The Black Knight Sword of Rage Limited Edition brings pinball’s most iconic villain back for a third round. Released by Stern Pinball in 2019 and designed by Steve Ritchie — the same designer behind the original 1980 Black Knight — this table takes everything fans loved about the earlier games and rebuilds it with modern technology, all while keeping the character’s signature menace intact.
Only 600 Limited Edition units were ever produced worldwide, each including an exclusive mirrored backglass, anti-reflection glass, a shaker motor, and a sequentially numbered plaque. The soundtrack comes from Scott Ian of Anthrax, working alongside Brendon Small, giving the whole game a heavy metal edge that matches its dark medieval theme.

How Black Knight Sword of Rage Limited Edition Plays
You’re taking down the Black Knight’s horde of monsters before facing him in a final showdown. Switch hits fill up the Sword Meter — once it’s full, hitting the lit center target during a Battle Mode doubles your scoring and makes the mode easier to complete. Shooting the spinner lights Super at the center target, triggering one of several randomly selected Super Modes.
Complete WAR Hurry-Ups and Battle Modes to collect KNIGHT letters, and spell RAGE on the return lanes to light Mystery, collectible at the Shield. The interactive Black Knight toy is the table’s centerpiece — its motorized flail swings, its RGB helmet lights up and taunts you with custom speech, and its shield physically blocks incoming shots. Launch the ball from the Castle VUK up to the transparent upper playfield, where a 3-ball Catapult Multiball lock sets up the game’s biggest scoring moment: 6-ball multiball.
