What Is SAMURAI DUELS?
SAMURAI DUELS is a Roblox player-versus-player sword game developed by Seriously Samurai. With over 31 million visits and a 94.7% approval rating, it has become one of the fastest-growing samurai combat experiences on the platform — despite still being in beta. Each duel revolves around charging your swing, reading your opponent, and outclassing their attack to win the round.
The progression loop pairs mechanical skill with collection goals. Playing matches earns keys, which you spend on crates to unlock swords of varying rarity. Gamepasses like VIP, 2x Luck, and limited bundles accelerate progression or add exclusive weapons such as HADES, OBLIVION, and the Avenger Sword. Content Updates also rotate Black Market stock, limited-time modes, and Map of the Day arenas.

Keys are the backbone of SAMURAI DUELS progression. You earn them by playing matches, and optionally through VIP's 25 daily keys, the 2x Keys gamepass, and promo codes that currently grant Shards for abilities.
Understanding crate odds matters. The 2x Luck gamepass doubles your chances of pulling higher-rarity weapons, which can dramatically change the value of each key spent. Black Market rotations offer targeted buys between crate sessions.
