Story Highlights

  • HoYoverse teases its new Unreal Engine 5 fantasy project with a 20-second clip.
  • The project promises an open world with large-scale battles, intelligent NPCs, and more.
  • The title is part of HoYoverse’s massive lineup that includes future RPG and AI-driven titles.

HoYoverse is continuing to impress with its latest game announcement. The company is developing a massive online role-playing game (MMORPG), and a brief teaser trailer offers a first look at its stunning world. Built using the powerful Unreal Engine 5, this project appears to be one of HoYoverse’s most ambitious yet.

Though brief, the preview shows a dark, futuristic world with a Western feel. The ground appears soft and damp, and seems to shift as if something is moving underneath. You can even see a slimy creature crawling across the surface.

Speculations link it to the “Varsapura” trademark, which hinted at AI-powered storytelling

This game, as described in the original Chinese text, takes players to a vast and magical world full of old secrets, dangerous creatures, and famous heroes. The game suggests players will encounter powerful gods, face unpredictable challenges, and embark on a personal quest to restore balance.

The team is planning several advanced features for the game, including expansive and reactive open worlds, AI that allows combat to happen anywhere on the terrain, more realistic and believable characters, huge cooperative battles against bosses, and a new animation system to make movements look incredibly lifelike.

It’s interesting to see how this connects to HoYoverse’s previously announced plans from March. They had hinted at seven upcoming projects, and we now know that two of those were being built with Unreal Engine 5 (UE5). One was described as a role-playing game set in a modern city, and the other as an action RPG with a realistic fantasy setting.

This latest development strongly resembles what we’ve been observing: a fantasy world brought to life with strikingly realistic graphics. This is achieved through physically based rendering (PBR), which creates a more believable and immersive environment. Also of note is “Varsapura,” a trademark HoYoverse registered back in August.

Some believe this game will have an AI-generated title, and that could still be the case. However, the official website is now online and includes “boss” in its address and in a recent post, suggesting that might be the game’s name, though this hasn’t been officially confirmed. The developers are currently hiring new team members.

It’s still too soon to say for sure what to expect, but the trailer showcased some stunning visuals. It seems a bit spooky, and I’m hoping the game will be playable on mobile devices when it comes out. We should get more information soon, so keep an eye out for updates.
