Based on the Spike documentary TV series Deadliest Warrior, this game allows players to take control of various warriors from different time periods, utilizing their own unique set of weapons, armor, and fight styles. It was first released as a downloadable title for the Xbox 360’s Xbox Live Arcade on July 14, 2010, and later for the PlayStation 3.

Deadliest warrior is a fighting game that pits two warriors from different time periods and locations in head-to-head combat in an open arena. The game drew inspiration from the 1997 Bushido Blade developed by Bergsala Lightweight, another 3D weapons-based fighting game that utilizes a more realistic approach to combat. Developed by Pipeworks Studios and published by Spike Games.
