Review: Fantastic game. I completed this is in two nights ... - Fantastic game. I completed this is in two nights and loved every minute of it. You get to play as different characters and the story to the game is so interested you don't skip it. Review: Badhiya game hai - Agar God of war pasand aata hai to ye bhi pasand aayega. ## Features - The Heavenly Sword itself can transform into three distinct weapons, each with its own accompanying fighting stance used by Nariko to vary combat styles. - The combat engine can scale up from sophisticated one-on-one encounters to one-on-many, where enemies employ intelligent squad-based dynamics, right up to combat against battalions pushing real-time gameplay and (AI) to unprecedented new levels. - The physics-based combat allows players to sweep debris against opponents, kick tables to halt an oncoming surge of fighters, smash the enemy into the scenery, or throw bodies into other enemies using “aftertouch” controls. - Heavenly Sword provides a wide range of objects & weaponry including rapid fire crossbows and massively damaging bazookas. - Coupled with real-time story evolvement and amazing set-pieces, Heavenly Sword feels like a blockbuster action movie that takes combat gameplay to new heights. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B000K9OP2A | | Best Sellers Rank | 35,530 in PC & Video Games ( See Top 100 in PC & Video Games ) 806 in PlayStation 3 Games | | Customer reviews | 4.3 4.3 out of 5 stars (396) | | Is discontinued by manufacturer | Yes | | Item model number | 98132 | | Language | English | | Product Dimensions | 17.15 x 13.97 x 1.91 cm; 136.08 g | | Rated | Ages 16 & Over | ## Images ![Heavenly Sword (PS3) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71jRQx1LdHL.jpg) ![Heavenly Sword (PS3) - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71kqznsxyoL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: I only have dual shock 3 controllers, not sixaxis. can i still play this game?** A: Yes **Q: Is this the black label first edition?** A: Yup indeed **Q: does this game have any dlc content?** A: No **Q: Will it work on ps4 ?** A: No. A major flow in the PS4 system is that it is not backwards compatible.

I completed this is in two nights ... *by S***A on 9 December 2016* Fantastic game. I completed this is in two nights and loved every minute of it. You get to play as different characters and the story to the game is so interested you don't skip it. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Badhiya game hai *by S***. on 12 December 2023* Agar God of war pasand aata hai to ye bhi pasand aayega. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The PS3’s Forgotten Cinematic Masterpiece *by M***W on 4 January 2026* If you are a collector of PS3 gems or a fan of character-driven action, here is the professional breakdown of this "Hidden Masterpiece." The Performance: Acting Ahead of Its Time The standout feature of Heavenly Sword isn't the combat—it’s the motion capture. Using the expertise of Andy Serkis (who plays the villainous King Bohan), the facial animations and vocal performances were years ahead of their competitors. The nuances in Nariko’s expressions and Bohan’s theatrical madness create a level of immersion that many modern AAA titles struggle to replicate. It remains one of the most "human" games on the platform. The Combat: The Tri-Stance System Unlike God of War, which relies heavily on combos and jumping, Heavenly Sword utilizes a unique Stance System: Speed Stance: Fast, dual-blade attacks. Range Stance: Linked blades that clear crowds. Power Stance: Heavy, single-blade strikes that break guards. The flow of combat is rhythmic and satisfying, focusing on countering and stances rather than button-mashing. On the DualShock 3, the lack of a dedicated "jump" button feels strange at first, but you quickly realize the game is built entirely around ground-based martial arts and cinematic "Quick Time Events" (QTEs). PROS Visual Splendor: For a 2007 title, the environments and character models are stunning. The scale of the "Nariko vs. the Army" battles still feels epic. Elite Voice Acting: Andy Serkis delivers one of the most entertaining and terrifying villain performances in gaming history. Innovative Sixaxis Control: The "Aftertouch" system—where you tilt the controller to guide arrows or debris in slow motion—is surprisingly fun once you master it. Strong Protagonist: Nariko is a brilliantly written, tragic hero whose connection to the titular sword feels earned and heavy. Orchestral Score: The soundtrack is sweeping and cinematic, perfectly matching the "Asian-Fantasy" aesthetic. CONS The "Short" Problem: The game is famously brief. You can finish the entire story in about 6 hours, which left many fans wanting more. Frame Rate Dips: Because it pushed the PS3 so hard, there are noticeable frame rate stutters during massive crowd scenes. Sixaxis Learning Curve: While "Aftertouch" is cool, some players find the mandatory motion-control segments (like the cannon sequences) frustratingly difficult. Linearity: There is almost no exploration; it is a straight-shot corridor of combat and cutscenes. Overall Input Heavenly Sword is a cult classic for a reason. It was Ninja Theory’s first real step into the "Cinematic Action" genre, and it remains a beautiful, tragic, and exciting ride. While it lacks the length of a modern RPG, it makes up for it with sheer quality and heart. It is a vital piece of the PS3’s history and a must-play for anyone who appreciates digital acting. Reviewer Pro-Tip: If you find the Sixaxis controls for the arrows or cannons too difficult, you can actually turn off motion controls in the settings and use the analog sticks instead! This makes the sniper levels significantly more manageable for those who prefer traditional controls. Also, make sure to watch the "Making Of" videos included on the disc—the work Serkis did for this game changed motion capture forever! Who is this for? Fans of Hellblade or God of War, collectors of PS3 exclusives, and anyone who loves high-quality storytelling and acting in games. ## Frequently Bought Together - Heavenly Sword (PS3) - Demon'S Souls (PS3) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ae/products/94472636-heavenly-sword-ps3](https://www.desertcart.ae/products/94472636-heavenly-sword-ps3) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Arab Emirates* *Store origin: AE* *Last updated: 2026-07-08*
