Asura's Wrath

Asura's Wrath[a] is a 2012 action video game developed by CyberConnect2 and published by Capcom for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. Taking elements from Hindu and Buddhist mythologies and blending them with science fiction, the game follows the titular character, the demigod Asura, as he seeks revenge on the pantheon of other demigods who betrayed him. The story is presented in the style and format of an episodic series of cinematic scenes, including opening and closing credits, with the gameplay shifting between third-person combat, a rail shooter, and interactive sequences with player input in the form of quick-time event button prompts. Because of its unique style, the game has been described in the media as an "interactive anime". The game was received positively by critics, with many praising the story, but received mixed responses towards the gameplay and "interactive anime" style.
