HoYoverse just announced that its action RPG is going to Mars in Honkai impact 3rd Part 2
Hoyo’s action RPG that landed on mobiles long before the Genshin Impact was a thing is getting a major new update in early 2024. Following on from parts 1 and 1.5, the latest destination for this adventure will bring a whole new planet of content to mobiles and desktops. The news of this upcoming release just dropped as part of Tokyo game Show, giving us all a look at what to expect on mars, as well as a spiffing new teaser trailer too. You can watch the teaser trailer as part of a ten-minute presentation, where you’ll learn more about what to expect.
New Fights
HoYoverse has confirmed that players can expect a new storyline, taking on the latest chapter as a resident of Mars. Don’t think that means trudging around red wastelands. The first gameplay glimpse shows off a huge mega mall with cultural influence from across the globe. Details from the reveal paint tthe new land as a bustling and lively place, full of unique civilizations and natural marvels.
We also know that the combat experience will be completely updated. Players will all be able to jump at their own, leisure adding a whole new set of capabilities and problems to overcome on the Y-axis. A brand new Astral Ring mechanic will also arrive in game. When unleashed, it enables the simultaneous burst skills of multiple characters, casts splendid visual effects, and also grants an easier and more direct option to achieve burst. The result should be a much richer and more diverse combat experience for the community to experience. In reality, the full detail of this new combat system still has to be broken down, a nd we know that monsters will get their own combat buffs too. What we can see from the full presentation, is a much more fluid and layered set dynamic challenges than I’ve come to expect from Honkai Impact 3rd.
