In one of the most unexp🗹ected announcements of the night, the Wu-Tang Clan is getting its own "action RPG" by Brass Lion Entertainment, entitled Wu-Tang: Rise of the Deceiver.

At the event, we received a brief trailer showcasing a 3D beat 'em up with Spiderverse-esque visuals. The tra🏅iler didn't give much away, but host Lucy James referred to the title as a "cooperat﷽ive action RPG."

Save Shaolin

The game's premise involves the Wu-Tang Clan passi🗹ng on their powers to a new generation of heroes to save their home of Shaolin. It's a sort of crossover between the Wu-Tang Clan and their namesake, the Hong Kong martial arts film Shaolin and Wu Tang.

"Ghostface Killah is 🎶calling on you to rescue his Wu brothers - who aid you in your battle to save the dreams of the people. Defeat the forces of the Deceiver to elevate Shaolin into a hopeful and thriving community," reads .

The gameplay appears to centre around d🔜efeating increasingly more powerful enemies in an arena, while earning the powers of the various Wu-Tang members along the way.

The soundtrack of Rise of the Deceive𒀰r will feature classic Wu-Tang Clan tracks and "new material, overseen by legendary producer Just Blaze."

According to Brass Lion, the game was originally conceived as a tie-in to Angel of Dust, a "supernatural thriller produced by 🗹Ghostface Killah, to be directed by RZA..." It🉐 would appear Rise of the Deceiver has grown beyond that conception, but may still tie in to the movie in some form.

Brass Lion Entertainment is a New York-based entertainment studio, founded by Bryna🙈 Dabby Smith (Def Jam Vendetta, Sleeping Dogs) and 💎Rashad Redic (Fallout 3, Skyrim). Wu-Tang: Rise of the Deceiver appears to be Brass Lion's debut title.

A release d𒐪ate was not given for Wu-Tang: Rise o𒈔f the Deceiver.
