If you’ve ever dreamed of stepping into a breathtaking Wuxia world where your choices actually matter, mark your calendars because NetEase Games just dropped a bombshell. Their newest open-world MMORPG, Sword of Justice, is officially opening global pre-registration, and this one’s looking like a must-watch.
What is Sword of Justice?
Developed by ZhuRong Studio under NetEase Games, Sword of Justice is a free-to-play open-world MMORPG that’s equal parts cinematic, cultural, and cutting-edge. Set in the Northern Song Dynasty, it brings the vivid, romanticized world of Wuxia to life on both PC and mobile (iOS and Android).

The game already made waves in China with 40 million players in its first month and over 1.1 million pre-registrations on Day One. Now, it’s coming to the rest of the world—with ray-traced visuals, AI-powered NPCs, and the promise of a completely P2W-free ecosystem.
AI-Powered NPCs that actually remember you?
Thanks to NetEase’s proprietary AI and DeepSeek integration, every single NPC has a memory, a personality, and the ability to react to your past actions.
So if you’re used to NPCs that just parrot lines and forget your name, this game might change your standards for good.
Visuals so pretty, it hurts

Partnering with NVIDIA for next-level ray tracing, the game delivers jaw-dropping visuals with reflections, shadows, and cinematic lighting that you’d expect from a AAA console title.
Even in intense 360° combat, frame rates stay smooth. Basically: it’s giving main character energy, no matter what device you’re on.

Go solo or squad up
Into guilds, romantic subplots, or sworn brotherhoods? You’ll find those. Prefer to do your own thing? The game gives you 100+ hours of solo content plus intelligent AI companions to join you in raids. Sword of Justice lets you play your way.
No P2W? Seriously!
Yep. The devs promise no pay-to-win mechanics. Progress is based on gameplay, not how much you spend. With seasonal resets and a hard cap on attributes, it’s all about skill, not swiping your credit card.
