Bladestorm: Nightmare

Bladestorm: Nightmare is an action game set during the Hundred Years War. You play as a mercenary, leading squads of fighters across changing battlefields and guiding your side toward victory. You can experience the conflict from both the English and French viewpoints, or take on a new threat in Nightmare mode.

Lead your squads

You command squads ranging from footmen, bowmen and horsemen to elephant troops, cannon troops and siege weapons. Each squad has unique actions, and AI guides every allied and enemy trooper during battles. You can switch between up to four squads to act across a wider area, or combine them into an army of up to 200 men for concerted attacks and combos based on the attacking squad.

The Hundred Years War

The Hundred Years War story uses a free mission system and lets you meet and interact with historical figures including Joan of Arc and Edward, the Black Prince. In Nightmare mode, England and France unite to fight mysterious monsters, including dragons and cyclops, in an original story set in a different take on the Hundred Years War.

Modes and features

The game includes online multiplayer and a revised character edit mode. On Windows, you can adjust graphics settings such as the number of characters displayed and draw distance to suit your PC. Higher settings use DirectX 11 for improved battlefield graphics and smoother gameplay at a high frame rate, and you can customize the controls.
