4/10

“genuinely enjoy when a game can innovate meaningfully in this evermore cramped space. Hyper Scape brings a lot of concepts to the table that, in theory, I thought were interesting, but the execution… this ain’t it.”

“There’s plenty that’s familiar about Ubisoft’s belated entry into a bloated genre, but there’s plenty that’s quietly impressive too.”

7.3/10

“Hyper Scape is the epitome of an average submission to the battle-royale genre – a lukewarm outing that’s likely to be forgotten fast.”

But Why Tho?	Quinn Hiers	6 / 10	08-15-2020	There are a few elements that separate this battle royale from others but the battles tend to be repetitive, the weapons lackluster, and the map becomes stale quickly. Currently, with how Hyper Scape is structured, there’s little to keep me entertained.	Read review

GameCrate	Giancarlo Valdes	6.3 / 10	08-21-2020	Hyper Scape has promise, but it’s just so infuriating to play due to poor aiming controls. Some don’t seem to have a problem with it, as I see other PS4 players racking up kills all the time. Still, it’s better to wait and play something else until this gets fixed.	Read review
Gamefa	Mehdi Reazaei	7.5 / 10	08-23-2020	Hyper Scape is not a perfect Battle Royal, but it is a different and entertaining one. It can’t replace the best games of the genre and has issues like lack of variety in customization, but If you are looking for an enjoying online game with power- ups and nice shooting, Hyper Scape worth a try.

Gamerheadquarters	Jason Stettner	7.5 / 10	08-12-2020	Hyper Scale is an incredibly smooth, technical feat for the consoles that delivers a fast paced and exciting battle royale experience.	Read review
Gamersky	Unknown	7 / 10	08-27-2020	Comparing with other battle-royale games, Hyper Scape is really fast. But at the end of the day, it doesn’t unique and fun enough to impress me.	Read review
GameSpot	Jordan Ramée	6 / 10	08-20-2020	Hyper Scape has some great ideas for changing key features and mechanics in a battle royale game, but so far it doesn’t come together into something satisfying.	Read review
GamingBolt	Alec Benner	5 / 10	08-18-2020	Hyper Scape is a game that you’ll probably want to like, but only the most forgiving players will be able to overcome its contradictory design.	Read review
IGN Italy	Angelo Bianco	7.3 / 10	08-16-2020	The new Hyper Scape from Ubisoft is a decent battle royale that offers some good ideas, but has to deal with too many problems.	Read review
INDIANTVCZ	Adam Bárta	7 / 10	08-23-2020	Hyper Scape is a decent game that brings something new to the table. Unfortunately, it is flawed with lazy game design, bugs and below-average optimization. On the other hand, the game is still fun and therefore probably something that you should try out.	Read review
Oyungezer Online	Cevdet Emre Kızılcan	7.5 / 10	08-15-2020	Hyper Scape will please those who don’t like other battle royale games, because it targets a different audience than Apex Legends, Fortnite or PUBG.	Read review
PlayStation Universe	Tommy Holloway	6 / 10	08-19-2020	Whilst Hyper Scape has some interesting ideas that make for fun and thrilling gameplay scenarios, the game does very little to stand out amongst its competitors. Although it is lacking in personality and lore, future updates could allow Hyper Scape to carve out an identity of its own. However, currently, it will do little to pull you away from your preferred battle royale game, and if you’re not a fan of the genre, it won’t make you a believer.	Read review

SpazioGames	Marino Puntorieri	7.5 / 10	08-14-2020	Hyper Scape is a good battle royale with solid and substantial differences than competitors. The Ubisoft’s project has interesting gameplay and deserve a chance.	Read review
Wccftech	Dave Aubrey	6.8 / 10	08-14-2020	Hyper Scape is a polished and pretty battle royale, but it is also bland and generic from start to finish. In a market already saturated by free to play shooters to try, Hyper Scape should be an afterthought. It doesn’t have the confidence or the personality of its competitors, and it’s come onto the scene far too late. There’s a lot to like about Hyper Scape, but you probably won’t find yourself playing it for long.	Read review
