Battle Blaze is a head-to-head fighting game released on 1 May 1992. Developed by Engineering Application and published by Sammy, it sets itself apart from the crowded 16-bit fight ing genre with a dark, sword-and-sorcery aesthetic. Key Features Weapon-Based Combat: Eschewing traditional martial arts, fighters duel using a variety of fantasy weapons, including broadswords, maces, twin daggers, and claws. The Hero Mode: Features a unique story campaign where players control the hero, Keranis, traveling a map to defeat mind-controlled beast-masters and claim the colosseum throne. Cinematic Art Style: The game features large, imposing character sprites and highly detailed, atmospheric background stages that fit the grim fantasy vibe. Language and Availability Official Status: This game was localized for North America in late 1993. The original Japanese Super Famicom cartridge features the original, unedited regional presentation and serves as a great budget pickup for retro fighting game fans. Fan Translations: Because it is an arcade-style fighting game, the menus and inputs are highly intuitive. No English patch is required to jump straight into the action on a Retron 5. Show more
