The last time we heard about Muramasa: The Demon Blade was around Tokyo Game Show where XSEED confirmed they were co-publishing it in North America and Rising Star Games mentioned Europe was getting it in November. Fortunately, our wait for Muramasa: The Demon Blade might not be as long Europe’s. Two separate retailers claim the game is coming out in July. XSEED must have sent out marketing materials today because this isn’t the only XSEED retail rumor we discovered. While retailers aren’t always accurate it seems like we’re going to get Muramasa: The Demon Blade sometime in the summer.
Random fact: Did you know Vanillaware gave a nod to Super Mario Brothers in Muramasa: The Demon Blade? The kunoichi in the pink kimono is called Momohime and if you translate this from Japanese to English you get Princess Peach.
