HoYoverse unveils Nodus Fall gameplay at Gamescom Opening Night Live 2026
HoYoverse revealed gameplay for its upcoming title Nodus Fall at Gamescom Opening Night Live 2026 on August 26, 2026, presenting the cooperative action RPG to the event audience.
Developed by the studio behind Genshin Impact, Nodus Fall is introduced as a new cooperative action RPG that prioritizes fast-paced combat, teamwork and battles against giant monsters, with the reveal trailer drawing comparisons to Capcom’s Monster Hunter franchise.
Footage shown during the Gamescom Opening Night Live presentation emphasised collaborative play: players are required to work together to bring down enormous giants and monsters, using distinct classes and abilities to complement each other in combat.
The trailer suggested that characters will occupy unique combat roles, with one on-screen character using lightning-infused attacks while another demonstrated the ability to revive fallen teammates; multiple weapon types were visible, including greatswords, standard swords and bows.
Visually, the presentation highlighted anime-inspired character designs, polished character models and expansive environments, and the reveal implied a large, interconnected world of exploration and challenging hunts while stopping short of declaring the game a full open world.
HoYoverse did not provide a release date during the reveal and has not confirmed the game’s business model; the trailer and announcement offered no indication whether Nodus Fall will be free-to-play or include gacha mechanics.

The developer has released gameplay footage but left timeline and monetisation details unannounced, and the publisher or fans may receive additional information in future updates.
