The much-anticipated follow-up to Hyper Light Drifter has a new early access date. At Day of the Devs, Heart Machine announced that Hyper Light Breaker will enter Steam early access on January 14.
The project is a co-op action game where you can play alone or with up to two allies to face down enemies and bosses in the colorful biomes of the Overgrowth. In classic roguelike fashion, players can try different builds, weapons and abilities on each run, and it should be interesting to see how those skills combine when multiple people are in battle. There is also, and this is very important, a hoverboard.
Hyper Light Breaker was first announced back in 2022 as a spiritual successor to the team’s original indie hit. Since then, there have been a couple of delays slowing the game’s arrival in early access, but today’s announcement seems like the real deal. The studio hasn’t shared any additional details yet about a full release date or additional platform support, but we’re excited to see this latest installment of the neon universe Heart Machine has created.
