Hyper Scape: The Most Important News for the Beta

The open beta of Ubisoft's Hyper Scape is live. The battle royale competitor to Fortnite adds cyberpunk and abilities into the mix by taking players away to Neo Arcadia.

If Valorant is a mixture of Overwatch and CS:GO, Hyper Scape is a mixture of Fortnite and OW. Since Sunday (July 12), the open beta is playable and the battle royale mode is flourishing! Check out how to get the game and what features it offers.

New Modes

We can look forward to 4 game modes. The "normal" battle royale mode is called Crown Hunt. Here you can try to eliminate the others as a squad or get the crown on the map and save it for at least 45 seconds. The mode is also available as a solo crown hunt.

Additionally, the modes: Hack Runner and Turbo Mode Squad will soon be available. These two will be time-limited but unfortunately, there is no more detailed information yet, so stay tuned for further updates on those.

New Weapon & New Hack

In Hyper Scape you collect special abilities (hacks) and loot weapons. We've already gone through the list of weapons, but with the open beta came a new one - the Harpy. It is suitable for short to medium distances. Of course, you can also collect a new hack: the Shockwave. With a shockwave equipped you'll be able to push your enemies away. Fus Ro Dah!

Crowncast

For all those who like to watch streamers, advance in the Battle Pass, and gamble at the same time, now comes the ultimate feature. With the extension for Twitch you should be able to get 2 extra levels in Battle Pass levels while watching. The Battlepass is free for the beta and there is no premium pass. Furthermore, a streamer can also take you into his squad!
