''Knights of the Temple: Infernal Crusade'' is a 2004 European [[NoExportForYou exclusive]], made for [[UsefulNotes/IBMPersonalComputer PC]], UsefulNotes/PlayStation2, UsefulNotes/Xbox, and UsefulNotes/GameCube. It is about Paul, young Templar Knight. He has been sent on a mission to uncover the evil conspiracy.

An [[SinisterMinister evil bishop]] has kidnapped Adelle, a mysterious young girl who has divine powers and he wants to use her to perform dark rituals in Holy places to desecrate them and gain access to the Gates of Hell. The game has a music by ''Music/WithinTemptation''.

It's basically a bootleg ''Film/KingdomOfHeaven'' with melee oriented action combat like others at the time.

It also received a sequel a year later, titled ''Knights of the Temple II''. It was on the same platforms as the original besides Gamecube, due to the poor performance of the original there.

!!The game contains examples of:
* BadassPreacher: The very first enemies that you encounter in the game, are monks armed with knives.

* LightIsGood / LightIsNotGood: Paul wears white Templar armor with the red cross, but the Bishop also wears white and gold ornate clothing.
** The latter trope could also apply to Hell Knight. He looks almost like a regular knight templar, except that he has an inverted cross on his white robe and inverted-cross-style plumed helmet.
* SaintlyChurch: How the Church is presented in the game.
* SinisterMinister: Lord Bishop betrayed the Church and plans to release Hell upon the world. There are also monks in the beggining who attack Paul. They are implied to have been corrupted by the Bishop.
* TheNotLoveInterest: Adelle is stated to be Paul's childhood friend, and Paul's goal is to rescue her. However, there is not implication of any romance between them. This is understandable, because Paul is a Templar Knight who historically weren't allowed to have romances.
