Last month, it was reported by Bloomberg that NetEase had made the decision to stop funding Gang of Dragon. The game was only revealed at the end of last year, but reports claim another ¥7 billion (~$44 million) is needed to finish development. This was apparently one reason why NetEase has decided to walk away from the project.
This is the first update and sign of life — or, rather, a lack of it — since then, leading to concern the game will never make it to release.
“Shin Ji-seong — portrayed by renowned Asian actor Ma Dong-seok — is a high-ranking member of a Korean crime syndicate based in Kabukicho. As he explores the streets of Shinjuku, Shin becomes entangled in underworld conflicts and forges intense, human connections that push him to confront his own sense of purpose,” is how the promising title was pitched upon its unveiling.
