Thanks for the wait guys! We just released a new patch for GOKEN! This hotfix includes the following.

-New Locations for Nimbus Cotton

We added more locations to where players can access with the Nimbus Cotton. Now players can land right in front of visited dungeons.

-Improved Balance in Combat

Made various adjustments for weapons in combat. Some weapons should feel a lot stronger than how they previously did. Find out which one in-game!

-Improved Game Performance

The system has been revamped to greatly improve performance compared to previous versions of GOKEN. Many of the stuttering issues should be fixed with this update if the previous one hadn't!

-Renewed Tattoo System

The Tattoo system has been renewed both graphically and systematically. The screen should make more sense now and customizability has been greatly increased. WARNING The update to the tattoo system required us to reset all ink points. All skills unlocked at the parlor have been reset after this update. (All ink points have been returned to players.)

Other Bug Fixes

Many small bugs have also been fixed, both that have been reported and not. Let us know what you think about this update and tell us what you would like more!

GOKEN seeks to bring back everything that was right about gaming in an action packed open world environment in the form of the good old Action RPG genre and have the old school gamers tremble in nostalgia.

-Scenario-
Long ago, when gods lived amongst people...

There lived a swordsman who was given five swords forged by god himself.

Using these swords, the swordsman brought peace and order to the world.

People called the swordsman, "Wielder of the Five Swords"...

One day, during a fete to praise the gods, the blades of the swordsman turn against the gods for reasons unknown.

One of the gods, Ozone, furious with all his powers, sealed the swordsman away at the top of a mountain now known as Swords Peak.

This tale begins 5,000 years after the battle between the two, near a the small village of Cardina.


-Game Overview-

Seamless open-world game mechanics

While the game features a rather old school “quarter view” mechanic, the map transitions and event scenes, even the combat is all seamless as can be to enhance the overall gaming experience.

Real time strategic action battle system

Utilizing 2 primary attack buttons, users can assign different weapons to each button to create a unique combo that fits the users need as they go. Monsters, bosses and stage gimmicks can require a specific type of weapon at times creating opportunities for users to strategize their best route of approach.

Customizable Tattoo system

Utilizing "tattoos", users are given specific points upon leveling to get the protagonist inked as a form of powering up so it could be built to one’s own. Raising MAX HP and Stamina, learning new and special moves are just a few of many ways players are able to customize their character depending on their play style.
