“Stop praying. This is pathetic.”
Asura’s Wrath doesn’t so much defy description as demand a lengthy one: The game, produced by CyberConnect2 (best known for the .hack and Naruto series’ as well as Solatorobo on the DS and Silent Bomber on the original PlayStation), is a pseudo-episodic Hindu/Buddhist cosmology and anime inspired revenge romp comprising of arena brawler, on-rails shooter and extended QTE sections! Leon, Tony, Darren Forman and James Carter max out their synchronic rate and burst furiously into action.
Music used in this show is as follows:
Track 1: In Your Belief (Prologue) by Kaoru Wada (vocal by Tomoyo Mitani)
Track 2: Retaliation by Chikayo Fukuda
Track 3: Solemn by Chikayo Fukuda
