Hero's Adventure: Road to Passion 1.0 Release
Fellow adventurers,
We are grateful to share that, after some eight months of Early Access, Hero’s Adventure will be launching into 1.0 on November 16th with full English translation!
We embarked on this journey with Hero’s Adventure to create a realm that honors the wuxia tradition. Throughout Early Access, the absence of English localization may have been a barrier for many. However, the supportive gestures from our community - including the creation of an English mod by dedicated players, have been genuinely encouraging. As we transition into 1.0, we’re now able to provide full English translation, a step made possible by the collective effort and invaluable feedback from our global community. Your support has not only bridged the linguistic gap but also enriched our journey thus far, making this a meaningful moment for all of us.
Hero's Adventure is an open-world RPG deeply rooted in wuxia - a realm where honor, justice, and the pursuit of the righteous path are the lifeblood of every adventurer. It’s about transcending the ordinary through martial arts, forging friendships in the heat of the battle, and daily endeavors toward justice. The thrill of adventure, bonds formed along the journey, and the choices defining your path are the essence of Hero’s Adventure.
These tales continue to draw people into a genre filled with a rich tradition of storytelling, and this is the very essence we hope to capture in Hero’s Adventure. As you step into the game, you’re living the Jianghu world, facing the trials and tribulations that come with the pursuit of martial excellence.
If you haven’t had the chance to try Hero’s Adventure or are still on the fence, we totally understand and will say this: Hero’s Adventure is not going to be a game for everyone, but for those who appreciate open-ended explorations, dynamic kungfu showdowns, and evolving narratives, this is their Wuxia fantasy. An analogy that made us chuckle was calling the game a 2D Baldur’s Gate (we love Baldur’s Gate but would never dare compare our project to such a legend).
Full disclosure, given the extensive narrative present in the original script, the current English localization is far from perfection. Now, more than ever, we welcome your feedback and suggestions to help us improve legibility and ensure an authentic wuxia storytelling experience.
Embark on Your Own Adventure:
Some aspire to be legendary swordsmen, defenders of the weak, and champions of justice, while others seek the path of a Taoist priest, honing their cultivation skills and striving for self-enlightenment. With more than 30 factions and immersive storylines, you can live your own version of martial arts dream in Hero's Adventure.
Unexpected Encounters Await:
We've crafted a multitude of random and scripted encounters that will enrich your journey. Perhaps you'll cross paths with an ambitious lieutenant amidst a power struggle at a humble inn, or you’ll run into a retired kung fu master in a remote village. These are the experiences you’ve learned to expect in the ever-changing world of martial art.
And remember: every choice you make, every person you befriend (or offend), and every faction you engage with will leave a mark; this is your wuxia story.
Become the Master of Martial Arts:
Whether you're decoding ancient techniques off a forgotten scroll, or prefer training with a battle-hardened warrior, there’s no correct solution for mastering martial arts. Choose from a variety of weapon types and explore 300+ martial arts skills, the Jianghu will be yours to conquer.
Explore a Living, Breathing World
In this Wuxia simulator, you'll get to explore 80 cities and villages that bring wuxia to life. Witness how villagers go about their daily routines, and experience the rhythms of ancient Chinese cities.
For those who seek to immerse themselves in this culture and explore the intricate tapestry of Wuxia life, we believe you'll find what you're looking for within 'Hero's Adventure.'
Craft Your Narrative:
Our hope is to provide an experience where you can embody your own martial spirit. To that end, we've prepared over 10 distinct endings for the game. Whether you choose to be a noble swordsman, a guardian of the nation, or an agent of chaos, you'll find an ending that aligns with your chosen path in Hero's Adventure.
More to expect in Hero’s Adventure 1.0:
As part of our effort to collect player feedback and suggestions, and to better respond to questions, we’ve recently launched a Discord - join us?
