Ubisoft just announced that they are shutting down their F2P battle royale game Hyper Scape on April 28. This means that the game lasted less than two years since its release.
Ubisoft made this announcement in a short blog post. They offered up the usual statement of saying that the decision to shut down development was a difficult one. They also thanked the few remaining fans of the game for their "passion and dedication."
We have made the difficult decision to end development of Hyper Scape and shut the game down as of April 28th. We set out to create a vertical, close-quarters, and fast-paced shooter experience and we are extremely grateful to our community for joining us on our journey. We will be taking key learnings from this game into future products.
To the Hyper Scape community, thank you for your passion and dedication to the world of Neo Arcadia both inside and outside of the game. Your devotion to the game we built will always be cherished.

Ubisoft may be rethinking their whole battle royale venture entirely after this shuts down. Their other battle royale game, Ghost Recon Frontline, has been delayed indefinitely.
