As of right now Die by the Blade feels like an early access title marked as a full-fledged release. There's a huge ways in which the game can be improved. Here's hoping that by the time of console ports developers will turn their project into something much better.

Die by the Blade has some good ideas and at the best moments it works, but it struggles to find a perfect balance between all its elements and, above all, offers a horrible camera that ruins confrontations. Add to that a skimpy number of modes and a less-than-excellent technical component, and the result is a game that tries but doesn't go all the way. It's cheap, sure, and we're sure the idea of a fighting game in which you die on the first hit intrigues, but genre fans will be weirded out by the fact that the combos are secondary and that there are such big delays between one action and the next.

A straightforward 1v1 samurai fighting game with very little content on its bones. Fine if you just want some quick and fun matches against friends, but there's not enough here to hold interest for long.
