I really didn’t care about it at all until this. This grand story of hope and community coming together to save what they love made me emotionally invested

Hytale was announced, worked on, bought by riot, sat in limbo for years, suddenly hyped, suddenly failed, and was re bought by the original developer before we got Half-Life 3

Also check out Vintage Story! The main dev for that is a former Hytale dev (and former Minecraft modder). When all the Hytale shenanigans first went down this year he put out an offer for Hytale devs to join.

I hope Hytale succeeds. Mojang have gotten complacent. Some competition in that space is good.

Honestly, even with an actual good dev team and a resurrected community behind it... Im not sure if it was worth the wait. Like, at all. And also the last time we heard of the project it was still barely functional, it will be several years still before we get a playable version

I really hope hytale comes to console. This would be something I'd love to share with my family.

Holy crap, I didn’t even know riot owned it but even if riot were still making Hytale I’m so glad they aren’t anymore because riot client is an ASS to uninstall because of vanguard 😭

Realistically this means absolutely nothing. We dont know how negotiations are gonna go and epic could just as well end up refusing Still, fingers crossed

Hytale and GTA VI have been fighting for the most anticipated game that's seemingly never coming out for a long while now.

I remember being excited for this game when it was announced 10 years ago. I literally don't care anymore, if it gets canceled, oh well. I'm not going to play it when it comes out, I honestly thought it was canceled 8 years ago

I dont think you guys realize thats not a fucking GOOD thing, RIOT is a really awful company, not to mention the sheer amount of predatory practices their own games have, the rushed employees, the lack of any actual game knowledge, Everytime they release a League character they designate what role they are, to date almost all of their fucking characters have either 1: Not been used in that role, 2: Released broken and buggy, or 3: Are extremely over or undertuned. Riot does not know how to make fucking video games, and the fact that theyre Hytales last hope is actually depressing as fuck, I hope the entire dev team maintains their Autonomy and Riot keeps their disgusting grubby hands out of it.

If you've been following along with the Hytale situation, we just for this tweet from Simon. This likely mean his deal was accepted and now the terms just need to be drawn up. Hytale lives!
