Publisher Kakehashi Games and developer DON YASA CREW announced a release date for SONOKUNI, their Japanese hip-hop themed biopunk action game.

SONOKUNI is set to launch for Windows PC (via Steam) on March 24th and a bit later for Nintendo Switch on March 31st.

Here’s a rundown on the previously announced game, plus a new trailer:

Battle your way through a biopunk and Japanese mythology-inspired landscape filled with over-the-top, hip hop-infused 2D action. A single hit means death, but use your time-bending skills to take down your oppressors and you might yet save your dying nation.

Features

• Become a harbinger of vengeance – Engage in up-close-and-personal combat against bizarre genetically mutated enemies. Attack, parry and bend time to your will to make it out clean on the other side. Fail and gain the wisdom needed to refine your strategy.
• A mind-bending take on Japanese mythology – Take on the role of Takeru, a lone assassin tasked with raiding a surreal superpower empowered by biotechnology. Join in her struggle to balance the morality of extreme violence against the defence of her own people, in a story inspired by real-life Japanese mythology.
• Immerse yourself in neon-drenched hip hop – Let the intense hip hop soundscape and neon-soaked visuals assault your senses until they are raw. Every moment is punctuated with a visceral soundtrack from Japanese developer and hip hop group, DON YASA CREW.
