As a diversified carrier full of vitality in the new era, games have become a special way for many young people to contact traditional culture. Take Glory of kings, for example, it is self-centered and divergent, creating excellent cultural content in different fields, forming a cultural matrix that players can reach. Let's take a look at what the cultural matrix behind the glory of the king shows.
The first is the field of music. Games and music are complementary, and good music can enhance the player's gaming experience. When it comes to the music in the glory of the king that makes players remember, the music corresponding to the skin of the five tiger generals is quite representative. The music of this series of skins invited Teacher Tan Dun as the general design of the music, and the five skins corresponded to different instrument styles, and Mr. Tan Dun specially selected the five instruments recorded in the Dunhuang murals to play, namely Xiqin, Shakuhachi, Yanyi, Sheng and Five-string Pipa. This not only allows players to re-recognize the ancient instruments that have long faded from the public's vision, but also allows players to appreciate the sound of musical instruments that have been vicissitudes in China thousands of years ago.
It is worth mentioning that The Glory of Kings also presents the music production process and concept of these heroes and skins in the form of digital music classrooms. In addition to enjoying the aural impact of music in the game, players can also be exposed to a wealth of music knowledge outside the game, know the whole process of game music production, and achieve "knowing what it is and why it is so".
In addition to music, The Glory of kings has also added national style elements in other aspects. Take the heroes and skins introduced by the king in recent years, many of which highlight the Chinese style in design, such as the heroine "Yun miao" that came out not long ago, using the traditional weapons red gun and Emei gun method; while the mink cicada's encounter with Hu Xuan skin is to choose the Dunhuang culture dancer mural as the design concept. It can be said that the glory of the king is in this way of hero skin co-creation, so that more players have the opportunity to understand our own national style culture, in the cultural dissemination, played a positive role.
In addition to the game itself, The Glory of kings also shows the unique charm of the national style culture through offline viewing. In the graduation season of this year's Academy of Fine Arts, Wang Glory cooperated with the five major academies of fine arts to jointly create an art exhibition of Chang'an Fengwuzhi, all of which were written by students of the Academy of Fine Arts, showing the profound cultural heritage of Chang'an as the ancient capital of the Six Dynasties and the gathering place of Sheng Tang culture. Letting digital games intersect with the real world is an important part of King's Glory to create a three-dimensional game IP, and from the results, such actions do help to stimulate players' interest in the national style culture, which can be described as a win-win situation.
In the past, people's impression of games was often just an entertainment product, but now, games rely on a huge number of users, but also can show the other side of carrying culture and spreading culture. Glory of kings is not the first game to make achievements in the exploration of the cultural field, but through several years of uninterrupted exploration, it has also found a path that suits itself, so that the game is not limited to the game, but also in a pluralistic and inclusive form, to many young users to convey the beauty of culture. It is expected that Glory of Kings will continue to develop in the future and bring players more good cultural content.
