Afro Samurai is an upcoming video game for Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 to be released in Fall 2008[1] based on the popular manga and anime series of the same name. It was announced in the February 2008 issue of play magazine.[2]
As with the anime series, the title character is voiced by Samuel L. Jackson and features a cel-shaded animation style. Though it is a hack and slash game, the "fighting is a bit more strategic" and the player will be able to block and use combos. The enemies will respond by rolling, ducking and hopping over the player's blade.[1]
