What Katana Zero is

The premise, in the publisher's words
In a rain-soaked, neon-lit metropolis still scarred by war, Subject Zero is a katana-wielding assassin who can slow time and glimpse moments before they happen. Plagued by amnesia and haunting nightmares, he carries out contract killings handed down by his enigmatic psychiatrist, who doubles as his handler and supplies the mysterious drug that fuels his abilities. As Zero pieces together fragments of his forgotten past, he crosses paths with a young girl in his building, a rival swordsman, and other dangerous figures, growing increasingly certain that the people directing his kills are hiding the truth from him.

It is played from a side view perspective. Its themes are action. It is a single-player game with no multiplayer component. There are 22 achievements to unlock.

How long it takes, and what that costs
The main story runs about 5.8 hrs. Completing everything takes closer to 14 hrs, roughly 2.4 times the length of the critical path.
What you need to run it
The minimum specification calls for Intel Pentium E2180 (2 * 2000) or equivalent, 1 GB RAM and GeForce 7600 GT (256 MB). At 1GB of RAM, it will run on essentially any working PC — that is below what a budget laptop ships with today. Both tiers are compared side by side on the requirements page, and you can check your own parts against them without installing anything.
What it launched against
Katana Zero launched on 18 April 2019, within three weeks of Days Gone, Anno 1800, Borderlands Game of the Year Enhanced and Mortal Kombat 11. It reviewed better than all of them. It arrived 6 years into the Xbox One's life, so it was built for hardware developers already knew well.
Released around the same time: Days Gone, Anno 1800, Borderlands Game of the Year Enhanced, Mortal Kombat 11.
