Free-to-Play Open-World RPG Project Mugen Announced

NetEase announced their brand new free-to-play open-world RPG titled Project Mugen. It will be coming to the PS4, PS5, PC, and mobile devices. Pre-registration for Project Mugen is currently open, although details about its forthcoming release have not yet been revealed.

Developed by NetEase Games and Thunder Fire Studios’s Naked Rain, Project Mugen will combine a modern aesthetic with fantastical elements. The goal is apparently to create a brand new urban paradise for players to explore. As they team up with different psychics, people can uncover mysteries, recover lost memories, explore different cities and their nightlife scene, and find the key to saving the world. Players will be able to control psychics called “Infinite Trigger” to fight off paranormal enemies that threaten humanity.

Players can team up with four characters, utilize different environmental objects, and synergize attacks with other characters to take on monsters within the city. They will also be able to explore the open-world city by utilizing parkour, swinging, wall climbing, weapon riding, and driving cars and motorcycles. There will be a variety of locations to see including neon-lit clubs, serene parks, massive skyscrapers, sprawling subways, and beyond.

The reveal trailer showing off story details and a first-look at the game in action can be viewed below.

NetEase also revealed direct screenshots from the game on the official Project Mugen website.

Project Mugen is set to release on the PS4, PS5, PC, iOS, and Android devices.
