San Diego and Beijing, December 19, 2024 – CreateAI (formerly TuSimple) a global leader in artificial intelligence technology, today unveils “Heroes of Jin Yong” Wuxia AAA open-world Open World Role-Playing Game (Open World RPG) based on the legendary Louis Cha (Jin Yong)’s intellectual property (IP). The announcement comes following the company’s official rebranding to CreateAI and other major advancements in its new strategic initiatives.

Emblematic of its ambitious launch into the cultural and entertainment sector, CreateAI curated a series of meticulously planned Wuxia culture projects that reflect the company’s profound appreciation for this martial arts culture that embodies chivalry, heroism, loyalty, justice, and other attributes that the CreateAI wishes to celebrate from Asia to the world.

Recently, CreateAI unveiled several highly anticipated games and animation projects, sparking a wave of enthusiasm for Wuxia culture. These include “Heroes of Jin Yong”; the Wuxia RPG “Ho Tu Lo Shu: The Books of the Dragon”; the Wuxia pixel RPG “Hero's Adventure”; and, the Wuxia anime “Zhen Dao Ge 3: Snow Sealed in the Lone City”. These releases have ignited a resurgence of interest in the Wuxia genre.

Among this plethora of projects, “Heroes of Jin Yong” stands out as particularly noteworthy. This game, developed using Unreal Engine 5, is officially licensed by Minghe Press and based on Louis Cha’s iconic works. Rooted in traditional culture, the game recreates classic characters and over 120 legendary scenes from his Wuxia novels. Building on this foundation, it presents an expansive 960-square-kilometer world teeming with diverse gameplay, rich side stories, and unparalleled freedom, offering players an immersive Wuxia experience.

Louis Cha (Jing Yong)’s Wuxia novels seamlessly blend elements of traditional Chinese culture, creating the positive and energetic "Wuxia Culture" and a diverse array of heroic characters. The game “Heroes of Jin Yong” represents CreateAI's modern reinterpretation of the Wuxia universe, leveraging new technologies and contemporary perspectives. More than just an Wuxia open-world game, it serves as a testament to the enduring legacy and preservation of the Wuxia spirit for the modern era.

In the context of today's globalization, the international dissemination of positive Chinese culture has become increasingly significant and can act as a unifier rather than a divider amongst people. Outstanding cultural works serve as crucial vehicles for showcasing Chinese and broader Asian heritage, and the key to bringing this culture to the world lies in introducing these exceptional creations to global audiences. In mid-2024, the game “Black Myth: Wukong” became a worldwide sensation, capturing the attention of countless international players and sparking interest in Journey to the West and other aspects of Chinese mythology.

Another traditional cultural domain, Wuxia also requires key and exceptional works—those that embody the profound essence of Chinese culture while aligning with the aesthetic preferences and expectations international audiences have for Chinese elements. Such works can enhance global understanding and appreciation of Chinese culture, driving its globalization and presenting Wuxia culture as a distinguished "cultural calling card" to the world. Importantly, it also enables a window of access to Chinese people and a point of connection across current cultural or political barriers.  

CreateAI's mission is to infuse Wuxia culture with new vitality through the integration of modern technology and art. By leveraging AIGC (Artificial Intelligence-Generated Content) technology to reduce development time, CreateAI aims to authentically recreate China's breathtaking landscapes and bring Wuxia culture to life in innovative ways. Its vision is to create the nation’s leading Wuxia IP and build an immersive Jin Yong Wuxia universe, spreading the unique influence of Chinese Wuxia culture to every corner of the globe.
