Beautiful scenic landscapes and designs
Heroes of Jin Yong lets you experience Jianghu World from Jin Yong’s works for yourself, with vast lands boasting dynamic and immersive environments.
There’s a day-night cycle with seasonal changes, so no two days are ever the same. Perhaps one day you will be caught in the drizzling spring rain, and later, you’ll find the scorching summer heat of the Central Plains bearing down on you. If you aren’t a fan of the heat, you can look forward to the crisp autumn of Guanlong or the bitter cold of winter in the Western Regions.
There are over 100 main and side quests for you to complete over the course of the game, all taking various shapes and sizes. These include sect conflicts, historical allusions, and Jianghu grudges. You can choose the quests you want, allowing for a more personalised and tailored gaming experience.
