Overview
A Whisper of Fall: Jinyiwei is developed in Unreal Engine 5, Epic Games' latest game engine. As part of the PlayStation China Hero Project, the development team at CangMo Game Entertainment, officially registered as Chengdu Cangmo Information Technology Co., Ltd. (成都苍墨信息科技有限公司), has access to Epic Games' Unreal Engine support resources.
Visual style
The game's visuals have been described as cinematic, with a moody, atmospheric aesthetic that fits the late Ming Dynasty setting. The engine handles detailed environments including busy city streets, rooftop vistas, and atmospheric weather effects. The ChinaJoy 2024 demo was described by press as visually early, but the January 2026 gameplay trailer showed significant graphical improvements with smoother character animations and a modernized UI.
Specific UE5 sub-features such as Nanite (virtualized geometry), Lumen (global illumination), or MetaHuman (character creation) have not been explicitly confirmed by the developers. The game leverages PS5 hardware capabilities for its atmospheric visuals.
