— In-game description

Weapon Gallery description: A two-handed sword with a flame-like wave design on the blade. It gives the weapon a beautiful outward appearance, but in fact, the wave design actually serves to make the sword difficult to guard against, making it easy to damage the enemy. On the other hand, it is also difficult to use it to guard against enemy attacks.

Description: A two-handed sword with a wavy design that gives the appearance of a flame. However, do not be fooled by its decorative appearance; it is a fierce blade, capable of causing extreme carnage. Moreover, its design makes it difficult to defend against, and any cuts it causes are said to never heal.

Trivia

• Flamberge has appeared as an extra weapon for Siegfried in several games the first being Soul Edge/Soul Blade where it actually had a fire-like coloring. In later games after Soul Edge/Soul Blade it had the same basic design, but was colored like a normal sword.
• One of Lloyd Irving's, a guest character in Soulcalibur Legends, signature weapons is also named Flamberge, which possesses a flame design with an energy-fire color scheme, similar to Flamberge in Soul Edge/Soul Blade.
• In Soulcalibur V, Flamberge has changed its appearance as it looks more like a traditional German zweihander. A similar design had appeared in an earlier game, Soulcalibur: Broken Destiny, where it went under the name Zweihänder (in the Japanese version) and Gram (in the English version).
• The Steel Greatsword from Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim has a resemblance to the Soulcalibur V version of Flamberge.
• Landau uses this weapon in Soulcalibur VI.
