Developer Heart Machine has revealed Hyper Light Breaker – the studio’s co-operative rogue-lite spin in its acclaimed 2016 action-adventure Hyper Light Drifter – is now targeting a Steam early access launch sometime this “summer” following several delays.
Hyper Light Breaker was announced all the way back in March 2022 and was originally expected to launch into early access the following spring. However, it’s been hit with multiple delays since then, with its release first shifting to autumn 2023 before it was pushed back to a non-specific point in 2024 so Heart Machine could “bring the game to its full potential”.
But now, speaking to IGN, the studio has confirmed Hyper Light Breaker will launch on Steam this summer, where it’s expected to remain in early access for roughly a year.
