What is HoYoFEST 2025?
HoYoFEST is HoYoverse’s biggest Southeast Asian fan festival, and this year marks its 5th anniversary! Unlike your typical gaming expo, this event is all about the community—showcasing fan art, live performances, and interactive game booths where you can dive into the worlds of your favorite HoYoverse titles.
After last year’s massive success, 2025 is stepping it up with bigger venues, more activities, and even official fan-made merch—a first for HoYoverse in the region!
