Hidden Dragon Legend, which is powered by Unreal Engine 4, is a 2.5D action platformer indie title that transports players to Imperial China.

In the game, players will utilize all their skills in combat, acrobatics, and puzzle-solving to navigate their way through tough enemies, powerful bosses and Metroidvania-style puzzles while building their fighter through an extensive skill tree that allows players to customize their fighting style. In the game world, competing factions vie to obtain a powerful object called the Dragon Cauldron, which grants inhuman powers at the cost of sanity and reason. When the player character finds he has been put under the spell of the Dragon Cauldronby a dark faction, making him a mere puppet forced to kill, he ventures forth to settle the score.

The player’s fighter character can equip over a dozen different blade weapons, from a simple iron sword to enchanted blades powered by elemental and divine forces.

Players will start the game with the humble Rusted Iron sword, but as they progress they can add elemental weapons such as Shattered Cloud, a blade infused with the power of wind, or Tiger Tooth, a sword with inlaid with a row of tiger teeth that can cut to the bone. Other, even more powerful weapons can be unlocked, including Hidden Dragon, a sword forged from the remains of the mighty artifact, Dragon Cauldron. Quick striking daggers are also available, including the poison-dealing Blood Drainer and the water-based Storm Breaker. With this powerful array of blades at their disposal, players can choose the right tool for their fighting style and the opponents at hand.
