NetEase’s ‘Sword of Justice’ Announces Global Launch for November 7th

NetEase Games and ZhuRong Studio have officially revealed the worldwide release date for their ambitious, open-world Wuxia-themed MMORPG, Sword of Justice. The highly-anticipated title, which has already been a massive success in Asia, is set to launch globally on Thursday, November 7, 2025.

The free-to-play game will bring its dynamic martial arts combat, rich Eastern fantasy world, and groundbreaking AI-powered NPC system to players across multiple platforms simultaneously. This launch aims to capture the global audience eager for a high-quality, non-pay-to-win Wuxia experience, a genre that blends martial arts with heroic fantasy, often referred to as “The Pulsing Martial World.”

Key Launch Details: Cross-Platform and Pre-Registration Milestones

The global launch of Sword of Justice is designed for maximum accessibility, supporting full cross-platform play to allow players to seamlessly continue their journey regardless of their device. The game will be available for download on:

• PC: Via Steam and a dedicated Windows client.
• Mobile: On both iOS and Android.

The global community has already shown overwhelming interest, with the game surpassing one million pre-registrations in the West. This impressive figure is a testament to the game’s popularity and the demand for high-fidelity, open-world MMORPGs on mobile and PC.

Pre-Registration is Still Ongoing

Players who have not yet signed up can still participate in the global pre-registration campaign to secure exclusive launch rewards. The current pre-registration drive offers players the chance to earn in-game bonuses and even enter a raffle for high-value prizes, including a Nintendo Switch 2 console.

Reaching higher pre-registration milestones will unlock increasingly valuable in-game items for the entire player base once the game launches. Rewards often include essential resources like Ornate Jades (a premium currency), Banknotes, and unique cosmetic titles or mounts.

What to Expect from Sword of Justice

Sword of Justice promises a fresh take on the MMORPG genre, built around the rich cultural tapestry of the 12th century Northern Song Dynasty in China. Highlights of the game include:

• Grind-Free Progression: The game focuses on a unique “Converging Paths” system that rewards various playstyles, including combat, exploration, and peaceful pastimes like farming, fishing, and trading. The developers have emphasized a fair, skill-based progression model, aiming to eliminate traditional pay-to-win mechanics.
• Dynamic AI NPCs: A key feature of the game is its advanced, intelligent NPC system. NPCs are designed to remember player actions and respond with lifelike personalities, creating a truly dynamic and reactive world.
• High-End Visuals: The game utilizes cutting-edge technology, including ray tracing, to deliver what NetEase claims are industry-leading graphics on both PC and mobile.

With its launch set for November 7, 2025, Sword of Justice is positioned to be a major contender in the global MMORPG market, delivering an immersive and socially engaging Wuxia universe.
