The leaked video showcases Blade wielding his sword in close combat, including a sequence where he clashes blades with an opponent.

Another moment shows him charging his sword before delivering a decisive strike, able to eliminate an enemy instantly.
Later in the footage, Blade switches tactics to use his hunting gun, firing a barrage of bullets that quickly dispatches foes. RivalsInfo cautions that some parts of this footage may be edited before the official release, so what we see might not be the final version.
