Hidden Dragon: Legend, which is powered by Unreal Engine 4, is a Chinese-developed indie title that transports players to Imperial China. "Set in ancient China, HIDDEN DRAGON LEGEND challenges players to battle fierce foes, perform acrobatics to avoid obstacles and enemies, build their character through a deep, RPG-style skill tree and solve puzzles in the heat of battle. Players will utilize all their skills while engaging in hack and slash combat and unleashing stunning combos. To succeed in the game, players will navigate their way through tough enemies, powerful bosses and Metroidvania-style puzzles while building and customizing their fighter for their preferred style through an extensive skill tree. In the game world, competing factions vie to obtain a powerful object called the Dragon Cauldron, which grants inhuman powers at the cost of sanity and reason. When the player character finds he has been put under the spell of the Dragon Cauldron by a dark faction, making him a mere puppet forced to kill, he ventures forth to settle the score."

Critic Reviews
cublikefoot
By Claire FerrinGreat game all around. The combat is satisfying, the upgrades are cool, and the wuxia elements that make the genre fun are all present. Definitely recommended for fans of platforming beat ’em up games.
TheSixthAxis
By Jim HargreavesHidden Dragon isn't terrible, but it's sorely stuck not one, but two generations in the past. The sidescroller is by no means dead, yet those working in this shrinking subgenre are either emulating its most celebrated champions or pushing the boundaries with something new and inventive. Hidden Dragon does neither, nor does it have the visual oomph that can often help overlook a game's shortcomings.
Gamer Escape
By Timothy HyldahlThe storytelling is lackluster and it manages to make combat, what should be the core of an action game, into something that toes the line between tedious and unfair.
COGconnected
By Patrick AndersonIrritation, frustration, and maybe boredom will begin to seep in after the initial fun, making this platforming adventure less than legendary.
PSX Brasil
By Leonardo CidreiraHidden Dragon: Legend has a lot of technical and perfomance issues. Combined with its bad writing, it is going to be a bad experience for any player. The game needs a lot of fixes that could come with an update patch. So, with that in mind, you have been warned.
