The highly anticipated first chapter update for popular sandbox Hytale brings massive content to the game, led by a complex dungeon and its main guardian. The creators of the project have prepared a serious test for die-hard fans that can test the limits of every virtual traveler.
Studio chief Simon Collins-Laflamme announced a generous cash prize of $15,000 to the first content creator able to tackle the new threat in harsh conditions. The author of this idea set a strict limit: victory is calculated only in a single game on the maximum difficulty with permadeath mode activated. Daredevils, meanwhile, are prohibited from using protective gear, any potions, and third-party bugs; they can only use standard iron weapons in research mode.
The powerful three-phase enemy called the Godbliterator requires the user’s utmost concentration and perfect knowledge of the game’s mechanics. The normal version of this fight already forces you to think carefully about your tactics, while the hardcore version will be a difficult obstacle to overcome for most unprepared players.
