About the Game

A rhythm game where you can play any song thanks to our advanced music analysis system, or create and share custom levels with players around the world. Play as Akemi, a unique samurai girl, and slash through waves of Zombeats to the beat of the music you love.

Play any song in seconds

Import your favorite tracks and jump straight into the action. Syncblade’s advanced music analysis system automatically generates enemies, events, and visual effects based on each song’s rhythm, intensity, and structure, turning every track into a unique challenge.

Multiple difficulty variations are created for every song, making it easy for both newcomers and experienced players to find the perfect level of challenge.

Battle hordes of enemies to the beat

The Zombeats move in perfect sync with the music. Strike at the right moment to maintain your combo, rack up points, and master the rhythm.

Whether you're chasing high scores or simply enjoying your favorite songs, every track becomes a unique experience as you step into the role of the mysterious samurai Akemi.

Create and share custom levels

Fine-tune automatically generated maps or build entirely original levels using the integrated editor. Place enemies, design attack patterns, add visual effects, and craft unique experiences to share with the community through Steam Workshop.

Experience the original soundtrack

In addition to player-imported songs, Syncblade features a selection of handcrafted levels built around the game's original soundtrack.
