Oof, okay, where do I even start with this? Oh right, there’s this game. Wuchang: Fallen Feathers, yeah? It’s about to drop and folks are buzzing, which is fair ’cause it’s one of those Soulslike games—y’know, the ones that make you wanna throw your controller? But hey, it’s got a cool angle this time, with a whole Ming Dynasty vibe. I mean, it really does seem like Leenzee, the crew behind it, might’ve nailed something intriguing. Not even kidding.
So, what’s the scoop, you ask? Well, everyone’s been giving it the thumbs up whenever it’s popped up before. Now we’re down to the wire with its launch, and suddenly—boom!—some new intel drops from the devs. It’s like they’ve been holding it back just to give us some last-minute excitement. Classic, right?
Get this, Wuchang is making its big entrance on July 24. It’s hitting PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X/S. Oh, and if you’re on Game Pass for PC or Xbox, it’s like Christmas came early for you. One mystery, though, was what gear you’d need to make it all smooth sailing. Apparently, they’re not loading this one with the fanciest graphics tech like Black Myth: Wukong, so running it on older systems won’t make them scream in agony. Relieving, huh?
Real talk, Leenzee threw two versions of PC specs our way. Minimum and recommended, they call ’em. But hold on, they didn’t say how many frames you’ll get or what resolution — I mean, come on. Just something important: they tried these specs with upscaling enabled. Yeah, DLSS and FSR are your friends here, just a heads up.
Anyway, those specs are chill enough you can kinda guess how it’ll run. Not exactly laser-focused detail, but well, here we are… getting caught up in tech specs. Why did I even notice that? Moving on.
Minimum specs for the nerds out there: Windows 10 64bit, Intel Core i5-8400 or AMD Ryzen 5 1600, 16GB RAM (dual channel is the way to go), Nvidia GTX 1060 6GB or AMD RX 580 8GB, and a whole 60GB storage space. They say HDD is good, but SSD’s better. Yeah, thanks.
And if you’re aiming higher, go with Windows 10/11, Intel i7-9700 or AMD Ryzen 5 5500, same amount of RAM, Nvidia RTX 2070, AMD RX 5700 XT, or Intel Arc A750 for GPU. SSD strictly required. DLSS/FSR? Still on there.
Now, lemme throw in launch times for y’all globetrotters. I mean, if you’re in L.A., it kicks off July 23 at 7pm. Chicago and Bogota? 9pm. Now, if you’re partying in London or Paris, good luck keeping those eyes open, ’cause it’s at 3am and 4am, respectively. Tokyo’s cool at 11am, and Sydney? Noon. Imagine gaming during lunchtime.
Anyway, that’s your lot. If I missed something, my bad. But hey, at least now you know what you’re diving into with Wuchang. May the odds be ever in your favor—wait, wrong franchise, but you get the drift. Happy gaming!
