Xuan-Yuan Sword VII Patch Notes — December 18, 2020
Aggregated from Steam, cross-tracked with Battle.net coverage on GamePatchNote.
New Difficulty, New Boss, New Challenge
Nightmare difficulty
Feeling a bit too easy playing in Hard difficulty? A new difficulty setting “Nightmare” is in the game. The first thing you will notice in the Nightmare is that the enemy is doing higher damage to you. Also, you will get slower when your stamina is running out, therefore you need to use your stamina more carefully. Last but not least, enemy AI and moveset got improved, now you will get relentless attacks and combos from enemies like it never ends.
Tundou
New Boss: Tundou is coming up. It is a huge monster with a big mouth which can devour anything in front of it. It possesses the element of Earth and will not hold back it’s power against the player. After you beat Tundou, you can imprison it as a new escort like Taowu.
After defeating Tundou, you can imprison it as a new escort.
Stun mechanism
The good news about Ox and Tiger stance, stunning the enemies is a lot easier with those two stances. You can use them to stun the bosses and execute them for massive damage. Also, there is a huge improvement in parry and counter attack, not only parry will recover your stamina drastically but the counter-attack also stuns the enemies very effectively. Needless to say, it will be handy in Nightmare difficulty.
Start Your Journey Again with Immortal Sword
In Xuan-Yuan Sword Series, the immoral weapon, Xuan-Yuan Sword, is forged by the very first monarch of Ancient China -- the Yellow Emperor. Containing the most powerful energy, this sword is held by the legendary heroine, Wenjin, in Xuan-Yuan Sword VII.

After finishing the whole game at least once, “New Game +” will be unlocked so that you can begin the journey again with this ancient Chinese immortal sword in your hand. What’s more, you can also keep your level, stance, martial art, and some of your items like potion and currency into the new game +.
