The gameplay trailer for Ananta was released at Tokyo Game Show, and it is a fusion of a lot of games inside a big playground. The free-to-play Urban Open World RPG game is like an anime combined with GTA, Batman: Arkham, Spider-Man, Watch Dogs, Yakuza and many more. The icing on the cake of the crazy action is the use of OneRepublic’s “Sunshine.” Ananta will be headed to PC, PlayStation 5, and mobile platforms.

From NetEase Games and Naked Rain, the 7-minute trailer shows off the possibilities of Ananta including driving in the urban world, swinging like Spider-Man across skylines, and fighting like Batman. Like Grand Theft Auto 5, you can switch between different characters.
