New game studio Good Catch unveils Black & White Bushido

New console and PC game studios don’t come along every day. But a new one just popped up in London: Good Catch, a new division of global content production firm Endemol Shine Group. Good Catch’s first game is Black & White Bushido.

The game is a two-dimensional samurai sword-fighting brawler for up to four players. It’s like taking the “gentle game of hide and seek and injecting it with razor sharp samurai swords.” Each arena is divided into distinct monochrome sections which the two opposing forces, Team Light and Team Shadow, must use tactically to gain victory. You can lurk in the dark or blend into the light before attacking an unsuspecting enemy.
