Hyper Light Drifter Special Edition Now on Android, Years After iOS Release

The indie gem, Hyper Light Drifter, is back with a vengeance, now hitting Android screens as Hyper Light Drifter Special Edition. Originally captivating iOS players in 2019, this 2D action-adventure RPG crafted by Heart Machine is now ready to enthrall Android users on Google Play.

Ever Played It Before?

In Hyper Light Drifter Special Edition, you embody the Drifter—a tech-savvy explorer navigating a vibrant yet perilous world brimming with lost technologies and arcane secrets. As you delve deeper, you'll find your character is also grappling with a mysterious ailment, intertwining a personal quest for survival and a cure with your epic journey of exploration and combat.

The savage land of Hyper Light Drifter echoes with the remnants of a dark past, steeped in treasure and bloodshed. It's an epic adventure filled with danger, discovery, and the kind of narrative that lingers long after you've put down the controller.

The gameplay in Hyper Light Drifter is both challenging and gratifying. Your arsenal, featuring an energy sword that gains charge with each successful strike, requires precision and tactical thinking. The game's 16-bit graphics are a visual treat, with landscapes ranging from golden deserts and hot-pink forests to crystalline mountains, all bursting with vibrant colors.

The Special Edition of Hyper Light Drifter ups the ante with up to 60 fps, a new Tower Climb mode, and the addition of the Crystal Shot and Blade Caster Sword. You can also unlock a new outfit, earn Google Play Achievements, and enjoy gamepad support for those who prefer traditional controls over touch.

Is This Your Type?

With its hand-animated characters and environments, an evocative soundtrack, and a world rich in secrets and branching paths, Hyper Light Drifter Special Edition promises a compelling adventure. Since its initial release on Steam in March 2016, it has been turning heads and winning hearts. Don't miss the chance to explore this premium title now available on the Google Play Store.
