Why you might like it

  • A visually stunning open-world wuxia action RPG set in ancient China, with fluid parry/dodge/stance-based martial arts combat widely praised as some of the best in the genre.
  • Reached over 9 million players within its first two weeks of launch and held a 'Very Positive' Steam rating, reflecting a strong, well-received debut.
  • Qinggong traversal (wall-running, gliding, a grapple hook) makes exploring the open world satisfying in its own right, not just a means to an end.
  • Developer NetEase has repeated a genuine no-pay-to-win promise since the first trailer, and reviewers confirm progression isn't gated behind purchases.
  • True cross-platform play and progression across PC, PlayStation 5, and mobile lets you pick up the same character anywhere.
Before you play

Things to consider

  • Concurrent player counts have dropped substantially from launch peaks (over 250,000 at peak) to the tens of thousands by mid-2026, a common trajectory for live-service launches but worth knowing going in.
  • English localization has rough edges — mismatched subtitles, odd menu labels, and occasional dropped cutscene audio have been reported.
  • The game layers a lot of systems (open world, light MMO elements, minigames) that don't always cohere into one clean experience.
  • Launch-era bugs including clipping, occasional crashes, and unresponsive inputs are still being patched out.
  • An overloaded UI and a wall of currencies/systems are explained poorly, creating a steep initial learning curve.
