Neverness to Everness launched earlier today, offering a huge and immersive world to explore. It's set in Hethereau, a fictional urban metropolis with an aesthetic reminiscent of modern American and East Asian cities, which players can freely traverse on foot or via a range of customizable vehicles. Although it's not available right now, developer Hotta Studio has already confirmed an upcoming Porsche collab, which will add the real-world Porsche 918 Spyder to drive.

Like any good open-world game, the city is home to loads of different activities. You can go fishing to unlock skins, play a variety of mini-games like Mahjong, visit a wealth of in-game shops, and even jump into some cooperative online multiplayer modes. There are loads of collectibles, too, plus a healthy dose of side quests to keep you busy.

Although Neverness to Everness has an unapologetically anime-inspired art direction, it's elevated by some pretty impressive tech. Built on Unreal Engine 5, it features global ray tracing for realistic lighting and Nvidia DLSS support. A modern urban fantasy (Image credit: Hotta Studio) I've been dipping in and out of the game throughout the morning, and feel like I've
only really scratched the surface of what's there. It looks like the game
will even feature light romance options, raising an overall bond level with unlocked characters, and even the option to move in with your favorite.

There's even a basic wanted level system that punishes you for taking
vehicles that don't belong to you by force or hitting others with attacks la Grand Theft Auto . Get daily insight, inspiration and deals in your inbox

The main story has the player step into the shoes of an unnamed Anomaly Hunter, an individual tasked with taking down sinister paranormal entities terrorizing the city.

The translation seems a bit rough so far, especially compared to the more polished writing of competitors like Zenless Zone Zero , but it still
provides some decent framing for missions, which so far have involved plenty of hack-and-slash combat.

It's a gacha game, so of course has a cast of colorful characters that you
can unlock through progression or by dropping some real-world cash on an in-game purchase.

In the build-up to launch, the game hit more than 35 million pre-registrations, and if you're interested in diving in now that launch day has arrived, it's available for PC, PlayStation 5, iOS and Android.
