Wulverblade Slashes Its Way Onto Steam And PS4
Darkwind Media and Fully Illustrated introduce Wulverblade, a bloody brawler set in ancient Britannia. The Romans are trying to take the homeland of Caradoc, Brennus and Guinevere — but they’ll have to get through them first. They’re angry and have literal axes to grind! Play as any of the three and carve up the Romans as quickly as possible.
Wulverblade is based on a real historical battle between the Roman army and the northern Brittanian tribe of the Caledonii. “[The game] contains enough historical facts and raw combat to feel like the real thing – and it even features drone videos shot in the actual locations,” says Michael Heald, creative director. “Sure, it’s stylized – but the fighting was that brutal and soldiers in the 9th Legion deserved to get their butts kicked by the Caledonii.”
“I dare say that playing Wulverblade has therapeutic value – and you’ll even learn a thing or two about Britannia’s gruesome past.”
