“GTA Delay Doesn’t Change Anything”: Developer of Previously Canceled Hytale Says It Could Be Revived and Released Before GTA 6

When a fan tweeted that Hytale would definitely come out before GTA 6, Collins-Laflamme simply replied “yeah.” In follow-up comments he added, “we are still working on saving it, be patient bois.”

He later explained his timetable: “My only plan is to launch as soon as legally possible, so the delay for GTA doesn’t change anything to my plans.” In short, if the legal impasse with Riot can be resolved, Collins-Laflamme intends to release Hytale at the earliest opportunity — which could, conceivably, happen before GTA 6’s currently projected November 2026 launch.

Unless GTA 6 “comes out and it’s terrible” no open-world dev can hope to top Rockstar, original Saints Row design lead says – but “there’s nothing wrong with trying to be a #2”
