Blade of Vengeance: Night Raid at Swift Peak Pass

Step into a third-person, realistic stealth experience rooted in the true 1933 miracle. You play as a soldier of the 29th Army’s Dadao Squad, taking part in a night raid at Swift Peak Pass where “men had courage, but no guns.” The night falls in a breathtaking Unreal Engine 5 landscape, turning the pass into a dangerous theatre of shadow and resolve.

What makes this a living war drama is not just combat but immersion. The game blends historical events with an immersive theatrical vibe: Peking opera music accompanies every moment, and all characters wear stylized masks, turning battle into a poignant performance of duty, fate, and endurance.

Masterful light and shadow define your approach. Forget gadgets—success hinges on skill and placement. A cutting-edge dynamic lighting system forces you to hide in darkness, slip through grass, and move unseen to outmaneuver lethal snipers. From behind or to the side, you can execute more than six distinct Dadao techniques, shaping yourself into the enemy’s most elusive shadow.

A signature parry adds a bold, bullet-deflecting twist. At the exact moment an enemy fires, you can deflect the bullet and seize a perfect counterattack opportunity, testing your reflexes and rewarding precise timing with dramatic, cinematic payoff.

The mission scope goes beyond eliminating foes. You’ll destroy ammo dumps, neutralize artillery positions, and assassinate key commanders. Rescue captured villagers, collect scattered dadaos, and occupy temporary camps—each objective revealing another facet of the night raid and unlocking Steam achievements tied to the broader historical narrative.

The campaign is faithful to history, featuring four large levels that reproduce the four main assault routes of the two night raids. In 2–5 hours, you’ll experience the full arc of the battle, with story-driven collectibles and narration enriching the context of the 29th Army’s courage in the face of scarcity.

Join this stirring war drama and carry the legacy of the Dadao spirit through the darkness. Add Blade of Vengeance: Night Raid at Swift Peak Pass to your roster and bear witness to the heroism that emerged “when men had courage, but no guns.”
