Coming out of nowhere, today we got a debut trailer for what is currently known as Project: The Perceiver. This Chinese open-world action game strikes us as a fascinating blend of Ghost of Tsushima-style exploration with the intense sword-fighting action of something like Sekiro.
We got an extended look at gameplay in the seven-minute-long trailer, and on top of just being drop-dead gorgeous, it all looks really slick. Like, immaculate. Nothing in the way of a release date or even a release window yet, of course, but we will be drooling over any additional details we can garner and will be sure to share any we get.
In addition to Black Myth Wukong and Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty, it seems like we will be swimming in high-quality Chinese action games in the coming years. What do you think of Project: The Perceiver? Let us know in the comments section below.

This game looks sick
This looks amazing. And hopefully some day I'll get to say more than that for one of these chinese games
Damn, that looks amazing. I’m definitely gonna keep my eye on this game from here on out.
I before E except after C
Yeaahhh, I can't wait for these Chinese Soulsy titles. Has anyone played anything from any of them though?
This looks dope
It looks like an almost exact copy of Ghost of Tsushima!! Not quite as gorgeous tho.
This feels to me to be more like a fully open Sekiro and nioh 2 and even more like nioh 2 due to what looks like shape shifting to different forms which I'm thinking you unlock as you beat bosses maybe 🤔. Overall this looks amazing and I can't wait to get my hands on it.
I feel like there's been about five of these Chinese developed games over the last few years that look really good, but seem to never get a release date.
Me, for the first five minutes: Yep, that looks cool. I'll keep an eye out for sure.
At 5+ mins.: Whaaaaaa…?!
Will any of these actually come out, Black Myth etc? I have no real history of Chinese releases, but feel like I saw Wukong many years ago, and they showed gameplay that looked pretty advanced too, and yet? I don't know... I've not seen anything ramp up towards a release, maybe I'm missing something though
Oh man that looks beautiful. Maybe in our lifetime ..
Wow! Looks amazing but will have to wait and see if it actually plays well. Another to keep an eye on!
@SystemAddict Not sure why such a fatalistic view gave me such a chuckle. lol
I was glad to se a bit of hand to hand combat as well. Personally would love to have more games like sifu or sleeping dogs with grounded, mostly weaponless gameplay. There are enough great games with swordplay already.
Wait a sec.....just copying over my comment from Arad Chronicle here......juuuuuust about now...There we go
"Another Korean game that looks too good to be true. I'm still waiting for most of these games to actually come out/be good. So far we got Bright Memory from a Chinese dev and that was a glorified tech demo.
Lost Soul Aside, Stellar Blade, Lies of P, Black Wukong, Crimson Desert, they all look gorgeous but none of these has a release date."
I'll be interested when it gets a release date
The bit where the dude is fighting in some dark, rain-soaked village, hops a fence and then arrives in a serene location with not a drop of water in sight really cracked me up!
Otherwise, yeah, I mean, it looks good, but a lot of these Chinese/Korean games are shown off, look absolutely brilliant, and then are never seen again.
A lot of the time these Asian games that seemingly show off Gameplay are actually just showing a CG video of what they project the game to look and play like. Most of the time they don’t even have enough staff to make the game, and the videos are to create buzz and attract potential recruits.
This looks incredible — I just hope it actually releases one day.
I have just five words to say... when for the love of god??!! Ok six
I just want to know what's up with the Tang
Wow, that looks great! Love the clanging swords!
Those sound effects are incredible when sword meets sword
@Athrum not Korean but it’s Chinese
First 5 minutes it looked like Ghost of Tsushima meets Sekiro but after that it looked like Final Fantasy.
This gave me Sekiro PTSD...and I'm here for it. The sound of the clanging swords was so sexy.
This looks absolutely sick! So beautiful sceneries. Waiting!
Gameplay looks cool from what little I saw. I'll definitely watch for more updates.
