Heavenly Sword is a 2007 action-adventure game developed by British company Ninja Theory and published by Sony Computer Entertainment for the PlayStation 3. The game revolves around player-character Nariko and her eponymous sword, battling against the forces of a tyrant warlord who seeks to destroy her clan.

Heavenly Sword received a mainly positive reception and sold over a million copies; it was praised for its graphics and combat system, while criticism stemmed from the short length of the game and lack of online capabilities.
