Gladius is a PlayStation 2 RPG from LucasArts built around tactical gladiator combat. The game follows Ursula and Valens as they recruit, train, and customize a school of warriors for arena battles across the lands of Gladius.
- Cleaned, tested, and guaranteed to play. The disc play surface is in nice condition.
- Turn-based gladiator-style combat combines melee weapons, powerful magic, positioning, and character tactics.
- Choose from over 100 characters across 16 different classes for building a customized gladiator school.
- Exploration takes place on a 3D world map with more than 500 encounters.
- More than 15 landscapes and dozens of gladiator arenas provide varied battle settings.
