Blade & Sword 2: Ancient Legend is an action-adventure RPG set in ancient Chinese mythology. Forty years after the defeat of Emperor Jo, Chiyou’s spirit—suppressed for 3,000 years—stirs again. When monsters devastate Wa-dang Village, a badly injured protagonist is rescued by a local and joins Shen, now a legendary hero, on a journey to defeat monsters and demons.

The story

The events take place forty years after the previous story. Wa-dang has become a busy crossroads for merchants and travelers, and years of peace have left people forgetting the pain of the past. The new disaster brings back that fear, and the people call for the hero to save them. Many passersby die in the monster attacks, including the protagonist’s fellow travelers.

Combat and progression

You fight using a broad skill system, with varied combat skills and spectacular effects. Characters have different attributes and attack styles, including fast moves, powerful fatal strikes and long-range attacks. You can develop your hero, upgrade weapons and move freely using a world-coordinate system.

The game has over 20 battle scenes, alongside full-screen dynamic lighting, a day-and-night cycle, and natural effects such as wind, snow, rain and lightning. This is a port of the original game, not a remake.

Playable characters

The roster includes three characters from the previous game, two new characters, and a hidden character. Each has their own abilities and fighting techniques:

• Swordsman: A balanced, beginner-friendly fighter with good speed and strength, varied attacks, and no major strengths or weaknesses. The Swordsman can use skillful moves, fatal strikes and ranged attacks.
• Great Warrior of Blade: A slow but powerful fighter with high attack, health and stamina. Self-training and practice can permanently raise certain attributes, but the character is vulnerable to enemy attacks and has difficulty performing long combos.
• Double Blade Swordswoman: A fast, agile fighter who can attack accurately, chain combos and use a distinctive leg move. She can use knives to disable enemies by injuring their limbs without killing them, and is the only character with tactical support skills. Her attack power, range and health are low.
• Elder: Specializes in ranged attacks and reducing enemy abilities. Slow attacks, low health and low defense make careful timing and keeping distance important; familiarity with maps and enemies is recommended.
• Hidden character: Unlock this mysterious character by clearing the whole game under certain conditions.
