by Gary Catig
Arc System Works made mash-ups in the past between the Four Great Classical Novels of Chinese literature and the Kunio-Kun video game series with River City Saga: Three Kingdoms and River City Saga: Three Kingdoms Next. They are at it again with their latest title, River City Saga: Journey to the West.
Each of the four main characters of the game — Sun Wukong, Zhu Baije, Sha Wujing, and Tank Sansang — are all Kunio. They set out for Tianzhu on another comedic and action packed adventure.
The game includes the following features:
- A roguelike action game where you grow stronger with each run
- Obtain Secret Skills from gods who randomly appear as you progress through the stages to boost your abilities and stats. With a whopping 80 different Secret Skills available, discover your ultimate build and mow down the swarms of enemies.
- Master three different fighting styles
- Start with the speed-focused Sun Wukong, and unlock the power-focused Zhu Baije and long-range-focused Sha Wuijing as you progress through the story.
- Familiar faces from the River City Series join the fray!
- River City series characters will make appearances, sometimes aiding Kunio’s crew on their journey and other times standing in your way as bosses.
River City Saga: Journey to the West releases June 4th, 2026.
