Honkai Impact 3rd is getting a massive Part 2 update soon—and fans are divided

After seven years of continuous service, Honkai Impact 3rd will see a new dawn in February 2024 with the “Part 2” update. Announced today by miHoYo CEO Da Wei across social media, the initial trailer and information reveal have already split its player base. 

For being the oldest of the current slate of HoYoverse titles, Impact 3rd is without a doubt the least popular in the West. Its hack-and-slash, dungeon-crawling style of gameplay resembles the mechanics demonstrated in Genshin Impact and the upcoming Zenless Zone Zero.
