Dawn's Edge (劍之川) opens global pre-registration, set for Q4 2026

Key takeaways

  • Global pre-registration open on Google Play and Apple App Store
  • Steam wishlist available
  • Game launches globally Q4 2026
  • Features 34 strategy cards; Sands of Salzar sold 2 million copies with 82% positive on Steam

Dawn's Edge (Chinese title: 劍之川), a new multiverse wuxia RPG from developer Han Jia Squirrel, has opened global pre-registration on Google Play and the Apple App Store, while Steam users can add the game to their wishlist. The studio says the project will launch worldwide in the fourth quarter of 2026, with Neptune handling global publishing and localization.

The game is built around a mysterious locus called the “Sword River” that connects multiple worlds; players recruit swordsmen whose fates were warped by an entity called the Mirage and guide them through interdimensional journeys to rewrite those outcomes. Presentation mixes 3D cartoon rendering with 2D dynamic art, and combat uses real-time controls rather than turn-based rounds. Designers also provide 34 strategy cards for team customization, letting players combine cards, exploit elemental strengths and weaknesses, and manage internal and external martial arts and status effects during fast-paced encounters.

Han Jia Squirrel highlights the developer’s live-ops experience: the team’s previous Steam title, Sands of Salzar, sold two million copies and holds an 82% “overwhelmingly positive” rating on Steam. Neptune’s head of game operations, Kuan Cheng-hsien (權承賢), said the publisher will localize the game for different regions and culture-specific play habits, and reiterated the Q4 2026 release window in his statement.

Why it matters

If you collect character-driven wuxia RPGs or like tactical party building, the concrete steps are open now: pre-register on mobile stores or wishlist on Steam to get official updates. Also note the team’s live-ops track record and Neptune’s localization promise—two practical signals about post-launch support and regional availability ahead of the Q4 2026 release.
