Overview[edit | edit source]
Super armor provides the player with the most armor out of any other armor in the game, giving the player 200 armor points when given. However, it will not go beyond the 200 armor points limit.
Appearance[edit | edit source]
Super armor's appearance varies on the game:
- In most games, it appears as a huge red armor.
- In Serious Sam 2, it is full set of medieval-style armor with a helmet, chest piece, shield and legs.
- In Serious Sam 3: BFE and Serious Sam 3 VR: BFE, super armor looks just like the Orc Gunner's torso armor.
Occurrence[edit | edit source]
If super armor appears normally, it is a big sign that the player is going to be in a very large and dangerous fight soon, and should prepare accordingly. While super armor doesn't appear in the original version of Serious Sam 3: BFE, it does in the Serious Sam Fusion version; it can be found on the final level in The Guardian of Time, but only appears once.
Super armor can also be found in secrets, and in that case, is never a sign that the player will be involved in a huge battle soon. Most of these are well hidden or difficult to get, as they are very useful.
Behind the scenes[edit | edit source]
- In the Alpha version of Serious Sam 1, the armor's design was drastically different. It used the 3 models of the Medium Armor, Large Armor and Extra Large Armor combined and made the latter two completely red. It also used a unique charge fanfare sound effect when equipped.
- In Test 1, super armor had a different, simpler design that was painted brown. This design was used in Test 2, but was recolored red.
- The super armor is also an item in Serious Sam 3: BFE's game files, but only appears as a functioning item in the Serious Sam Fusion version.
