Is Star Gladiator - Episode I - Final Crusade still worth playing in 2026?
A 3D weapon based fighting game from Capcom, Star Gladiator pits warriors wielding energy blades in a science fiction mood, the studio's first foray into armed 3D versus. The weapon focused combat system, the original cast and the visual energy bring real personality. The stiff period 3D and an imperfect balance place it a notch below the genre's heavyweights. A singular fighting game to recommend for fans of armed 3D versus and Capcom curiosities of the early PlayStation.
