Watching Ninja Blade in action for the first time at Microsoft’s Daitabashi offices, it reminded us of another From Software action classic, Otogi: Myth of Demons. While Ninja Blade and Otogi don’t really have that much in common outside of being hack and slash action games, there’s something to protagonist Ken Ogawa’s three weapons — especially the giant, armor-smashing sword he carries — that makes us think “Hey, these guys made Otogi. Maybe this’ll be good.”
