Riot Games Cancels Hytale After Decade of Development

Riot Games has shut down Hypixel Studios and ended development of Hytale, citing the inability to meet its ambitious goals despite efforts and a major engine reboot. The decision was made as the project no longer aligned with the evolving vision and industry standards, though Riot provided severance and support to affected staff. Fans are disappointed as the game showed promise with its unique blend of mechanics and visuals.
