Updated for the modern generation of gaming PCs, the re-release of Blade of Darkness will give players the chance to experience the relentless gameplay with unique and vicious combat mechanics and role-playing elements that helped to pioneer the “soulsborne” genre and influence so many modern, beloved games.

With its original 2001 release, Blade of Darkness earned kudos for its unrelenting and varied gameplay and unique combat mechanics.

Blade of Darkness brings the classic title to modern PCs with remastered textures, widescreen support up to 4K resolution, new display settings, and and a whole host of quality-of-life and stability improvements. Now players can descend into the madness once again as they devastate all who oppose them, leaving piles of corpses in their wake! 

There has never been a better time to jump into the title that helped pioneer the "soulsborne" genre with punishing gameplay, ferocious combat, and a dark and imposing world to explore.

Video game publisher SNEG announced that Blade of Darkness will be available for PC (Steam and GOG.com) on October 7, 2021!

Bloodthirsty players can get a taste of the game by downloading the Blade of Darkness demo from Steam. 

Features of Blade of Darkness include:

• Pick your Champion of Ianna: Players can choose from up to four playable characters: Tukaram, the Barbarian; Naglfar, the Dwarf; Sargon, the Knight; or Zoe, the Amazon — each with unique strengths, weaknesses, and fighting skills.
• Bloody and Gory Combat: Not for the faint of heart, brave champions must learn devastating combo attacks and use them to slash their foes to ribbons and hack off limbs to use as weapons — who needs a legendary sword when an opponent’s femur will do the trick?
• A Dark & Detailed Fantasy World: Vicious enemies abound the sinister terrain, eager to keep players from dispersing the chaos of the world. Battle orcs, trolls, golems, demons, skeletons, and scores of malevolent enemy creatures, while exploring treacherous tombs, frozen fortresses, demon spires, deserts, temples, and palaces.
• Interactive Environments: Players can destroy in-game objects with fire or fists as they solve puzzles and disarm traps that combine physics, hydraulic systems, and lethal devices!
• Modern Brutality: Blade of Darkness has been re-engineered to shine on modern PC hardware and operating systems, including widescreen support up to 4K resolution, new display settings, and overall stability improvements. The gameplay content and story are untouched — featuring all the original game’s quirks and charm.

Blade Of Darkness launches for PC (Steam and GOG.com) in October 7, 2021.
