Soon there will be another game in the style of the famous sandbox on the market.
Hytale has become a long-term construction project, the launch of which has been postponed for many years. This summer, the developers announced the closure of the project, as well as the Hypixel Studios studio.
However, the story of the game in the spirit of Minecraft did not end there. In November, the co-founder of the project, Simon Collins-Laflamme, got in touch and announced the deal — it was possible to acquire the rights to Hytale from Riot Games, and work will continue.
Over the past few weeks, we have brought back more than 30 developers to the team who know [Hytale] in detail. Others will join us in the coming days. We are returning to the original vision.
