Alright, let’s dive in. So, like, earlier this year—wait, maybe it was June? Yeah, definitely June—there’s this game called Blood Message that popped up. Some folks are saying it might drop around 2026. It’s cooking up over at 24 Entertainment, which is, you know, part of NetEase. Honestly, I never really got the hang of remembering all these developers, but they’re the guys behind Naraka: Bladepoint. Anyway, Blood Message is supposed to be this third-person action thing for both PC and consoles. Cool, right?
Oh, right—there was this trailer on June 19. Let’s just say, if you like a good father-son road trip through Ancient China kinda vibe, this might be your jam. It’s set in the Tang Dynasty’s waning days. Sounds poetic, but also like it could really complicate things. And get this, it’s narrative-driven. They’re pulling on those heartstrings. I guess it’s also their first stab at a single-player AAA game, so, fingers crossed!
Had a quick peek on Twitter too—thanks to our friend, Lunatic Ignus (props for the name). I guess they mentioned expecting a second-half-of-2026 release, with a $70 price tag. Surprise, surprise, it’s sooner than anyone thought. The game’s been stewing since way back in 2018, apparently. And it was meant to be revealed in 2023? I don’t know, the timelines are wack. But suddenly, it’s all coming together so fast!
Oh, here’s something wild: rumors say it’s got some God of War vibes. The director being buddies with Feng Ji from Black Myth: Wukong just adds fuel to the fire. Could mean we see some elements blending into Blood Message. That feels like a major win if true.
This leak? It’s like picking a lock on treasure chest of nerdy info. Sure, take it with a grain—or a whole shaker—of salt. But Lunatic Ignus did have a hit with the PS5 Pro prediction, right? Same ballpark, maybe.
And hey, the gaming bar’s high now because of stuff like Black Myth: Wukong. Expectations are through the roof! Throw in a few more like Phantom Blade Zero and Tides of Annihilation—yep, expectations just multiplied. Wonder how Blood Message will stack up? Could just surprise us all, or fizzle. Time will tell, I guess.
Okay, that’s me done for now. Let’s see what happens next!
