The Dishwasher: Vampire Smile

Three marks remain. Step into a blood-soaked quest of vengeance where you choose between two lethal protagonists: Yuki, a machine-armed prisoner whose mind teeters on the edge, or The Dishwasher, a relentless, reanimated samurai with an unyielding hunger for justice.

You will face a corrupt trifecta of power—the Banker, the General, and the Judge—as you slice your way through a grim, neo-noir world. Vampire Smile widens the series’ brutal, graphic novel-inspired art style into a fast-paced, combo-driven 2D action platformer where every encounter is a sharp, cinematic beat.

Building on the foundation of Dead Samurai from 2009, this sequel intensifies the action with a focus on chaining attacks, rapid reflexes, and explosive finishing moves. Expect combo-saturated mayhem that rewards timing, precision, and risk-taking as you navigate tight arenas, perilous platforms, and waves of foes.

The game showcases a new engine that pushes violence, violence-driven visuals, and kinetic animation to new extremes, giving each swing, stab, and landing a weighty, visceral feel. Yuki and The Dishwasher each bring distinct playstyles: Yuki’s cybernetic arm actions blend with agile platforming, while The Dishwasher’s spectral blade and brutal melee options unleash devastating sequences that turn opponents into gruesome, stylized carnage.

Encounter designers craft encounters that mix close-quarters brawling with vertical traversal, environmental hazards, and time-sensitive maneuvers. Boss battles against the Banker, the General, and the Judge test your skill, endurance, and strategic use of power-ups and weapons—forcing you to adapt your approach as the narrative threads unfold.

Originally released in 2011 on Xbox 360, Vampire Smile captures the series’ signature dark humor, grotesque charm, and relentless pace, delivering an arcade-inspired action experience that fans of stylish, high-octane combat will remember.
