Our take on BLADESTORM: Nightmare

The bounce point arrives when battlefield control expands beyond a single fighter. Players must switch among as many as four squads and coordinate forces of up to 200 troops, while those seeking a strictly historical campaign encounter dragons and cyclops in Nightmare mode.

What is BLADESTORM: Nightmare?

BLADESTORM: Nightmare is an action game set during the Hundred Years’ War.

Players become mercenaries, lead squads of footmen, bowmen, horsemen, elephant troops, cannon units, and siege weapons, and guide their side across changing battlefields. Players can switch among four squads and combine them into forces of up to 200 troops for coordinated attacks and combos. The free-mission story covers English and French viewpoints and includes historical figures such as Joan of Arc and Edward, the Black Prince.
