Shroud Issues Blunt Statement on Hytale

Work on Hytale started way back in 2015, but it wasn’t officially announced until 2018 with a popular trailer that gained over 60 million views and sparked a lot of online discussion. Hypixel Studios continued developing the game for several years, and in 2020, they were acquired by Riot Games, the creators of League of Legends. Unfortunately, things took a turn last year when Riot unexpectedly canceled Hytale and stopped development. The studio explained that the game was simply too ambitious in scope, and Riot worried it might never be completed.
