The description says it all really, "a free-to-play fast-paced urban battle royale first person shooter". Well, not everything as it leaves out Hyper Scape's futuristic 2054 setting where "100 Contenders descend upon the virtual city of Neo-Arcadia to engage in action-packed and fast-paced matches to be crowned champion".
Check it out.
Hyper Scape innovates and twists the battle royale formula in many ways, such as the unpredictable Decay which dissolves the map of Neo-Arcadia into different patterns, or the unique Echo mechanic that keeps players active in the battle even when they’re down. At the end of a Hyper Scape match, the climactic showdown phase starts when the Hyper Scape crown spawns on the map. Players have two different ways to claim victory, either by picking up and carrying the crown for 45 seconds or by being the last player or squad standing.
Hyper Scape introduces Hacks, abilities that players can loot in the world the same way they do weapons. Hacks grant offensive and defensive capabilities to suit all playstyles. Laying down a mine, seeking an enemy, protecting the squad with a big wall or turning invisible to sneak up on opponents are just a few examples of the Hacks players can combine and swap effortlessly. All Hacks and weapons can be upgraded through the Fusion mechanic to produce more powerful iterations of the pre-existing item.
The Open Beta is available now - which you can register for and download here. The beta includes 'Crown Rush Solo' which is the main 100-person Battle-Royale mode, in addition to limited time modes Hack Runner Squad and Turbo Mode Squad. Designed with streaming in mind Hyper Scape's Crowncast Twitch extension will let players progress their Battle Pass by simply watching live streams. And through Twitch streamers will be able to recruit new members into their squad via Twitch chat.
Ubisoft also notes that during the Open Beta period that all progress and items unlocked or earned will carry over into the full release - where Season One of Hyper Scape is set to launch across PC, Xbox One, and PlayStation 4 in the coming months.
