Tencent Pushes Back The Hidden Ones Pre-Alpha Playtest to Next Month

The highly anticipated pre-alpha playtest for The Hidden Ones, the action brawler based on the popular Hitori No Shita: The Outcast franchise, has been rescheduled. Originally slated for next week, Tencent Games and MoreFun Studios have announced a new launch date of February 27th, 2025. This two-month delay will allow the developers to refine the game and ensure a superior player experience, as stated on the game's official website.

A Deep Dive into The Hidden Ones

Prepare for an adrenaline-pumping martial arts experience steeped in Eastern philosophy. The Hidden Ones blends Taoism, Yin Yang, and modern combat into a captivating world of mythical martial arts. Players will delve into a cinematic narrative, unraveling the stories of the Outcasts and mastering unique character abilities rooted in their individual philosophies.

The game features several engaging modes:

  • Duel Mode: Engage in intense player-versus-player combat.
  • Action Roulette: Dynamically acquire opponent skills mid-battle, adding an unpredictable element to the gameplay.
  • Trial Mode: Conquer a series of progressively difficult boss battles, demanding mastery of diverse characters and fighting styles. Each boss encounter is directly linked to a chapter in the overarching martial arts saga, evolving in complexity alongside the player's skill.
