Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty is an upcoming action RPG from Team Ninja, the studio behind critically acclaimed franchises like Nioh and Ninja Gaiden. Much like the Nioh games, it's a challenging souls-like title with a huge emphasis on countering and deflecting enemy attacks.
Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty takes place in a fictional Chinese universe inspired by the Three Kingdoms period. You play as the unnamed protagonist who's out to cleanse the three states from a corruption that's turning people into demonic creatures.
As mentioned previously, Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty is a Souls-like title, and both Nioh and Dark Souls fans, Sekiro in particular, will find themselves right at home. That said, here's everything you need to know about Wo: Long Fallen Dynasty before it launches.
