PS5 Action Adventure Loulan Did Appear at ChinaJoy, But We Only Saw Some Artwork

Loulan was announced by Chinese developer ChillyRoom last week, as part of Sony’s ongoing China Hero Project incubation programme. However, despite the reveal, we still haven’t seen a second of gameplay footage – and don’t really know much about the game at all. Presumably, for Mandarin speakers, this ChinaJoy 2024 panel captured by Gematsu is illuminating; for the rest of us, there’s only a couple of pieces of artwork to ogle.

The game’s official blurb, via Google Translate, reveals: “Players will take on the role of a guard, using their unique abilities to explore and solve puzzles, experience realistic cold-weapon combat, defeat powerful enemies, and fight against their own destiny.”

We want to say some of these images look classic God of War-esque, but the reality is we’re probably looking at another Soulslike here. Either way, Sony has identified the project as one it wants to support, so hopefully we learn more soon.
