After being in development for over 10 years, Hytale, a sandbox game from the Hypixel Studios team with support from Riot, has officially been cancelled. Hypixel Studios’ CEO, Noxy, announced the cancellation on X on June 23, with the official Hytale forums following suit.

The same issue with all the Stardew Valley killers, even if they try not to.
It’s a super toxic category constantly being compared.
