The first thing that was noticeable when watching the gameplay footage was the player riding a horse. It is unknown whether the riding mechanics will be similar to that of a car game, or more like the Red Dead Redemption 2 horse riding mechanics. The characters in the gameplay are speaking Mandarin, with English subtitles provided. It’s also showcased that the open world will not be empty, as what appears to be many side activities are seen in the gameplay, including sumo wrestling. Customization options were also shown during the gameplay, with players being able to choose different swords. Near the end of the gameplay, fighting was displayed with the player taking down multiple enemies at first, and then the player engaged in a boss battle.
