Bloodborne and Nioh producers announce Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty

Towards the end of the Xbox and Bethesda showcase last night, Phil Spencer took to the stage to reveal a few partnerships Xbox has been brewing with Japanese studios. Aside from a new project with Hideo Kojima and bringing the Persona series to Xbox, Microsoft has also secured a new partnership with Team Ninja and Koei Tecmo, which will see Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty launching on Xbox Game Pass. 

The publisher didn't share any gameplay footage but considering Fumihiko Yasuda (Nioh) and Masaaki Yamagiwa (Bloodborne) are behind the project, we believe it will feature souls-like combat and challenging, giant boss fights.

The game is described as a “dramatic, action-packed story”, where you play as a nameless militia soldier struggling to survive in a world filled with demons, set during the reign of the Han Dynasty in China. Here, you'll fight using Chinese martial arts to defeat your foes.

The game will launch in 2023 for Xbox Series X|S and PC. Xbox Game Pass and PC Game Pass subscribers will be able to play it on day one. The game will also be available via Xbox Cloud Gaming.

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
