Hyper Scape, Ubisoft’s 2020 entry into the battle royale scene that was discontinued a couple of years after launch, is the focus of a community revival effort. A group of fans and hobbyist developers are working to make the game playable again. Their progress looks promising in places, but there are still significant obstacles to a full return.

  • Background: Hyper Scape launched in 2020 as Ubisoft’s fast-paced take on last-player-standing shooters and was eventually closed down after only a short run, leaving the title dormant.
  • Who’s behind it: A grassroots band of players and coders has taken on the project, combining technical know-how with enthusiasm to try to restore playable components of the game.
  • Current status: The effort has achieved some functional milestones, but it remains a work in progress — getting everything stable and accessible to the wider community is not guaranteed.
  • Challenges ahead: The team faces technical complexity and other uncertainties that could delay or derail the revival, so any comeback is far from certain at this stage.
