Ubi Kill the Hype

A game that would've been a good fit for N64 isn't going to make it

It's always bad news when a potential N64 game is stopped before it gets out of the starting gate. Ubi Soft's Hype The Time Quest is no more and will not be for the time being.

Hype was intended to be the closest thing to a Playmobil videogame out there. The plastic figures that battled viciously with stars from the Lego universe for the attention of many pre-high schoolers were going to be set in a 3D adventure complete with swords, shields and magic.

There have been no specific reasons for Hype being cancelled but we'll bring you more information as we get it.
