Wang Yue, an upcoming fantasy ARPG, is gearing up for its technical testing phase following the recent acquisition of its publication license in China. This initial test run will involve a select group of players tasked with identifying bugs and providing valuable feedback on gameplay mechanics.
A Fractured World
Wang Yue's technical test will immerse players in a world ravaged by a cataclysmic solar event. The planet is fractured, resulting in two distinct continents suspended in a bizarre gravitational anomaly. Tian Yue City, a breathtaking inverted metropolis, floats high above a desolate, ruined landscape. Players assume the role of Qing Wu, a mysterious character thrust into this chaotic reality after a betrayal. The narrative unfolds around the enigmatic worship of the once-destructive sun, the secrets of the upside-down city, and the shadowy figures intent on Qing Wu's demise.
Player Agency and Dynamic Interactions
Wang Yue departs from conventional open-world game design. Repetitive quests and mindless combat are replaced by a focus on exploration and player-driven narrative. Players are free to explore both the skies above Tian Yue City and the secrets hidden within the ruins below. The game world reacts dynamically to player choices, with NPCs exhibiting realistic responses to player actions, ranging from calling the authorities to expressing gratitude.
The development team actively seeks player input. Future plans include community discussions, design contests, and other engagement opportunities to foster collaboration and enhance the game's development. Registration for the technical test is currently open on the official website.
