Our take on Xuan-Yuan Sword 2
The page gives considerable space to the included original game and its plot walkthrough, while the main game's English-language limitation is stated plainly. The bonus game is also limited to Traditional Chinese, so the bundle's extra content does not change the language constraint.
What is Xuan-Yuan Sword 2?
Seventeen years after a war between humans and demons, He Ran leaves his teacher and travels through a world where the Xuanyuan Gang hunts demons.
He meets Yang Kunshuo and Jiang Ruhong, and the three set out together. Combat and abilities use systems for spells, techniques, charms, and medicine, with actions consuming magic points, stamina, or medicinal materials. Elemental and yin-yang relationships affect spell damage. The alchemy pot can absorb weakened enemies during battle; captured creatures can later be combined outside combat, subject to a level restriction. The game includes the original Xuanyuan Sword as a bonus, available only in Traditional Chinese. The store text says Xuan-Yuan Sword 2 does not support English.
