- HoYoverse is actively hiring for a new Honkai IP game, an urban fantasy Chinese RPG.
- Development is being done in Unity, with multiple positions open.
- No details on the name or release window have been officially announced yet.
HoYoverse is ramping up recruitment for its new Honkai IP game, and the latest job listings offer a clearer glimpse into what’s in store. This mysterious project, which first appeared in recruitment ads last year, seems to be an urban fantasy Chinese RPG featuring spirit companions, auto chess battles, and exploration.
The game allows you to collect and train “Destined Spirits”, which can fly, glide, and surf
From what I’ve understood from the translations and the details shared in English, the job postings describe a game where you can explore a peaceful seaside town. One can collect “Destined Spirits” to form a team and engage in battles. Multiple positions are open as I write.
These spirits can be trained and evolved, unlocking abilities to fly, glide, and surf while uncovering hidden secrets. Interestingly, they’ve been referenced as Pokemon-like. Development details include the game being worked with Unity, with positions open for game system development, rendering, animation, level design, and more.
If you remember, an earlier recruitment image from last year hinted at a modern city setting, and it looks like it was the same as the recent one. The recruitment was open for Mission Designer as part of the Honkai IP Pre-research.
Honkai IP has become very strong for HoYoverse, as the franchise has already seen four releases, with the big names being Honkai Impact 3rd and Honkai: Star Rail. With a new game on the way, it’s clear that the lore will only continue to expand, which seems to be the current plan.
Details about what the name of the game would be, the release span, and other details are still unknown. With HoYoverse actively hiring, this Honkai IP game project is still in its early stages, so it is expected to take more time before we get any official news.
