KnightSword Animation Set (106 Sequences)

This is a comprehensive animation pack containing 106 unique animation sequences, professionaly crafted by an experienced game animator with 11+ years of industry experience. This set is specifically designed for Knight Sword combat, featuring responsive and polished motions for both combat and non-combat scenarios.

The assets are built for Unreal Engine 4 and 5, rigged to the Epic-compatible skeleton, and are fully IK and Retarget ready.

Note on Preview Video: As an animator focused on high-quality motion, I prioritize the raw animation performance. The preview is a long-take sequence without heavy video editing to show the authentic flow of the motions.
