Everybody’s getting into the battle royale game these days, with most major publishers pushing their own example of the genre – Activision has Call of Duty: Warzone, EA has Apex Legends, ect. But what about Ubisoft? The giant French publisher puts out a lot of open worlds and shooters, but they still haven’t put the two together for their own battle royale game. Well, it seems that’s about to change, as according to a new rumor, Ubisoft is preparing to reveal a new free-to-play BR game, entitled Hyper Scape.
This rumor comes courtesy of esports insider Rod "Slasher" Breslau, who claims Hyper Scape will be officially teased today, and will enter open beta on July 12. This should be a pretty major project, as it’s being developed by Assassin’s Creed and Rainbow Six Siege developer Ubisoft Montreal.
