Kagura Combat Decoded: Fluid Swordplay Meets Tactical Kami Command

The Switch 2 debut revolutionizes Kunitsu-Gami‘s “Kagura Action Strategy” with exclusive features. Players slash through Yokai hordes using motion-controlled iaijutsu (Joy-Con katana swings), then pause to deploy spirit allies via radial menus using the console’s dual-mouse precision. RE Engine’s “Temporal Strategy System” dynamically scales resolution (1080p handheld/4K docked) during 100+ enemy sieges. “Switch 2’s tensor cores maintain 60fps during chaos,” confirms Capcom’s Takashi Fujihara. Haptic feedback replicates shamisen strings during purification rituals.

Dance of Steel and Spirit Kunitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddess is a visually striking, Japanese-inspired single-player action strategy game from Capcom, blending ritualistic beauty with real-time combat and tactical defense. Set in a world where the spiritual and mortal realms collide, players must guide a divine maiden and cleanse corrupted lands in a rhythm of blade and tradition. Launching July 19, 2024, the game combines Kagura-style action, strategic unit placement, and a unique day-night cycle that shifts gameplay from preparation to high-stakes battle. With richly stylized visuals, intricate combat mechanics, and culturally rooted storytelling, it offers a fresh twist on the tower defense genre, optimized for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, Switch 2, and PC. Kunitsu-Gami invites players to wield beauty as a weapon and strategy as salvation—where every choice is sacred, and every clash a ceremony.
