Deadliest Warrior: Ancient Combat Review | MetalArcade.Net

Deadliest Warrior: Ancient Combat is a very unique game. Judging from screenshots or even a brief glimpse of gameplay, it would seem as though it’s a traditional fighter. Play a bit longer, however, and you’ll discover a game that doesn’t take itself too seriously; a testosterone fueled battle to the death (twice!), where one thrust of a sword can sever limbs or decapitate. Where one arrow thrown from afar can pierce an eye and end a match instantaneously. This game is a cartoonish, hilarious, awesome homage to violence. If you’re looking for a weapons-based fighter with a huge amount of depth, such as SoulCalibur, look elsewhere. If you’re looking for a fun, arcadey, blood-soaked fighter where the tide of battle can truly turn in an instant, this is your game.
