'Age of Wushu' Gets Release Date

by Rainier on March 5, 2013 @ 10:00 a.m. PST

Representing more than 2,000 years of Wuxia tradition, Age of Wushu thrusts players into a personal adventure in a world where classes and levels no longer matter and where every action is judged harshly by the world around you.

Endorsed by martial artist legend and wushu champion Jet-Li, Age of Wushu is the world's first true Wuxia themed MMORPG, with cutting edge graphics and innovative gameplay. Players must journey to master the ancient Chinese art of Wushu, delving into their character's unique story and facing the consequences of every action without the crutch of MMO staples like levels and classes. From a team of 300 developers and over five years in the making,  Age of Wushu  is currently in beta and will be available as a free-to-play title on PC systems via digital download on April 10, 2013. A box retail version will be released later in April.

"Age of Wushu brings an authentic presentation of Chinese martial arts to devoted players, and with its innovative combat, cultivation and offline play, the game creates a unique martial-arts experience," said Tyler Rawlins, Age of Wushu content generation lead at Snail Games. "The beta has been a great way to connect with the player community and introduce a real world of Wushu to the Western audience. We received and incorporated an abundance of player feedback during beta and can now announce an official launch date for Age of Wushu."

A full retail box version of the game will be available in late April for $20 at select retailers and will include more than $75 of in-game bonuses.
