Muramasa: The Demon Blade has been confirmed for a November 13 in Europe.

The 2D side-scrolling action game looks gorgeous, honestly, and it’s great to know Europe is getting the Wii title.

There’s a full game synopsis over on D’toid should this interest you.

The ESRB has rated Muramasa: The Demon Blade for Wii, and the Teen rating is due to alcohol, violence, and suggestive themes.

Suggestive themes including comments like: “It is customary for women to be sold here” and “You harlot! I poured all my money into your establishment and now you humiliate me”.

One female character wears a kimono that exposes deep cleavage with her breasts frequently sway up and down, apparently.

Day one purchase for September.

Thanks, GoNintendo.

Marvelous is considering porting the likes of No More Heroes and Muramasa: The Demon Blade to Xbox 360 and PS3, Siliconera reports.

In fact, the publisher appears to be looking at moving its large Wii catalogue HD-ward, if a slide in a financial presentation is to be believed.

There’s no detail apart from that, but hopefully there’ll be more soon.

Ignition will publish Vanillaware’s Muramasa: The Demon Blade exclusively for the Wii this September.

The game supports 16:9 widescreen display, two playable characters, a cast of 100 NPCs, lovely 2D art, optional challenge stages and mini-games throughout.

Based on ancient Japanese lore, the game drops players into the Genroku era, ruled by shogun Tsunayoshi, whose desire for power leads to a conflict over the Demon Blades.

Some brand new images for it have popped up over on IGN. You’d be silly not to take a look.

Read on for the press release.
