The game is out on July 17, and before this day, you can treat yourself to a pre-order bonus. Nen Impact has a couple of choices in physical and digital editions.

Arc System Works treats us to the first-ever full-fledged Hunter x Hunter game of the fighting genre. Nen Impact is full of fast-paced tag team battles! Are you ready to land those spectacular and often just ridiculously cool combos?

Hunter x Hunter Nen x Impact has been made deep specifically for dedicated esports players to unleash the power of their skills. However, the game is exceptionally friendly for beginners — thanks to the universal simplified input. The craziest Supers are easy to perform!

The fighting games community (FGC) had a chance to try out Nen Impact during a few big esports events, such as Evo Japan and Combo Breaker. People give pretty positive feedback on that experience, so purchasing and playing the game feels like a good idea.

Pre-order bonus for Hunter x Hunter Nen x Impact depends on your platform

Back in the times of early Soulcalibur games, players received unique characters depending on the system, like Link on GameCube or Dart Vaider on PlayStation 3.

In a way, this interesting tradition returns with the pre-order bonus for Hunter x Hunter Nen x Impact. Thank goodness, the developers are not that cruel to lock playable characters to specific platforms. They add exclusive colors for different fighters.

  • PlayStation — Killua color variation
  • Steam — Hisoka
  • Nintendo Switch — Gon

Nen Impact digital editions

In the most popular digital form nowadays, the Hunter x Hunter fighting game is available in two editions.

  • Standard Edition includes the base game only.
  • Deluxe Edition gives players the base game and all the DLC characters of Season Pass 1. Neferpitou is the first to join the playable roster.
