ANANTA Unveils 7-Minute Gameplay Trailer Ahead of TGS Playable Debut

Famitsu says the free-to-play RPG will forgo character gacha in favor of cosmetic monetization.

Overview

  • NetEase and Naked Rain’s new footage spotlights Nova City with character switching, environmental combat, varied traversal including swinging, and wide vehicle and public transit options.
  • Developers told Famitsu the game will not use character gacha, with spending focused on cosmetics, vehicles, and housing while all characters are unlockable through play.
  • A playable build is set for Tokyo Game Show 2025 from September 25 to 28 at Makuhari Messe in Chiba, Japan.
  • The title is in development for PlayStation 5, PC, iOS, and Android, with pre-registration open and no release date announced.
  • Coverage draws comparisons to GTA, Marvel’s Spider-Man, Watch Dogs, and Yakuza, with some viewers alleging Spider-Man-like swinging animations and recent materials not clarifying multiplayer beyond a 2023 four-player co-op comment.
