A new Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty update is now live on PC and consoles, introducing plenty of quality-of-life improvements, balance changes, and bug fixes for a smoother experience.
Update 1.05 introduces new lock-on options that allow automatic target switching when deflecting enemy attacks, as well as the ability to lock on to the nearest enemy by pressing the right stick and change the rotation and tracing speed for the lock-on camera.
The new Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty update also brings some changes for Reinforcements, as the menu now shows warriors that have sworn oaths with the player but are not available as companions. Additionally, it will be possible to dismiss companions via the Reinforcements menu, which could only be done previously with the Willow Branch item. Among the new quality-of-life improvements brought by the update is a new interface that allows players to compare equipment from the menu, check mark icons for completed missions in the Travel menu, and more.
The Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty 1.05 update also introduces plenty of balance changes, such as adjusted item drop rates for bosses, invading players and enemies with higher Morale Ranks than the player, and multiple bug fixes. You can find the full update notes on the game’s official website.
Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty is the latest game from Team NINJA and a solid action game that fans of the Nioh series and Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin will surely enjoy, despite the streamlining of certain features like the RPG mechanics, movesets, and loot system. These changes, and the somewhat lower challenge level, make the game perfect to get into masocore games, as I highlighted in my review.
Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty is now available on PC, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, and Xbox One. The game is also available via Xbox Game Pass on PC and Xbox.
