Daikatana (japanisch für „großes Schwert“, eine traditionelle Waffe der Samurai) ist ein vom Entwicklerstudio Ion Storm unter der Leitung von John Romero entwickeltes Computerspiel aus dem Genre der Ego-Shooter. Die Entwicklung des ursprünglich für 1997 angekündigten Spiels verlief problematisch und verzögerte sich unter mehrfacher Änderung des Veröffentlichungstermins bis 2000. Die schon während der Entwicklungszeit zunehmend ablehnend eingestellte Computerspiele-Presse bewertete Daikatana bei seiner verspäteten Veröffentlichung überwiegend negativ. In Deutschland erschien das Spiel geschnitten. So wurden menschliche Nicht-Spieler-Charaktere durch Roboter ersetzt und Blut grün gefärbt.
