About Hakuoki: Warriors of the Shinsengumi

Hakuoki: Warriors of the Shinsengumi blends the beautifully told visual novel, Hakuoki: Demon of the Fleeting Blossom, into an action-packed adventure game fun for those new to the series or fans from the beginning!  As one of six legendary samurai, become stronger and more deadly as you battle imperial soldiers, samurai and blood-thirsty furies.  Hakuoki: Warriors of the Shinsengumi follows two storylines where players can either follow the events of Hakuoki: Demon of the Fleeting Blossom or play in an alternate universe where events unfold very differently.

Two Major Storylines – Play through events of Hakuoki: Demon of the Fleeting Blossom with each of the six playable characters, or change history in “Shinsengumi Chronicle”!

Shinsengumi Chronicle – Change history as any one of the six main characters in “Shinsengumi Chronicle” mode.  Play in an alternate universe where you control the fate of the Shinsengumi!

Shinsengumi Memorial – Step into the shoes of your favorite samurai and play through battles from Hakuoki: Demon of the Fleeting Blossom.  Join in on the action as you battle your way through Kyoto in “Shinsengumi Memorial” mode.

Skirmish Mode – Replay past battles to add some more kills or level up your character to be more deadly.  Unlock two addition characters in this mode and duke it out on your favorite stages.

Fury Mode – When a character’s life is spent, he will enter Fury Mode, unleashing an inner ferocious killing machine, able to tear down anyone that gets in his way.  However, becoming a Fury too many times can unlock a particularly bad ending.
