Knights Contract is an action game pairing a mercenary with a witch against beasts in a stylised medieval Europe. The duo concept is genuinely original, but combat and camera betray a really tight budget. A curiosity for genre fans.

Description
Dark fantasy action RPG with a witch contractually bound to the hero. Published by Namco Bandai in 2011 in Asia, Europe, Japan and the US. Duo combat blending sword strikes and witch spells, gothic atmosphere and oversized bosses. Japanese production by From Software.
The American and Asian pressing of Knights Contract, a Game Republic action title where an immortal executioner and a resurrected witch move through a dark tale of fantastical Europe. A mixed reception and thin distribution made it an uncommon title, especially in this regional edition on a region-locked console. Its interest lies in this relative scarcity of a niche game with gothic flair rather than in broad renown.
