Today, Ubisoft announced Hyper Scape Season 3: Shadow Rising is available on PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X | S. In Season 3, Hyper Scape introduces exclusive content including a revamped map, a new hack, new story elements, a new 100-tier Battle Pass, and new customization items.
NEO ARCADIA 2.0 MAP
A significantly updated Neo Arcadia 2.0 map will challenge newcomers jumping in for the first time, as well as veteran players looking to push the pace.

FIREWALL HACK

SEASON 3 STORY: A SHADOW TEMPLE RISES IN HYPER SCAPE
Despite Prisma Dimensions’ assurances that everything is under control, strange anomalies continue to plague Neo Arcadia. The mysterious floating structures that appeared after the Blackout have coalesced into a temple that floats high above the city skyline. Basilisk is the first contender to find a way up to it.
Inside, Basilisk confronts a primal force of the Hyper Scape: Tower. Tower claims it (he?) has lost pieces of himself and charges Basilisk with recovering them in exchange for power and glory. Basilisk recruits a new face, the roguish hacker Huo Shu, to raid Prisma HQ for one of these Fragments. Meanwhile, Prisma’s own forces, under the cold hand of Nikita and his new enforcer, Bai Hu, prepare to eradicate these anomalies in any way they can.
Every week, players can collect new Memory Shards to dive deeper into Season 3’s story and lore. Additionally, Basilisk and Tower’s story will be featured in Issue 3 of the Hyper Scape Comics, released in chapters during Season 3.
