Video game weapon replicas are expensive and often used just for cosplay purposes. But let’s be honest—they’re also pretty freakin’ cool display items. I don’t have any intention of cosplaying as an Elden Ring Tarnished warrior trying to become an Elden Lord any time soon, but looking at this replica of the Dark Moon Greatsword, I just might.

Replica company Panda Studio is releasing a $459 (plus shipping and tax) recreation of one of Elden Ring’s nine Legendary Armaments, some of the game’s most powerful weapons. The Dark Moon Greatsword is the reward for a rather involved questline tied to Ranni the Witch, and it’s not only a powerful blade but gorgeous to look at. The replica manages to incorporate the sword’s powered-up state by using a blue, translucent finish rather than simply recreating its base design, which doesn’t glow a surreal blue. It’s a lovely detail that brings out the leaves engraved on the blade.
If you don’t want to use it for a cosplay photoshoot, it also comes in a wall-mount version, so you can just put it on display instead. It’s a versatile prop.

The sword is available for pre-order right now on the We Are Anime Collectors website, and is expected to ship in the third or fourth quarter of 2024.
