Developed using Unreal Engine 5, the game boasts next-generation visuals and a combat system deeply rooted in the fluidity and dynamism of Asian martial arts films. Prepare for swift, intricate battles demanding precise blocking, parrying, and dodging, with multi-stage boss encounters adding to the challenge.

A recent survey involving 3,000 game developers reveals a significant shift in platform preference. A striking 80% now favor PC development over consoles, a surge from 58% in 2021 and 66% in 2024. This dramatic increase highlights the burgeoning appeal of the PC market. The data underscores a clear change in industry priorities.

The PC's inherent flexibility, scalability, and access to a broader audience are driving this trend. Consequently, consoles are losing ground. Currently, only 34% of developers are focusing on Xbox Series X|S titles, slightly less than the 38% working on PS5 games (inclusive of the Pro version).
