The first video game about Gunblades was released on February 21, 1986.

Nintendo, Armageddon Games and Square has published most of these games

These all look like melee weapons. Otherwise use bayonet or something, guns with bayonets do not count for this tag.

NOT limited to swords as there are cases of axes and hammers that do the same.
