Wu-Tang Clan's Shaolin video game is coming to Xbox, and according to a report from Insider Gaming on Wednesday (December 6), the game is "a third-person melee-oriented RPG complete with four-player co-op."

The game will feature all nine Wu-Tang members as playable characters, and will also have a ton of music in the game that's been re-imagined by Just Blaze. Players can choose from four different weapons that all have different and unique play styles (single swords, dual swords, etc.). Gathered loot and items all fit into the game's central social hub, named the "Neighborhood." Here, players will be able to sell their loot, listen to music, and show off their unique fashion choices with one another. The game is being developed by Brass Lion Entertainment and is still in its Alpha phase, which means it could still be one or two years away from release¹.

In other news, Wu-Tang Clan took over the Empire State Building last month, turning the iconic landmark black and yellow to celebrate 30 years since the release of their debut album, Enter the Wu-Tang (36 Chambers). New York City mayor Eric Adams also declared November 9 Wu-Tang Day, honoring the Staten Island group².

Last year, Enter the Wu-Tang (36 Chambers) was selected by the Library of Congress for preservation in the National Recording Registry for being "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant." Of the Wu's seven albums, it is still considered by many as their greatest and stands as one of Hip Hop's finest².
