Samurai Shodown, also known as Samurai Spirits, was converted for the Sega CD system after its original arcade release. This fighting game features a roster of characters each wielding unique weapons and special moves, set during the 18th-century Japanese Tokugawa period. Despite hardware limitations, the Sega CD version aimed to replicate the arcade experience with its vibrant graphics and character-driven combat, featuring a mix of historical and fictional figures. Released in 1993, Samurai Shodown stands as a classic example of the genre, praised for its art style and strategic gameplay.
