Gameplay for Hunter x Hunter Nen x Impact
EVO Japan 2024 will be held from April 27 to 29, 2024. On this occasion, the publishers will preview a slew of their games, particularly eagerly awaited by game lovers. It's finally Hunter x Hunter: Nen x Impact by 8ing who opens the ball by finally showing what his game has in his stomach in the company of big names with an impressive track record: Fritti, GO1 and Justin Wong. Their first impressions are most encouraging: “I played it for two hours and I would have liked to play it for ten more hours,” Wong commented not without enthusiasm.
We agree that the first extracts are enough to arouse the curiosity of amateurs. Hunter x Hunter Nen x Impact will therefore be a 2D 3v3 fighting game. The touch of the creators of Marvel vs Capcom 3 is immediately felt and it seems that this is also the case with controller in hand given these first returns, which even compare it to Dragon Ball FighterZ for its speed, its dynamism and its Easy-to-learn controls. The game will also include a “Simplified” mode for beginners.
More casual fans, for their part, only seem to stop at the plasticity of this Hunter x Hunter game, considered lackluster and too simplistic in the eyes of some, who even go so far as to compare it to a PS3 or mobile game. A majority, however, is more concerned about the size of the roster, which seems quite weak compared to current productions. For now, only Gon, Kurapika, Killua, Netero, Leorio and Hisoka have been confirmed, but there will obviously be only a few characters who will join them. Hunter x Hunter: Nen x Impact is planned for PS5, Nintendo Switch and PC at a date still unknown.
