Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty Review - A Chaotic and Stylish Ride

In Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty, you play as a nameless militia soldier who saves the life of a blindfolded young master. The game's opening sequence feels like great popcorn action B-grade cinema, with voice actors pouring their hearts into the dialogue. While the story may not be groundbreaking, it never gets in the way of your enjoyment, and the game's style and coolness factor are undeniable.

However, as you delve deeper into the game, you'll encounter character motivations that change on a whim, leaving you feeling lost and confused about what's happening and why. The English dub is also subpar, making it best to stick with the default setting and use subtitles instead.

For fans of games set in the Three Kingdoms era of Chinese history, Wo Long's story and characters will be familiar territory. But can this game live up to its promise? As a member of the Imperial Army fighting against renegades in 184 AD China, you'll embark on a journey that spans around 20-30 hours.

Throughout your adventure, you'll fight against humans, creatures, and demons to bring peace to the later Han Dynasty. Along the way, you'll experience Team NINJA's expertise in combat, making you feel like an unstoppable force on the battlefield.

Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty is a unique blend of Sekiro's intense action and Dynasty Warriors' epic battles. With its chaotic and stylish gameplay, it's definitely worth checking out - especially since it's releasing day one into Game Pass on Console, Cloud, and PC. So grab your weapon and get ready to fight through the chaos in Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty.
