Morefun Studios' highly anticipated 3D action game, formerly known as Hitori no Shita: The Outcast, is back with a new name and release date! Now titled The Hidden Ones, this exciting project is set to launch in 2025, with a pre-alpha test scheduled for January.
Based on the popular webcomic, The Hidden Ones plunges players into modern-day China, following the journey of young martial artist Zhang Chulan. His grandfather's seemingly ordinary martial arts techniques turn out to be highly sought after, thrusting Chulan into a world of intense conflict.
The recently released gameplay trailer showcases impressive visuals and action sequences, including the introduction of secondary protagonist Wang Ye. Expect exhilarating parkour, dynamic 3D combat, energy projectile exchanges, and intense brawling.
A New Identity
Tracking down information on The Hidden Ones has proven challenging, given the series' multiple names. However, initial impressions suggest a truly impressive game from Morefun Studios. The game's darker, grittier aesthetic stands out, offering a more grounded feel compared to other 3D ARPGs.
The game's success, however, hinges on its ability to attract players unfamiliar with the source material.
