This time, you won’t be traveling alone through our range of lush though deadly landscapes. It felt right to come back in, root around, and share what we unearthed about this beautiful-yet-bleak world with everyone. The faded whisper of allure of this world we built transformed into a clarion call through the years. Why did we decide to return to that universe? It will share threads, aesthetics, lore and other recognizable elements, but will be a new game driven by new designs. It is set in the universe of Hyper Light and is its own story. Hyper Light Breaker is neither a sequel nor a prequel to Hyper Light Drifter. We hope to continue to inspire and amplify your work!Īs we approach Early Access for Breaker, we’d love to get you all more involved, so please send your thoughts, feedback and anything else you’d like to share with us! Speaking of Breaker… Our aim going forward will be to continually engage with our wonderful players through regular blog posts, content drops, streams, events, contests, and perhaps even some in-person affairs! As a team, we’re continually in awe of the creators who connect with our projects: the artists, students, musicians, developers, designers, writers, streamers, speedrunners, and more who make up our incredible and diverse community. We will also continue be a multi-project studio, so keep a look out for more new stuff from us in the not-too-distant future (*eyes dart around, looks over shoulder, gazes at the ground blushing and giggling*). We’ve decided, following the (we hope) exciting announcement of Hyper Light Breaker, to return to a more community-focused development process. In the end, we released a project we’re incredibly proud of, but the process deviated heavily from how we did things with Hyper Light Drifter, and ultimately, how we want to do things in the future. With Solar Ash we were trying something new working with a publisher for the first time, transitioning from 2D to 3D, and mostly working in a vacuum. More information about the development of the game can be found on its Steam page as well as a FAQ post on Reddit from the developers.This time around we didn’t wait such a long time to drop more info on a new game. While console versions are not currently in the pipeline, Heart Machine hopes to release Hyper Light Breaker on additional platforms down the line. The game will launch into Steam Early Access in Fall 2023, and can be wishlisted now. The gameplay trailer showcases developed melee and ranged combat systems, some form of terrain traversal and manipulation abilities, and possibly an i-frame mechanic all highlighted by bright explosions of color in contrast with the relaxed, deep tones of Hyper Light Drifter. Unlike the original, Hyper Light Breaker utilizes a third-person point of view, and incorporates multiplayer gameplay in a procedurally-generated world set in the Hyper Light Drifter universe. Hyper Light Breaker was first revealed early last year as the sequel to Heart Machine’s beautifully-heartbreaking Hyper Light Drifter title. Watch the Hyper Light Breaker gameplay trailer below:
