Wo Long 2: Wings of Ember announced for 2027 at Xbox Games Showcase
Wo Long: Wings of Ember is set to launch on PC and Xbox in early 2027.
2023’s Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty is getting a sequel.
Announced at the 2026 Xbox Games Showcase, Wo Long 2: Wings of Ember is set to launch early 2027.
“Set in the aftermath of the first game amid a fantasy take on the late Eastern Han period of Chinese history, you’ll play a nameless champion fighting against humans and demons alike across vast battlefields,” Xbox’s official description reads.
“The new game features an evolved Chinese martial arts style integrating both offensive and defensive combat, and you can expect to learn more about what’s new in the coming months.”
The original Wo Long – which was a soulslike from Team Ninja, in the same vein as the Nioh series – has been added to Xbox Game Pass today.
The trailer showcased large-scale battles that weren’t present in the original game, in addition to the action combat that Team Ninja is known for.
The game’s official messaging states: “In this long-awaited sequel to Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty, which has surpassed over 5 million players worldwide, players must master the evolved Chinese martial arts and conquer battlefields of the Three Kingdoms overrun by monstrous demons alongside renowned heroes who left their mark on history.”
Wo Long 2 is confirmed to launch on PC and Xbox Series consoles, though nothing is known about a potential PS5 launch.
VGC reviewed Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty, giving the game a 3/5 and saying, “More of a side-step than an evolution from Nioh 2, Wo Long is inventive and an adventure worth taking even if it’s technically suspect on PS5, but won’t live massively long in the memory once you’ve slain your final boss.”
