Miksi Early Access?

We wanted to share an update with our community.
Hyper Light Breaker will not be receiving further development for the time being.
We’re incredibly grateful for the passion and support you’ve shown since Early Access.
Please stay tuned to our official channels and Steam page for any future updates.

Miten kauan peli tulee arviolta olemaan Early Access -vaiheessa?

Please see the above response. Hyper Light Breaker will not be receiving further development for the time being. For now we do not have a definitive date as to when it will release from Early Access.

Millä tavoin lopullinen versio tulee eroamaan Early Access -versiosta?

In the final version of the game, we plan to have multiple player-character skins (we have a small number in a fair state for Early Access launch currently) with all of their loadouts and weapons complete and vetted, a full complement of upgrades and Mods for runs, NPCs with full breadth of animations, the OST completely fleshed out for all levels, performance passes done in order to meet better minimum requirements, and game balance across our systems addressed based on community feedback. Last but certainly not least: the full story and narrative will be available to discover. However, Hyper Light Breaker will not be receiving further development for the time being.

Mikä on Early Access -version tila tällä hetkellä?

Currently we have our core pillars/gameplay loops fully functional, extremely solid + fun combat and traversal (hoverboards, woo!) with several different player skins, functional online multiplayer with up to 3 players, a procedural world generated for each run, a clear story and a wide variety of weapons and character upgrades that drop on runs. As of now, Hyper Light Breaker will not be receiving further development for the time being.

We are taking the remaining time heading into our Early Access release to further flesh out and polish an array of enemies, minibosses and bosses, refine our combat loops, and set up a clear start to the story for players.

Muuttuuko pelin hinta Early Access -vaiheen jälkeen?

We do plan to raise the price once Early Access ends, and while nothing is definitive, it’s possible that the price will go up at some point during Early Access. Please note as stated above, Hyper Light Breaker will not be receiving further development for the time being.

Miten yhteisö otetaan mukaan kehitysprosessiin?

We plan to post monthly devblog updates on our Steam page, be highly active in the forums and Discord, post regular content drops for gifs, videos, reveals of characters, behind the scenes developer content, livestreams and more.

It is VITAL that we communicate with our audience and build that trust in our process. Getting people directly involved, knowing that their feedback they submit in forums or otherwise has an impact on the shape the game takes as it progresses is incredibly valuable to us. The possibilities in this format are wild.

We successfully built an audience before our first game release (Hyper Light Drifter) by regularly engaging with the community on many of these same fronts, building out a connection to many people who loved the concept, and plan to do so again for this new title. Please see above responses, Hyper Light Breaker will not be receiving further development for the time being.
