The music was also based on traditional Japanese period films and fit nicely with the general feel of the game.
The action was more in tune with Kurosawa samurai films in that strikes were swift and dramatic. Characters wielded weapons unlike other fighting games of the time. Animation and character detail was top notch and the game play was fast and violent. the game was very detailed and featured zoom ins and outs of the action depending on the position of the opponents during the fight. And there's Cham Cham, the kid sister of the first game's Tam Tam (who, in this game, has been magically turned into a monkey).
There's Neinhalt Seiger, a European strongman armed with an arm, it's an oversized, iron gauntlet shaped like a fist. There's Nicotine Caffeine, an eccentric old man who served as master to Haohmaru and Genjuro and taught them the art of fighting. There's Genjuro Kibagami, a samurai warrior who serves as a new rival to established protagonist Haohmaru. Four fresh fighters have arrived to face off against the original cast in this sequel. Big, bladed, vicious swords, claws and spears that made it stand out from the crowd of all those other bare-fisted, fireball-throwing fighters being cranked out by so many of the other companies of the age. A head-to-head versus fighting game that hails from '90s arcades, Samurai Shodown II is the sequel to the game that shifted the focus of the fighting genre by equipping all of its characters.
