In the vibrant world of Hunter x Hunter, few characters leave a lasting impression like Kite. A skilled Hunter and Ging Freecss’ esteemed apprentice, Kite’s journey intrigues many. He originally met Gon far earlier in the manga and the first anime adaptation than in the well-known 2011 version, which highlights his deep roots in the series.
Upcoming Game Buzz
The excitement doesn’t stop with past tales, though. The gaming realm is abuzz with the upcoming release of Hunter x Hunter: Nen x Impact. This anticipated fighting game boasts a robust roster of sixteen characters welcoming players this summer. Expect to see familiar faces like Gon and Killua. Surprisingly, the game will also feature powerhouses such as Feitan, Genthru, Bisky, and Meruem. Slated for a summer 2025 launch, it will be available on PS5, Nintendo Switch, and Windows PC.
Kite Steps into Action
Bushiroad has fans thrilled with an exciting announcement—Kite is coming to Nen x Impact as a playable character. This is big news for aficionados of strategic gameplay. With his knack for calculated warfare, Kite uses projectiles to control the field, keeping foes at a distance. His special move, Silent Waltz, shatters defenses, opening avenues for devastating combos.
Originally, in the series, Kite’s signature ability, Crazy Slots, involved random weapon selection. Yet, in Nen x Impact, randomness is out; consistency is in. Kite now steadies his aim with a carbine, and Silent Waltz takes center stage as his primary special move.
Adding authenticity, esteemed voice actor Shuichi Ikeda reprises his role as Kite. This ensures that the character’s in-game portrayal echoes the series’ essence.
A Tribute to Hunters
As the buzz builds towards its release, Hunter x Hunter: Nen x Impact aims to encapsulate the series’ heart. With a wide-ranging roster and unique abilities, it promises a thrilling experience for both veterans and newcomers. Kite’s inclusion enriches the lineup, bringing a distinctive fighting style that aligns with his series counterpart.
In summary, Kite’s addition to the game adds another layer of depth. His unique combat techniques and faithful representation are set to deliver a captivating gameplay experience. The anticipation builds as we edge closer to witnessing this all come to life with the summer launch.
