Heart Machine plans a major update for Hyper Light Breaker on April 29, 2025. The "Buried Below" update adds Rondo, a new playable character with special abilities. Players will also find two new melee weapons, a crown called Maw, and fresh cave areas to explore.
The update completely changes how players progress through the game. You play with just one life per run. When you die, you lose your items and must restart the Overgrowth area. These changes make the game easier to start but harder to finish. Players will discover new ways to exit the Overgrowth section. The game changes character classes with a redesigned customization system and simplifies both vendors and inventory management.
A tutorial that teaches core game mechanics will benefit new players. This helps beginners learn essential skills needed for success. Even returning players might want to try the tutorial as a refresher. Heart Machine believes these improvements will help everyone enjoy the game more.
The company partnered with Wccftech to give away 20 free game keys. Fans can enter this giveaway starting May 7, 2025, after the update goes live. Anyone interested should follow both companies on social media for details about how to win.
