Rumor: miHoYo's New Game is A Pokemon and Baldur's Gate 3-Inspired Autobattler

It seems that the new game from the creators of Genshin Impact, Honkai Star Rail, and Zenless Zone Zero might surprise many fans of miHoYo. After the success of these titles, the gaming community has been buzzing with anticipation about what the developers have in store next.

For a while, whispers circulated about a survival game akin to Animal Crossing, which was later substantiated by gameplay leaks. There was also chatter about a grand RPG similar to Baldur's Gate 3, stirring up excitement among fans.

However, recent rumors and job listings suggest that miHoYo's answer to Larian Studios' acclaimed work might not meet the expectations set by various online "insights" and announcements. It appears that the new project will be intricately linked to the Honkai franchise, introducing a unique blend of elements from Pokemon, Baldur's Gate 3, and the Honkai universe.

Set in an open-world environment, players will explore a coastal entertainment town, collecting spirits from different dimensions. The game will introduce a spirit development system reminiscent of Pokemon, featuring evolution mechanics and team-building for battles. These spirits will not only participate in combat but also enhance gameplay by enabling flying and surfing.

The genre is expected to be an Autobattler or Auto Chess, bringing a fresh twist to the familiar concepts while expanding the Honkai universe in innovative ways. Although the development timeline remains uncertain, this project promises to offer an exciting new experience for fans and newcomers alike.
