lol Bullshit. We all know this was also based off Spider-Man 😂 Just nobody wants to say it due to their fame of their games already. The tricks in the sky after the grappling rope is all Spider man right there.
Finally, more GTA clones! I thought they all died out! Devs need to stop being scared and make more come games so they have a rivalry and keep giving us great games!
The recent official PlayStation trailer also gave this game some additional credibility. I really like the mix of features they have shown, and the main characters design, so would kinda like this game to be real and to be good. Thank you so much for the detailed explanation and for the video!

I hope it's not a Gacha game, I don't want another game with FOMO, battlepasses, limited time banners, limited time events, trash RNGs, limited time skins etc., I hate joining a gacha late and finding out the character i'm interested in would take 6 months to be released again.
@@egoro8905 It's establised that it's free to play, as is directly stated on their webpage and social media. As for whether that means that it's gacha or some other kind of microtransactions is not confirmed however. Most likely it's gacha because that's the most obvious thing to assume but we'll see.
But you can drive and possibly customise vehicles like GTA. It has both. Plus the city socials, changable clothing, local activities etc, there's a lot in common with GTA, plenty to make it an obvious inspiration. It also looks like a Hoyo game, I mean they literally ripped Kiana's character design into the game. They're pulling from all over the place. Big ambitions, big promises. Just have to see if they can pull it off effectively.
Thanks for all the information Havian, very helpful as always! I hope the way this game tells its story content and quest will be interactive as it shows. because it would be a bummer with that so much potential and possibilty, if it ended by just hours of yap with excuse just to get deepen with its lore or world building 💀
If this is a Gacha ? It will without a shadow of a doubt blow the pockets out of players, I’ll even consider doing a little petty spending here and there 😂
Still wish games like this would put co-op in, and the second player just isn't in cut-scenes. So I can play with my friends in a living breathing world without trolls.
Thank you very much for compiling this information as the trailer that came out last week kind of confused me as to what this game was supposed to be. However, I do think it's funny that you refused to acknowledge the major "inspiration" for this games featured movement. The swinging was ripped directly from the Spider-Man games and the snippet of stealth we saw also looks ripped from those games too!
I touched on this in a reply to another comment. It's more a case of the lead producer playing the mentioned games / movies as a kid, and it inspired them to make the game. The Prototype games did remind him of Venom though, so there is some crossover. Here's what I wrote before: "That's because Spiderman wasn't mentioned as a direct inspiration for the game itself. When questioned about Spiderman, the developers said they just wanted to add a way for players to quickly move around the map, and grappling / swinging was one of those methods. I'm sure they would have looked at Spiderman for inspiration for swinging though, since it's the game that does it best, and there's no denying the animations look very similar. The stealth aspect is pretty universal though, it's been done like that in many games and there aren't many ways to be unique with crouching on a plank."
I feel like gacha would be the safest bet if they want profit, but maybe they could make it the most generous one out there, that would incentivice players to play and/or spend more, maybe make it possible to get the characters by grinding and without pulling, making it just an option, there will always be those that can't wait and would buy the characters right away, now that would mean they probably wouldn't get updates as quickly as other gacha games, but that could be fixed by having a lot.of content at launch, altho that means a lot of investment, and maybe very small updates every now and then with big updates separated by many months, like how they plan to have a new city every year.
For the love of all that is holy, let me customize the main character. That what put me off on all hoyoverse games, idc if my character has a voice, just let me customize how they look.
Ok, ANANTA looks realy nice, but the fact that they didnt even mention any kind of Spider-man game as a reference or even Spidey himself seems realy shady to me like are you guys realy thinking we wouldt notice? Otherwise the "more than one city" apporach sonds realy fun to me - lets wait and see! Also changing the protagonists looks would be a first for a game like that. Very welcome Idea dosent matter if its a gotcha or not in the end. Any form of character-creation is new and welcomed
I was sold on the part where there won't be stamina limitations for traveling. That's the main thing I hate about open world gacha games. Its so annoying and takes the fun out of exploration when you have to worry about stamina. It's not hurting anyone to allow us to swing around as much as we want. That's really all I want to do is just explore the world and feel like a badass ninja doing it lol
he said they will only have 4 people in that big world playing together naw do it like gta allow 30 people in the world at the same time it'll be more fun it's a big world to share and if people want to just play with just there friends have an option like private lobbies please do this it'll be more fun trust me were social beings
Marvel spider man 2 traversals, GTA 6 cities, etc. It's like all the games we have ever dreamed of in one game not to mention inspiration from some movies. Who are the developers of this game?
@@markhettenbach3141 No, I am very interested too, just found it a bit weird that havian didn't mention it when talking about the influences of the game.

