Neverness to Everness is an exciting free-to-play open-world anime adventure game that aspires to compete with Genshin Impact. Here’s a comprehensive overview of what we know about it to date.
Often referred to as “anime GTA,” Neverness to Everness has swiftly garnered attention from gamers. Created by Hotta Studio, known for Tower of Fantasy, this title focuses on dynamic character-driven action set in a vibrant urban open-world environment infused with supernatural elements.
In contrast to Genshin Impact, this game places significant importance on vehicle mechanics, allowing players to cruise through its neon-lit streets.
Platforms for Neverness to Everness
Neverness to Everness is set to be available on PC, mobile devices, PS5, and other consoles.
While there hasn’t been any communication regarding its release on Xbox, more information about available platforms is expected soon.
The anticipation surrounding Neverness to Everness is palpable.
Is it Coming to Nintendo Switch?
Presently, Hotta Studio has not announced plans for Neverness to Everness to be available on Nintendo Switch.
Although no official information has surfaced regarding a potential Switch release, it’s worth mentioning that Hotta Studio’s previous title, Tower of Fantasy, did not launch on Nintendo’s console either.
Furthermore, other successful gacha games such as Genshin Impact, Honkai Star Rail, and Wuthering Waves have also bypassed the Switch, likely due to challenges with porting and the system’s limited capabilities.
Nevertheless, since NTE aims for a mobile-friendly experience, there’s still a chance that Hotta Studio could bring this urban open-world title to the Switch eventually. For now, to enjoy Neverness to Everness at launch, players will need a PC, PS5, or mobile device.
Is There a Release Date?
Currently, Hotta Studio has not announced when Neverness to Everness will be released.
While there was speculation about an unveiling in September 2024, the game did officially make its appearance at the 2024 Tokyo Game Show that month. However, no specific release date information was disclosed at that time.
As information becomes available, updates will be provided here.
Neverness to Everness is designed to stand alongside Genshin Impact and Zenless Zone Zero.
Is Neverness to Everness Free to Play?
Indeed, Neverness to Everness will be a free-to-play game.
This was confirmed by Hotta Studio Producer Kee Zhang on the official PlayStation Blog. As it is a free-to-play mobile title, players can expect the standard free and premium currency systems.
Is It a Gacha Game?
Hotta Studio has not officially confirmed whether Neverness to Everness will include gacha mechanics. However, given its characteristic gameplay and anime style, it is highly likely that a gacha system will be incorporated.
Previously, Hotta Studio’s Tower of Fantasy featured banners allowing players to obtain new characters and weapons, further suggesting that a similar system could be adopted in NTE.
Gameplay Overview for Neverness to Everness
On July 16, 2024, Hotta Studio shared the first gameplay footage of Neverness to Everness, offering a glimpse of its colorful character designs and urban open-world setting.
Much like Genshin Impact, NTE showcases character-driven combat where each character possesses unique skills referred to as Espers.
The game’s Producer noted that characters can harness anti-gravity for vertical movement and can also manipulate their surroundings.
The vehicle gameplay showcased in the trailer stood out, featuring characters navigating a vibrant city. It appeared that players would have the ability to explore seamlessly and enhance their vehicles at local garages.
There also seems to be a personalized headquarters within the game, which includes stylish furnishings, collectibles, and even a swimming pool.
On September 26, 2024, another gameplay trailer was released, highlighting new characters, dynamic driving and combat features, along with the lively city of Hethereau.
Character Roster
As of now, three characters have been officially revealed in Neverness to Everness. Below is a table with their descriptions:
Character Name | DESCRIPTION |

As | Mint is an emerging talent in the Bureau of Anomaly Control’s Containment Unit 2, known for her vast knowledge of people and places in Hethereau.

Nanally | As the star of the antique store “Eibon,” Nanally is highly regarded in the Bridge District. With a strong and unwavering character, she has participated in several major Anomaly containment missions, executing her signature move, the “Coluccis Ultimate Death Shadow Nether Punch,” making her nearly unbeatable! |
Sakiri | Sakiri enforces order at the antique shop “Eibon,” reminding everyone not to feed Kiroumaru random things. Beware of her if angered, as her Anomaly hammer Kiroumaru is a force to be reckoned with! |
