Swords of Legends — Release Date, Trailer & What We Know

About Swords of Legends

Swords of Legends is a single-player action-adventure RPG set in the primordial age, a world drawn from the strange tales of classical Chinese literature, where mortals, gods, and wandering souls walk the same earth. From Aurogon Shanghai, this is the official sequel to the Gujian series, carrying its signature storytelling and artistry to a new adventure. As an Arbiter of the Underworld, you can unleash mystical techniques, summon spirit creatures, and wield an arsenal of weapons — each with its own playstyle, from the swords of the living to the artifacts of the dead. Read your enemies' weakness, weave your powers, and bring down all who cross your path. Step into a world born of ancient Chinese myth, where the gods, demons, and beasts of The Classic of Mountains and Seas (Shan Hai Jing) walk the earth once more - rendered in cinematic detail on Unreal Engine 5. Lotus ponds at first light, weathered temples drifting with leaves, lonely inns glowing in the mountains. Flower-spirits, headless ghosts, beauties with painted skin — alive down to the last brushstroke, all bound into a tale that spans the mortal realm and the underworld. Not every soul wants to leave. Some still cling to a final wish. Defeat them. Hear them out. Lay their burdens to rest — and the spirit you once fought will walk beside you, bringing a story, a power, and a voice all their own. Their tales are mirrors. The longer you walk together, the more of their past comes to light. Each one is a question for your own road: what kind of life do you want to live?
