'Infinity Blade III' Players Invited to Win '47 Ronin' Sword

Infinity Blade III players can work together and earn a special-edition digital samurai sword from 47 Ronin in an in-game event later this month.

ChAIR and Epic Games announced the promotion Monday. Starting Friday through Dec. 24, players team up in a ClashMob to defeat 47 Ronin's Samurai Brute

If enough Infinity Blade III players participate and succeed, all players will receive the Brute's sword, which will be added to their in-game weapons.
