Sword Legacy: Omen is a turn-based tactical RPG that provides a dark, brutal reimagining of the Arthurian Legend. Playing as Uther Pendragon, you must fight a path of vengeance across the realm of Broken Britannia to avenge your fallen lord and recover the lost sword, Excalibur. Uther won’t be fighting alone as along your journey you will be joined by a band of misfit fighters, each equipped with their own unique set of fighting skills. Explore the world and engage in challenging battles where you must use tactics to play to your hero’s strengths while exploiting your enemy’s weaknesses.
Combining a rich world with a striking, cartoon-aesthetic and brutal combat, Sword Legacy: Omen will take you on a journey through a war-torn land where Uther is dared to fulfil the legendary prophecy of Excalibur and must face legions of foes and gruesome bosses. From the grueling blizzards of Northumbria to the dark and mysterious Wessex you must be prepared to fight for the redemption that you seek.
Long live the legacy!
