What We Know About Version 2.5: Showdown in Chinatown

While international players are only just getting their first glimpse, Chinese players have already had the chance to experience some of what “Showdown in Chinatown” has to offer. Based on existing details, this update appears to be a stylish homage to classic Hong Kong martial arts cinema, complete with a gripping crime thriller storyline centered around tracking down a rogue arcanist vigilante.

The narrative will follow Officer Liang Yue, a skilled martial artist who goes undercover to infiltrate the film set of Noire — a perfectionist director with a flair for the dramatic. Despite being confined to a wheelchair, Noire wields powerful abilities that allow her to control actors like puppets in battle. Rounding out the trio is Loggerhead, a unique character whose head is quite literally a camera — bringing a surreal visual twist to the cast.
