Here’s how you max out those upgrades to overcome any skill issues.

There is no word yet on whether we’ll be getting a console version of the game, though I suspect once Heart Machine settles on version 1.0 of Hyper Light Drifter, we’ll hear more about those plans.

Check out our early access review of Hyper Light Breaker where we state, “Hyper Light Breaker, despite being in Early Access, has demonstrated its outstanding qualities in full force, with a tightly designed gameplay loop and extremely satisfying combat. It manages to pull off a roguelite that’s genuinely fun in multiplayer, a randomized open world that feels full of life, and balanced upgrades that never feel too overpowered, all while keeping up beautiful aesthetics and non-visual storytelling.”
