About this expansion

Samurai Sword: Rising Sun is an expansion for 3–8 players, with games lasting about 40 minutes, that returns players to the Japanese world of samurai and ninjas.

Designed to make each match even more engaging, this expansion introduces a substantial collection of new content. It brings fresh characters, cards, and powerful weapons to the game, offering players more elements to explore during their sessions.

  • 12 new characters
  • 40 new cards
  • Powerful weapons
  • An additional role card

The additional role card expands the player count, allowing Samurai Sword: Rising Sun to support games with up to eight players. The expansion can therefore accommodate groups ranging from three to eight participants.

Set against its Japanese samurai-and-ninja theme, Rising Sun adds new possibilities to each match without losing sight of the setting that defines it. Whether you are looking for more characters, additional cards, or powerful weapons, this expansion brings all three together in one package.

Released in 2014, Samurai Sword: Rising Sun is a focused addition for players who want to revisit the game with more content and the option to gather a larger group around the table.
