Genigods: Nezha Announced for PS5 and PC, Targeting 2028 Launch

The studio says a PS5 Pro build is already with PlayStation China, signaling close technical collaboration with Sony.

Overview

  • Genigods Lab unveiled a single-player action RPG rooted in Chinese genesis mythology, planned for release on PlayStation 5 and PC via Steam and Epic Games Store in 2028.
  • Built in Unreal Engine 5, the project is being optimized for PlayStation in collaboration with Sony and will leverage PS5 features such as DualSense support.
  • Developers describe fast, cinematic combat influenced by early God of War rather than a Soulslike, featuring dual ground and aerial stances, Fluidmystic abilities, and relic-fusion skills.
  • Players will face colossal-scale encounters like climbing towering gods and traversing the Sun Tree with Kuafu to shoot down the nine suns.
  • The team emphasizes a traditional, non-live-service design with no gacha mechanics, estimating roughly 25 hours for the main story and about 50 hours to fully complete.
