It seems that the new game from miHoYo, the creators of Genshin Impact, Honkai Star Rail, and Zenless Zone Zero, may not meet the expectations of some fans who were anticipating something entirely different. Following the success of their previous titles, there has been much speculation about what miHoYo would bring to the table next.

Rumors had circulated about a survival game similar to Animal Crossing, which was later confirmed through gameplay leaks. Additionally, there was speculation about a large-scale RPG akin to Baldur's Gate 3. However, recent rumors and job listings analysis suggest that miHoYo's new project will be closely tied to the Honkai franchise, which may not align with the expectations of some fans who have been following various "insights" and announcements online.

The new game will feature an open-world environment set in a coastal entertainment town, where players will collect spirits from different dimensions. These spirits will be central to gameplay, featuring a development system reminiscent of Pokemon, including evolution mechanics and team-building for battles. Spirits will also serve functional purposes, such as enabling flying and surfing within the game world. The genre is described as an Autobattler or Auto Chess, blending elements of strategy and automation.

It's still unclear how long it will take to develop this unique combination of Pokemon, Baldur's Gate 3, and Honkai elements. The project promises to bring a fresh perspective to familiar concepts while expanding the Honkai universe in unexpected ways. As miHoYo continues to innovate, fans can look forward to seeing how this new game will integrate and evolve the beloved elements of their previous successes.
