Duet Night Abyss announces no gacha system, to compete directly against Warframe:


Mihoyo's new game, Honkai Nexus Anima, is an auto-chess game (like TFT):

Looks like Chinese gacha game companies, having more or less conquered the gacha space originally owned by Japan, are now starting to redirect their focus to other genres, targeting the market share of Western developers. This is great news as the Western developers are, in my opinion, ripe for disruption and combined with the rising Chinese AAA industry, this should be fun to watch.

This is probably the first time the protagonist in a computer game was “fat” and not thin or muscular. That’s if they follow traditional depictions.

Nexus Anima being an autochess is a good move by Mihoyo. They have already saturated the PvE story-driven Gacha with 3 games and the PvP autochess market is massive in China - the revenue of Golden Spatula/TFT easily ranks in the top 10. This directly challenges Tencent in their home turf.

This also shows Mihoyo is aware of their genre saturation problem and are now branching out. They have a UE5 project being developed and I'm going to predict it's going to be a AAA full-priced single player game.
