Check out the Demo Launch Trailer for Sick Samurai, a retro-inspired top-down action shooter developed by Solideo. Players will move with intense speed to take out enemies, listen to lofi hip hop, and deal out carnage with retro anime aesthetics, where instant death is permitted for the enemies and the player. Sick Samurai is launching in Q1 2026 with a demo available now for PC (Steam).

So a Samurai Hotline Miami? Looks pretty good.

The dash looks too OP.

Also cringe

lofi hip hop, and deal out carnage with retro anime aesthetics,

 

[Magic Carpet]

I am indeed Sick of Samurai games.

I love hotline Miami 1&2. Not a single game since them, including this one, has managed to get my interest.

The closest may be katana zero which isn't top down but it is amazing.

 

[ResilientBanana]

looks bad.

 

[saintjules]

Cowboy Bebop + Samurai Champloo vibes. I'd get it if it wasn't a top down game.

 

[sloppyjoe_gamer]

Looks boring, and im tired of both samurai games and that half assed ugly art style

 

[Killer8]

Based on the voice acting, i'm assuming it's throat cancer?

This. Huge fan. And weirdly enough more so of HM2. These games don't do shit for me.

Also think this art style sucks ass.

I get you line of thinking, but the music in the video alone should disqualify the comparison.

lol I didn't have my volume on. Atleast we can still bump Perturbator or Carpenter brut and mute the in-game music.

 

[Hideous Snake]

This looks fucking good
