Namco Bandai Games announced today that Samurai
Champlo: Sidetracked for the PlayStation 2 has gone gold.

Drawing heavily from the brash, over-the-top aesthetics of the popular anime series currently airing on the Cartoon Network, Samurai Champloo: Sidetracked” offers gamers a never-before-seen combination of hack-and-slash gameplay and tongue-in-cheek humor set to sterling hip-hop beats. The game is scheduled to be in retail stores April 11th.

The core of the game’s unique combat system lies in the innovative integration of music and linked attacks. The players can choose an array of combos based on the different hip-hop grooves that they can swap at will. Music tracks become collectible, opening an extensive assortment of linked attacks that can be implemented tactically during combat.
