“We are committed to introducing great games to Singapore’s Xbox community, especially games from Japanese publishers,” said Mr Alex Chua, Product Marketing Manager for Microsoft Singapore’s Home & Entertainment Division. “Over the next few months, Singapore gamers can look forward to a slew of great games that will enhance the Xbox experience like never before.”

The game takes place in an alternative version of Medieval Japan, in which war between the Yamato clan and the Shogunate has led to widespread civil disorder and despair. Taking advantage of the chaos, the evil Monkan, a high Buddhist priest, gathers a rebellion force made up of specters drawn from the supernatural world. The Monkan forces already occupy the ancient capital and have further ambitions, but are opposed by the Izumo order that controls the nation’s Shinto shrines. To prevent the Monkan forces from taking over Japan, the Izumo dispatch the warrior monk Shinato to the ancient capital to eliminate them. In order to successfully fight the powerful Monkan, Shinato is vested with the ancient power of Orochi, which had previously been suppressed by the Izumi order.

“Magatama” is will be launched in Singapore in late November, and will be priced at S$69.90
