Ah, good, another fake chinese UE5 action game to throw on the pile next to CODE: JIN YONG, Black Myth Wukong, Faith of Danschant: Hereafter, and Where Winds Meet

It's very noticably Chinese/ Wuxia influenced, with the architecture, that face changing boss, the style of weapons and the sword fighting style (which is very different from Japanese iaijutsu/ kenjutsu). That said, it doesn't look quite like a full PS5 next gen game, unlike a lot of the other games that were showcased yesterday.

Very Nioh-y. Tenuously excited, despite the English voiceovers absolutely destroying the trailer.

This looks great actually, will keep a watch. I can forbid a lot of things if a game nails dark fantasy setting properly.

Looks cool but let's be honest, there's like a 90% chance that it's either: a) vaporware, b) will come out but be much more scuffed than in the trailer
