Hypixel Studios just dropped a for the upcoming adventure Hytale, which features over 15 minutes of footage. This comes just a day after the company brought the game back to life by . In other words, this new footage is quite the flex.
It’s worth noting that this isn’t a AAA-style trailer. It’s barely edited live footage from the game that was “recorded in a single morning and put together” by Hypixel co-founder Simon Collins-Laflamme. The developer says there are no “bells and whistles” included with this footage, as it features “just the game as it is.” The description goes on to call the video “raw and broken, but still beautiful.”
Hypixel says that this footage uses the original legacy engine which dates back to 2018. It’s also running on a four-year-old build. Collins-Laflamme wrote that it was important to “release raw footage today so we can break the curse once and for all.”
As for that curse, Hytale after nearly a decade of development. Just a few months later, the company managed to purchase the rights and get the game back on track. It also rehired around 30 staffers. The developer says “there’s a long road ahead, but early access is coming soon.” We don’t have a date on that early access build, but we sure do like the word “soon.”
For the uninitiated, Hytale is a fun-looking adventure game that looks like an open world take on Minecraft. Today’s footage highlights some of the game’s action and RPG mechanics, with a harrowing look at nighttime gameplay.
