“As development kicks into high gear, we’ll benefit from Riot’s resources, expertise, and experience while maintaining the operational independence that has enabled our success so far. Hytale is currently in development for PC with a full-scale release planned for 2021. “We’ve been blown away by players’ response to Hytale, and Riot is the right partner to help us deliver a game that can live up to players’ expectations,” Hypixel’s CEO Aaron Donaghey stated. Currently, the trailer sits just shy of 56,000,000 views, a number which is sure to climb given the huge spotlight being shined on the company because of this acquisition. Hytale has received a great amount of attention since its announcement in mid-December of 2018. Hytale fosters community servers with a myriad of minigames, extensive modding, heavy customization, and even some dungeon elements. If you haven’t heard of Hypixel Studios, they’re the developers behind the upcoming title Hytale, an open-world survival game reminiscent of Minecraft with a heavier focus on combat and fantasy. Riot Games president Dylan Jadeja discusses this history, stating that they’ve “known the team behind Hypixel Studios for several years, and from the start they’ve been the kind of visionaries that we aspire to support.” Jadeja applauds the team’s commitment to delivering new and exciting experiences to players, as well as discussing how much of an honor it’s been to be their partners for the last 18 months. This acquisition is a culmination of a large amount of history between the two developers. The most viewed announcement thread on the Hypixel Forums is the official announcement of the PE server for Hypixel, with 1.58 million views, a measly 12 of the views the hytale trailer has gathered already, and the second most viewed thread doesn’t have anything going for it at all with just 6 of the Hytale Trailer views. Although the company is headquartered in DerryLondonderry, Northern Ireland, we operate a remote-first model and our team members contribute from all over the world. We look forward to supporting the team during their development process and beyond. The Hypixel Studios team is a mix of modders, indies and industry veterans committed to the goal of creating the world’s most empowered gaming communities. We’re excited to welcome Studios to Riot Games. “Founded in 2018 with support from an advisory group of angel investors, including Riot Games, Hypixel Studios is currently developing Hytale, a community-powered block game that combines the scope of a creative sandbox with the depth of a roleplaying game.” “Riot Games, the game developer and publisher best known for League of Legends, today completed its acquisition of Hypixel Studios,” Riot wrote via their website. The beta for Hytale already boasts 2.5 million signups, alongside 55+ million views on the Hytale trailer.
The League of Legends developers took to their blog earlier today to announce the completion of the acquisition of the Northern Ireland-based development studio. Riot Games has completed their acquisition of the development studio Hypixel Studios.
