HoYoverse, the company behind several gacha hits, has announced a follow-up to one inHonkai Impact 3rd Part 2. The next step inHonkai Impact 3rd‘s journey is due to depart in February 2024.
While many in the western world became familiar with HoYoverse / miHoYo throughGenshin Impact,Honkai Impact 3rdwas the game that came before, and still holds a solid playerbase throughout its seven-year lifespan. This new chapter,Honkai Impact 3rd Part 2, heads to Mars.

Check outthe first look belowto get a glimpse at what HoYoverse is cooking up for this new chapter:
It seems likeHonkai Impact 3rd Part 2is a direct follow-up to the baseHonkai Impact 3rd, but in what manner, I’m not sure. HoYoverse looks to be improving the combat, exploration, and more inPart 2, as well as departing on a new story branch of some kind.

I’ve played someGenshinand actually really dugHonkai Star Rail, but3rdhas eluded me a bit. Still, that might make this new release ofHonkai Impact 3rda good jumping-on point. Taking some of the popularity drummed up byGenshin ImpactandHonkai Star Rail, and then funneling it back into the two games’ predecessor, would be a good play to grab some curious folks already intrigued by HoYoverse’s world.
A world away
Still,Part 2isn’t the only impending HoYoverse title. Alongside updates toGenshinandStar Rail, the company is also still working onZenless Zone Zero, a stylish action RPG that’s been on my radar for a while.
HoYoverse recently confirmed thatZ3(as I call it in Slack) iscoming to consoles, alongside a PC and mobile version. It’s unclear when that might be, exactly, but it’s a nice addition.

And it’s another game to add to the growing roster of HoYoverse titles. Keeping up with them all seems like quite a lot, but if you like the look and charm of these games, it sure seems like you won’t be hurting for more of them next year.
