Players will encounter pivotal moments in the story where they can make choices, determining whether to align with or oppose different non-player characters, thus influencing the narrative. The game will take players through historically significant cities, such as Yokohama, Kyoto, and Edo, as well as rural areas. The game features various modes of transportation, such as horseback riding, grappling hooks, and gliders, for quicker traversal.
