Dinghai: The Ocean Pillar is coming to PC via Steam
Justdan has revealed Dinghai: The Ocean Pillar at the 2026 Future Games Show. The Taiwanese publisher has also confirmed that they will release this roguelike action RPG on PC via Steam, although they have still yet to provide a launch window.
The game will be available in not only Chinese (Traditional & Simplified) but also English, Japanese, and Korean. However, the Steam page also includes admission of the usage of generative AI for localization and translation assistance, although the development team also claimed to have manually reviewed the translations and not used generative AI for "art, audio, and code".
In addition, take note that even though the trailer below is intended for the English audience, it still features original voiceovers in Chinese, and YouTube has also applied its auto-dubbing feature if your site language is set to English.
Dinghai: The Ocean Pillar is an action RPG-roguelike set in the mythic world of the Classic of Mountains and Seas, where ancient gods, demons, and forgotten powers collide.
A Soul That Refused to Stay Dead
Become the Abyssal Dragon, a legendary general who once served under Emperor Yan, stripped of his name, cast into exile, and slain in battle. For centuries, only a sliver of his soul survived. Now, through a forbidden curse, he seizes the body of Yi, the godson of the flood-taming hero Yu, moments before death claims them both. Reborn in a form none could have predicted, the Abyssal Dragon walks the mortal world again, carrying centuries of unfinished business and a regret that even death could not bury.
Dual Weapon Combat System
Armed with a dual-weapon combat system, carve your way through gods, demons, and monsters drawn from ancient Eastern mythology. Every run is a fresh trial. Unlock new abilities, discover powerful combinations, and push deeper into a world that grows stranger and more dangerous the further you go. Death is never the end. Each cycle brings new understanding, new strength, and new pieces of a truth that has been buried for ages.
Re-live in the Mythical World of “Classic of Mountains and Seas”
Explore a world torn apart by catastrophic floods and divine conflict. Uncover the fate of Yu, the flood hero who has vanished without a trace. And confront the question at the heart of it all: what does a soul that has survived everything still have left to fight for?
Key Features:
Dual-Weapon Combat — Switch freely between two weapon types during combat, building synergies and adapting your style on the go.
Roguelike Depth — Every run brings new choices. Every death is a step toward something stronger.
