This acquisition will bring our collaborative efforts with Noxy and the Hypixel team even closer together, and we can't wait to see how their work continues to evolve."Ī life-long and avid gamer, William D'Angelo was first introduced to VGChartz in 2007. When we led the investment in the Hypixel Studios team two years ago, we saw a group deeply immersed in existing block games who believed that the genre could better serve its community. Head of Corporate and Business Development at Riot Games Brian Cho said, "Our investment criteria is ultimately pretty simple: we look for authentic game makers striving to improve player experience. As development kicks into high gear, we’ll benefit from Riot’s resources, expertise, and experience while maintaining the operational independence that has enabled our success so far." "Since our first meetings with Riot leadership long before their initial investment, we’ve found in Riot a partner with a similar commitment to empowering players. Newly appointed CEO of Hypixel Studios Aaron ‘Noxy’ Donaghey added, "We’ve been blown away by players’ response to Hytale, and Riot is the right partner to help us deliver a game that can live up to players’ expectations. We look forward to supporting Hypixel Studios’ journey through the development process, helping them grow, and learning from them as well." Now, as they prepare to enter the next chapter, we’re thrilled to take our partnership to the next level through this acquisition. "Over the last 18 months, we’ve been fortunate to advise Hypixel Studios as they build toward their vision for evolving a game genre that reaches an incredibly diverse range of players around the globe. "We’ve known the team behind Hypixel Studios for several years, and from the start they’ve been the kind of visionaries that we aspire to support a passionate studio committed to delivering a groundbreaking, genre-defining experience for players," said Dylan Jadeja, President of Riot Games.
The developer said Hytale has over 2.5 million sign-ups for the beta. Hypixel Studios thanks to being acquired will be given access to Riot Games’ experience in developing and publishing player-focused games.
