About

Sword Sage: Awakening is an action RPG inspired by Chinese myth and folklore. You play as San Niang, a novice disciple of the Sword Sage Sect, who must confront a thousand-year burden brought on by the leak of a forbidden scripture and face countless ominous forces lurking in the shadows.

The game unfolds in a fantastical version of ancient China shaped by the catastrophic fallout of the White Sword Sage’s actions centuries ago. In the Shu region, the people have embraced advanced mechanical technologies to survive relentless natural disasters. As San Niang, you’ll master the distinctive Chinese swordplay technique Green Evasion, Crimson Assault, combining graceful movement with fierce strikes. Wield prosthetic leg techniques and spellcraft to defeat powerful demonic foes on a journey full of strange encounters.

Along the way, you’ll experience the unique customs, folklore, and social fabric of ancient Sichuan and ultimately uncover the truth behind the leaked scripture and the disasters it unleashed.

Look forward to a rich and dynamic gameplay experience.
