The Sword is one of the primary starter weapons available at the beginning of Megabonk. As a reliable and easy-to-use melee weapon, it is the default choice for the character Sir Oofie.

The Sword is not only a solid weapon for early runs but also a crucial tool for progression, as it is required to unlock two other powerful weapons.
