Play Knights Of The Round (europe) Online

Capcom released Knights of the Round for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System in 1994, a time when the console was rich with arcade ports and cooperative action games. It stands as a straightforward adaptation of their earlier arcade cabinet, bringing a medieval brawler directly into the living room without much fuss or major alteration.

You control one of three knights; Arthur, Lancelot, or Percival, fighting through screen after screen of bandits, soldiers, and mythical beasts. Your main goal is to defeat the evil Garibaldi by progressing through a linear, side scrolling path. Key mechanics include a simple attack and jump system, a block button to parry incoming strikes, and the ability to level up your character, which improves your armor and changes your weapon's appearance after collecting enough experience from defeated enemies. The pacing is methodical, often pitting you against large groups that require careful positioning, and the difficulty can feel punishing if you rush in. It feels like a deliberate, weighty brawl where every sword swing matters.
