Hypercharge: Unboxed

Hypercharge: Unboxed a cooperative first-person shooter, landed on the Switch eShop at the start of 2020. But rather than just releasing the game and calling it a day, developer Digital Cybercherries is committed to adding more content, features, and more. We previously shared the roadmap here.

Unfortunately, like many things this year, development of the roadmap is behind schedule due to the coronavirus. Digital Cybercherries recently provided a status update, stating that the team is “working hard to play catch up”.

The full statement reads:

Bravely Default is officially eight years old. The RPG originally launched for 3DS on October 11, 2012, though it wouldn’t reach the west until the west a year later. Square Enix celebrated the milestone today with art for the game.

Fans are currently waiting for the latest entry in the series, Bravely Default II. Although there hasn’t been a proper update in quite some time, Square Enix says that news is coming soon.

Bravely Default II was last said to be releasing in 2020. With less than three months remaining in the year, it’s unclear if that’s still the case.
