Free-to-play RPG where you fight beautifully

Honkai Impact 3 is a free-to-play, 3D, action-RPG game that immerses you into the dangerous conflict against otherworldly monsters. Developed by miHoYo and originally released back in 2016, Honkai Impact 3 or Honkai Impact 3rd is the third installment in the Honkai Gakuen series, recycling most of the old characters into a new and separate story. In this role-playing game, the world is in an alternate timeline wherein otherworld cataclysms known as the Honkai ravage the planet. Valkyries, trained female fighters under the command of the Schicksal Organization, are tasked to suppress these threats. You play as the Captain of the flying battleship Hyperion and are in charge of these warriors.

Save the world, Captain

Honkai Impact 3’s combat system features real-time hack-and-slash and beat ‘em up gameplay, a rock-paper-scissors-based character role mechanic, and 3 Valkyrie characters in a team whenever you enter a battle. You control one Valkyrie, while the other two are AI-controlled. The game allows you to seamlessly switch between them whenever. You need to augment Valkyries Honkai Energy and equip them with various battlesuits, weapons, and Stigmata—equipable character cards that boost stats—to survive. You can obtain Valkyries, battlesuits, weapons, and Stigmata via crafting or the gacha feature. 

Honkai Impact 3 is notable for incorporating a variety of video game genres in its game mechanics. For one, there is the main story campaign, a side story campaign that features Hard Mode, and an open-world exploration campaign featuring special characters. These all have visual novel-style cutscenes and even fully-animated cutscenes. Outside of single-player mode, you can also participate in multiplayer combat with co-op raids and arena boss fights. 

If you’re tired of combat, you can relax with the Dorm mode, which allows you to interact with the Valkyries and their Stigmata once you unlock them. You can even decorate your dorm and visit other players’. All in all, Honkai Impact 3 has so much for you to do—so much, in fact, that you may get overwhelmed by the number of activities you can quickly unlock. This is a great title to try out, however—especially when this PC version allows cross-platform play.
