The China Hero Project is a PlayStation® mentoring and support initiative for China-based developers, helping them create incredible games that reach a global audience.
At PlayStation, we want to identify and empower talented and ambitious Chinese development teams by providing development, publishing and marketing support.
Our experienced Shanghai-based production team provides best-in-class support for all of our China Hero Project developers. Our partners include Epic Games (Unreal Engine) and CRIWARE for development middleware support, Digital Hearts for QA support, and Vanguard Sound and Sound Machine for audio support, along with additional support on code reviews, recommendations and guidance from the PlayStation team.
In addition to providing funding toward the development of key titles, the China Hero Project provides support in identifying, connecting, and selecting the right publishing partners in Asia and around the world.
China Hero Project developers can also leverage PlayStation marketing teams for promotional support. With the collaborative support of the Sony Interactive Entertainment team, games produced by the China Hero Project can be recognised by more players and business partners around the world.
