The Story

Heart Machine create Fantasy ARPG games, with a vivid highly stylized art style. With a big focus on; narrative, sound design and endearing characters. Since Hyper Light Drifter, each game has been more ambitious than the last! With Solar ash (their first 3D and console-first game) being released in 2021. They are currently growing the team for the release of the latest in the Hyper Light series: Breaker. This game encapsulates everything that makes Drifter great and kicks it up a notch, with endless open worlds thanks to their foray into procedurally generated levels, and is the first of their games with multi-player capability!
