About
Tianji: Shadow of the Ancients is a turn-based RPG set in the Tang Dynasty, blending classic RPG mechanics with a combo-focused battle system. This delivers both the satisfying impact of an action game and deep strategic play. Players will step into the shoes of the amnesiac protagonist, Shangguan Shuo. On a journey to reclaim his past and true identity, he will explore the landscapes of Bashu and a mysterious millennium-old subterranean city, gradually becoming entangled in the massive conspiracy of the mysterious Xuanxin Order.
An Epic Story of the Tang Dynasty and the Mystery of the Bronze Mask
Set during the turbulent Tianbao era of the Tang Dynasty, the story of Tianji: Shadow of the Ancients begins as the Imperial Court’s secret organization, the Tianji Guard, investigates a millennium-old ruin in Bashu. During the mission, the commanding general dons an eerie bronze mask, loses his mind, and spirals out of control, leaving the organization existing in name only.
Months later, the mysterious Xuanxin Order rises rapidly in the region through the use of masks and spiritual arts. The amnesiac protagonist, Shangguan Shuo, awakens in one of the Order’s strongholds with only two clues in his possession: a Tianji Guard fish token and a strange mask. To recover the truth of his identity, Shangguan Shuo embarks on a suspenseful journey, gradually uncovering the shocking conspiracy behind the Xuanxin Order.
