Three years after reaching the top of the United Assassins Association, Travis Touchdown has fallen to rank 51. He takes up his beam katana again and battles rival assassins as he works his way back up the rankings.
Fight through stages of enemies and face ranked assassins in boss battles, using katana strikes, wrestling moves, and special attacks. Travis can switch between weapons, including dual beam katanas; some sections let you play as Shinobu or Henry.
Choose destinations and missions from a menu rather than exploring an open city. Optional jobs take the form of retro-style minigames that earn money for weapons, clothing, and training upgrades.
Players who enjoy the game often praise its satisfying katana combat, eccentric humor and style, and energetic soundtrack. Some also like playing as Shinobu and Henry or appreciate the more direct mission structure. Opinions are mixed, especially about the changes to side activities and the removal of city exploration.
