Sony held a press conference on the eve of ChinaJoy 2025 in Beijing today where it revealed the next wave of its China Hero Project.
Throughout the presentation it announced that it will be financing third-person shooter EXILEDGE and character action game Daba: Land of Water Scar.
It also revealed strategic alliances with Virtuous, the developer of remake Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater, and RichTap.
While it wasn’t explicitly mentioned during the presentation, it’s likely that all of the above projects will be PS5 console exclusives, considering the platform holder is investing in them. It also financed the upcoming Lost Soul Aside, which is due out next month on PS5 and PC.
EXILEDGE is described as a “high-speed third-person shooter game”, blending gunplay with character action elements. It’s being built using Unreal Engine.
Meanwhile, Daba: Land of Water Scar is an action game telling the tale of a “humanoid clay puppet”.
There’ll be more news about the China Hero Project, including gameplay and trailers, throughout the weekend, and we’ll bring you everything as it breaks here. In the meantime, what are your thoughts on these new partnerships?
