It seems that the new game from miHoYo, the creators of Genshin Impact, Honkai Star Rail, and Zenless Zone Zero, might not meet the expectations of some fans who were hoping for something different. After the success of these titles, the gaming community has been eagerly anticipating what miHoYo would unveil next.
For a while, rumors circulated about a survival game similar to Animal Crossing, which was later supported by gameplay leaks. There was also speculation about a large-scale RPG akin to Baldur's Gate 3. However, it appears that miHoYo's next project, often seen as their "response" to Larian Studios' acclaimed game, might not align with the expectations set by various online insights and announcements.
Recent rumors and job listings suggest that the new game will be connected to the Honkai franchise. Here are some key details about what fans can expect:
- The game will feature an open-world environment set in a coastal entertainment town.
- Players will engage in collecting spirits from various dimensions, reminiscent of Pokemon.
- A spirit development system will be included, featuring evolution mechanics and team-building strategies for battles.
- Spirits can be utilized for activities such as flying and surfing, adding unique gameplay elements.
- The game's genre is described as an Autobattler or Auto Chess, blending strategic and automatic combat.
While it's unclear how long the development of this unique mix of Pokemon, Baldur's Gate 3, and Honkai elements will take, the project promises to offer a fresh perspective on familiar concepts and expand the Honkai universe in innovative ways.
