Arc System Works Co., Ltd. is delighted to announce the global release date of the long-awaited HUNTER x HUNTER NEN x IMPACT, due to launch on July 17, 2025! Players all around the world will be able to experience the series’ debut in the fighting game genre.

HUNTER x HUNTER NEN x IMPACT is a 3-on-3 fighting game based on the iconic anime and manga series HUNTER x HUNTER, written and illustrated by Yoshihiro Togashi. In this game, players create a team of three characters and battle against the opposing team with a tag system: calling out their allies for an assisting attack, or for swapping characters on the fly!
