This new FPS game apparently promises a battle royale experience in a futuristic setting. Hyper Scape is also going into closed beta to begin with (very soon) with a full release on PC happening on 12 July. 

Though it's coming to PC first, there's also the possibility of an appearance on console, with crossplay later this year as well. 

The official site is a bit sparse in terms of info at the moment, but does give us some clues as to the setting:

"Prisma Dimensions is thrilled to bring you the first iteration of the Hyper Scape on July 2nd - and with it, the pulse-pounding action of Crown Rush! Get ready to drop into the neon-drenched streets of the world’s premiere virtual city, Neo Arcadia. You'll want to hit the ground running, as you’ll need every advantage you can find to give yourself a leg up on the competition. Only the best contenders will make it to the final showdown. Will you claim victory, or fall to the perils of the Hyper Scape?"

Breslau also reports that Hyper Scape is being built with Twitch streamers in mind, with integration with Twitch chat that'll let viewers directly impact what's happening in the game.

There are incentives for Twitch streamers too, as they'll also earn revenue for bit purchases that happen during the stream. This should keep things interesting for all involved.
