11 A World Defined by Rival Powers
22  
33 The martial world of Another Hero's Adventure is shaped by its competing powers. The setting is described as a tangled web of factions, knotted together by old grudges and fresh rivalries that have only grown sharper in the wake of war. As a new dynasty rises from the ashes of the old conflict, these groups jockey for position, and the friction between them gives the jianghu much of its danger and its drama.

55 This is confirmed as a core part of the game's world. You do not simply pass through a neutral landscape; you move among forces that have their own histories, their own enemies, and their own ambitions. For the broader martial world these factions inhabit, see The Jianghu.

77 How Factions Touch the Journey
88  
99 Because the world is built around contesting powers, the choices you make can land on one side of a rivalry or another. The game's premise stresses that every decision shapes not only your own survival but the fate of others and perhaps the destiny of the jianghu itself, and the web of factions is exactly the kind of structure where such choices carry weight. Aligning with, opposing, or simply navigating around these groups is part of how your story takes shape. This connects directly to the branching design covered on the Choices and Consequences page.

1111 Expected Carryover From the Original Game

1313 Here it is important to separate what is confirmed for this title from what players expect based on the studio's earlier work.

1515 In the previous game, Hero's Adventure: Road to Passion, the martial world was populated by more than thirty factions and sects, all vying for power across the jianghu. That breadth of competing schools and powers was one of the original's signature qualities, giving the world a dense political map of allegiances and feuds.

1717 Because Another Hero's Adventure is described as continuing the spirit of the original and is built around the same tangled web of factions, many players expect a comparable scale of factions and sects to return in some form. However, the studio has not yet confirmed how many factions this title will feature, and no roster has been announced. Treat the larger scale as expected but unconfirmed.

2222 No specific factions or sects for Another Hero's Adventure have been publicly named at this stage. This page does not invent any of them. Rather than list groups that have not been confirmed, it describes only the established shape of the world: a martial society pulled in many directions by competing powers and lingering feuds. As official information names the factions of this game, their entries will be added here, with their goals, rivalries, and how they fit into your journey.

2424 Looking Ahead
2525  
2626 Expect this page to grow considerably once the game's factions are revealed. Until then, the confirmed takeaway is straightforward: the jianghu of Another Hero's Adventure is a contested place, defined by rivalries old and new, and your path through it will mean reckoning with powers that want very different things.
