Hyper Light Breaker, the upcoming title from developer Heart Machine set in the Hyper Light Drifter universe, is launching in Early Access soon. Ahead of its release, a new trailer was aired providing a look at the game's world and gameplay elements:

​

For the very first time, players will be able explore the world of Hyper Light in 3D via single-player or online cooperative multiplayer. The game is currently in development from the same award-winning studio that created the critically-acclaimed Hyper Light Drifter, with the original creative director, Alx Preston, leading the charge.

Hyper Light Breaker is expected to launch in Steam Early Access soon.

Oh.. 3D?! I loved the 2D pixelart style of the first game. Now it looks like a poor Tears of the Kingdom copy.

I'm super hyped for this. I loved HLD. The trailer looks like it'll have a fun alpha period.

As for the blatant BotW inspiration, I'm happy about that. BotW was so revolutionary, it makes sense that everyone will want to emulate it. That just means the formula will get expanded upon and improved over time. Same as any other genre/mechanic/etc.

Looks more like low fidelity Risk of Rain 2 to me rather than BotW. When I first saw this game, it didn't really grab me and unfortunately this trailer also doesn't. The hover board movement looks cool though.
Will probably check it out with friends.

Looks like a creative studio hired Yoko Taro to make a modded TOTK with skateboards and bullet hell action.
Will take a look at it, if the price isn't too high on release.

I forgot about this! Loved HLD, I'll have to take a look into this one. Online coop? Dang.

feel like a hyper light drifter combine with risk of rain 2

Not a lot of games I look forward to but this is one I've been waiting to play. This looks like such an ambitious project from the Heart Machine team. Something I take for granted with indie games are how some of them don't hold a candle to ones made by much larger studios. But in the last couple years indie games have gotten absurd in how much polish they get by the studios that make them. It's refreshing knowing Hyper Light Breaker or Hades II is made from a team that loves their craft after witnessing the likes of Gollum get pumped out for $60.

Gonna be getting it full price so the devs get some bang for their work, just take your time and release it when it's ready

Meh, not making my gamer senses tingle.
