'Hyper Light Breaker' is the 3D follow-up to an indie classic

Great indie games don't always get sequels, but it seems that one stunner of yesteryear is finally getting the new entry that we've been waiting for. Developer Heart Machine has unveiled Hyper Light Breaker, which is set in the same universe as Hyper Light Drifter, a top-down action game that was one of the best of 2016. There's a catch, though: it's 3D this time.

While it's tempting to call Hyper Light Breaker a sequel, it seems that Heart Machine views it as more of an unlabeled successor, at least right now. The game's Steam description calls it an "action roguelite adventure from the creators of Hyper Light Drifter," also noting that it's set in "a new land in the world of Hyper Light" called the Overgrowth.
