Some people like to use underhanded tactics to secure victory, while others fight with honour, and if you happen to be part of the latter, there’s a good chance you like samurai games. In history, there’s no warrior quite as honourable as the samurai of Japan, after all. These legendary combatants take their duty seriously, so much so that it’s not beyond them to make great sacrifices to restore their honour.
If you want to step in their shoes, I implore you to, but prepare yourself, as the path a samurai walks isn’t for everyone. Nonetheless, I took it upon myself to stare my enemies down, katana in hand, even with the odds stacked against me, just to bring you all the best samurai games on Nintendo Switch and mobile.
Of course, if you prefer to fight from the shadows and with as little honour as possible, perhaps the life of a shinobi is for you, in which case, head over to our list of the best ninja games. Or, if you’re happy for your enemies to know you’re there, but still lack honour, our picks for the best pirate games is the place to be.
