Blade of Darkness, a re-release of the classic fantasy action adventure title, cuts its way to Xbox and Playstation today. Previously known in some regions as Severance: Blade of Darkness, the modern version will receive an HD treatment on PC and soon also on Nintendo Switch. Prepare for a classic tale of sword and sorcery and venture forth on any system!
Chaos seizes the World. The Central Kingdoms are no longer secure as the King’s Knights can’t withstand the dangers looming over the realms. Orcs swarm the roads and strange beasts search for prey in the gloom. Hope lies in legends as Ianna, mother of all living beings, once gave a mighty sword to a foregone hero to venture into the abyss and defeat evil. But those tales are history now. The world needs a new champion, who will wield the blade and destroy the enemy… this time forever.
