Stern's Black Knight: Sword of Rage behind-the-scenes doc showcases Ritchie design & heavy metal aesthetic.
Synopsis
Stern Pinball releases behind-the-scenes documentary on Black Knight: Sword of Rage, featuring interviews with designer Steve Ritchie, composer Tim Kitzrow, and art/animation teams. The game represents the third iteration of the Black Knight franchise, incorporating modern pinball design, heavy metal music (Scott Ian/Anthrax, Brendon Small/Dethklok), and an elaborate antagonist mechanic with a bidirectional flail and upper playfield elements on Premium/LE versions. Development philosophy emphasizes spectacle, intensity, and narrative progression toward a final one-on-one battle with the Black Knight.
