In Samurai Western, you're Gojiro Kiryu, a samurai seeking his lost brother, Rando, in the Wild West. On arrival, he finds the region oppressed by tycoon Goldberg, whose henchmen have turned settlements into ghost towns. Despite initial indifference, Gojiro's samurai code compels him to fight Goldberg's tyranny, leading to a potential showdown when he discovers a link between the tycoon and Rando. Unlike the original Way of the Samurai games, this game prioritizes action over adventure. It's divided into stages, each requiring you to defeat numerous enemies, with options for single or dual players and various difficulty levels.
