HoyoVerse opens final test for Honkai: Nexus Anima — test runs from 25th
Key takeaways
- Recruitment began on the 5th
- Final closed test runs from the 25th on Android, iOS, and PC
- All test data will be wiped after the final closed test
- Participants chosen by lottery via official website survey
HoyoVerse has started recruiting participants for the final closed test of Honkai: Nexus Anima, beginning the sign-up process on the 5th. The test itself will run from the 25th on Android, iOS and PC, and the studio says players will see expanded story content alongside new characters, anima, and regions.
The game's opening area, Iya Village, gains several new explorable spaces: a traditional bank lobby, a building office, and a lighthouse island. The update also adds a dedicated camper van for resting during adventures and a system for creating anima habitats. Field exploration will let players discover anima in chroma forms and new juvenile anima, then grow and evolve them through play.
HoyoVerse is adjusting the limited bond systems named "Limited Bond: Simang" and "Limited Bond: Anima." The first 5-star simang and anima a player obtains during the period are guaranteed to be the period's limited versions, and obtaining a limited simang will grant a companion anima for free. New interaction options — holding hands, hugging, and asking to be lifted — were added to deepen contact with your anima.
On the combat side, the new Nexus Arena lets players form teams freely and match against opponents to climb tiers. World and challenge stages will feature tougher enemies than before. The final closed test will be wiped after it ends; all participant data will be initialized. Players who want to try the content must complete the recruitment survey on the official website and will be selected by lottery.
Why it matters
If you want to sample the Iya Village additions, the anima evolution path, or the new Nexus Arena before launch, sign the official recruitment survey — remember that progress in this final closed test will be erased when it finishes.
