What a rollercoaster it's been for Hytale this year. When Riot Games pulled the plug on the project, it felt like we'd never get to play the ambitious sandbox game, which was born from an incredibly popular Minecraft server several years ago and was looking to take a slice of Mojang's pie. However, the original founder of Hypixel Studios, Simon Collins-Laflamme, recently swooped in to save the project and revive the studio he started. The aim now is to move rapidly, and get the game in players hands to build it alongside the community. In a post on X, Collins-Laflamme confirms that he'll be announcing the Hytale release date tomorrow, but has warned that fans should "reset expectations" of a super speedy launch.Read the full story on PCGamesN: The Hytale release date won't arrive before the holidays, but Minecraft's biggest rival still feels closer than ever
