Back in 2023, NetEase Games unveiled its ambitious urban open-world RPG, Project Mugen. Now reborn as Ananta, this visually stunning title promises a fusion of fantasy and cityscapes. From its rebranded identity to gameplay trailers, platform details, and a targeted release window, here's everything you need to know. Table of contents When does Ananta come out? What platforms will Ananta be on? All Ananta trailers What is Ananta about? When does Ananta come out? Currently, Ananta doesn't have an official release date, but there's speculation it could arrive in late 2025 or early 2026. Given the lack of updates since early this year, a 2026 release seems more likely. With no beta tests conducted yet (only one technical test so far), it may still be a while before the full launch. Image via Naked Rain Although there's no official release date, pre-registrations are already open on the game's official website. Millions of users have signed up, which could potentially lead to beta testing in the near future. Hopefully, by then, we'll get a clearer picture of Ananta's debut. What platforms will Ananta be on? Ananta will be available on PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Android, iOS, and PC. There's no confirmation yet on an Xbox release, but it's still a possibility, especially given NetEase Games' history with the platform. The game will also be free-to-play, making it accessible to a wide range of players.

Once the game goes live, players can expect a variety of activities like beach volleyball, mahjong, and basketball. Like any RPG, Ananta will feature plenty of combat. While it's often compared to HoYoverse titles, Ananta's combat mechanics stand out, allowing players to point and shoot with guns, as well as interact with the environment by throwing and using objects during battles. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n26InrperQE What is Ananta about? In the universe of Ananta, you'll play as an Agent in the Anti-Chaos Directorate (A.C.D.). Your mission: manage the chaos that's erupted along the coast of Nova City. Paranormal activity has flooded the streets, and it's up to the A.C.D. to uncover the secrets behind it before humanity slips into destruction. Stay alert, follow orders, and report any misdeeds to the command.

Befriend your fellow agents and dive into the heart of a metropolis on the brink. More Ananta characters are sure to be revealed at launch, and if it follows in the footsteps of HoYoverse titles, you can expect to step into the shoes of each one, assembling your own elite team of Agents. Each brings its own style, skills, and secrets to uncover—choosing the right combo might just tip the scales in your fight against unknown enemies.
