Asura's Wrath is an action game where the player controls Asura , one of the eight elite demigods. He leads a legion to fight against a race of beasts called Gohma who roam Earth, known as Gaea in the game. The emperors who rose as leaders of Shinkoku Trastrium, a civilization that unified all nations, serve Asura . Demigods derive their power from mantra, a source powered by the emotion of mortals. However, the civilization drained the planet of its resources and the Gohma was a natural phenomenon to combat the power of Shinkoku Trastrium.

The game starts when the Gohma attack Asura's orbital space station, Karma Fortress, and specifically a giant laser known as Brahmastra. The main story is split up into three parts with 18 episodes in total. These follow the style of an anime series with opening and ending credits, including cut-scenes and a preview of the next part of the story at the end.

The gameplay involves large parts of third-person fighting games with a focus on melee combat. Asura has different attacks that can be chained into combos. Heavy attacks cause him to overheat however and cannot be used continuously. There are dive attacks to engage from the air, dash to break through shields and a quick recovery attack to reduce damage after being hit.

The game also features rail shooter sequences where Asura soars through the skies. In those sequences movement is limited to a fixed axis for the area shown on the screen and the camera rotates automatically. The game has many cinematic events that require direct input from the player, known as quick-time events.

The quick-time events are rated based on accuracy and speed, and even during cinematics missing them can cause Asura to die or lose a significant amount of health. These events appear during gameplay but also during static cinematics or flight sequences.
