Laurely Birba confronts Zhang Liang, one of the bosses of the game

For its big return to the Tokyo Game Show 2022 in person, the publisher Koei Tecmo had highlighted its Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty. It must be said that the game has aroused real interest among players since its announcement and the various gameplay videos that have been presented. The good surprise is that the Japanese publisher has posted a playable demo of the game, available however only on PS5 and Xbox Series. Immediately, our Laurely Birba hastened to download the file to take the temperature of this game which is very reminiscent of the Nioh series. The video we share with you comes from his fight once morest Zhang Liang, a powerful general with a club and who will surprise us by transforming during the fight. Proof that the era of the Three Kingdoms will be very dark, but also fantastic. His observation is also clear: Wo Long looks a lot like Nioh and Laurely suspects Team Ninja of just applying a Three Kingdoms skin to his Souls-like. Obviously, there are some subtleties like this endurance gauge which has disappeared to offer a faster game. This did not prevent Laurely from validating the game which looks very promising.

We also recall that the development of the game started in 2019, with this idea of ​​making a sequel to Nioh, before deciding to leave the Sengoku period of Japan to choose the Three Kingdoms in China, but a darker version. In terms of gameplay, Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty has a morale system applicable to both the player and his enemies, in order to bring a little more strategy to the clashes. Otherwise, Wo Long has a number of RPG-specific elements to improve his character’s skills, knowing that he can be fully customized through a character editor like in Nioh 2. As for level design, it will be a more interventionist game and not an open world à la Elden Ring. Some will like it. Wo Long is expected to release in 2023 on PC, PS5, Xbox Series, PS4, and Xbox One.
