NetEase has revealed 'Beneath the Mist,' a new escape-type action adventure game for iOS and Android, developed by the Chengdu-based studio Zhizhu Gongzuoshi. The announcement trailer shows players exploring mist-covered areas with two companions, gathering ingredients and treasures while aiming to retreat before a toxic 'demon mist' engulfs the area.
Combat extends to other player teams, who can steal supplies. Monsters serve as both targets and ingredients: eating a hot pot made from a fire dragon lets players fly and breathe fire, while a thunder ox steak enables high-powered electric attacks. Cooking becomes a build element that, combined with different dishes and weapons among three players, creates a different fighting style each playthrough.
The first test is scheduled for August 17 to 23, 2026, on iOS and Android. Applications are open on the official website, but the test is limited to users in mainland China, with overseas release details still pending.
