Bosozoku

Black Emperor is inspired by Bōsōzoku culture, a Japanese youth motorcycle subculture in the 1970s. The influence of the bōsōzoku aesthetic resonates throughout the entire game—the gameplay, visuals, and sound are all intentionally brash, over-the-top, lightning-fast, and exuberant.

Kumabachi SuperWheel controller

Black Emperor features a custom interface we call the Kumabachi SuperWheel controller. Simply roll the wheel up or down to shift your position on the screen. The wheel is responsive and tactile—it feels great, creates exciting gameplay, and attracts players due to both its novelty and its simplicity.
