Storyline:

In a dystopian future ruled by the tyrannical Grandmaster Meio, the elite ninja organization known as the Striders dispatches its most skilled assassin to end his reign. That agent is Hiryu, a master of stealth and swordsmanship, sent alone into the sprawling, heavily fortified metropolis of Kazakh City to carry out his deadly mission. Slipping past the Grandmaster's forces, Hiryu must cut a path through legions of soldiers, machines, and lethal defenses that stand between him and his target. Retelling the core saga of the Strider legend, the tale follows one lone warrior's relentless infiltration of an oppressive empire, as he draws ever closer to a confrontation with the ruthless despot at its heart.
