Everything we know about HoYoverse's upcoming realistic UE5 fantasy game

HoYoverse, the developer of Genshin Impact, Zenless Zone Zero, Honkai Star Rail, and Honkai Impact 3rd, among others, has recently released a new teaser for their upcoming fantasy game in China. They have also announced two other games recently, Honkai Nexus Anima and Petit Planet.

In the teaser for their new fantasy game, we can see winged dragons, a few riders on horseback, and another weird creature that emerges from a nearby water body. Based on these details, it appears that HoYoverse is moving away from its typical anime visuals toward a more realistic, fantasy visual style for this project.

Furthermore, they have also shared details about some crucial gameplay features and systems that might be available in their fantasy title. Twitter users such as Hxg Diluc, Gacha Zone, and GenshinUpdates have translated the details about these gameplay features from HoYoverse's Chinese website, and they are given below:

• Developed on the UE5 Engine.
• Realistic Fantasy Game.
• Open-World title.
• Massively Multiplayer Online game (MMO).
• PvP content and game modes.
• Artificial Intelligence Simulated Eco System.
• All-Terrain Battle AI.
• Boss fights.
• Intellectual NPCs.

GenshinUpdates has also shared details on the game's possible setting and plot, translated from the developer's official website in China. The information on the game's potential introduction story is given below:

"Enter a grand fantasy world. Ancient mysteries, evil ghosts and beasts, legendary heroes... Get to know your companions... Restore the collapsed order, end the corrupt contract, and face the impermanent divine will. The journey to uncover the truth is your hero's story."

Based on these details, it seems the fantasy game also includes some mystery, action, and adventure elements in the story. However, since we only have limited information about this title, it is speculated that the game might be in its early stages.
