Early Release Possible for Blood Message

Alright, so there’s this game called Blood Message. Not that I’d heard of it last month, but voilà, here it is. They say it’s dropping in 2026. Feels almost like yesterday they started talking about it. Anyway, the folks behind it—24 Entertainment? Owned by NetEase, because of course they are—are whipping up this third-person kind of thing. You know, action-adventure, razzmatazz on PCs and other flashy consoles. Ah, gaming life!

So picture this: It’s June 19, year not important, and boom! An announcement trailer hits. The game’s about some dad and kid, wandering through Ancient China. Tang Dynasty, in its twilight years. Shadows of history and epic journeys, if you’re into that. So yeah, the studio, they did Naraka: Bladepoint before, and now, they’re diving into a single-player AAA experience. First one for them, supposedly.

And guess what? Only a few juicy leaks spilling all over the internet. Heard someone whispered about Blood Message sneaking into our lives with a $70 tag. Honestly, who sets these prices? Anyway, it might show up sooner than fanatics expected. Random trivia: seems like this thing was greenlit in 2018 and then folks actually started getting their hands dirty in 2021.

Whoa, almost forgot. God of War vibes apparently run deep here. A source (who? Some guy on Twitter, Lunatic Ignus, of all names) mentioned it, saying the game director’s buds with Black Myth: Wukong’s lead honcho. Just a crazy mash-up of inspirations or something. Tangents, love them or hate them.

By now, you’d expect enthusiasts, God of War peeps, and the Black Myth loving crowd to be buzzing. Leaks? Take them, leave them. But hey, that Ignus dude did predict that PS5 Pro splash date, so maybe he’s onto something.

China’s really throwing its hat in the AAA ring these days, thanks to Black Myth: Wukong setting a bar. And there’s buzz about other titles like Phantom Blade Zero. Yeah, maybe Blood Message will stir up the pot too. Will it, though? Magic 8-Ball says “ask again later.”
