Boreal Blade is a multiplayer melee fighter set in the Nordic mythology-inspired world of Norvalg. Players create a warrior and take part in arena battles against other players.
Combat centers on directing attacks and blocks, moving weapons and characters freely, and using tactics and maneuvers. Players can fight with one- or two-handed weapons, a weapon and shield, polearms, or unarmed, and can throw battle items.
The game offers team battles, a banner attack-and-defense mode, and free-for-all Deathmatch, where the first player to 20 kills wins. Players can customize their warrior’s appearance and equipment, and choose among three armor classes with different strengths and weaknesses.
Some reviewers enjoy the combat system, especially the importance of attack angles and timing, and describe matches with friends as fun and absorbing. Others say it is difficult to find players, report trouble connecting to servers, or criticize the lack of bots and a campaign or story mode.
