- IMPORTANT UPDATE ON ROGUE SAMURAI – THANK YOU FOR THE JOURNEY! - 22 April 2025
Hey Samurai, I grew up in a small village, and my favorite memories from childhood involve the breeze gently sweeping through lush green fields, making everything look like a painting. Years later, while reading Musashi’s story in Vagabond, I saw a scene that took me right back to those days, sparking the idea behind Rogue Samurai. Because of this personal connection, I put my heart into making the game, but as a first-time developer, I couldn’t fully translate this vision into reality. For this, I truly apologize. We've had an amazing journey together since the launch of Rogue Samurai. Your enthusiasm, feedback, and support have meant everything to our little team. Today, we want to be completely open with you about the game's future. After a lot of thought, we've decided not to continue updating Rogue Samurai.
