HoYoverse has just unveiled a tantalizing teaser for the next installment in the Honkai universe, tentatively titled Honkai: Nexus Anima. This upcoming game in the series has sparked excitement and speculation among fans eager to see what new gameplay elements it will introduce.
What Do We Know?
The teaser was first revealed during the Honkai: Star Rail second anniversary concert, where it was streamed live to the audience. As the concert concluded, viewers were greeted by Kiana's voice in Chinese, a beloved character from Honkai Impact 3rd. She was shown standing at the entrance of a building, accompanied by her adorable pet, capturing everyone's attention.
The teaser then introduced Blade, a character from Honkai: Star Rail, hinting at a potential crossover between the two Honkai worlds in Nexus Anima. While the trailer was brief and didn't reveal much, it's available for you to watch and analyze for yourself right here.
Interestingly, no official title was announced during the stream. Instead, the teaser concluded with the message, 'A brand new Honkai game, stay tuned.' However, the name Honkai: Nexus Anima has been circulating widely. This name first appeared in job listings earlier this year and has since been spotted in trademark filings and domain registrations, lending credibility to the speculation that this will indeed be the game's title.
Is It Going to be a Pokémon-Like?
The teaser has sparked comparisons to Pokémon, with many fans noting similarities in the concept of pet companions and trainer-style battles. A highlight of the video was a battle sequence featuring Kiana versus Blade, suggesting that Honkai: Nexus Anima might emphasize combat and companion dynamics more than its predecessors.
As of now, there's no confirmed release date or final name for the game. However, the teaser has certainly piqued interest and left fans eagerly awaiting more details.
