Post Description

Die by the Sword is a swordfighting video game developed by Treyarch and published by Tantrum Entertainment (a sub-brand of Interplay Productions) on February 28, 1998. The game allows players to independently command the movement and swordfighting of their in-game avatars; running, jumping and turning with one hand, while simultaneously slashing, stabbing and parrying with the other.

While the game was well received by critics, the PC releases of Eidos's popular Tomb Raider franchise overshadowed and crippled Treyarch's sales figures. In large part, this was due to what are widely viewed as very difficult controls, challenging gameplay and a steep learning curve for novice players.

Die by the Sword also offered deathmatch and cooperativemultiplayer play in its arena mode, where players could stage fights with up to three other players. The lack of a match-making service precluded any significant online community, which, when combined with a poor online interface, mostly relegated the title to local network play only.

The official expansion pack Limb from Limb was released on December 31, 1998 and added another main quest for the single-player campaign, enhanced multiplayer through a selection of significantly more creative arenas, and introduced new playable characters such as the Minotaur.
