''Samurai Shodown III: Blades of Blood'' is an arcade fighting game developed by SNK and released on November 15, 1995. While it is the third game in the main ''Samurai Shodown'' series, it is the first part of a two-chapter story that is chronologically set between the events of ''Samurai Shodown'' and ''Samurai Shodown II''.
