Tenjutsu Is A Pixel Pugilist 2D Title From Dead Cells Designer

From today’s Devolver Digital showcase comes a new top-down 2D action title from the mind behind Dead Cells: Tenjutsu.

In Tenjutsu, you play as a renegade yakuza who beats up her ex-colleagues and sort out Secret Garden City’s crime problem, one punch/kick at a time.

“Four powerful crime syndicates control the city, ruling with an iron fist. To defeat them, you must master a brutal brawling system and build a diverse arsenal of weapons, upgrades, and martial arts techniques, breaking their hold on the streets in a flurry of violence.

As these sinister organisations fall to your fists, tackled in any order you wish, the city is reborn.

The ruined streets become vibrant and full of life, and you can spend gathered resources in shops and restaurants to help your on your quest.

Shape the city to fit your play style, unlocking new weapons, combat moves, and areas to explore. Just don’t take too long: the longer you spend preparing, the stronger your enemies will become.”

Tenjutsu will be out for PC and consoles; no release date has been announced yet, but the gameplay & action look promising if you need a top-down 2D beat-em-up fix.
