About the Game

During the darkest time, we experienced separation and death.

The aggressor’s cavalry disintegrated our nation, provoking flames of war on every corner of our homeland.

We’re the unyielding Northeast Anti-Japanese United Army passing through the snowy forest.

We’re the eternal radio wave secretly transmitted in the desperate situation.

We’re the waves roaring in the canal. We’re the dagger driven into enemies’ hearts.

We’re the Great Wall standing on the peak of TaiHang Mountains and built with flesh and blood.

We’re the Defiant! Grab the weapon and become one of us!

SCENE - RETURN TO THE CRITICAL MOMENTS IN HISTORY

You’re stepping on the land irrigated with warm blood. Boundless snowy forest, heavily guarded lanes, dangerous villages behind the enemy lines... In these places you’ll experience the serious atmosphere during the War of Resistance against Japanese invasion.

LEVEL - IMMERSE YOURSELF IN DIFFERENT LEVELS

Every plant and every brick here are silently recounting the undeniable historical facts.

GUN - WEAPONS ARE THE ECHOES OF HISTORY

What you hold is not only a weapon, but also a memory passing through centuries, a proof of history. You can use dozens of guns in this game, including rifles, assault rifles, pistols and machine guns. The classic Hanyang Rifle, the legendary Mauser Military Pistol and MP18 Submachine Gun, as well as other weapons showing up in modern history of China... Convert them into your survival instinct and blaze a trail on the battlefield full of dangers.

GAMEPLAY - SEE THE FIERCE BATTLEFIELD FOR YOURSELF

You’re no longer an audience. When the enemy’s searchlight illuminates the sky, the point when the vengeful dagger is pushed into the aggressor... This is not a sealed memory. This is a call of justice in your blood.

Now it’s your turn to become the light in the darkest time and become history itself.
