PS5 RPG Loulan: The Cursed Sand published by Sony as part of China Hero Project
Loulan: The Cursed Sand is being funded and published by Sony Interactive Entertainment under its China Hero Project program. The RPG is set along the ancient trade route of the Silk Road that passed through China, with players stepping into the role of “a skeletal warrior wielding the power of sand.”
Check out the announcement trailer below:
We’re getting a lot of Prince of Persia and PS3-era God of War vibes here. And perhaps that’s why it didn’t come as too much of a surprise when we read that ChillyRoom is comprised of developers who have worked at studios like Sony Santa Monica, FromSoftware, and PlatinumGames.
“Inspired by the archaeological discovery of the Xiaohe Princess, the story follows the Cursed Sand, a royal guard resurrected after death, as he embarks on a tragic journey to find the lost Princess of Loulan,” ChillyRoom wrote on the PS Blog.
For context, the Princess of Xiaohe’s mummy was discovered in 2003 in a cemetery in China. She is said to have been buried approximately 3,800 years ago.
