NetEase is throwing its hat in the ring as it aims to deliver an experience similar to what games like Tower of Fantasy and Genshin Impact have brought to the gaming community in the past years. Alongside Naked Rain, NetEase has announced Project Mugen. As of writing, Project Mugen is still its working title, so expect a new name for the game in the coming months. NetEase Games usually releases games for smartphones. However, that doesn’t seem to be the case with Project Mugen. Keep reading to learn more about Project Mugen, including the possible release date, available platforms, and if it will arrive on consoles.

The devs say this is their “love letter to urban fantasies.” The game will take its players on a wild ride filled with mystery while enjoying the beautiful sights of Project Mugen’s urban setting.

It’s also possible for NetEase’s upcoming release to have similar elements to Genshin Impact and Tower of Fantasy. It features characters from different backgrounds (five confirmed so far) and impressive combat systems. However, Project Mugen stands out from the rest because of how players can traverse the city.

The latest trailer showcases this mechanic, with some users becoming interested in the game because of it.
- In the trailer, we see one of the characters run up the side of a building.
- Then, the character grapples onto the rooftop of the building, hurling themselves towards the enemies.
- Another highlight is your ability to swing across the skyscrapers like Peter Parker and Miles Morales.
