Fireplace Games has announced that En Garde! has slashed its way to PC via Steam. Budding swashbucklers can get in on the action for $19.99 and leverage a sweet 10% discount for the first week of release.
Over 50,000 players tried out the demo during Steam Next Fest in June and developers want potential players to understand what makes the game so special. To do so, the team has released an all-new trailer that showcases epic swordplay with a side of panache.
Features include
- Fencing with Flair – Parry, riposte and lunge your way to victory! Fight with style to fill your Panache Meter and unlock special skills! But you’ll need more than your sword to win the day…
- Adapt and Improvise – Challenging, ever-changing fights push you to rely on your cunning and acrobatics to disturb your enemies. Learn their weaknesses to toy with them and express your fighting style.

- Arena Mode – Unlock zany game-changing modifiers and new fight situations in the arena mode. Play and replay randomized scenarios to test your skill against waves of enemies!
- Theatrical Characters – A flamboyant cast dazzles the screen! Adalia and her rivals react to each of your actions, exchanging witty one-liners during the flow of the fight.
