While Koei Tecmo has already released a story trailer for Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty, the opening cutscene is available to view courtesy of IGN First. It talks about the Elixir, a mysterious substance coveted by an emperor that led to the downfall of his people. Check it out below.
The Elixir seems capable of granting immortality. Given the similarities to Nioh’s Amrita, there’s likely some nasty collateral damage necessary to make it work. From the start, players control a nameless soldier during the final days of the Han Dynasty in the Three Kingdoms era. They seek revenge against the Yellow Turban Rebellion, but the conspiracy surrounding the Elixir comes to light.
Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty is out on March 3rd for Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, PS4, PS5 and PC, and also launches on day one on Game Pass. Check out the latest gameplay here, which showcases the second chapter. You can also check out later-game area and techniques here.
