Update 2016-02-22: Store page is up!

Greenlight page

The latest entry in the long-running Xuan-Yuan Sword series is about to come to Steam. This is the first game in the series to have an official English release. The translation quality doesn't appear to be great, just passable. Hopefully the other games of the series can also be introduced to the Western market.

Story setting:
In ancient times, the Emperor of Heaven opened the Gate of Heaven, connecting the Heaven and Earth. Mortals could ascend to the Gate to obtain divine power in order to assist in the search for the Emperor's missing daughter. Unscrupulous individuals took advantage of the Emperor's gesture, and caused the mortal world to descend into chaos. The lives of common folks were filled with anxiety and weariness. The god Fuxi and the goddess Nüwa took pity on the people and convinced the Queen of Huaxu, to close the Gate forcibly with great sacrifice. After this, no one could reach Heaven through the Gate, and no god could go to the mortal world, thus came about the Isolation of Heaven and Earth. Time passed, and the mortal realm suffered due to disasters and endless conflicts over claims to rule, embroiled in political instability and riotous events. At this time of unrest and warfare, a Heavenly entity descends, adding to the unsolved mysteries of the troubled world.

Fifth promo video for the original version.

Update: Greenlit!

P.S. The TV adaptations have very little to do with the video game series.

Never heard of the series but this actually looks pretty good. Hopefully it does well and the rest end up being localized as well :D.

Needs localization though. I wonder If we're missing a lot of good chinese-made games just because of the language or because the marketing team said that no one would buy it outside of China (just like all dem japanese games).

Looks surprisingly good. It should be able to get past greenlight in less than a week.

This deserves a release.
Not only does it look much better than the average greenlight submissions, it also shows that China has more to offer than cheap plagiarism-infested knock-offs.

It uses the Cross Dynamic Time Battle system. You control up to four characters at a time (not including optional summons), with A Qi the little piggy assisting your team and absorbing monsters. There is a real time and turn based toggle. Each character has different types of skills with different effects. All characters have a basic-attack like chain, support skills, ultimate skills, etc. Healing and support items can also be used at any time.
