The 2D MOBA is a genre that hasn’t been explored too much outside of the excellent Awesomenauts and Nexon’s newest title, Hyper Universe, looks to jump feet first into the fray. Bringing an esoteric selection of characters from a variety of disparate areas of pop culture, from Gundam-esque robots to soldiers and demons it looks to bring a unique spin to the popular genre.
Recently entering Early Access, Nexon’s entry in the increasingly crowded MOBA market makes a solid first impression, the game’s presentation is lively and polished. A fun intro cinematic let’s you know not to take the game too seriously and the voicework sounds great. The interface, art and animation are also of a really high standard. This isn’t a cheap looking production at all.
The game currently features a roster of 28 characters, called Hypers, which fit into classes that will be mostly familiar to existing MOBA players. Tanks that can withstand a beating like the tentacled pirate Admiral W or the holy defender Valter sit alongside melee damage dealers Sun Wukong, the Monkey King and Zet the Gundam-esque robot. Whether you enjoy playing support, ranged damage or melee there is a character here to scratch your itch.
