- Prehistory: A tribesman comes of age in a world without words.
- The Wild West: A wanderer with a bounty on his head fights for his life.
- Imperial China: A kung fu master searches for a worthy successor.
- Twilight of Edo Japan: A shinobi undertakes an important secret mission.
- Present Day: A martial artist strives to become the strongest there ever was.
- The Near Future: A youth with psychic powers takes a stand against evil.
- The Distant Future: A newly built robot is swept up in a tragedy in space.
Featuring remastered music from original composer Yoko Shimomura and produced by Takashi Tokita (the director of the original game), this remake retains everything that players loved about the original while also being accessible to newcomers.
