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

miHoYo, the creators of the popular titles Genshin Impact, Honkai: Star Rail, and Zenless Zone Zero, have sparked considerable anticipation regarding their next project. Initial speculation ranged wildly, from rumors of a Animal Crossing-esque survival game (later seemingly confirmed by leaks) to a grand-scale RPG in the vein of Baldur's Gate 3.

However, recent information suggests a different direction entirely. Analysis of job listings and circulating rumors point towards a new game deeply connected to the Honkai franchise, defying some players' expectations. This new title will reportedly feature:

  • An open-world coastal entertainment town: The setting forms a vibrant backdrop for the core gameplay loop.
  • Spirit collection and development: Players will gather and cultivate spirits from diverse dimensions, reminiscent of Pokémon's creature collection and evolution systems. Team building will be a crucial element of combat.
  • Unique traversal mechanics: Collected spirits will grant players unique abilities, such as flying and surfing.
  • Autobattler/Auto Chess genre: The game will utilize the popular auto-battler or auto-chess combat style.

This intriguing blend of Pokémon, Baldur's Gate 3, and Honkai elements promises a novel gaming experience. While the development timeline remains unclear, miHoYo's ambitious project aims to expand the Honkai universe in unexpected and exciting ways.
