Sword of the Berserk: Guts' Rage

Hack-and-slash brawler where you control Guts, a swordsman wielding an oversized blade called the Dragon Slayer. Combat centers on building up a rage meter—once full, you enter Berserk mode for faster, more damaging attacks. Levels push you through dark fantasy settings filled with monsters you'll hack apart in close quarters. The game adapts a manga storyline, so expect named characters and cutscenes between fights. Encounters lean heavily on timing dodges and chaining combos rather than complex movesets. Guts moves deliberately; this isn't a fast-paced action game. You're trading mobility for heavy hits. If methodical sword combat and grim atmosphere sound better than acrobatic combos, this delivers exactly that.
