GUANGZHOU, China – (Feb 5th, 2026) – NetEase Games, the online games division of NetEase, Inc. (NASDAQ: NTES, HKEX: 9999), and ZhuRong Studio today announced the launch of the Sword of Justice Spring Festival Update, arriving on February 5 across PC and mobile. The Spring Festival Update will bring new systems, events, and narratives to the world of Sword of Justice during the festive season.

Sword of Justice is an open world MMORPG for mobile and PC devices that’s completely free to play without pay-to-win elements. Set in a world inspired by the Northern Song Dynasty in 12th-century China, Sword of Justice allows players to live out their Wuxia fantasies in a stunning Eastern aesthetic world.

New Adventures, New Quests, New Challenges!

This update introduces brand-new adventure stories scattered across the world, inviting players to embark on even deeper exploration. As you journey through the martial realm, you will encounter Qi Shaoshang, the charismatic leader of Cloudcrest Fortress. By strengthening your bond with him and unlocking his Ties storyline, players can uncover his untold past and experience new stories that have yet to be revealed.

Male Sylph Joins the World as Gender Switch Feature Is Introduced

The Spring Festival Update introduces the Male Sylph, expanding character representation alongside the launch of the new Gender Switch feature, which could be unlocked through a mysterious arcane technique.

After the update, all players will receive a Yin-Yang Transformation Pill via in-game mail, allowing them to freely switch their character’s gender. Upon switching, all character development, gameplay progress, existing outfits, dye customizations, and Love relationship progression will be automatically converted and fully preserved.

Celebrate the Spring Festival With Rewards and Limited-Time Events

Throughout the Spring Festival event period, players can take part in special Spring Festival sign-in campaigns, earning a wide range of rewards including discount coupons, Hero Invites, and exclusive outfits.

In addition, limited-time festivities such as Fortune’s Arrival and Spring Festival Fireworks transform the world with celebratory visuals and events, while offering opportunities to collect Ethereal Stones and test one’s luck for rare and valuable rewards.

New Content Expands Playstyle Choices

This update introduces a range of new content that further expands the Sword of Justice gameplay experience across both social interaction and competitive combat.

On the social side, the Spring Festival limited-time event “Trickster’s House – Boast Dice” makes its debut. This social mini-game centers on psychological mind games, where players roll dice and make calculated decisions by reading their opponents. Victory depends not only on luck, but also on wit, intuition, and the ability to bluff.

For players seeking a more action-driven experience, a brand-new 6v6 Martial Arts Tournament mode has been added. Taking place in a dedicated arena, these fast-paced team battles emphasize coordination, speed, and individual skill. By participating in the tournament, players can earn Martial Honor Points, which can be exchanged for cosmetic rewards and appearance items.

Together, these new additions offer a wide range of fresh gameplay experience after the Spring Festival update.

New Spring Festival Outfits and Exclusive Items

The update also introduces the Spring Festival Phoenix Outfit Pack, available for a limited time. This special outfit pack comes with a range of exclusive enhancements, including coordinated makeup options, a black-haired avatar style, unique visual effects, and a special “Leader of Dragons” MVP animation. Together, these additions allow players to celebrate the Spring Festival in style while further expressing their individuality within the world of Sword of Justice.
