The story so far
What we know about Wo Long 2: Wings of Ember
Wo Long 2: Wings of Ember is a dark fantasy Three Kingdoms action RPG from Team NINJA, published by Koei Tecmo. It is the sequel to Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty and was announced on 7 June 2026. The official description sets it in the late Eastern Han period, when warlords fought for supremacy, with a nameless champion rising like a phoenix from the fires of war to face powerful enemies and demons across large battlefields.
The developer describes fast-paced combat that combines attack and defence with evolved Chinese martial arts actions, including Insight Skills for evasion and counterattacks. Dynamic open fields recreate Three Kingdoms battles, and the game supports single-player and online co-op. Coverage of the alpha demo also points to character creation and a Changban open field area, though the demo was a work in progress.
Wo Long 2 releases on 4 March 2027 for PS5, Xbox Series X|S, Switch 2 and PC (Steam and Microsoft Store), and is confirmed for Game Pass. Pre-orders are open in Standard and Digital Deluxe editions, the latter including a Season Pass with two DLC releases planned for 2027. A time-limited alpha demo ran on PS5, Xbox Series and PC until 30 September 2026.
