Prices
Each in the currency that store quoted — not converted: the gap between two rows is the publisher's pricing, not an exchange rate.
Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 9.22/day in the week to Aug 4 → 18.43/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 23 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 14 places towards #1, and the 2,515 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

Que jogo lindo! Muito foda como o jogo abraça a gameplay e torna ela parte da narrativa, deixando que ela se torne algo diegético assim como a soundtrack. Esse é provavelmente o jogo mais cinematográfico que joguei, não necessariamente no sentido visual (apesar de ser LINDO) mas sim na narrativa, na montagem e na profundidade de cada personagem. 10/10

I am a very one-and-done person when it comes to video games. I have a library full of titles that I've barely touched, or which I've only played through a single time. Katana Zero is an exception, and at this point I've lost track of how many times I've revisited it. It is incredibly enjoyable to play. The mechanics feel excellent and you can easily loose yourself in a kind of flow. That alone would be enough to earn this title a positive review from me, but on top of having satisfying controls, this game is also lovely to look at. The art and music is phenomenal, the style is off the charts, and the story provokes fascinating questions about the nature of time, perception, and mortality. For reasons that I'm not completely sure about, I also find this to be a deeply comforting game, paired well with a stormy evening, hot chocolate, and mac n' cheese. Which is odd, because the plot of this game is deeply tragic, violent, and often unhappy. However, much like how listening to a sad or aggressive song can sometimes help with a bad mood, playing this video game when I'm bummed out does a lot to make me feel better. The development team also seems to be incredibly passionate about this project, and has been working on a free DLC for several years now. 11/10, would play again (and will)

通關大約4個多小時，但是體感卻覺得不只 後續為了刷成就又多花了3個小時多 <遊玩體驗> 跟其他類似機制遊戲比，他比較不需用花式殺人刷分數，也不能無限制的凍結時間 (例如Supershot或是pedro) 重點還是放在清版的策略上，而且區域清掃的部分有點潛行的感覺，而且其實也算是滿吃操作技術 需要估算翻滾的距離，敵人與敵人之間的間隔，還有揮刀斬子彈的時機等等 砍殺的打擊感做的超級好，不論是砍到子彈時清脆的打鐵聲，還是砍到敵人的手感，都會讓人滿上癮，大幅減少了重複遊玩的煩躁感 腳色本身移動的感覺也很獨特，某些地方讓我想到死亡細胞，技術夠好想要弄成跑酷遊戲也是沒問題，事後的回放畫面也算是鼓勵變相在鼓勵這件事 前中期難度都還算偏簡單，靠直覺玩或是換一條路走就會過了，真的想純靠預知和手速不開技能也不失為一種更刺激爽快的玩法 但後期會突然開始變得容易卡關，不順的時候可能還會想暫時關掉遊戲，好在這款的重來速度真的是數一數二快，搞不好比Celeste還要外一些 拿槍的敵人多到一開始有點難想像自己能通關，必須好好的思考自己的策略才行 雖然感覺設計上並不會限定只有一條路是最佳解，但是有在正確時機使用正確的道具，絕對可以讓你少掉很多壓力 有時候多換個方法來跑，就會不知不覺通關了，那個成就感真的是很有感 <劇情> 前面關卡內容有點類似會稍微感覺沒那麼有趣，主要是讓我們熟悉操作，不過畢竟也是為了讓你一步步融入腳色情境中所以還算合理 後面各種虛實交錯，搭配獨特的畫面錯亂效果，確實滿有他獨特的味道 就像他的封面一樣，日系武士配上鮮豔的賽博科技 另外某些關卡也做出了幾種完全不同模式的玩法，以這個遊玩時數來說我覺得已經是非常豐富的作品了 雖然通關完感覺也還沒完全理解它的劇情，但我覺得氛圍感和腳色設定確實有到位 更何況還有速通模式，跟一些小彩蛋等等 整體遊戲性對得起他的價位!
Locked...I should come back in a few months.
Katana Zero is one of the best games i've ever played, if not the best. The gameplay, the story. I cant truly encapsulate it in a steam review, so all im going to say is go play it.
katana ZERO, это очень интересная игра, которая вызвала у меня весь спектр эмоций, также у меня люто горело очко при получении ачивки на золотую медаль, но я её смог получить, как говориться получил золотую медаль в katana ZERO, как насчет того, чтобы получить золотую медаль за учебу в школе. ахуеная игра 10 шприцов хроноса из 10
好玩
Por MUCHO uno de mis juegos favoritos, es una locura de juego y también una locura que con una historia corta se haya convertido de uno de mis juegos favoritos. La jugabilidad es rapidísima y sumamente adictiva, cada bendito nivel se siente como un rompecabezas donde tenés que aprender de lo que te equivocaste y encontrar la forma de superar cada situación. El pixel art y la ambientación cyberpunk/neón y la banda sonora son por mucho las cosas más top del juego. Tan llamativos y originales que se vuelven inolvidables cada canción y cada nivel. También me encanto la historia: al principio parece tan simple, pero cada vez se vuelve más interesante y te deja con unas ganas de saber y explorar más ese mundo. Los diálogos y las decisiones asi cómo los personajes(la mayoria super carismaticos) tienen tanta personalidad que aunque la historia dure poco te terminas encariñando con algunos sino es con la gran mayoria(incluso los antagonistas). Es corto, sí, pero está tan bien hecho que se disfruta muchísimo de principio a fin además de ser bastante rejugable. Sinceramente es de esos juegos que terminás y automáticamente querés volver a jugarlo. Totalmente recomendado comprarlo.
Un jeu qui brille par son gameplay frénétique et son scénario psychédélique. Pépite !
