Yes I’m Pre-Registering For Urban Open World RPG “ANANTA”

NetEase Games and Naked Rain have released a new gameplay trailer for the upcoming urban open-world RPG called ANANTA. Previously known under the code name Project Mugen, the upcoming role-playing game seems to offer a whole lot of freedom to the player.

As someone who keeps an eye on the gaming industry and tries to cover certain types of titles, occasionally I end up receiving a press release about a video game that makes me extremely excited. There’s just something about the visuals, gameplay, and more that makes me want to try it out ASAP! And yes, ANANTA is definitely one of those games.

Originally announced back during Gamescom 2023, this free-to-play RPG takes place in a vast open world called Nova City. The visuals and stylings are very anime with the gameplay featuring exploration, action, and allowing players to have as much fun as possible in a city-like setting.

You get to play as an elite agent within the A.C.D (Anti-Chaos Directorate). Apparantly, Nova City has been plunged into Chaos due to threats via “spooky paranormal phenomenon”. There are haunted toilets in this one!

The gameplay narrative includes humor, action, and mystery as you try to handle numerous threats while trying to figure out what’s really happening.

The press release emphasized player freedom a lot. Nova City has many places ripe for exploration. There’s the Sonic Boom Club, the Whalebone Library, the Eve Gallery, and so much more.

The action elements allow the player to use their environment to defeat enemies. You will need to “discern” between the ongoing chaos and order to aid the neutral and “capture” the evil during your missions.

Of course, you are free to roam the city as much as you want while making new friends. From what I can see, there will be a way to strengthen relationships with your crew.

Here’s the fun trailer!

I do like the anime visuals. The combat also looks quite fast-paced. And there seems to be quite a lot to do instead of always needing to beat enemies across the city. I can see people just riding a car or motorbike and creating a bit of chaos of their own. I know I’ll be doing just that!

Judging from the trailer (and I could be very wrong here), I would assume that you will get a chance to play as other members of your crew instead of the main agent. While the agent seems to have an energy-like whip as a weapon and some telekinetic abilities, there’s a particular pink-haired woman who can use graffiti during her attacks. Another girl seems to be using music to damage foes.

From what I have seen in some gamer communities, there’s definitely a lot of hype surrounding ANANTA. Certain gamers have mentioned how this upcoming release seems to have meshed the best parts of GTA, Saints Row, Infamous, Spider-Man, and other similar games. If ANANTA can deliver on what it seems to be promising players, it’s going to be huge in the gaming community.
