Knight vs Giant: The Broken Excalibur

About this game

During their quest to retrieve the Holy Grail for the venerable wizard Merlin, the noble Knights of the Round Table inadvertently unleash the calamitous Void Giant upon Camelot! King Arthur valiantly leads his Knights into battle, but they are swiftly dispatched by the terrible creature. With the realm’s protectors slain, and the legendary sword Excalibur broken, Merlin weaves a powerful incantation to transport the Void Giant back to the Astral Dimension from whence it came. Unfortunately, the spell doesn’t quite go to plan and the entire kingdom is brought along for the ride…

With the power to revive just one Knight, Merlin resurrects the heroic monarch and promptly tasks him with defeating three colossal aspects of the Void Giant’s soul, each more powerful than the last! To complicate matters, the kingdom’s citizens have been scattered across the dimension and Arthur must rescue them all before Merlin can safely transport everyone home.

In this fantasy action roguelite, you’ll play as King Arthur, and utilise the Broken Excalibur to channel the unique powers of your fallen Knights as you battle through hordes of dire foes and face off against challenging giant bosses. Explore vibrant, procedurally generated dungeons, receive blessings and customise your skills. Rescue the kingdom’s loyal citizens and call upon their unique talents to restore your seat at Castle Camelot to glory!

  Post-Launch Updates Round-up

  Welcome back, brave knights! Since our release in October 2023 we have continued to update Knight vs Giant: The Broken Excalibur adding new updates and quality of life improvements. With that in mind, we have prepared a post-release updates round-up video to share with you all the changes that have been made and features which were added to the game in the past few months. Most importantly, we'd like to thank you for your support and for playing our game since its release last year. We hope you have enjoyed these updates! You can find a breakdown of all the recently added updates below: Unlocking new knight statues is now easier! New knight statues and their associated weapons and skills are now linked to kingdom level.

You can see the effects of these pairings before they choose whether or not to accept Morgana’s offer. The new combinations also change gameplay more dramatically, offsetting greater benefits with higher but more appropriately calculated risks. Challenging Elite enemies have been added! These tougher variants of common minions are equipped with two HP bars as well as deadly attack patterns and cannot be staggered or knocked away. Harness the power of the runes! Dropped by slain elite minions, mini-bosses and giants, these powerful new items grant Arthur temporary stat buffs. Discover 12 new knight blessings!
