashikai is coming!

Ashikai is a dark fantasy isometric action RPG set in a yokai-cursed feudal Japan. You play as Shinro, a samurai cut off from his lord after an ambush, fighting through cursed roads, caves, and ruined strongholds to find Lord Kuroda and make his way back to his family.

Combat is built around precise katana timing: parries, clean hits, committed attacks, enemy tells, and mistakes that matter. Enemies can react, defend, dodge, punish bad positioning, and pressure you if you push too far before you are ready.

The announcement trailer is live now. If Ashikai looks like your kind of game, please wishlist it on Steam. It helps a lot, especially this early.

We’ll be posting more updates here as development continues: combat clips, dungeon progress, enemy showcases, devlogs, and behind-the-scenes work on the game.

Thanks for checking it out.
