HoYoverse has sparked excitement in the Honkai community with a teaser for their latest project in the series, tentatively titled Honkai: Nexus Anima. Revealed during the Honkai: Star Rail second anniversary concert, the teaser provided fans with a brief glimpse into what the upcoming game might offer.
The teaser concluded the concert with Kiana, a beloved character from Honkai Impact 3rd, greeting viewers in Chinese while standing at a building's entrance alongside her charming pet. This was followed by an appearance from Blade of Honkai: Star Rail, hinting at a potential crossover between the two Honkai worlds in Nexus Anima. Although the trailer was short on details, it's available for you to analyze here.
Interestingly, no official title was announced during the stream. The teaser simply teased 'A brand new Honkai game, stay tuned.' However, the name Honkai: Nexus Anima has been circulating, first appearing in job listings earlier this year and later in trademark filings and domain registrations, suggesting it might be the final name.
The teaser's style has led many to speculate that Honkai: Nexus Anima could resemble a Pokémon-like game, blending elements of pet companions and trainer-style battles. A moment featuring Kiana battling Blade further suggests that the game may emphasize combat and companion interactions more than its predecessors.
As we await more details on Honkai: Nexus Anima, including its release date and official title, the anticipation continues to build. In the meantime, don't miss out on our coverage of the Gothic Vampire RPG Silver and Blood's pre-registration on Android.
