NetEase Games and Naked Rain's highly anticipated Project Mugen is officially titled Ananta, and a new trailer showcases its gameplay and world. This urban, open-world RPG offers a glimpse into Nova City, a sprawling metropolis brimming with diverse characters and a looming threat from otherworldly forces of Chaos.
A recent preview video highlights the game's captivating story, characters, and environment. While comparisons to MiHoYo's titles like Zenless Zone Zero are inevitable, Ananta distinguishes itself through unique movement mechanics. The game blends charming characters with dynamic combat, a formula popular in modern 3D RPGs.
The trailer showcases impressive character movement, leaving much to speculate about the level of freedom players will have exploring Nova City. Will traversal be limited to specific areas, or will Ananta offer truly fluid, Spider-Man-style movement across the city's rooftops and streets?
Although comparisons to MiHoYo's Genshin Impact are unavoidable, Ananta aims to forge its own identity within the crowded 3D gacha RPG market. Its success hinges on its ability to stand out from the competition and potentially challenge the current genre leaders.
