Gladiator: Sword of Vengeance
A budget gladiator action-adventure set in declining Rome that swings for historical spectacle but lands with janky combat and repetitive level design.
GamerScout Verdict
Decent historical action-adventure hampered by repetitive design; best for patient gladiator fans on a tight budget.

Every store in this table quotes us in euros, so the EUR figure is the price the seller actually set, not our arithmetic — which is why EUR is also the currency we rank in. We only list an offer here when the store gives us its price in euros, so nothing in this table is a number we invented.
Pick USD, PLN, GBP, CAD or AUD in the header and we convert from EUR at the European Central Bank reference rate — converted amounts are prefixed with ~. Your bank or the store may apply a different rate at checkout. We never hide offers based on where you are: everyone sees this whole table.
We may earn a commission when you buy games through links on this page — at no extra cost to you. It never affects our rankings or verdicts.

About Gladiator: Sword of Vengeance
I spent a couple hours with Gladiator: Sword of Vengeance expecting the worst from a 2017 indie action game, and honestly it's not a complete disaster. The premise is solid: you're a slave-turned-warrior fighting your way through Roman decline to topple a tyrant. Combat is basic hack-and-slash with light RPG progression (loot, skills, gear upgrades), and it works fine in short bursts. The historical Rome setting gives it flavor that most arena brawlers don't bother with. But repetition kills it. Enemy variety is thin, levels blend together, and the whole thing feels like it was stretched too thin across a full campaign. Controller support and cloud saves mean you can grind this on the couch if you're determined, but there's nothing here that justifies extended play. Metacritic's 69 feels about right: technically functional, aesthetically pleasant, mechanically hollow.
