==Story differences==

The following is a list of differences between the original manga and the game.

;Chapter 1

*Covers the Zeed and King story arcs.

*Zeed is aware that the man who killed his scouts had seven scars on his chest. His gang invade Lin's village looking for Kenshirō.

*Spade kills Misumi while Ken and Bat are still in Misumi's village.

*There's an alternate scene where Spade kills Misumi during his first encounter with Ken and steals the seed rice. If this happens, the later battle at Misumi's village will not occur and Ken and Bat will head directly to Southern Cross.

*[[Diamond]] and [[Club]] were omitted from the game.

*There's a scene where Bat infiltrates Shin's palace in order to unlock the front gate for Ken from the other side. If the player failed to save Misumi earlier, then the player must control during this segment and avoid the guards.

* Ken sees Shin only after defeating Heart. Shin stabs the Yuria mannequin before the battle begins.

;Chapter 2

*Covers the Jackal story arc. The [[Golan]] arc is skipped completely.

*[[Johnny]] the bartender employs Ken as a bouncer for his bar.

*Since the Golan arc does not occur in the game, Lin is reunited with Ken by wandering into Johnny's bar in search for him. She brings along [[Taki]], whom she found unconscious in the desert.

*Ken breaks the bedrock dividing the village's well and the water current almost immediately upon his arrival. As a result, the scene where Taki is killed for attempting to steal water from a neighboring village never happens and he survives.

*Toyo is founded fatally wounded after Ken drives away Jackal's gang from her village. The scene where Jackal's lackeys tries to hang the children and stick dynamites on their backs never happens.

*At the village where Ken finds Fox, Jackal is hiding at a nearby building, watching the fight. When Fox calls Jackal for help, Jackal refuses to do so and escapes.

*When Ken chases Jackal at [[Villainy Prison]], Jackal calls upon his lackeys to run him over with their bike.

*Jackal is killed by being squeezed to death by Devil's hand.

;Chapter 3

*Covers the Kiba Clan and Jagi story arcs.

*Ken and Rei decides to depart to the Kiba Clan's hideout immediately after seeing Mamiya shed tears. Ken confronts Madara before meeting the King of Kiba.

*Mamiya goes by herself to avenge [[Kō]]'s death. When Ken and Rei meet the King of Kiba, she is already taken captive by him.

*When Ken and Rei put themselves in a false state of death, the King of Kiba himself is the one who checks to see if they're dead and he does it alone.

*The elderly man who tries to protect Aki and Mako is shot by Jagi. He never died in the manga.

*Mako's village and the village with Jagi's bust are the same place. In the manga, they were different locations.

*Jagi ignites the gas tank immediately after his battle with Ken begins, covering the ceiling in flames.

;Chapter 4

*Covers the Amiba and Cassandra story arcs.

*Ken returns to Mamiya's village after defeating Jagi. He talks to Rei about his other brothers, Raoh and Toki and then asks Rei to protect Bat and Lin once again.

*If Ken loses the arm wrestling mini-game to Gyūki, then Gyūki and Habu will fight against Kenshirō together.

*Although Habu tells Ken the location of Amiba's hideout, he is not present when Ken actually arrives and what happens to him afterward is left a mystery.

*[[Yū]], the young boy Amiba kills, is accompanied only by his mother. Yū's father never appears.

*Amiba strikes a pressure point on Yū's mother instead of the father. When Ken rushes in to save her, Amiba uses the opportunity to paralyze Ken by striking his ''sen'yo'' point.

;Chapter 5

*Covers from Raoh's invasion of Mamiya's village to the death of Rei.

*Like in the anime, there are more than one thug dressed like [[Seeker]]. When Seeker is defeated, Ken strikes a pressure point on him.

*The generic members of Ken-oh's Invasion Squad resembles the rod-wielding thug that attacks Toki and Mamiya.

*After Rei is wounded, Mamiya goes to and returns from [[Medicine City]] without any trouble. [[Galf]] never appears in the game.

*The entrance to Yuda's room is guarded by watch dogs.

*When Rei fights Yuda, the village is already flooded.

;Chapter 6

*Covers the Souther story arc.

*When Ken is defeated by Souther after the first fight, he regains consciousness only after he is rescued and taken back to Shuh's hideout. He is told about [[Shiva]] and what happened to him after waking up.

*Ken fights Souther in front of the pyramid instead of on top.

*Souther's back-story with [[Ōgai]] is never mentioned.

;Chapter 7

*Covers from the battle between Toki and Raoh and up until Raoh's capture of Yuria.

*[[Kōryū]] does not appear and the [[Ryūga]] story arc is skipped as well.

*Bat and Lin meet Fudoh after he saves them while being chased by bandits.

*Ken kills Hiruka by throwing him into the quicksand he attempted to trap Fudoh in.

*Ken does not injure his eyes after Rihaku's trap is triggered.

;Chapter 8

*Covers the events leading to the final battle between Ken and Raoh.

*Raoh confronts Fudoh by himself.
