For some reason im close to beeing tired of hearing the Masamune/Muramasa thing in games.

why dont beeing a little more originals and used a new name or something

 

That's the price of having a legendary status, you get a TON of references. And since its a ninja game, it'll have plenty of Japanese cultural period references... and as such seeing Masamune and Muramasa weaponry is of little surprise.

 

Sounds a bit like Onimusha.

I only played Genma Onimusha on the Xbox but loved every minute of it.

 

It's 2D and made by Vanillaware. Epic.

 

Neat art style. But ill have to wait for some gameplay before I can decide if I want to try this out.
