Back in the middle of December, we learned that details about some Hunter x Hunter fighting game would be revealed today — January 6, 2024. The premise of this fighting game sounded interesting considering that Eighting, codeveloper behind Marvel vs. Capcom 3 and Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3, was acting as the developer behind this fighting game.
Needless to say, a trailer dropped for the game. Although this trailer doesn’t actually show any gameplay for “Hunter x Hunter Nen Impact,” it’s clearly indicated that this is a 3v3 team fighting game.
The six revealed characters for the game so far are Gon, Killua, Kurapika, Leorio, Hisoka and Netero. It appears that a player may arrange their team however they like.
Since we weren’t able to actually see any gameplay, it’s currently unknown if the gameplay will be a 2.5D 3v3 fighting game Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 and Dragon Ball FighterZ, or a 3D arena fighter like Naruto: Clash of Ninja, a series that Eighting is also known to be a developer for.
During the trailer, all six characters are seen walking out into the tournament stage. As of right now, no details have been revealed about the game’s release window or which platforms it will be available for.
