Story
This game begins shortly before the Battle of Thermopylae where players controls Leonidas, fighting through scenes from both the movie and comic franchise. Armour can be upgraded, as can weaponry and stats as rewards when players are done with levels to help on later ones. The player battles through hordes of Persian warriors including slaves, spearmen, archers, Immortals, Persian champions, two Persian generals, Mardonius and Hydarnes II. The action is furthered when the Spartan army forms a phalanx formation. This is used to fight not only even more Persians, but giant beasts such as elephants also. And as this game keeps progressing, Leonidas soon gains this ability to wield more than one sword and change between many weapon styles.