From the story description, It seems like they took the plotline from the anime called Charlotte and made it into a video game. I don't really see much of this game being a GTA clone and this description seem to only come from casual who only point of reference to anime is DBZ, Persona, or Genshin Impact.
The people that made the game said they were influenced by GTA, and the overall plot and themes were also influenced by anime and the movies mentioned. Both can be true for different reasons.
@HavianCritDmg GTA is a satire of modern society where you play as criminals, This game's story literally almost seem like a 1 to 1 clone of Charlotte moreso than GTA.
The story could very similar to charlotte (I also watched it years ago), but just keep in mind they're referring to more than just the story. I mentioned in the video that they wanted a similar feel to GTA but without the crime / mature themes. Think more along the lines of gameplay and city exploration.
I get where you're coming from lol. They probably wanted to use the series that is most known for having a seamless open world set within a city as a foundation, when making their own open world city game. With similar actions like taking over people's cars etc. Think of it like GTA, but you're playing from the perspective of the police, rather than the criminals (Sleeping dogs was similar, but the themes were still crime/mature instead of supernatural). In Persona it's still set within a city, but it's broken up into small hub areas. The gameplay focuses more on balancing your social / secret life while following a calendar schedule, rather than just freely roaming a city and doing whatever you want. If that makes sense.
The potential for gacha monetization is a concern, but the vibe definitely looks fun. 6:37 The Running of the Toilets, eh? They are certainly right that the quality of the game needs to be good first and foremost or else any monetization becomes meaningless; just look at games like Suicide Squad as an example.
Don't like how these games basically never get to xbox, genshin impact being on xbox is crazy enough but that only happened like 3 or 4 years later. Missed out on a lot of players
This is so peak, just a problem though. I sure do hope it won't only have female introduced playable character, but male also. It will feel so pale and empty to play such an amazing upcoming game without no males playable character in it. I could imagine setting up as a male mc and feel none bromance at all in a game that have freedom. Imagine all the funny and worthwhile interaction as you go around the seemingly vast world of Ananta and have fun with your 'homie' Yeah, I want to see that.
What do you mean? PC is an Xbox. I'm texting on my phone that's an Xbox, even my PlayStation is an Xbox according to Microsoft as the other day I got 10 second silent ad say I'm watching this on an Xbox while watching UA-cam on my PS5 😂 By pure Microsoft's definition everything is an Xbox so it's coming to an xbox.

I dont understand what is gta about it? All i see is: Yakuza(object use during combat, misc activities, like dart), genshin(combat animation and feel), spider man(movement) and maybe Infamous(telekinesis ability) or saints row 4. Also in trailer i really liked music, it reminded me of DoA venus vacation, very chill and relaxed.
I'll play it, I'll probably enjoy it but it's most likely a gacha so I can't be super exited for that aspect of it. Really bored of cool looking anime styled games that end up being mobile gacha games
i hope we can just buy the characters we want to play or something like that Even tho I love Games like Genshin, it's hard to wait and wait for banners

This game really has my attention. My main concern is finding enough memory space on my PS5. The game looks massive, and that's with just one city.
The band/club/partying scenes are likely cinematic backdrop to rhythm mini games, I'm guessing.
