“To give players a chance to get the full Hyper Light experience, Heart Machine and Arc Games will be offering a Hyper Light Breaker Bundle available from January 14 (when HLB launches in Early Access) until January 28. *The bundle will be available for $29.99 and will give players a free digital Steam copy of Hyper Light Drifter for free if they don’t already own Hyper Light Drifter via Steam.”
“Those who purchase the bundle will be able to experience the beloved 2D action adventure RPG, Hyper Light Drifter, and explore the Hyper Light universe in a whole new way with the open world rogue-lite Hyper Light Breaker that takes place decades before the events of Drifter!” a press release from Arc Games states!

I know, I know, you only got a little taste of what the Breakers are capable of. Well, if you wanted more information, all you had to do was ask! You see, Arc Games had us covered on that front back in November! If you want to know all about how specific you can get when crafting a build based on how you want to play? Check this out! Each Breaker starts out wholly unique, of course. However, you have complete control over stats, abilities, and everything in between!
I fully expect Hyper Light Breaker to be an early 2025 standout. With a strong Early Access start? Who knows, we could be looking at the next major roguelike to take the gaming world by storm!
