Overview

About this game

Bushi is currently in Beta. You may encounter bugs or unfinished features as we continue development. We plan to release new content and update the game frequently based on player feedback.

Bushi is a free-to-play multiplayer samurai arena fighter featuring wall-running, parries, grappling hooks, and deep build customization.

Wall-run across ancient temples, dodge incoming attacks, reflect projectiles with perfectly timed parries, and outmaneuver your opponents in fast-paced combat that rewards mastery.

Whether you prefer aggressive offense, defensive counterplay, or high-speed mobility, Bushi gives you the tools to forge your own path to victory.

Master Movement

Movement is more than transportation, it's a weapon.

  • Run across walls and traverse the battlefield with fluid parkour.

  • Slide beneath attacks and reposition on the fly.

  • Use the Grapple Hook to reach unexpected angles and escape danger.

  • Chain movement and combat together to outplay your opponents.

Victory belongs to the warrior who controls the battlefield.

Precision Combat

Every decision matters.

  • Engage enemies with swift sword strikes and devastating heavy attacks.

  • Pick off opponents from range using your bow.

  • Time your dodges to avoid deadly attacks.

Skillful play is rewarded, and every fight is an opportunity for a comeback.
