On a nevercea see: Ubisoft's failed shooter today closes close

Hyper Scape was Ubisoft's attempt to compete with other genre representatives. But this plan did not work, which is why Ubisoft is now pulling the plug. After less than two years, the failed Battle Royale shooter says goodbye.

Update from April 28th, 2022:

At the beginning of the year, Ubisoft announced the end of his multiplayer shooter. Now the day has come on which Hyper Scape closes its gates - forever. Because Ubisoft pulls the plug and thus ends all network functions of the shooter.

Ubisoft ended the support for the game last year. Accordingly, no new updates have been released for a long time.

Hyper Scape is one of over 90 games that Ubisoft has recently taken away from the network. For this, the company is working on new online games , as the recently announced Project Q.

original message from January 28, 2022:

a failed experiment

Ubisoft published the free-to-play shooter Hyper Scape in 2020 and hoped to be as successful with it as other Battle Royale giants. However, interest in the community flattened a short time after the release. After almost two years, it is therefore time to say goodbye.

It is already the second game that Ubisoft leaves left after such a short time. Finally, the end of the multiplayer support for Watch Dogs: Legion was announced.

Ubisoft writes in a blog post:

Activision Messed Up BIG TIME

"We made the difficult decision to end the development of Hyper Scape and to stop the game from April 28 . We have decided to create a vertical, quick shooter experience with a melee character, and we are very grateful to our community that she accompanied us on our trip. We will incorporate the most important findings from this game into future products. ”

They also thank the Hyper Scape Community for their passion and commitment to the world of Neo Arcadia, both within and outside of the game. "We will always appreciate your dedication to the game we developed." (Source: Ubisoft)

Why flop Hyper Scape?

Hyper Scape is a Battle Royale like Call of Duty: Warzone, Apex Legends or the currently still crumbly Battlefield 2042, but with a larger focus on vertical gameplay . In addition, a special feature of Ubisoft's free-to-play shooter is the strong integration of Twitch.
