NetEase Games and Naked Rain's Project Mugen is officially titled Ananta, a new urban, open-world RPG. Recent trailers showcase gameplay and offer a clearer view of the game's world, characters, and enemies.
The preview video reveals Nova City, a sprawling metropolis ripe for exploration, along with a diverse cast and the looming threat of chaotic forces from another dimension. While comparisons to MiHoYo's titles like Zenless Zone Zero are inevitable, Ananta distinguishes itself, particularly in its character movement mechanics. The game promises a blend of charming characters and dynamic combat, a popular formula in today's 3D RPG market.
The trailer highlights impressive movement capabilities. Whether this translates to seamless traversal across Nova City's streets and rooftops, or more segmented exploration remains to be seen.
While similarities to MiHoYo's Genshin Impact are apparent, Ananta aims to carve its own niche in the 3D gacha RPG genre. Its success will depend on its ability to stand out from the competition and potentially challenge the current market leaders.
