This collection gathers swords inspired by the most iconic video games, the blades that fans instantly recognise from decades of gaming history. These are unofficial tribute pieces created for collectors and cosplayers, recreating legendary in-game weapons in real steel, from slim heroic longswords to massive oversized greatswords.
The blades that inspire this collection
A handful of video game swords have become cultural landmarks, and our tribute pieces draw on the styles fans ask for most:
- Heroic straight swords in the spirit of the legendary blade from The Legend of Zelda, widely called the most iconic video game sword ever made.
- Oversized greatswords echoing the enormous slab-style blade from Final Fantasy, a fan favourite for its sheer scale.
- Curved and ornate fantasy swords from action and role-playing games, including our dedicated Elden Ring inspired swords.
Display piece or functional blade
Most video game swords are made as detailed display and cosplay pieces in stainless steel, chosen for their bold shapes and low upkeep. Some are offered as functional forged blades with a full tang for collectors who want a sword they can handle. Check each product description, and for the standards behind our forged blades see our battle-ready swords.
Choosing your video game sword
Decide whether you want a display centrepiece or a blade to handle. Oversized game swords in particular are almost always display and cosplay pieces, since their scale makes them impractical to swing. For cosplay, prioritise an accurate silhouette, clean paint or plating, and a rattle-free hilt. Fans should also explore our Witcher inspired swords and wider fantasy inspired swords.
Caring for your sword
Stainless display blades need only a dust and an occasional wipe with a soft cloth, while functional carbon-steel blades need a thin film of oil and dry storage to prevent rust. Mount display pieces on a secure bracket away from damp. Every sword ships free worldwide with duties covered and a 30-day return window.
These are fan-made tribute pieces inspired by various video games and are not official or licensed products.
