what are melee weapons

Melee weapons are weapons used in close-range combat, where you must be near the target to hit them. They usually do not rely on ammunition or projectiles.

Quick Scoop

Common examples include:

• Swords.
• Knives and daggers.
• Axes.
• Spears and polearms.
• Maces, clubs, and hammers.

In games, the term often means any short-range weapon used at close distance, like a knife, sword, or axe.

If you want, I can also explain the difference between melee , ranged , and thrown weapons.
