How to start the Battle of Zhongyuan DLC in Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty

Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty is already a lengthy and feature-packed experience, but its new Battle of Zhongyuan DLC comes packing even more content for players to slice through as they aim for the best loot the game has to offer. Just some of what Battle of Zhongyuan provides includes 10 new missions, a new weapon type, 6-star rarity gear, and a third difficulty mode to play through. But if you’re thinking of diving into this fresh batch of content, you’ll want to be sure you’re far enough in the story and know where to look for the new missions. Here’s how to start Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty’s Battle of Zhongyuan DLC.

The first thing to note about diving into the Battle of Zhongyuan DLC is that you’ll need to have bought it from your platform’s storefront either as part of the Season Pass or as a standalone purchase. Although the game’s newest patch automatically includes the DLC content, you’ll also still need to download a very small update that registers that you own the content. When you’ve done that, it’s time to load up the game and dive in.

In order to access the Battle of Zhongyuan missions, you’ll need to have progressed through and beaten the core game’s tenth main mission, which is titled “Tyrant’s Final Banquet.” Afterward, you’ll be able to see that an additional section called “Ex 1” has been added to your missions list, which you can now scroll to and begin tackling the first of three main DLC missions. Additionally, as you complete these new missions, you’ll unlock up to seven optional sub-battlefields that are exclusive to the DLC.

Unknown 9: Awakening is already a thrilling superhero spectacle
The hero of Unknown 9 Awakening: floats through a street.

Unknown 9: Awakening feels like something out of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. A hero with a dead mentor figure? Check. Superpowers? Check. Mysterious organizations that want to use those powers for nefarious purposes? I don't even need to say it, do I.

Haroona, a woman who can channel psychic powers from a parallel dimension called the Fold, leads the story with her strong sense of justice and arsenal of abilities. Clichés aside, what impressed me most about Unknown 9 during a 60-minute hands-on demo at PAX West was its worldbuilding and how it encouraged me to experiment with Haroona's powers. I'll admit, I was confused about how to juggle them within the first few minutes of the preview. But once I adapted, I was swapping between the buttons without an issue, even if I accidentally missed a hit or two.

If there's one thing you can count on in nearly any Soulslike game, it's that you're going to face some hefty challenges along your journey. That rings as true as ever in Lords of the Fallen, which tasks you with exploring treacherous locales and facing off against horrifying and deadly creatures around every corner. As such, you may find yourself wanting to bring a friend along for some cooperative play as you would in Elden Ring, and you can do exactly that by simply inviting them to your world, where they can stay for as long as they'd like. But not all Soulslikes are cross-platform games, so we'll fill you in on whether this one is.
Is Lords of the Fallen cross-platform?

The quick and easy answer to whether Lords of the Fallen has crossplay is yes, it features crossplay just like Minecraft and Sea of Thieves. However, this only works between PC and each console individually, meaning that PlayStation 5 and Xbox players can't connect with one another. For those on either platform looking to connect with PC players, though, you can freely invite someone for co-op (or invade them for PVP) with no issues whatsoever.
