Shanhai is an open-world survival game set against the backdrop of the Classic of Mountains and Seas and the Sanxingdui culture. You and your friends will travel to an ancient, otherworldly realm armed with modern scientific knowledge. In this world full of mythical creatures, you will use your knowledge in combination with the magic of the otherworld to survive. Here, you can choose to enjoy a peaceful life with the mythical creatures from the Classic of Mountains and Seas or uncover the great conspiracy hidden behind this world, revealing the mysterious powers behind the history of the Classic of Mountains and Seas and Sanxingdui.
Science and Magic Bringing modern scientific knowledge to a magical world—how will you combine them? Use your creativity to craft unique tools or weapons!
Multiplayer Cooperation You can choose to survive on your own, but it's recommended to befriend the mythical creatures living here. With their help, your survival will become much easier. However, it's best to call on your friends as well—only through cooperation can you unravel the mysterious forces behind this world.
Riding Some of the creatures in this world can be used for riding. With their help, you can explore this world more efficiently across land, sky, and sea.
Building Use the resources you gather to build your ideal home. Remember to involve your creatures—they’re great workers, and with their help, you might even build a palace.
Farming Collect various plant seeds in the world and start your own farm. You can plant, water, and harvest—though these tasks can be efficiently handled by your creatures as well.
Breeding Mythical creatures can be bred and reproduced. The offspring will inherit some traits from their parents. Breed and nurture your strongest creatures through careful cultivation.
