Anime News Network published a review of Neverness to Everness (NTE), the new open-world mobile/PC game from Hotta Studio and Perfect World Games. After 30 hours of play, the reviewer concludes the game successfully evokes Grand Theft Auto comparisons in scale but lacks narrative depth and mechanical substance. The game is described as 'anime-style gacha' with impressive world-building that fails to deliver meaningful gameplay.
animenewsnetwork dropped a 30-hour review of neverness to everness, the new gacha game from the tower of fantasy devs. verdict: it's an anime gta that looks the part but doesn't have the depth to back it up. big world, shallow soul.
Neverness to Everness represents a major bet by Hotta Studio to capture the open-world gacha market, directly inviting comparisons to GTA. The mixed early reception signals that visual fidelity and scale alone may not satisfy players who expect richer gameplay loops. This review adds to a growing discourse about the gap between ambition and execution in mobile-first AAA titles.
hotta studio is trying to make the next big gacha hit by going full gta, but early word is it's all show and no go. if this review is any sign, the mobile games space might be hitting a ceiling on 'bigger = better'.
