The Best Android Gacha Games

Let the games begin!

Genshin Impact

Arguably the most popular gacha game currently, Genshin Impact boasts a massive and devoted fanbase for good reason. Many gacha games could learn a thing or two from its gameplay. It's incredibly rare to find a gacha with a truly open world, and Genshin Impact executes this flawlessly.

Arknights

Arknights is a well-established and enduring gacha game. Unlike many that fade over time, Arknights continues to thrive, with a loyal and growing fanbase. Stunning character designs set against a futuristic post-apocalyptic backdrop create an immersive world. Engage in strategic tactical combat or lose yourself in the captivating storyline.

Honkai Impact 3rd

Despite being one of MiHoYo's older titles, Honkai Impact 3rd remains vibrant and engaging. This sci-fi RPG offers a wealth of content and stunning visuals, rivaling its newer counterparts. It's surprisingly free-to-play friendly, allowing you to enjoy a significant portion of the content without spending a dime. Regular events keep the gameplay fresh.

Eversoul

Manage your town, build relationships with your collected characters, and engage in thrilling combat. Each character boasts unique abilities showcased with gorgeous animations. Even the storyline shines, with fully voiced cutscenes—a rarity in many gacha games!

Marvel Strike Force

While initial skepticism surrounded another mobile Marvel game, Marvel Strike Force proved to be a standout gacha RPG. The visuals are breathtaking, bringing your favorite superheroes to life with stunning fidelity. Best of all, you can play and enjoy the full experience completely free of charge.

Dragon Ball Z Dokkan Battle

Dragon Ball Z fans, this one's for you! Even if you're unfamiliar, Dragon Ball Z Dokkan Battle offers addictive puzzle gameplay, brilliant 2D art, and a fresh storyline featuring beloved characters from the franchise.

Goddess of Victory: Nikke

Nikke quickly gained immense popularity upon release. Beyond its aesthetic appeal, it offers engaging combat with impressive battle effects in a beautiful sci-fi-inspired world. Recruit a diverse roster of characters to build your ultimate team.

Honkai: Star Rail

MiHoYo's latest offering (until Zenless Zone Zero), Honkai: Star Rail is another visually stunning gacha with high-quality free content. The battle system provides a satisfying, fast-paced twist on traditional RPG combat, and the character designs are exceptional. If galactic space train adventures sound appealing, this is a must-try.

Limbus Company

Fans of Lobotomy Corporation and Library of Ruina, or those who prefer darker, more unusual settings, will appreciate Limbus Company. Created by Project Moon, it plunges you into a familiar world with complex mechanics to master while unraveling the mysteries surrounding you and your team.

Tower of Fantasy

Perfect World's answer to high-budget gacha ARPGs like Genshin Impact, Tower of Fantasy offers a sci-fi-themed open world and the opportunity to explore with friends. While it has some minor drawbacks, its free-to-play nature makes it a low-risk, high-reward option.

Reverse: 1999

If you're looking for something beyond the typical gacha experience, Reverse: 1999 is worth exploring. This time-traveling game blends an intriguing story, excellent character design, and satisfying gameplay that's easy to learn but difficult to master.

Punishing: Gray Raven

Another visually stunning, action-focused gacha that consistently delivers high-quality content.

Wuthering Waves

This beautiful open-world ARPG had some initial launch issues, and the story might not immediately captivate, but its impressive visuals, art direction, and challenging combat make it a worthwhile experience.
