Morefun Studios' highly anticipated 3D action game, previously known as Hitori no Shita: The Outcast, is back with a new title: The Hidden Ones. Set for a 2025 release, with a pre-alpha test slated for January, this game promises a thrilling blend of 3D brawling and parkour.
Based on the popular webcomic, The Hidden Ones follows Zhang Chulan, a young martial artist who discovers his grandfather's fighting techniques are highly sought after—and those seeking them aren't taking "no" for an answer.
The recently released gameplay trailer (see below) showcases impressive visuals and introduces secondary protagonist Wang Ye. Expect dynamic parkour sequences, intense 3D martial arts combat, energy projectile exchanges, and thrilling brawls.
A Darker, Grittier Take on Kung Fu
Tracking down information on The Hidden Ones has proven challenging, especially given the game's multiple names. However, initial impressions suggest a truly impressive release from Morefun Studios. The game's grittier, darker aesthetic stands out, offering a more grounded feel than many other 3D ARPGs.
The game's success will hinge on its ability to attract players unfamiliar with the source material.
