WUCHANG

FALLEN FEATHERS

WUCHANG: Fallen Feathers is a soulslike action RPG from Chengdu-based Leenzee, published globally by 505 Games. Set in the land of Shu during the late Ming Dynasty, the game blends Chinese history, folklore, and cosmic-horror undertones as warlords clash and a plague called Feathering mutates the living into grotesque abominations. Play as Wuchang, a skilled pirate warrior suffering from amnesia and the Feathering disease, and explore forgotten temples, overgrown ruins, and shadowed battlefields built in Unreal Engine 5. Master the Skyborn Might combat system across melee weapons, spellcasting, and weapon techniques; harvest skills from fallen foes; sacrifice Red Mercury to evolve your build; and enchant your arsenal to suit your style. Choices across multiple endings shape Wuchang's recovered memories and the fate of Shu. Launched on July 24, 2025 for PC (Steam and Epic Games Store), PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S—including day-one Xbox Game Pass—with bilibili co-publishing in mainland China.

Stories behind the game

WUCHANG: Fallen Feathers drops you into late Ming Sichuan — a land where warlords, plague, and something far older than the dynasty are colliding. The game weaves together real history (the fall of the Ming, Zhang Xianzhong's reign of terror in Shu), ancient Shu civilization (Sanxingdui, the Bo people, the legend of Du Yu and the cuckoo), and winged immortals from classical myth into a dark soulslike odyssey. You don't need a degree in Chinese history to play, but knowing why feathers keep showing up, what Red Mercury is supposed to do, and why 1647 matters will make every temple ruin and battlefield hit differently.
