My Personal Impressions
I’ve been following Wuchang: Fallen Feathers since its reveal at the Xbox Showcase in June 2024. What grabbed me right away was the fluid combat and unique focus on Chinese history—rare in the souls-like genre. The game promises a tough, rewarding experience with flexible character builds for different playstyles.
The souls-like space is getting crowded, so I’m curious how Leenzee Games plans to stand out. From what I’ve seen, they’re going for a fresh take on combat with a wide range of bosses, each bringing unique tricks and mechanics.
I can’t wait to dive in when Wuchang: Fallen Feathers launches on July 24, 2025.
