games-ps2 genji-dawn of the samurai Manuale Utente

A young swordsman who is only 
sixteen years old and the son of
Yoshitomo Minamoto, the late
leader of the Minamoto clan who
fell during the Heishi Rebellion.
However, Yoshitsune never knew
this. Instead, he came of age after
a lonely childhood at the 
remote, sacred mountain 
shrine Mt. Kurama.

A great destiny awaits Yoshitsune. 

Yoshitsune wields a katana in 
either hand, and overwhelms his 
enemies with superhuman speed and
agility. Using graceful, dance-like
motions, he swiftly combines his
attacks into long, devastating chains
that overwhelm his enemies. 

A warrior-monk who stands seven feet

tall and has the strength of a giant.

Benkei uses his superhuman strength 

to pulverize his enemies with a giant 

war club that is taller and heavier 

than most full-grown men.  

Even though they were defeated in 

the Heishi Rebellion, Benkei dreams of 

the day when the Minamoto clan might return to power.

The Amahagane bring Yoshitsune and Benkei together through a great

duel. Although Benkei loses to Yoshitsune, in doing so he realizes

his life’s true purpose. He swears to protect the young

Minamoto, and fight by his side 

as a brother in arms. 

Benkei has the ability to attack with either his war 

club or his fauchard, and may switch freely between

the two in combat. His club performs powerful 

crushing blows by charging energy, while the 

fauchard sweeps enemies away with broad swings.
