## Gameplay

Gameplay screenshot.

The gameplay is similar to Sengoku, except that the playable character is constantly armed with a sword for they which can initiate wide plane attacks and vertical slashes. Pressing both attack buttons together allows the character to block or dodge attacks. Another button combo gets the character to perform a special trick attack. The character can also jump and do jump attacks. Occasionally the character would be mounted on horseback and have to carefully hack and slash enemies during a canter.

The player can change their character to one of three warriors assisting the protagonists, including the armour-clad wolf Kirimaru, the shuriken-throwing ninja Mike Walsh, and the staff-wielding Crow Tengu God for a limited time. Various collectible orbs heal the character's health or enhance the character's attack abilities and that of the different forms' capabilities.

An evil warlord is intent on conquering the world, this time by the use of time travel to conquer every known important event in history. The two protagonists from the previous game, Claude Yamamoto and Jack Stone,[4] are joined by three allies (Mike, Crow and Kirimaru) and sent by priestess Princess Miko from the past to battle the warlord's forces to restore the world's ages and ensure the warlord's conquest never succeeds.
