About
A first-person action hack and slash game, *Maken X* involves controlling a sentient sword-like entity called the Maken, which can "brainjack" and switch between multiple characters to navigate levels and engage in melee combat. The story is set on a near-future Earth plagued by natural disasters and geopolitical tensions, where the protagonist Kay Sagami bonds with the Maken after a facility attack and embarks on missions against the responsible group. The game features seven possible endings based on dialogue choices and character interactions, with development involving staff from the *Megami Tensei* franchise and introducing full voice acting for Atlus.
