Sims-Like Paralives Release Delayed At Last Minute To 2026

We are truly sorry for the last-minute announcement. After thoughtful consideration, we feel it's best for the game and the community. This year, we ran many playtests with friends and fans, and we were confident that we could improve the game enough in time for December. In the lead-up to Early Access release, we broadened our playtests with a more varied playerbase, and the latest feedback we received made us realise the game isn't up to the standard we wanted it to meet for release.

As we wrap up our work on Hyper Light Breaker, we've had to make the difficult decision to part with a number of talented team members.
