Summary

Key takeaways

  • Ananta is scheduled for PlayStation 5, Windows PC, Android and iOS.
  • Players investigate supernatural threats across two open-world cities.
  • Grand Theft Auto 6 is scheduled for 2026 on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X.

Grand Theft Auto 6 sets the comparison

Grand Theft Auto 6 is set for release in 2026 on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X. Ananta’s scheduled arrival in early 2027 puts NetEase’s game after the release year listed for Rockstar Games’ title.

The comparison extends beyond driving around an open world. Ananta combines city exploration and side activities with anime-style visuals, while borrowing movement mechanics associated with Marvel’s Spider-Man. Genshin Impact is also among its inspirations.

Ananta’s game release date and platforms

Ananta’s release is scheduled for January 15, 2027, on PlayStation 5 and Windows PC, with versions for Android and iOS. NetEase presented the game at Gamescom Opening Night Live.

The release-date trailer introduces the game’s supernatural story before showing more of the city-based gameplay. One sequence features the protagonist hanging from the side of a plane in flight, alongside footage emphasizing vehicles and exploration.

Supernatural investigations across two cities

Players take the role of a supernatural investigator battling evil across two open-world cities. The premise combines that central mission with opportunities to explore beyond the main story.

Travel includes scooters, cars and futuristic vehicles, with gameplay showing both driving and flying. Earlier trailers also show characters swinging through the anime-style cities in a manner reminiscent of Spider-Man.

Ananta’s gameplay features extend to mini-games and other activities outside the main story.
