LoreVault Studio, in collaboration with NEXON Games, is ready to put Korean folklore on the global gaming map with Woochi the Wayfarer, an Unreal Engine 5-powered action-adventure headed to PC (Steam), PlayStation, and Xbox. We’ve seen plenty of Chinese developers making waves in the global market with ambitious, culture-rich games, but now it’s Korea’s turn. And if this first look is anything to go by, Woochi the Wayfarer is going to deliver a mix of history, magic, and myth that’s hard to ignore.
The game follows the adventures of Jeon Woochi, The Mage of the Way, a powerful trickster who uses his abilities to take down the corrupt and stand up for the innocent. Expect a single-player adventure that blends magical landscapes, traditional Korean monsters, and a rich, atmospheric soundtrack into something that feels both fresh and deeply rooted in history.
The newly released teaser trailer, just over two minutes long, wastes no time setting the tone. It opens with Myoan, a mysterious shaman, chanting an incantation — the kind that sends chills up your spine — before cutting to Woochi’s silhouette in a misty, dense forest. From there, things escalate into a tense, magical showdown...
