This ‘Way Of The Samurai 4’ Launch Trailer Is…Pretty Damn Weird

Way Of The Samurai 4 ships TODAY and with this auspicious moment the folks over at Acquire games have released this interesting launch trailer…yeah,”interesting”.

This is obviously a game that doesn’t take itself too seriously. With Saints Row absurd costumes and activities, this looks like something I’d love to play. 1:09 of the trailer is probably the funniest thing I’ve seen all week. From the video release:

PS3 exclusive Way of the Samurai 4 takes place in the harbor town of Amihama, several years after the arrival of the “black ships” from the West ended Japan’s long history of cultural isolation. Will you aid the traditional isolationists in their attempts to exile this potential threat to the Japanese way of life? Will you aid the shogunate government in their attempts to keep the peace and establish cordial (but limited) relations with the foreigner contingent? Or will you aid the foreigners in their attempts to establish silk trade and foster cultural exchange, even at the expense of a few traditions? Who will you support? Who will you betray?

Way Of The Samurai 4 ships today and is available on PS3
