One of my all time favourite 2D fighters, Samurai Showdown, is getting a 3D remix and you can see a cast list of the warriors involved after the jump.

It looks like the majority of the core stars from the game are making an appearance, it was last century that I last played it so forgive any ommissions that I neglect to mention. The three characters I most enjoyed from the original, Hanzo, Galford and Jubei are all in attendance so I'm happy. The guy I used to play it with all the time as a pre pubescent always played as Ukyo, he of the furious apple cutting, so it's nice to see him too. My only question now is, will Galford have his dog along with him?

The trailer below ends with an Xbox 360 logo and it appears this puppy may be an exclusive, or at least a timed exclusive. Previously I'd only heard of this game as an arcade cabinet so this may be the first news of the game making the jump to home systems.

No word on when this game is making an appearance but expect it sometime after you finish reading this sentence...

...maybe not immediately after.
