HYPEBRAWL TOURNAMENT WILL RELEASE IN EARLY 2019
We’ve been working hard on HyperBrawl Tournament to make it everything we, and you, want it to be; and your feedback has been invaluable in this process. However, this has meant that our ambitions for the game are bigger than ever, and we have taken the decision that to meet these goals we need to delay the launch of the game on Steam until early 2019. This means that the game will no longer enter Steam’s Early Access program.
BUT WHY?
We’ve made this choice because we want the official launch of the game to provide the best possible experience from the very moment you enter the HyperBrawl universe. In the last twelve months we’ve had amazing feedback from Beta tests, from the multitude of events we’ve attended, from influencers, journalists and esports organisations as well as platform partners. The majority of this was positive, from press accolades to ‘Best in Show’ awards, and we are now so driven to make HyperBrawl Tournament as brilliant as it can be.
WE NEED YOUR FEEDBACK
We would love to get your feedback on the game, and if you haven’t done already please head to the HyperBrawl Tournament website and get your hands on our closed Beta keys. PLUS, feel free to pass the invitation on to friends and family – https://www.hyperbrawl.com/
FAQ
Why have you decided NOT to launch into Early Access?
Our original Plan was to launch on Steam EA. We’ve done 12 events in 12 months, showcasing the game and built a great community of fans. After discussing the game at length with the community we wanted to give players the best possible game at launch. This meant we had to pursue a full launch initiative whereby we could guarantee users that there would be an active player base. We hope the followers of the project can sympathise with how difficult a decision like this was, and continue to support us in closed Betas and give us valuable feedback on social media.
Why has the game now got a 2019 release date?
We’ve had some amazing reactions to the game this year and our ambitions are bigger than ever. We want to make sure that we live up to those ambitions and build a game that we and the community are proud of. This means we need to invest more time and energy making this game the best it can be at launch; therefore we have moved our release date. We can’t be precise what this date will be, but we will do our best to give the community plenty of notice.
When will the game be released?
We have no exact date at present. We want to manage expectations and we’re confident that an early 2019 release window will be achievable. We will give the community as much notice as possible.
When can you try the game?
We still plan on having several closed beta tests leading up to launch. In any development process, testing and getting valuable community feedback is paramount. Recently we’ve been working hard on things like gameplay, including player vs player combat and weapon usage; amongst many other things. Art, UI and general game aesthetics are also being developed. We’ve also been busy designing new characters and arenas to ensure there’s plenty of content at launch.
