Hyper Light Breaker Enters Early Access With Strong Foundation

Heart Machine's 3D action-roguelike launches on Steam, with plans for future updates and potential console ports tied to its success.

Hyper Light Breaker, the prequel to Hyper Light Drifter, is now available in Early Access on Steam, introducing a procedurally generated open world with co-op gameplay for up to three players.
The game combines roguelike mechanics with an emphasis on exploration, combat, and meta-progression, including character upgrades and unlockable content.
Developers Heart Machine plan to keep the game in Early Access for about a year, with updates expected to add more biomes, bosses, weapons, and playable characters.
A potential console port and cross-play functionality are under consideration, contingent on the game's performance and reception during the Early Access phase.
The game has been praised for its polished combat, vibrant art style, and dynamic soundtrack, though its long-term replayability and balance will be tested over time.
