Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty is set to kick off March 2023's Xbox Game Pass lineup in style, arriving as a day one release across Xbox and PC on March 3rd. Ahead of that launch, players can go hands-on with a free demo that will be live for the next month-or-so - and any progress made in this demo carries over to the full game!
However, as with a lot of 'soulslikes', Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty is going to take some beating, so developer Team Ninja has shared some tips on how to do just that. Alongside the above walkthrough, the team has dropped some hints for players to soak up before heading into Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty's demon-ridden world.

One tip is to properly take advantage of the game's various systems, including 'morale rank', 'spirit gauge' and 'wizardry spells'. Your spirit gauge is built up by landing normal blows, which feeds into the morale rank system. Morale is gained by "defeating enemies or by landing Martial Arts attacks, Spirit attacks, or a Fatal Strike", so making use of your spirits sounds key to survival.
Elsewhere, utilising your surroundings seems like sound advice as well. You can climb up to ledges to perform 'death from above' moves - while parrying and finding enemy weak spots in the heat of battle is essential to land fatal strikes and defeat your foes.
If you feel ready to head into battle prior to the full game launch, the 'final demo' for Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty is now live on Xbox. As we mentioned before, your progress will carry right over to Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty's Xbox Game Pass launch, and you have until March 27th to give the demo a whirl!

Damn... Another Souls-Like game that I will never touch but want to play because it looks beautiful and amazing... oh well.
Finished the Demo over the weekend and like it, but man the parrying system is a serious downgrade from Sekiro. From the Demo it looks to be a better game than Nioh, just couldn't get on with that.
I have to finish the demo. I've tried it, but I have to finish Yakuza Kiwami 2 before the 3rd.
I was half-expecting the tips to be "git gud" lol
I don't even know if I'll be good enough to play this, but I'll give it go. But I'm currently in the middle of another game.
@NarutosBiggestFan just curious, why not play it then. It's pretty good for a non from software game. If it's that you don't like the difficulty it just takes perceverance. Anyone can get through these games. It took me a ton of tries to beat a couple of the demo bosses..
@FreqMode That is exactly what I don't want to do is have to try a bunch of times to beat an enemy, two or 3 MAX at the very end game is one thing, but every boss being extremely hard to beat just doesnt sound fun. I will check it out on gamepass and watch people play on Twitch, but if this has any features such as when you die, you start hours back in the game and lose all the things you collected up to that point, or permadeath or anything like that, then i have no interest in playing.
