Samurai Shodown 64: Warriors Rage, known as in Japan, is a 3D fighting game produced by SNK for its Hyper Neo Geo 64 system. It is the follow-up to the original Samurai Shodown 64 on the same platform. A PlayStation game was released as part of the same series; despite using the Warriors Rage subtitle in America, it is a different game than 64: Warriors Rage. Samurai Shodown! 2 on the Neo Geo Pocket Color is a 2D adaptation of this game, and a sequel to Samurai Shodown! on the Neo Geo Pocket which was a monochrome adaptation of Samurai Shodown IV.
All 11 of the base playable characters from 64 return in Warriors Rage, as do the boss characters Gandara and Yuga. The game also adds seven new characters: Asura, Taizan Morozumi, Karakuri Hanma, Enja Kazuki, Suija Sogetsu, and the variant characters Shadow Asura and Half-Shaded Shiki.
In Japan, Game Machine listed Samurai Shodown 64: Warriors Rage on their November 15, 1998 issue as being the second most-successful arcade game of the month.[1]
