Swords

Swords movement

The Swords are a type of melee weapon that appeared for the first time in Boktai 2, being the first melee weapon obtained after the Gun Del Sol was stolen. The movements of swords are horizontal, but in Boktai 3 they can have vertical and central attacks (like Hammers and Spears), if they are properly forged with Solar Smith.

Also in Boktai 3, new types of swords were added, Curved Swords, Katanas, Longswords and Greatswords.
