Yasuke Simulator
Release date: March 20, 2025
Genre: Action, Shooter, Slasher, Indie
Platforms: PC
Yasuke Simulator is a video game that takes us to 1579 Japan, where the main character is Yasuke, an African warrior who became the first foreign samurai in history. The story revolves around his adventures serving under Oda Nobunaga, the legendary warlord aiming to unite the country. The game promises action with a touch of historical inspiration — battles with katanas, hunting for secret equipment, and even the possibility to 'awaken ancestral power' for powerful attacks.
The developers at HistoryAccurateDevelopers claim to have created a 'fully accurate' representation of feudal Japan, though from the trailer, it's hard to believe this, as Yasuke is seen driving a red sports car and shooting from an automatic rifle, which looks more like a crazy GTA mix than a historical reconstruction.
The game is described as an action-adventure with elements of satire. You can swing a katana with samurai grace, smash enemies in close combat, or discover new moves to feel like a true warrior. The map promises to be filled with secret places containing unique gear to help in battles. Features include a strong focus on 'epic' battles and a somewhat absurd approach to history, clearly hinting at parody.

Genre: Action, Indie
Platforms: PC, Nintendo Switch
SONOKUNI is a bright and daring top-down action game released on March 24, 2025, which immediately grabbed attention with its unusual mix of styles. The game is available on PC via Steam, with a Nintendo Switch version promised later. It was created by the Japanese hip-hop group DON YASA CREW, who decided to try game development in 2020 during the pandemic, and published by Kakehashi Games. It’s a true explosive cocktail of Japanese mythology, biopunk, and street culture.
You play as Takeru, a lonely female assassin who challenges a powerful empire entangled in biotechnology. Her hometown, Sonokuni, is on the brink of extinction, and the only chance for salvation is to break through the enemies and destroy the invaders' plans. The story is inspired by Japanese myths but presented through the lens of a dark future where moral dilemmas—whether to kill or protect—become part of Takeru's journey. The story is presented unobtrusively, leaving room for your own reflections.
The gameplay is pure adrenaline: one hit, and you’re dead, but the enemies fall with one precise strike too. It’s essential to move fast, attack with a sword, parry strikes, and even bend time to survive the slaughterhouse. Rooms are full of strange mutants—from crazy beasts to slugs and shooters with homing arrows—and each battle feels like a dance, where the rhythm is set by the heavy hip-hop soundtrack created by the developers themselves. The music is a separate delight: Japanese rap with powerful beats fits perfectly with the action, turning each fight into a scene from an anime clip.
The graphics are vibrant, with neon colors and biopunk design—these living fabrics, green slime, and mythical creatures create a surreal atmosphere. The game is difficult, sometimes even frustrating, but it wins you over with its honesty—died? Try again, and that’s it. There are minor flaws like rare frame drops, but they don’t affect the overall impression. SONOKUNI is a short but powerful punch: 6–10 hours that leave you wanting to revisit this crazy world. If you love Hotline Miami or just want something stylish and fresh, there’s plenty to enjoy here.

You have 8 types of towers, each with its own abilities and plenty of customization options. For example, you can enhance range or add poison to enemies—there are tons of possibilities.
The gameplay is based on endless replayability—you’ll face random enemy waves, select heroes from hundreds of combinations, and relics that give bonuses either to the economy or defense. There's also the Oracle, which offers options before a battle: either stronger enemies but better rewards, or cheaper towers but with a reduced range. This adds strategy and forces you to think on your feet.
The graphics are pleasant, with a top-down view, in the spirit of Scandinavian legends, and the controls are so simple that you won’t get confused even if it's your first time playing. There’s an endless waves mode for those who want to fully test themselves, and global leaderboards in case you want to make it to the top and earn a place in Valhalla.
