505 Games has lifted the preview embargo for its upcoming Souls-like Action RPG, WUCHANG: Fallen Feathers. So, here is a video showcasing eight minutes of brand new gameplay footage from it.
WUCHANG: Fallen Feathers takes place in the land of Shu during the late Ming Dynasty. The world is full of factions fighting each other, and a strange illness that creates monstrous creatures.
In this game, players will take on the role of Wuchang. Wuchang is a skilled pirate warrior with amnesia. So, players will have to uncover the secrets of her mysterious past while dealing with the terrifying Ornithropy disease.
As with most Souls-like games, players will upgrade their weapons and learn new skills from defeated enemies. They can also improve their fighting style by using rare Red Mercury. Moreover, they will be able to develop new techniques as they progress through their exciting adventure. So yeah, as I said, this is your typical Souls game.
Not only that but you will be able to augment your weapons with powerful enchantments. This will allow for a unique approach to combat and strategy that suits your personal style. Or at least that’s what the devs claim.
Leenzee claims that the game will have a rich storyline and a dynamic combat system. However, this trailer does not really show anything like that. Instead, what I see is exactly what I’d expect from a Dark Souls clone.
To its credit, WUCHANG: Fallen Feathers appears to be one of the best Souls-like games. The animations and hit reactions seem great. So, that’s at least something positive. Visually, the game also looks great. According to 505 Games, it’s using Unreal Engine 5. So, this could turn out to be the “Wukong” of 2025. Still, if you hate the Dark Souls formula, you should stay away from it.
505 Games plans to release WUCHANG: Fallen Feathers on PC sometime in 2025.
Enjoy and stay tuned for more!

nowdays we have either remakes,remasters or game like other games. There is absolutely no original ideas anymore.
groomers like you need to obtain perspective. y'all complain but still play fortnite and mobile games cause y'all groomers
Y'all assume sh*t like that's the absolute truth. One comment does not say anything about anyone. lol
MORON
The indie scene is aplenty
Yeah you can't reinvent the wheel. Problem is they copy the same ol crap over and over instead of bringing oldies back. Clearly they lack imagination at this point, why not bring something really good back for a change.
maybe just go and play old games?
maybe you just go and fk ur momma up the crackhole cause we don't care what u gotta say troll mthfka.

