In this hack-and-slash adventure styled after Diablo, players revisit ancient China where they battle undead creatures and improve their heroic abilities. Players get to choose from three characters - The Barbarian, The Swordsman, and the Dual-Wield Fighter, each with its own unique strengths and weaknesses. Each hero will use their own unique martial arts abilities to vanquish their foes.

In Blade & Sword, players can chain together combo attacks, easily accessible via hotkeys, as they adventure in a uniquely created world based on Chinese mythology.
