Honkai: Nexus Anima to Bridge Two Honkai Worlds

HoYoverse has just unveiled an exciting teaser for the next installment in the Honkai universe, tentatively titled Honkai: Nexus Anima. This upcoming game has sparked curiosity and speculation among fans eager to understand what new gameplay elements it might introduce.

What Do We Know?

The teaser was first showcased during the Honkai: Star Rail second anniversary concert. The highlight of the event was the teaser, which ended with Kiana from Honkai Impact 3rd greeting the audience in Chinese. She was depicted standing at a building's entrance, accompanied by her charming pet, which immediately caught the viewers' attention.

Adding to the excitement, Blade from Honkai: Star Rail made an appearance, hinting at a potential crossover between the two Honkai worlds in Nexus Anima. The trailer, though brief, is worth a watch—check it out here.

While the official title wasn't revealed during the stream, the teaser concluded with the message, "A brand new Honkai game, stay tuned." The name Honkai: Nexus Anima has gained traction, first appearing in job listings earlier this year and later in trademark filings and domain registrations, suggesting it might be the final name for the game.

Is It Going to be a Pokémon-Like?

The teaser has sparked comparisons to Pokémon, particularly with its focus on pet companions and trainer-style battles. A notable scene featured a confrontation between Kiana and Blade, suggesting that Nexus Anima might emphasize combat and companion dynamics more than its predecessors.

As of now, the release date and the official name remain uncertain. However, the teaser promises an intriguing new chapter in the Honkai series.
