Listen to article

HoYoverse, the developer behind the global sensation Genshin Impact, is reportedly working on a new open-world game codenamed “Project Shanghai.” Drawing inspiration from Western titles like Grand Theft Auto, this project is said to be more ambitious than any of HoYoverse’s previous endeavors.

According to reports, Project Shanghai is being developed by a team that includes former developers from major Western studios such as Ubisoft and Electronic Arts. The game has undergone two reboots, indicating HoYoverse’s commitment to refining its vision for this title.

While specific details about the game’s setting and art style remain under wraps, it’s unclear whether Project Shanghai will adopt a realistic aesthetic or continue with the anime-inspired visuals characteristic of HoYoverse’s previous titles.

The development of Project Shanghai aligns with HoYoverse’s broader strategy to diversify its portfolio and explore new genres. The company has been investing in advanced technologies, including artificial intelligence, to enhance its gaming experiences.

As of now, HoYoverse has not officially announced Project Shanghai, and details about its release date and platforms are yet to be disclosed. However, the gaming community is eagerly awaiting more information about this ambitious project.
