Honkai: Nexus Anima could be the free-to-play Pokémon killer
Hoyoverse's upcoming free-to-play creature collector, Honkai: Nexus Anima, was previewed at Gamescom 2026. The game features auto-battles and unique creature designs with abstract 'Aspects' like Love and Reality, differentiating it from traditional creature collectors. Concerns exist around its gacha mechanics and monetization, though the game is set to release on PC, iOS, and Android.
