Feel the bloody brutality of Medieval combat. From hammers crushing skulls to swords hacking limbs, the medieval period was one of the most brutal in history. BOOM Library MEDIEVAL MELEE captures all the clashing of steel and raw, bone-crunching gore in one of their largest-ever collections of sound effects.
All sounds were recorded either in the pristine sound environment of our studios or onsite in the soot and heat of our sourced armourers. Sounds include various impacts, deflects, equips/un-equips, finishers and more.

Medieval Melee Designed
CLANGING IRON
The awesome, deadly power of 10 different weapons and 2 shields – from axes to swords to war hammers is in your hands. Each weapon comes with 12 different files and each shield with 8 different files. Bodies and tails also come in separate files, to allow you to customize the audio wrath.
LAYERED STEEL
Fine Damascus steel was made with up to 300 layers of steel. Though not quite as complex as these notable blades, our sound designers cleaved into their creativity to forge new sounds and capture the truest edge of each weapon.
BRUTAL BLADES
The GORE sounds of stabs and slices bring out the complete sound for the Designed pack. Perfect for video games where total immersion has become a requirement. These sounds have already been given the full, carnal power necessary to create that full Hollywood sound and are ready to use in your project without any further editing.

Designed, Construction Kit, Bundle – What’s The Difference?
CONSTRUCTION KIT – THE SOURCE SOUNDS
A CONSTRUCTION KIT generally contains thousands of sounds as raw as possible and only as processed as needed for a specific topic, perfectly organized to make it easy for you to use them. Carefully selected, those sounds give you all the freedom and possibilities you need to design your own sounds within the given topic from scratch. For some topics it is difficult to provide recordings only, so you will find some pre-processed or synthesizer based sounds in those collections as well, but still only basic material, since we don’t want to offer it compressed to the maximum or similarly mutated. After all, the CONSTRUCTION KIT serves as such for ourselves, namely in the following process of creating the respective DESIGNED collection.
DESIGNED – THE PRE-DESIGNED & READY-TO-USE SOUNDS
The DESIGNED collections feature fully designed sounds which originate from the CONSTRUCTION KIT stock. The sounds are of a specific topic and ready to use: mixed, processed, compressed, mastered etc. They can be easily put into all kind of projects, for example trailers, commercials, movies, TV shows and so forth or used as in-game sounds. This collection provides a quick and easy workflow and you can still use those sounds as a basic and layer, stretch or otherwise adjust them to suit your specific needs.
BUNDLE – THE MONEY-SAVER
The bundle is the best option as it contains both, the DESIGNED and the CONSTRUCTION KIT at a reduced price.
