A methodical martial arts journey through a Western Chinese-inspired open world, combining real-time sword combat with atmospheric puzzle-solving and suspenseful storytelling.

What players say

Players praise the wuxia atmosphere and martial arts styles but say the game feels unfinished, with a promised ending DLC never released and a 'new revision' update that went silent after 2024. Combat divides opinion: the style variety is fun, but hit feedback is weak and some enemies can be stunlocked. Performance issues, broken crafting, and sparse English translation frustrate many.
