The Game

A historical fighting game about sword dueling, in which the blades really clash using physics and the characters use motion-captured fencing techniques.

Play as one of many 17th century warriors and use sabers, rapiers, broadswords, and many other blades in single-player campaign or local multiplayer with friends!

Why it is different

The swords really clash and block each other in Hellish Quart using game engine physics.

You can incapacitate your opponent by a single well-timed and measured attack, but first, you have to pass his guard.

The Kicker

Hellish Quart is not just realistic sword fighting, it also has a historical setting. The game takes place in 17th century Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth.

The character models are made using 3D scanned clothes, based on 17th-century fashion, and the single-player campaign will be firmly rooted in the realities of life in the region.

You’ll be fighting Zaporozhian Cossacks, Polish Hussars, Crimean Tatars, Swedish Reiters, Turkish Janissaries, French Musketeers, and more.

Real Fencing

Made by one of The Witcher III animators and mocap actors, Hellish Quart uses thousands of motion-captured moves, which are driving active ragdolls and sharp, responsive controls to give you the most realistic fencing experience.

Hellish Quart captures the look and feel of a sword fight.

Who is it for?

Hellish Quart is for players who enjoy classic arcade-style fighting games, realistic sword fighting, historical accuracy, and local 2-player games.
