This weekend is special for all anime and manga fans, as Jump Festa 2024 is being held. The event already surprised with some announcements for gamers. One of the most prominent is related to an acclaimed franchise that will have a new fighting game: Hunter x Hunter.
A Hunter x Hunter fighting game is in development
Even though Yoshihiro Togashi has not finished Hunter x Hunter, the popularity of his franchise is still very high. Because of this, Bushiroad and Eighting studios decided to pick up the saga of Gon and company to make a fighting game.
The news has fans of the genre and Japanese animation excited, as the developers have worked on franchises such as Bloody Roar, Marvel vs. Capcom (specifically the third installment) and Fate/unlimited codes.
For now there are very few details about the game, but we know that it will focus squarely on the Hunter x Hunter universe. Thus, it is expected that the roster will have its most popular characters and that its mechanics will be based on the lore of the anime.
Fans will have to wait just a little bit for more information on the title, as on January 6, 2024 there will be a special presentation. It is expected that at least some screenshots of the title will be revealed and its name will be confirmed. Currently, the developers have not revealed a release window or the platforms on which it will be available.
