"Captivating"
An adaptation of Kentaro Miura's manga, the game embraces its dark, bloody medieval imagery. Dented armour, battlefields strewn with corpses, monstrous demons and gothic architecture bathe in an earthy, twilit palette. The art direction owns the brutality of the original line, mutilated bodies and great blades in the foreground of a hard, hopeless world.
The story follows Guts, a mercenary marked by a curse that draws demons to him. Faithful to Miura's saga, it retraces the rise and fall of the Band of the Hawk, Griffith's betrayal and the sacrifice that condemns the hero to an endless hunt. A dark epic of vengeance and rage, the tale weaves broken friendship, monstrous ambition and a desperate struggle against a fate crushed in advance.

Berserk - Millennium Falcon-hen - Seima Senki no Shou (PS2) price, value & rarity
Is Berserk - Millennium Falcon-hen - Seima Senki no Shou still worth playing in 2026?
An action game from Sammy, Berserk - Millennium Falcon-hen - Seima Senki no Shou adapts the Millennium Falcon arc of the famous dark manga, where you play the swordsman Guts hacking through hordes of enemies and demons with his immense sword, in a brutal action faithful to the work's violence and atmosphere. The fidelity to the manga, the power of the giant sword clashes and the dark atmosphere appeal to fans of Berserk and of mature action. The repetitiveness and a dated production bound the ambition. For a Berserk fan or a fan of dark action, the title keeps a preserved atmosphere and fidelity, in a dated edition.
