About Way of the Samurai 4

✦ AI summary

Master a masterless samurai navigating 19th century Japan's cultural clash between traditional isolationists, pro-government forces, and foreign powers, with your choices drastically reshaping the story's outcome. Combine dynamic sword combat, extensive character customization, and branching narratives that let you become a legendary hero or despised villain entirely on your own terms.

Way of the Samurai 4 takes place in the humble port town of Amihama during the mid 19th Century, several years after the arrival of the “black ships” from the West ended Japan’s long history of cultural isolation.

What Steam players say

✦ AI summary

Way of the Samurai 4 is a fun and quirky samurai action RPG with varied gameplay, multiple branching storylines, and solid replayability that players clearly enjoy. However, the PC port suffers from significant technical issues including crashes, alt-tab problems, and launching difficulties that require workarounds found in community forums to resolve. Players recommend the game to fans of the series and those seeking an unconventional samurai experience, but acknowledge the frustration of wrestling with its technical problems.

Recommended Sep 14, 2026
Has to be the first game I've played where I feel encouraged to keep replaying. Already on my third playthrough, trying not to become soup this time. Once you figure out what's going on with the HUD, items, weapons, and fighting stances, the game becomes a great blend of freedom and action. Feels like a 3d fighter with open zones and an entertaining story. A testament to one of the greatest eras in gaming.
