The infamous Japanese manga series illustrated by Tetsuo Hara, is back in the form of a video game. Several licensed Hokuto no Ken video games have been released in Japan throughout the years but this new one is different in one way more than others… it’s gonna be released in Western regions! So we get to play it too. Two game modes will be available, one that will have a more action adventure feel, and will follow faithfully the events of the first series of the anime, and another mode that will be more similar to the classic Musou gameplay (one player vs hundreds). You will be very happy to hear that blood will be fully displayed, and not censored… truly Ken Shiro-esque.
No blogpost about ‘Fist of the North Star’ would be complete without embedding the “Tough Boy” soundtrack to the TV series which made Ken Shiro a household name. This was way back in the mid 80’s. Enjoy the karaoke text, if you can read it!
