The game follows the title character, the demigod Asura as he seeks revenge on the pantheon of other demigods who betrayed him. The story is presented in the style and format of an episodic series of cinematic shorts, including opening and closing credits, with the gameplay being integrated into the cinematic where players switch between third-person combat and interactive sequences with player input in the form of quick-time event button prompts. Because of its unique style, the game has been described in the media as an "interactive anime". According to the game's producer Kazuhiro Tsuchiya, Asura's Wrath takes elements from Hinduism and Buddhism and blends them with science fiction, with the main character based on the ever combative and superiority-seeking beings of the same name that are part of the Hindu and Buddhist cosmology.
Asura's Wrath blends Asian mythology with science fiction to tell the story of Asura, one of a pantheon of powerful demigods who wage an endless war to protect their world from a monstrous planetary threat. When his fellow generals turn against him, Asura is stripped of his power, framed for a terrible crime, and cast down after his family is torn apart. Thousands of years later he returns to a world he no longer recognizes, driven by unrelenting fury and a single purpose: revenge against those who betrayed him. Presented in the style of an episodic anime, his journey escalates from battle to impossible battle as Asura channels his boundless wrath against enemies of ever-greater scale.
