Since its original launch in August 2024, it has become something of a darling among gamers and critics worldwide. It has bagged some serious awards, including the Players' Voice for Best Action Game at The Game Awards and Game of the Year for 2024 at The Stream Awards. And on Steam, it has earned an "Overwhelmingly Positive" rating, which says a lot about its quality.
This single-player epic is originally priced at $60 for PC and PS5, and a similar price tag can be expected on Xbox (though there is no official listing yet). Get prepared to dive into a beautifully-crafted world inspired by classic Chinese mythology.
