Team Ninja's next hardcore action RPG, Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty, looks very promising indeed — have a watch of its recent gameplay trailer to see how it's going. The developer, which previously brought us a pair of great Souls-like games with Nioh and Nioh 2, is building on its past efforts, though this new title will share some DNA with its predecessors.
According to Spanish site Vandal, speaking with producer Masaaki Yamagiwa, Wo Long will take about 40 hours to complete. This is in the same ball park as Team Ninja's last two titles, and as expected, the game will have plenty more to chew on for players who want to see and do everything, including endgame content after the credits roll.
Again, like the Nioh games, this new RPG will have a quest-based structure with fairly linear levels, rather than one big, expansive map. Each stage will include multiple interconnected routes, however, and the inclusion of a jump in Wo Long means each area will be more explorable and vertical than the older games.
There's no release date on the game just yet, but those attending Tokyo Game Show in September will get to try a playable demo. Are you excited for Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty? Hack and slash the comments section below.

Yeah it’ll take a while for the open-world structure of Elden Ring to become more prevalent amongst the souls-like sub-genre.
Hopefully better than Nioh. I haven't touched Nioh 2 so can't comment on how good that was.
All I can say is,
whoa…long.
Edit: Stephen beat me to it! Great minds and all that.
Watching this one. Could be a day one depends on difficulty and release time.
so is this one of those Hard souls type games or can you play it normally ?
Eastern premise
I felt Nioh looked and played like a PS3 game and couldn't get past the first few minutes. But this looks good, so I will definitely keep my eye on it.
Loved nioh..didnt get around to playing nioh 2 but must give it a go at some point..looking forwards to this.
Nioh was probably my favorite Souls-like game. Still have to play the second one, but I'm super excited for this. Love that it's gonna give us plenty of hours.
Will be playing it on Xbox tho, since it's gonna be a Game Pass Day 1 if I'm not mistaken.
@NeThZOR Nioh 2 improved on Nioh in many ways. I struggled to finish Nioh (even though I loved it, I got burnt out) but I played through Nioh 2 to completion, then replayed missions in the PS5 version, and have plans to go back to the DLC. I'd recommend at least checking it out
Cant wait for this game.its gonna be another instant classic like the 2 nioh games.word up son
Will playing it on my PS5 cant wait then again i will never get a Xbox anyway. I hate the controller lay-out.
Yes I am excited for this game. Trailers look good. Develop[er Interview was good on YT as well. Action RPG games are some of my favorite games
With this launching day one on GamePass - I’m going to bet right now that 6-8 months later there will be a 50% off sale it will be included.
So I’ll try it for $30-$40, if the reviews are alright.
40 hours wow, hopefully still a strong game despite being longer than expected.
