"Hytale" was cut by a fist! Stardew Valley producers are considering investing in taking over

Jun 30 2025

  "Hytale" was produced by a group of well-known MOD developers of "Minecraft" and was officially unveiled at the end of 2018. However, earlier this week, Riot suddenly announced the cancellation of Hytale development and gradually disbanding the new studio.

Many players expressed regret for this news, and even thousands of players have initiated petitions, hoping that Riot would resume production of "Hytale". At the same time, Concerned Ape, the producer of Stardew Valley, also posted a post to express his interest in "Hytale" and initially considered taking over the development work.

It is understood that in a conversation with the well-known content creator Myne, ConcernedApe said that although he was interested in the project, he still needed to know more details, especially "the specific planning of the studio" and "the root cause of the project failure".

In addition, Hypixel Studios founder Simon recently issued a statement saying that he is considering investing US$25 million to repurchase "Hytale"'s IP and related assets in order to "rebirth" the project. However, Simon also admitted that this will face huge challenges and is still carefully considering the feasibility of this plan.
