Ignition Entertainment and SNK Playmore today announced the upcoming European release of Samurai Showdown Anthology for the PSP. The anthology will contain all 6 major titles from this hugely popular franchise, one of the true classics from the 2D arcade era. The 3D versions and RPG spinoff will sadly not be included in this compilation (sorry, completists). The game is set to arrive this winter on the PSP, Wii and PS2 systems.
The very first Samurai Showdown game appeared on the NEO GEO arcade system in July of 1993. The game soon gained a massive following and helped to define the 2D fighting genre with its unique and fast paced gameplay. The title's setting, use of sword weapons and memorable characters marked a departure from other fighters released at that time. Since then, the legend has lived on in numerous sequels, each of which is preserved in all of its glory in the upcoming Samurai Showdown Anthology.
