"A Grand Escape into the Sunlight."

A narrative adventure game based on the Dragon Raja IP. Players will embody Lu Mingfei, an S-Class dragon-human hybrid, traveling alongside Kagari Eri. Together, they embark on a grand escape into the sunlight, ultimately reaching their shared destiny.

This is a multi-choice, multi-ending game. It will follow a main storyline based on the original work, while also offering players the possibility to alter that original path and achieve a better ending – fulfilling a wish that fans have held since the original story's conclusion.

In this world dominated by humans, hidden existences known as Dragon Clans lurk. There are also mysterious hybrids – beings born with the innate mission to slay dragons.

Cassell College is an institution that gathers these hybrids, sending them on dragon-slaying missions across the globe.

One day, draconic heartbeats are detected in Japanese waters. Principal Angler personally initiates the SS Plan. Hybrids Caesar, Chu Zihang, and Lu Mingfei are dispatched on a special mission to Japan, landing to investigate the branch known as the "Yakou Family."

Mid-mission, the Yakou Family betrays them. Lu Mingfei's group finds refuge in the host club "Takamagahara." To uncover the Yakou Family's secrets, they infiltrate the Genji Heavy Industries building at night.

Within its walls, Lu Mingfei encounters Kagari Eri, imprisoned within. He helps her escape, and together, fleeing pursuit by the Yakou Family, they begin a grand escape across Japan.

Head of the Yakou Family's Uesugi Clan, a powerful Tokyo dragon-blooded Yakuza faction. Her Spirit Words possess devastating, uncontrollable power, leading her to remain silent most of the time and often be mistaken for mute. She has a simple mind, loves playing games, and watching anime.

Dragon Raja is a fantasy novel series by author Jiang Nan, comprising:

• Dragon Raja I: Dawn of Fire

• Dragon Raja II: Eye of the Mourners

• Dragon Raja III: Tides of the Black Moon

• Dragon Raja IV: Odin's Abyss

• Dragon Raja V: The Return of the Mourners

The story follows Lu Mingfei, who, while applying to foreign universities, receives an invitation from Cassell College, a private university located in the distant suburbs of Chicago. Boarding the CC1000 train to Chicago, he embarks on a journey to confront the Dragon Clans.

In August 2022, the official Dragon Raja animation announced its premiere on August 19th, airing weekly on Tencent Video.

The Dragon Raja series has sold over 21 million copies, making it a phenomenal success in contemporary fiction. Dragon Raja: The Last Journey adapts the main storyline from Dragon Raja III: Tides of the Black Moon (Part 2) – widely considered the pinnacle of the entire series.

In 2015, Ji Ling first read Dragon Raja III: Tides of the Black Moon (Part 2) and fell deeply in love with the character Kagari Eri.

Haunted by the original ending, Ji Ling wrote a short fan fiction piece and even traveled to Japan for a pilgrimage to locations from the story. In 2019, he shared a travelogue of this pilgrimage, which became the highest-rated video answer about Dragon Raja pilgrimage sites.

Now, in 2025, ten years later, following the critical and commercial success (over one million copies sold) of Hunger: Journey of a Thousand Miles set in the late Ming Dynasty, Ji Ling has earned the trust of Jiang Nan (the original author of Dragon Raja) and Tencent. He has been entrusted with creating a narrative adventure game based on the Dragon Raja IP.

Ji Ling is deeply honored and confident in delivering this project. He will collaborate closely with Jiang Nan to explore another plausible possibility within the original framework, rewriting the fateful ending!

Dragon Raja: The Last Journey will be a mid-length experience, featuring approximately 120,000 words of unique text and 5 distinct endings. We are committed to crafting the best possible narrative.

We strive to achieve the highest visual quality standards for a domestic (Chinese) single-player game.

We are collaborating with exceptionally talented artists to deliver the most beautiful and captivating rendition of Kagari Eri ever seen within the Dragon Raja IP.

We will meticulously research real-world Japanese locations mentioned in the original work, creating art scenes that blend beauty with realism.

We aim to set the highest audio quality benchmark for domestic (Chinese) 2D games.

We will invite renowned Chinese and Japanese voice actors to collaborate. Casting details will be announced later.
