Black Knight: Sword of Rage (Premium) Pinball Machine

Home Use Only – Great Condition, 1 Owner with Topper, Artblades and Insider Connected!

CONDITION:
Reacquired from the customer we sold it to new in 2019 is this beautiful Black Knight: Sword of Rage (Premium) Pinball Machine. This out of production game is in OUTSTANDING condition and is home use only. It has never been operated commercially in a public establishment such as a bar, arcade, or brewery to earn revenue and has only been enjoyed in the previous owners private residence which goes to show from the great condition it is in. There is one very small “nick” at the very bottom edge of the front cabinet decal to the right of the coindoor, hardly noticeable…but should be noted to any prospective buyer.

Since taking into our possession we have given the game a light clean up. In addition we have installed latest game software (1.17), installed the factory service kit for the upper playfield to help the ball bounce into the upper flipper upon making a loop. We have upgraded this game with Insider Connected which was never standard back when this game was in production in 2019.

This game has been accessorized with interior cabinet artblade decals and comes with probably the coolest animated topper that was ever released for any pinball machine. The Black Knight animated topper illuminates as well as insults you while your playing “WHERE IS A WORTHY CHALLENGER!” are amongst many of the quotes he’ll taunt you with throughout game play.

WARRANTY:
This pre-owned game includes our 30 day warranty covering the mechanical and electronic components on the game.

40 years in the making, the iconic pinball character, the Black Knight, returns to entertain a new generation of pinball players with the third game in the Black Knight franchise, Black Knight: Sword of Rage.

Navigating through these dark, mysterious, and twisted realms, players will uncover foes, demons, riches, and secrets in their quest against the Black Knight.

“There’s nothing more iconic in the pinball universe than the Black Knight character,” said Gary Stern, Chairman and CEO of Stern Pinball, Inc. “Created by game designer Steve “The King” Ritchie, the Black Knight has always taunted and antagonized players to battle him and now, for the first time, players will be able to fight back.”
