Attention dear big fans: CAVE's side scrolling game, Akai Katana, is about to take off with 3 titles in one, a brand new online ranking and new music arrangements !

"Akai Katana" is a side scrolling shooting game released in 2010 in arcades.
A port was later made in Japan for more advanced hardware under the name of "Akai Katana Shin", and thanks to the 16:9 screen ratio, the game became even more intuitive.
Finally, a third opus was made later under the name of "Zetsu Akai Katana", in which the quality of life and the balance of the game have been revised.
Each game will ask you to use different tactics, so prepare yourself.
