The most common form of seppuku for men was composed of the cutting of the abdomen, and when the samurai was finished, he stretched out his neck for an assistant to sever his spinal cord by cutting halfway into the neck.

Samurai Warriors: Chronicles Z/Xtreme Legends" are playable in this game. There is a story mode that follows all the events in "Samurai Warriors", there are no separate story lines for game characters however game characters that star in the battle can be played. The two new officers, the main Hero and the main Heroine, are brand new original characters to the series, fully customizable by the players. The player will use either of them for all of the game (unless they replay the stage in which case all unlocked characters can be chosen), while switching control to the other returning officers during battles.
