HarmonyOS Exclusive Game “Scroll of Taiwu” Debuts at AWE2026, Immersive Big-Screen Martial Arts World Captivates Players
Huawei MateTV Showcases Exclusive Title, Traditional Chinese Aesthetic Experience Becomes Exhibition Highlight
March 12, 2026 – The AWE2026 officially opened today at the Shanghai New International Expo Centre. Huawei debuted its flagship Smart Screen MateTV alongside the first HarmonyOS-exclusive gaming masterpiece, “Scroll of Taiwu,” instantly becoming a focal point of the exhibition and drawing numerous players for on-site experience. This traditional Chinese martial arts game, leveraging its unique artistic style and immersive gameplay, showcased unprecedented charm within Huawei’s MateTV large-screen ecosystem.
At the Huawei HarmonyOS Smart Home Technology Briefing held on March 11, Huawei Consumer BG CEO He Gang previewed the experience: “With the launch of the HarmonyOS version of ‘Scroll of Taiwu,’ players can control the game directly on the MateTV using the Huawei Lingxi Floating Touchpad. Combined with MateTV’s outstanding audiovisual performance and large-screen view, it offers an immersive exploration of the Eastern martial arts world.” This innovative control method was fully validated at the exhibition, with players expressing that this new “reclining” way to experience martial arts games is refreshing and unique.
Breaking Device Boundaries: “Scroll of Taiwu: Heart of the Canopy” Ushers in a Seamless Martial Arts Journey
As one of the most representative and popular domestic indie games in recent years, “Scroll of Taiwu” has already built a massive player base on PC, renowned for its mythical martial arts open world, immersive martial arts system, and high degree of freedom. The debut of “Scroll of Taiwu: Heart of the Canopy” HarmonyOS version as the “first HarmonyOS-exclusive, all-scenario game” marks a crucial step in the deep integration of this classic title with the HarmonyOS ecosystem.
The breakthrough of the HarmonyOS version lies in transcending the boundaries of the PC experience, enabling seamless transition across all-scenario devices such as phones, tablets, computers, and smart screens. This means a player’s martial arts journey is no longer confined to a single screen but truly integrates into daily life – whether continuing an adventure on the phone during a commute or seamlessly switching to the smart screen at home for an immersive large-screen experience, game progress and consistency remain uninterrupted.
The specially designed “Taiwu Reclining Zone” at the exhibition became the most popular experience area. The clever combination of bean bag sofas and Huawei smart screens allowed players to enjoy the martial arts world with a broader view and clearer picture quality from the most comfortable posture. Many experiencers marveled: “Playing a martial arts game while lying on the sofa and using a touchpad feels incredible, as if I’m truly in the midst of that world.”
An Audiovisual Feast: A Martial Arts World Painted in Ink Wash
The artistic style of “Scroll of Taiwu” has always been highly praised. The game masterfully blends traditional ink wash painting techniques with modern game technology, making every frame resemble an exquisite piece of traditional Chinese scroll painting. Amplified by Huawei MateTV’s high-resolution screen, this unique visual aesthetic is further enhanced – the misty mountains and waters, the spirit of the characters, the tension of combat – all are vividly displayed on the large screen.
Regarding audio, the game fully constructs the atmosphere of a martial arts world. Details like the sound of wind, the ring of swords, and the rustle of footsteps are meticulously crafted. Coupled with MateTV’s sound system, players feel as if they are truly present in an authentic Jianghu (martial arts world).
Open World and Emotional Narrative: Every Player’s Jianghu is Unique
Compared to other martial arts games, “Scroll of Taiwu’s” most prominent feature is its strong emphasis on player autonomy and interaction. Every character in the game has a unique background story and personality. Players are not merely completing tasks; through their choices, they influence the character’s growth, the plot’s direction, and even the final outcome. This open design significantly enhances the game’s replayability and value, ensuring each player’s Jianghu experience is unique.
Players at the scene gave high praise: “This immersive experience makes me feel like I’ve truly entered a martial arts world, going on an adventure with the characters.” The development team also expressed their hope that through this game, more people can experience the charm of traditional Chinese culture, telling Eastern martial arts stories using the modern language of gaming.
HarmonyOS Ecosystem Continues to Evolve, Helping Developers Achieve Commercial Success
The successful debut of the HarmonyOS version of “Scroll of Taiwu” is not just a breakthrough for a single game but also signifies the continued deep cultivation of the gaming sector within the HarmonyOS ecosystem. As the ecosystem develops, with a growing number of devices and an expanding user base, Huawei Game Center continuously explores new opportunities in partnership with collaborators and developers, helping them achieve commercial success.
In terms of game promotion and launch, Huawei has successfully implemented an innovative model of simultaneous release with the HarmonyOS operating system. By integrating resources across its entire media matrix, Huawei achieves comprehensive smart reach within the HarmonyOS ecosystem, significantly enhancing promotional effectiveness. In content operations, Huawei Game Center continuously explores new scenarios, launching indie game and PC game sections. It also develops game and short drama collaboration models based on game IPs, effectively boosting game activity and conversion through film-game联动 (synergy), helping “good games” break through to wider audiences with “quality content.”
Simultaneously, Huawei’s overseas localized operations teams, grounded in local ecosystems, provide professional联运 (integrated operational) capabilities for game developers, assisting Chinese games in better exploring the global market and securing new growth opportunities.
