SEARCH QUESTIONS / 10
Questions players actually ask.
Direct answers, with the evidence level stated rather than implied.
01How does combat work in ANANTA?+
ANANTA combat is built around improvisation rather than a fixed weapon rotation: you read the enemy’s weapon and the terrain, defend with intent, disarm when an opening appears, then convert with the stolen weapon or a street object before resetting range. Disarms, environmental props, dodges, blocks and counters are all confirmed in official material.
02Can you disarm enemies in ANANTA?+
Yes — disarming is shown in official gameplay material and is a core part of the combat identity, alongside picking up urban props such as a golf club or a trash bin. What is not confirmed is the timing: exact disarm windows, frame data and damage values are all unreleased.
03Is ANANTA combat similar to Genshin or Zenless Zone Zero?+
The comparison breaks down on one point: ANANTA leans on the environment, not on elemental reactions or a fixed skill rotation. It shares character switching with both games, but its stated identity is disarming enemies and weaponizing street objects inside an open city — a different decision problem from element pairing.
