HoYoverse has finally unveiled a teaser for the next chapter in the Honkai universe: Honkai: Nexus Anima. This upcoming game in the series has sparked excitement and curiosity among fans eager to dissect the teaser for clues about the gameplay.
What Do We Know?
During the Honkai: Star Rail second anniversary concert, HoYoverse treated fans to a live stream of the new teaser. The teaser concluded with Kiana, a beloved character from Honkai Impact 3rd, greeting viewers in Chinese while standing at a building's entrance, accompanied by her adorable pet. The appearance of Blade from Honkai: Star Rail in the teaser suggests a possible connection between the two Honkai worlds in Nexus Anima. While the trailer keeps most details under wraps, you can watch it yourself here.
Interestingly, no official title was announced during the stream. Instead, the teaser simply teased 'A brand new Honkai game, stay tuned.' However, the name Honkai: Nexus Anima has gained traction, primarily because it surfaced earlier this year in job listings, trademark filings, and domain registrations, lending credibility to the speculation that this might be the game's final title.
Is It Going to be a Pokémon-Like?
If the teaser gave you Pokémon vibes, you're not alone. The inclusion of pet companions and trainer-style battles hints at a blend of Pokémon and Honkai elements. A notable scene featured a battle between Kiana and Blade, indicating that Nexus Anima might emphasize combat and companion dynamics more than previous Honkai games.
As of now, we don't have a release date or confirmation on whether Nexus Anima will be the official name. But the teaser certainly piques interest! Stay tuned for more updates on Honkai: Nexus Anima.
