Bushiroad Games added that more details on the upcoming title will be revealed at the Bushiroad New Year's Grand Presentation 2024 event on January 6, 2024, at the Tokyo Dome City Hall.

HUNTER x HUNTER is an anime franchise drawn and written by Yoshihiro Togashi that began serialization in Weekly Shonen Jump in 1998.

Along with Bushiroad Games' involvement in the game, Eighting is also involved in its development. Eighting is known for co-developing the recent DNF Duel with Arc System Works, which was a fighting game based on the Dungeon Fighter IP. Other games that Eighting has worked on are both versions of Marvel vs. Capcom 3 and even the older Tatsunoko vs. Capcom: Ultimate All-Stars. We'll have to wait for January 6 to get more information on the game, but it's a plausible prediction for it to either follow the tag fighter formula like Marvel vs Capcom or the traditional fighter formula like DNF Duel.
