Announced this week Sony announced new Playstation China Hero Projects. Three Action-RPGs are currently in development.

Three New Action-RPGs Announced in Development Under Playstation China Hero Project

China Joy 2023 is underway this week, a conference which shows off upcoming games. In the spotlight were three games under the Playstation China Hero Project. The project takes studios under their wing to support them in getting games developed with Playstation. Previously titles such as ANNO: Mutationem and Lost Soul Aside. This year three new Action-RPGs were announced, each with very different settings.

The God Slayer

The Action-RPG is by the same studio that developed My Time at Sandrock, Pathea Games. A few screenshots and art concepts were released showing a mix of ancient China with fantasy elements. One screenshot shows a massive dragon being fought but what we assume is the God Slayer wielding flame in hand.

There also seems to be some stealth elements in the mix, with some images showing the character crouching in the grass to hide from an unbeknownst enemy.

While it’s always exciting to see a new project in development, we are going to have quite a while for this one. The studio has its sights set on a 2027 release time frame which is about four years away. It looks completely different from their previous sim-life game, but could be a good one to keep an eye on from the Playstation China Hero Project.

The Winds Rising

Another project announced was the Action-RPG by TiGames The Winds Rising. The F.I.S.T. Forged in Shadow Torch developer revealed a rich world following a girl who leaves her peaceful village to go on grand adventures. She stumbles upon a lost monster cub which causes trouble for the whole kingdom. A short teaser trailer announcing the project was revealed, and some brightly coloured artwork showing the vibrant game.

DaBa: Lands of Water Scar

These aren’t the only Action-RPGs in the mix. Sinner: Sacrifice for Redemption developer Dark Star unveiled their new project DaBa: Land of Water Scar. This one follows a world that is inhabited by humanoid clay puppets. On the verge of collapse, players will uncover the world’s story by defeating enemies and seeking answers. We get a peek at some larger-than-life bosses, one that spins around inside a bell making for a challenging boss fight.

A closer look at DaBa: Lands of Water Scar will be happening this weekend on July 30th during ChinaJoy 2023.

These new Playstation China Hero Project games look to be quite early on in development, but we’re looking to see more about these.
