It looks like there are five new Hoyoverse games on the horizon

Alongside Astaweave Haven, new info suggests four other new Hoyoverse games are in the works, covering a huge range of genres and styles.

Based on new information, it looks like we’ve got five new Hoyoverse games to look forward to over the coming years, covering a huge range of genres. What’s more, Hoyoverse may be pivoting away from the gacha game market with these new titles.

Frequent Hoyoverse tipster @hxg_diluc on Twitter posted a list of five of the company’s ongoing game projects based on a recent job posting. One of the games sounds like Astaweave Haven, the chibi farm game that recently obtained licensing approval, but the other four sound like completely new projects.

Two of the new games reportedly use Unreal Engine 5, suggesting that Hoyoverse is moving away from Unity, which it used to develop its games like Genshin Impact. The fourth entry in the list is a Honkai series lifestyle game like Pokémon which sounds like a dream come true to us Hoyoverse fans. The Honkai series always features impeccable storytelling, and who doesn’t love a Pokémon clone?

The final game on the list is a “cartoon, near-future multiplayer” shmup, which hxg_diluc specifies is a Western-style cartoon rather than another anime game. We have no idea what this could look like, but we’re intrigued. Additionally, Twitter user @Sty1es2099 claims that “most of these are buy-to-play games” as “none of these games are managed by Da Wei” and “the gacha game market is saturated.”
