I was able to get a slot and play the technical test of this new battle royale called "HYPER SCAPE" by Ubisoft along with other streamers and creators. Sadly, my internet connection was so trash because I had to use a VPN for me to connect via USA servers since the game is not yet available in South East Asia. SO. THE. LAG. IS. REAL.
Thoughts? The game is fast-paced action! It's like playing Apex Legends with different mechanics. While Apex Legends has its own champions with unique set of skills, HYPER SCAPE lets you choose your own avatar. Skills can be found anywhere in the map, as you may change it along the way depends on which skills you prefer. (Wall, Heal, Teleport, etc.) You can only carry up to 2 skills that can be upgrade by getting the same function and fusing them to make it more useful or stronger. Same goes with upgrading weapons to survive with your teammates (3 players per team) on getting the CROWN and be the champ squad. And the closing ZONE? It's like Thanos snapped his fingers inside the matrix lol. On the other hand, viewers of HYPER SCAPE stream also has a HUGE ROLE when it comes to map events every round (I was amazed!!) so it's really something. As for the Devs, more game mechanics may subject to changes. Nonetheless, it's for us to find out.
Anyway, a close or open beta could begin shortly after the testing phase. Some say it will start on July 12 of this month, but we’ll just have to wait for more details from Ubisoft.
Final thoughts? The game is a cat and mouse shooting yet FUN, FAST, AND ADDICTING. I know. Another battle royale game. Even so, it's quite different from what we know. I'll just have to wait for the full release (SEA) to avoid LAGS and enjoy it while playing with the fam.
Stay safe everyone!
