Samurai Ghost, released in Japan as Genpei Tōma Den: Kan no Ni (源平討魔伝 巻ノ弐 lit. "The Genji and Heike Shooting Demon Tale: Second Volume"), is a 1992 action game released by Namco for the TurboGrafx-16. The game is the sequel to Genpei Tōma Den, and is the first game in the series to be released outside Japan.

[edit] Overview
As with the previous game, the player controls the resurrected samurai Taira no Kagekiyo, defeating demons and monsters across several levels. Given his undead nature, Kagekiyo has access to supernatural powers such as levitation and the ability to cast energy projectiles.
Samurai Ghost has a similar plot to its prequel, in that Kagekiyo fights against Minamoto no Yoshitsune, Saitō Musashibō Benkei, and his arch enemy Minamoto no Yoritomo. In Samurai Ghost, Kagekiyo also faces Minamoto no Yoshinaka (also known as Kiso no Yoshinaka), who commits seppuku when defeated.
