Players defeat enemies by reducing their health to nothing. The health of all enemies is constantly displayed at the top of the screen with numbered red meters.

As the player fights, the durability of their equipped weapon will go down. Players may also choose from a pre-selected set of spells and items to use as well. Players may have up to three weapons equipped and may switch between the three at will during a fight. Д«attles in Summon Night: Swordcraft Story 2 are 2D sidescrolling affairs.
