The Best Android Gacha Games

Let's dive into the games!

Genshin Impact

Genshin Impact reigns supreme as arguably the most popular gacha game today. Its ever-growing fanbase is a testament to its quality. Many gacha games could learn from its innovative gameplay. It's a rarity to find a gacha with a fully realized open world, and Genshin Impact executes this brilliantly.

Arknights

Arknights is a well-established and enduring gacha title. Unlike many that fade over time, Arknights continues to thrive with a dedicated and expanding player base. Its stunning character designs, set in a futuristic post-apocalyptic world, are complemented by a compelling storyline and strategic tactical combat.

Honkai Impact 3rd

Despite being one of MiHoYo's older titles, Honkai Impact 3rd remains vibrant and engaging. This sci-fi RPG boasts a wealth of content, stunning visuals, and surprisingly generous free-to-play options. Regular events keep the experience fresh and rewarding.

Eversoul

Manage your town, bond with your collected characters, and engage in thrilling combat in Eversoul. Each character possesses unique abilities showcased with gorgeous animations. The well-developed storyline, complete with fully voiced cutscenes, sets it apart from many other gacha games.

Marvel Strike Force

Initially, another Marvel mobile game might not have seemed exciting. However, Marvel Strike Force proved to be a surprisingly exceptional gacha RPG. Its stunning visuals bring our favorite superheroes to life, and remarkably, it's entirely playable and enjoyable without spending a dime.

Dragon Ball Z Dokkan Battle

Dragon Ball Z fans, rejoice! Dragon Ball Z Dokkan Battle delivers addictive puzzle gameplay with vibrant 2D art, familiar faces from the franchise, and a captivating new storyline.

Goddess of Victory: Nikke

Nikke's popularity is undeniable, and while its fanservice is a key element, the game's overall quality shines through. Set in a beautiful sci-fi world, Nikke offers engaging combat with impressive battle effects and a diverse roster of characters to collect.

Honkai: Star Rail

MiHoYo's latest offering (until Zenless Zone Zero), Honkai: Star Rail, is another visually stunning gacha with high-quality free content. Its fast-paced battle system and excellent character designs make it a standout. If galactic space train adventures appeal to you, this is a must-try.

Limbus Company

For fans of Lobotomy Corporation and Library of Ruina, or those who appreciate darker, more unconventional settings, Limbus Company offers a unique experience. Created by Project Moon, it shares the same world and complex mechanics as its predecessors, immersing players in a mystery-filled narrative.

Tower of Fantasy

Perfect World's answer to high-budget gacha ARPGs like Genshin Impact. Despite its name, Tower of Fantasy boasts a sci-fi setting. This action MMO features a vast world to explore, either solo or with friends. While it has some minor drawbacks, its free-to-play nature makes it a low-risk adventure.

Reverse: 1999

If you're looking for something beyond the typical gacha experience, Reverse: 1999 is a compelling option. This time-traveling game combines an intriguing story, attractive character designs, and satisfying gameplay that's easy to learn but difficult to master.

Punishing: Gray Raven

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

Wuthering Waves

Visually stunning, this open-world ARPG had some initial challenges, but its impressive fidelity, art direction, and fun, challenging combat make it a worthwhile experience.
