The game is presented as an adventure game set with fights arranged in a similar fashion to turn-based role-playing games. The plot follows the titular character, Kyo Kusanagi, who prepares to participate in the next worldwide fighting tournament and learn about the origins of his lineage and his rival's, Iori Yagami. The two were originally rivals until they were cursed by the demon Yamata no Orochi. The player primarily controls Kyo Kusanagi, although several allies often side alongside him to form a team against other AI-controlled ones.
