WHY I WANT IT

I've had this game on my wishlist since October, because swords. I mean, if you've paid attention, I love pirates and I can't stand first person shooters, but I love fighting games. So... logical conclusion is that I'm going to be giddy about a fighting game that focuses on swords. It uses motion capture of real fencing moves, a variety of combatants... what more could I ask for? I don't even care that it's an early access game!

If you agree, you can snag it on Steam here or use this handy widget:

If that isn't enough to pique your interest, then this probably isn't your genre -- and that's okay! Check back next week for another title and let me know what you think of my selection!
