Morefun Studios' highly anticipated 3D action brawler, previously known as Hitori no Shita: The Outcast, is back! Now titled The Hidden Ones, this game promises a thrilling experience blending 3D brawling, parkour, and intense martial arts action, slated for release in 2025.

A recent pre-alpha test in January fueled excitement for the game's 2025 launch. Set in modern-day China, the story follows Zhang Chulan, a young martial artist who discovers his grandfather's unique fighting techniques are highly sought after, leading him into a world of intense conflict.

The latest gameplay trailer (see below) showcases impressive visuals, including the secondary protagonist Wang Ye, and highlights the game's dynamic combat system. Expect exhilarating parkour sequences, energy projectile exchanges, and intense close-quarters brawling.

A Gritty Reimagining

Information on The Hidden Ones has been scarce, adding to the intrigue surrounding this title with its multiple names. However, initial impressions suggest a visually striking game with a darker, grittier aesthetic than many other 3D ARPGs. While not photorealistic, the style appears grounded and impactful.

The game's success will hinge on its ability to attract players unfamiliar with the source material. Morefun Studios faces the challenge of captivating a broader audience beyond existing fans of the webcomic.
