Wu-Tang: Rise of the Deceiver, a cooperative action RPG being developed by Brass Lion Entertainment, was unveiled at Summer Game Fest 2025. The game will first be available on PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store, while console versions are planned for a later date. This announcement coincided with the start of the Wu-Tang Clan’s “Final Chamber” farewell tour. Featuring a dynamic soundtrack supervised by Just Blaze, this game promises a fusion of hip-hop culture and anime-inspired action.
The announcement was not a complete surprise, as there were already rumors of a Wu-Tang Clan-related game. Back in 2021, Jeff Grubb mentioned a project with the code name “Project Shaolin” in his leak. He described it as a hip-hop-inspired action game with dungeon crawler elements, featuring the Wu-Tang Clan, and it was allegedly initially associated with Xbox Game Studios.
In Wu-Tang: Rise of the Deceiver, you enter a surreal, Afro-futuristic version of Shaolin, a dream world under siege by a corrupting force known as the Deceiver. Led by Ghostface Killah, up to three players team up to rescue the members of the Wu-Tang Clan while using their mystical powers to fight hostile creatures through increasingly challenging levels.
The game emphasizes customization, allowing you to create unique fighting styles and outfits with powerful abilities. Additionally, the soundtrack features reimagined Wu-Tang classics like “C.R.E.A.M.” along with some new tracks, which change dynamically with the action.
