200 years ago the Master of Death – Gig – was wreaking havoc on the planet with his three gigantic World Eaters. You learn that Gig was trapped in the sword for a reason. From there you are given a mysterious sword and suddenly taking hold of it, your body is fused with something evil, wicked, twist and damn right cool too, this is Gig. After that you are summoned to the chambers of the village leader, Layna. The story kicks off with the hero/heroine training with his/her good friend. It features the option to do both, though you’ll be saving civilization first because the other path is harder than the hero one. After you’ve entered your name, you are off on a journey to save the world, or destroy it. It doesn’t really alter much apart from the endings, which are slightly different depending on what sex you are. It’s probably because no matter whom you choose the character remains a silent protagonist, so no voice acting was needed. Kicking off the game you get the chance to be a male or female adventurer, this is actually the first time Nippon Ichi have not had a set character for the game. Nippon Ichi brings us a twist on a genre that they know so well, giving us an interesting story, gameplay mechanics and a dude that’s got to be one of the year’s most bad ass characters yet.

Without him it would be one of those usual “protect the world” stories, and we’ve had plenty of them.
Soul nomad and the world eaters paths plus#
That’s pretty much all that needs to be said when someone speaks about Soul Nomad & the World Eaters (which we will call Soul Nomad from now on, as I’m kind of stuck for time, plus I’m now ruler of the world! Mwahaha! Bow down to my might!) Soul Nomad is one of those characters that just make the game what it is.
