About the Game

A burning land, whose destiny will your blade sever?

1597, the Imjin War. The fires of war once again engulf the mountains and rivers of Joseon. <Haedong Bisa> is more than just an action game; it is an authentic story-driven Wuxia RPG where your choices shape the historical narrative.

From Naju to Hanyang, you are not merely a swordsman, but the protagonist of an epic saga. Whether a cold-blooded avenger or a righteous savior of the people, every decision you make alters the fate of Joseon and the man's final path.

  • A History Written by You: Countless unpredictable branch points. Every dialogue and choice shifts the flow of the narrative, leading you to your own unique ending.

  • Living Ink Wash Painting: The raw breath of 16th-century Joseon is brought to life through a unique Sumi-e inspired visual style.

  • Immersive Historical Setting: Thoroughly researched locations—from Naju and Hampyeong to Hanyang—and period-accurate details provide a profound weight to your story.

Fate in the Midst of War: Where Will Your Secret History Lead?

A legacy carved in ink, a path forged in the flames of war. In the war-torn Joseon Dynasty, every stroke of the brush defines a life. Complete your own "Bisa" (Secret History) through total freedom of equipment and deep, pivotal choices.

This unofficial history, blooming in traditional ink wash aesthetics, moves only by your fingertips.
