{"product_id":"gauntlet-dark-legacy-xbox","title":"Gauntlet: Dark Legacy | Xbox","description":"\u003cp\u003eA port of the arcade game, \u003cem\u003eGauntlet: Dark Legacy\u003c\/em\u003e is the follow-up to \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.mobygames.com\/game\/3590\/gauntlet-legends\/\"\u003eGauntlet: Legends\u003c\/a\u003e and another installment in the long-running \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.mobygames.com\/search\/?q=Gauntlet\"\u003eGauntlet\u003c\/a\u003e series of hack-and-slash action games. As with all the \u003cem\u003eGauntlet\u003c\/em\u003e games, you play a medieval fantasy character who, along with allies if you have them, fights his or her way through hordes of evil creatures on the never-ending quest for more gold and perhaps even an eventual goal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis version contains the characters and levels from \u003cem\u003eGauntlet: Legends\u003c\/em\u003e, plus the new characters and levels from the \u003cem\u003eDark Legacy\u003c\/em\u003e arcade game, with a few extra levels thrown in.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere are eight characters to initially choose from: the mighty Warrior, the deadly Valkyrie, the quick-footed Archer, the powerful Wizard, the spellcasting Sorceress, the stalwart Knight, the valiant Dwarf, and the chaotic Jester. Although there are similarities between characters from the two games, each character looks and plays differently. In addition, there are eight alternative-modes for these characters to unlock, plus dozens of secret characters to obtain. With a multi-tap, up to four players can play, with rules governing how much they can hurt each other. Unlike the original Gauntlets, the levels you'll face take place in various terrain from forests to mountains to volcanic plains. Many of the monsters are familiar to old fans of the series, but there is some new blood among the ranks of evil, including some rather large foes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnlike the early Gauntlet arcade games, the camera angle varies from location to location, from bird's eye to nearly ground level. The lands, creatures, and heroes are all rendered in 3D. While the graphics have been upgraded, the gameplay is very similar. You basically run around levels, hacking at what seems like unlimited armies of monsters, searching for gold, keys, and health-giving food...as well as a way out of the level. Bosses and other scripted events slow down the repetitious nature of the originals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhile levels can be gained and characters saved, \u003cem\u003eGauntlet: Dark Legacy\u003c\/em\u003e is an action game with some RPG trappings and should not be confused with the more true types from that genre.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdetails class=\"zypher-source-catalog\"\u003e\u003csummary\u003eGame specifications and sources\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003ePlatform\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eXbox\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eRelease date (North America)\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2002-04-24\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eDeveloper\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMidway Games West\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003ePublisher\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMidway Home Entertainment\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eGenre\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAction RPG, Hack and slash\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eESRB\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTeen\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003ePlayers\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1-4 players (local co-op)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eMedia\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDVD-ROM\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSources: \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.mobygames.com\/game\/3982\/gauntlet-dark-legacy\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"\u003eMobyGames\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e","brand":"Xbox","offers":[{"title":"Brand New\/Sealed","offer_id":67875792158953,"sku":"031719300266A","price":172.96,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Complete in Box","offer_id":67875792191721,"sku":"031719300266B","price":87.96,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Game \u0026 Case","offer_id":67875792224489,"sku":"031719300266C","price":82.96,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Custom Case with Game","offer_id":67875792257257,"sku":"031719300266D","price":62.96,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Game Disc Only","offer_id":67875792290025,"sku":"031719300266E","price":57.96,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0637\/8179\/8121\/files\/image_2026-11-05_144548250.png?v=1793915174","url":"https:\/\/zyphertradingvideogames.com\/products\/gauntlet-dark-legacy-xbox","provider":"ZypherTrading","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
