The phrase is composed of 部落, meaning tribe or clan and 冲突, meaning clash or conflict.
How do you pronounce it?

Did you know?
- The word 冲突 is frequently used in news headlines to describe political or diplomatic 'clashes', making the game's title sound quite serious to a native speaker.
- In Chinese gaming culture, players often refer to their 'clan' as a 公会 (guild) rather than using the 部落 term found in the official title.
- The character 冲 in 冲突 is one of the few Chinese characters that can change its meaning entirely depending on whether it is pronounced 'chōng' or 'chòng'.
