Big in Japan.


<span class="bold">Throne of Darkness</span>, a fast-paced ARPG where you slaughter hordes of exotic demons with your well-trained samurai, is now available DRM-free, exclusively on GOG.com.

Combine powerful warlords with demonic influence and trouble will soon follow. When the most prominent shogun surrenders to darkness, only a handful of heroic samurai is left standing against the evil that now threatens to engulf the land of Yamato. Seven distinct classes, tons of neat loot, and massive demonic armies that can't wait to meet your mouse pointer make this a real treasure for lovers of Diablo-style gameplay.

tinyE: I'm working on my own MP game: "47,684 Samurai". It will be a must have for anyone with 47, 683 friends that wants a fast action game set in medieval Japan.

I never managed to lay my hands on the disc version of this, original release or the Sold Out label. No shops stocked it and I remember trying to order it from HMV Online back in 2001 but the order just sat there and it never appeared.

So pleased it is here now and I can finally play it, thanks GOG :)

I'll always remember this game as the one with the dude with a gaping mouth where his diaphragm should be :P

That is also the cover of the big ass manual that came with it that I am leafing through right now.

Klumpen0815: Come on!
The game is from 2001, you could at least give WinXP support to that one.
Microsoft doesn't supports it, why would GOG?

Wouldn't expect a game like this to have such a big manual? Big font or is the game just that complex? Or perhaps lots of inconsequential lore? I love it when game manuals include that.

Quite a lot of lore, if I remember well. A bit like Diablo II's. There's also small but complete biographies for all fighter in each of the four clans (so 7x4 bios!).

I'll keep posting this every time Activision re-releases a game here:

We need Soldier of Fortune 1 & 2 on here already, damnit!

Very cool. I bought Diablo II with some saved up money while away on vacation. I.e. without my pc, which made it torture waiting to get back home. It was all the lore included in the manual which I read over and over that kept me from going insane :P

I'd like to see your emoticon when you release the damn game. Because you will. Eventually. ;)

Mmm, we have to have SOME degree of quality control. ;)

I did love Samurai Shodown back in the day, that was probably my favourite of the fighting games of that era.

Me like...this wasn't already here?! O.o
So obviously a very nice addition. :)
