Samurai Spirits Tenkaichi Kenkakuden (also known as Samurai Shodown VI) is a dream match game which features the entire cast from Samurai Shodown V Special, seven returning characters from Samurai Shodown and Samurai Shodown II, and several new characters added to the Playstation 2 port of the game.

The story is parallel to Samurai Shodown V; Yoshitora decides to find out who the strongest fighter in the world is, so a tournament is then organized with this purpose.

The game is similar to the Samurai Shodown V Special; however, the player is now capable of using one of six different fighting systems, all of which have their own advantages and disadvantages. Items like bombs and rocks can also be picked up and thrown at the enemy.

The game also contains an extensive move list for every character, original and arranged music, and two player versus mode via netplay.
