Morefun Studios' highly anticipated action title, previously known as Hitori no Shita: The Outcast, is back! Now rebranded as The Hidden Ones, this 3D brawler, based on the popular webcomic, is set for a 2025 release, with a pre-alpha test slated for January.
The game, set in modern-day China, follows Zhang Chulan, a young martial artist who discovers his grandfather's teachings are highly sought after in the world of martial arts. The latest gameplay trailer showcases impressive 3D combat, featuring parkour-style maneuvers, energy projectile exchanges, and intense brawling sequences, alongside secondary protagonist Wang Ye.
While tracking down information on The Hidden Ones has proven challenging due to the multiple names associated with the project, initial impressions suggest a promising release from Morefun Studios. The game's darker, grittier aesthetic sets it apart from other 3D ARPGs.
Ultimately, The Hidden Ones' success hinges on its ability to attract players unfamiliar with the source material. In the meantime, fans eager for more kung-fu action can explore our list of top brawlers for iOS and Android.
