Hyper Scape Season 2 is now live
Hyper Scape Season 2 kicks off today. The new season is called The Aftermath.
Season 2 introduces a new weapon, a new hack, new game modes, a new Battle Pass, and more. Prior to Season 2, players had the chance to participate in Project Tower, a special event.
Those are just some of the new features soon available in Season 2 with more to come throughout the new season. The free-to-play battle royale game just launched this summer from Ubisoft.

New Content in Season Two
Players get the chance to discover a new district and try a new weapon, the Atrax. It bursts sticky explosives that detonate after a certain period of time. A new limited-time hack is coming mid-season, Platform, which allows players to deploy a horizontal platform useful for navigation.
Over the course of Season 2, players can try several brand new game modes, including Crown Rush Duo and Floor is Lava. The aforementioned Platform hack will be key for Floor is Lava since the ground is transformed into deadly magma. On top of those new modes, Season 2 will also see the return of the Crown Rush, Faction War, and Turbo Mode.
New Game Features
A ranking system is available in Season 2, giving players a way to see how they fare against other contenders. The rank is formed based on the ten best matches of each player – Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum, Diamond, or Champion. Only matches played in Crown Rush Squad will count for the rank.
As part of the rotating Limited-Timed Modes, Crown Rush Solo is available during the Season with a new twist, Second Chance. Second Chance gives players the opportunity to redeploy into the battle when they are eliminated early in the game.
Starting with Season 2, players get a daily gift every day they play Hyper Scape. The daily gift can include different items, such as Battle Points or cosmetics. A new 100-Tier free and premium Battle Pass also launches, including brand new exclusive Champion outfits, weapon skins, deployment pods, and more.
New Comic
Hyper Scape and Dark Horse Comics published the second issue of the Hyper Scape comic, The First Principle Part 2. It is the second issue in a free digital series made up of twelve ten-page comics to be released monthly. It is available now on the Hyper Scape website as well Dark Horse Digital, Comixology, and other digital comics websites.
My Take
Hyper Scape launched this summer without much fanfare. While the game has proven to be a decent battle royale entry, it feels pretty run-of-the-mill. Hopefully Season 2 will help the game distinguish itself in a crowded market.
