About the game
You play a young warrior with the power of a phoenix in the Three Kingdoms, a land at war and overrun by demons. Fights are fast and built around deflecting enemy attacks at the right moment, with many weapon types and spells to choose from. The world is made of large open fields with enemy bases to take. Beating strong enemies raises your Morale, which makes you stronger and lets you recruit enemy officers.
It is also a full single-player game. Online play lets you take on strong enemies together, with up to three players in total. Which parts of the campaign allow it is not confirmed yet, because so far only a short demo has been playable.
Previews call it very hard, with parrying at the centre of combat. It suits friends who do not mind dying a lot. It is planned for 4 March 2027, so this describes the announced design.
