On June 20, Lin'an 24 Studio, a subsidiary of NetEase, officially announced the first PV of the stand-alone action adventure game "Return to Tang".This work is positioned as a "narration of small characters in big history", confirmed as an ordinary buyout system, logged on to PC and host platforms, and issued globally.The following is the first PV video content exposed:

Although the official calls itself "standard stand-alone", the quality presentation of PV is obviously comparable to the international mainstream narrative and 3A works.The game is produced by Hu Zhipeng, executive vice president of NetEase Group. It has been secretly developed by top technical teams for many years. Most of the core members of the team have rich experience in 3A single-player R&D.It was revealed that the project was inspired by the emotional touch of Hu Zhipeng when he first came into contact with the historical story of "Shazhou Returns to the Tang Dynasty".

According to official reports, the game story took place after the Anshi Rebellion, when Middle Earth was broken, Hexi was destroyed, and Shazhou was curled up in blood rule for more than 60 years.It was not until 848 AD that the unbearable righteous men rose up and restored Shazhou.In order to report to Chang'an, ten teams of messengers resolutely headed east.They will travel through the bloody and cruel purgatory on earth, step across the Gobi Desert, climb over glaciers, dance with sandstorms, north winds, and blizzards, and pave three thousand miles to return to the Tang Dynasty with flesh and blood. This is not to survive, but to ignite the spark of hope in the dark.

Officially, the game is "a hymn dedicated to the unknown heroes" because ten teams of messengers, either for stonemasons, farmers, monks, or for the elderly, heroes, and children.They have never left their name in history, but they have built the last loyal soul in the yellow sand with their bodies.

And the player will become one of the senders, step into the yellow sand all over the sky, save Hexi and return to the Tang Dynasty.

Unlike other domestic stand-alone 3A, "Return to Tang" chose historical story adaptation rather than mythological and legendary themes, and the combat style emphasizes realistic fighting, which is clearly different from soul like, martial arts style, etc. It not only breaks out of NetEase's "comfort zone", but also breaks through the current direction of domestic stand-alone games, filling the gap in historical narrative of domestic stand-alone games.

In the current global cultural industry environment, the right to interpret and discourse rights of local culture are increasingly common."Gui Tang" conveys the values ​​of "peaceful reunification" that Oriental people have pursued throughout their lives through Dunhuang aesthetics and the legendary story of the Guiyi Army to the world.

From these perspectives, we might as well give "Return to Tang" more patience and encouragement.If you want to make an appointment for a game or participate in the official subsequent experience activities, you can visit Guitang official website >>>
