Getting Started Before Launch

First-session expectations from official copy: Soul’s premise, SSD install, and which systems are still unpublished.

Premise

You play as Soul, framed for murdering his master and left with a fatal wound and sixty-six days to live. Steam states he roams the Wulin to expose a conspiracy in the martial world.

Setting (named, not explained)

Dark wuxia action RPG on Unreal Engine 5. Official marketing uses traditional wuxia, fantasy, folk horror, and “kungfupunk.” Steam names Memory Flowers, the Discordance, Transcension, the Lady of the Veil, and Inanis' Dreamscape. How they connect in the campaign — Pending official confirmation.

Before you press start

• Confirm the release date on your storefront (28 vs 29 October 2026).
• On PC, install to an SSD; Steam min and rec both require it.
• If you want story first, official text points to Wayfarer (see Difficulty Modes).
• Combat verbs in official copy: dodge, deflect, counter, combo.

Progression

State of Play: side quests and helping citizens can open story paths. Quest log, map size, and New Game Plus — Pending official confirmation.
