Hunter X Hunter Nen X Impact Playable Characters
Hunter x Hunter Nen X Impact is an upcoming fighting game that features a variety of characters as seen in the franchise.
The Core Four!
- Gon – Of course, his famous Jajanken will be his main ability. However, players can also use his fishing rod to pull opponents to a desired distance.
- Killua – Killua’s moves focus on close-range attacks, as well as speed and agility… which is where Godspeed comes in! This ability makes him attack at high speeds, letting you deal a huge amount of damage to opponents.
- Leorio (it’s MISTER Leorio) – If you want to focus on support and long-range moves, Leorio is the man for you! His Fist Of Nen allows you to attack opponents while keeping your distance… just like what he did to Ging!
- Kurapika – If you know Kurapika, you’ll know his chain has multiple abilities. Expect to see Chain Jail, Holy Chain, Judgment Chain, and more!
Phantom Troupe Members
- Chrollo – His Indoor Fish lets him attack by himself or with his allies. He is a great leader, so expect him to lead your team to victory too!
- Hisoka – (Deep breath in…) Bungee Gum possesses the properties of both rubber and gum! Bungee Gum is one of Hisoka’s most used abilities, and you can use this to pull opponents closer to you. Of course, being a magician, his cards will also make an appearance. Let’s ignore the implications of having Hisoka under the Phantom Troupe heading…
- Uvo – With his larger build, he is great for blocking oncoming attacks. Not to mention, he’s extremely strong, so he deals with high-damage power attacks!
- Feitan – His Trick Umbrella skill comes in three variations for you to use. However, his best attack Unforgiven: Pain Packer, gets more powerful with decreased HP.
- Machi – Her Nen Thread Homing ability lets her slice and cut through opponents. She can also dash mid-air, for a quick attack.
Some Of The Best Nen Users!
- Meruem – The King uses a mix of skills. However, his tail will be great for quick attacks. Use it when opponents least expect it.
- Netero – His powerful ‘One Hundred Type Guanyin Bodhisattva’ deals an insane amount of damage! Enough to kill a Chimera Ant? No comment.
- Bisky – Bisky is one of the more versatile characters in the game. She may be small, but extremely strong!
Other
The official website doesn’t go into much detail about these characters and their abilities. However, we can make a pretty good guess on what their abilities will be.
- Kite – Crazy Slots has numbers 1-9, and each number correlates to a weapon. Although we only see a few of his weapons in the anime and manga, he can conjure a scythe, mace, and carbine.
- Morel – Morel uses a pipe to conjure up smoke, which he can also use to create replicas in battle! If you want a strong team member who has versatile attacks, Morel is the go-to!
- Genthru – He’s called the Bomber for a reason! His bombs deal extreme damage to others. He’ll go to any lengths to get what he wants, including blowing both his hands off, as seen in the anime.
- Razor – Razor can create powerful Nen beasts, which he calls ‘Devils’. These beasts, paired with his Aura Ball, will be sure to pack a punch!
Although I’m so excited with this line-up, I can’t help but miss Illumi. His Nen needles would be great to use in battle to manipulate opponents. I would also love to see Ging at a later date, as he is known to be one of the strongest Nen users in the world!