I completely hate "soulslike" combat. Is boring, tedious, it's a roll iframe simulator.
The only good thing about this games is the atmosphere.
and they grindy and people who say they are not are backstabbers with no armor so they dodge faster and parry attacks every single time with perfect input.
Exactly. I mean, they aren't even rpg. I respect, kind of, from software. But they did hurt the industry with this combat. But also did, and this is where I don't understand, things like the old armored core and sekiro, which gives meaning to the combat and it's actually a good story, perfect atmosphere and very skilled combat. I didn't roll even once. Loved the parry.
vast majority of people prefers dodge over parry, perfectly games allow for both to be valid. There is reason Sekiro didnt sell as well as others and most people no longer even mention it.
Also did you know dodge is same as parry, press one button in right time, thats all.
No they didn't, the industry hurt itself because they follow what is popular instead of doing their own thing.
I usually play these games after the hype has watered down for the atmosphere bypassing their tedious sweat type gameplay with a good ol trainer. Don't give a rats a*s for their grind.
Short half a*sed game/studio with no story/insight will always ask that of a player. It's a trap.
jesus… what grind? no soul game ever required any grind or even skill. If pressing 2 buttons is too much for you then issue is YOU not the game. All souls and elden were very easy.
Listen gen z, mind your own fking business and stop trying to prove ur a sweat. Ur just a blabbering sh*t. Nobody gives a sht how you play the game. Stop judging others to cover your own insecurities.
amen, tell 'em brother
E ma einai paparas. Les k ego tou leo pos na paiksei na poume.
and the girl. she's a looker on that image. why can't western devs create such faces? ah yes I forgot.. they are g@y. all of them. AIDS everywhere
Thank goodness for Japan, Korea and especially China for existing! They literally saved 2024, all we got from America was activist trash, that bombed..
we gamers are straight up clued in nowadays, we see the patterns know what to avoid.. if there is a race change(always white(man) to black female), pronouns, flags in dev profiles on social media, (anyone on bluesky), devs with brightly colored hair, (half shaved), if s.b.i or any one of their aliases.. every single one of their games, is a sure fire way to predict a flop..
try as they might, but these activists(they hate games, and gamers), will never destroy the games industry..just the legacy western studios who pay them to ruin their game.. 99% of the old school western studios have been infiltrated by these talentless hacks, and this is why Asia is killing it lately, even when sites like ign(orant), make up blatant lies to try discredit and cancel Asian games, as seen with Game Science and the purposefully mistranslated rubbish they continued to push (and repeated by their fellow activist publications) ..
no amount of disinformation and gas lighting will trick us into accepting their awful, very trash, unprofessional activist drivel, and wholly buggy messes..
Me too bro, me too, but as that term is thrown around 'willy nilly', without any rhyme and reason, I'm gunna assume it IS NOT souls like at all.. may have systems like the bonfire, and losing built up experience only..won't know till I get my hands on it.. I really hope so though, I've been keen to play this game for ages!
pretty but why did it have to be a souls like game?
because people like that type of games?
They already have a thousand options to play.. we just want some good old school action combat..
So would you mind if they turn this have into Mario Kart then? Haha, "because people like that type of games".
WHY are 93% of Third person Slashers Soul-likes….Means I'll never play, but damn looks pretty. Look forward to the Censorship drama… No prettys allowed in 2020s!!
Its Chinese game, no one will censor pretty women. They dont care about western idiocy.
Beside woke is dead already. Trump said after inauguration there will be only 2 genders again so whole movement will be dismantled soon.
Only anti Musk/Trump censorship will remain but they both like pretty women so at least we will have that back.
I don't play much souls-like, but Oh my! I won't mind playing this one… er'-hrmm' for "Tough Combat" Ofc.
That's not Souls like. There's literally sunshine. There's no Gothic tone. The combat isn't heavy.
everything isn't a Souls like. I don't think you know what that means.
Well let's see:
is combat heavy and sluggish? yes.
are healthy replenishing flasks numbered? yes.
are shrines the only places you can save progress and replenish the said crappy flasks? yes.
are there bosses that take a certain learning curve to master and evade? yes.
bad ragdoll animations? yes.
I don't know Rick seems like a dark souls copycat to me.
Final verdict, you're just b*tthurt because we called ur fetish out.
more like you are buthurt there is another game your unskilled as will not be able to play because you are scrub that never got gut.
Pressing 2 buttons is way to much for you apparently.
listen troll i get it, u have a hardon for me, move along idiot.
Pressing two buttons after finishing the game no armor hardcore mode battling bosses. shut the fk up. u havent even gotten that far aswipe
Wow. You're a crybaby.
Yeah, he certainly lives in his mom's basement with the way he types and insults.
DO i give a rats a*s u downvoted? hell no!
and ur a reddit fggot so there's that lmao
What do we say three times around here to woke and snowflakes?
The irony tho, you cry cause everyone sees a dark souls copycat and call out others for telling you otherwise.
Wuchang,Wucong,Wolong 🤣🤣 Wololooooo !
ANOTHER ONE!

f*ck everything and anything "souls alike"
I'm tired of souls-like. Go back to hacknslash combat like the original God of War or Darksiders.
For real.. they pander too much to a small, niche group of masochistic jokers..
Naw. I don't want more China games. Keep that CCP crap away
Without China, 2024 woulda been hell, thank goodness for Asian devs, and their refusal to bend their knee to western crybaby activists..
I hate woke as much as the next guy. But running to China isn't the answer. If you fools took a minute to look into the history and current events of China, you would understand.
Isn't the 'Souls like' genre saturated enough already?
i was thinking just the same,
i was like what king of ga….
"starting the video"
oh an other one…
Take a shot every time he says "Souls"
