HullBreach Uncloaked is an intriguing Wii U eShop title in a couple of respects — it's based on a Wii-browser MMORPG called HullBreach Online, and its developer (HullBreach Studios) has bold plans for the scope that it'll offer. It'll have all 576 sectors of its online predecessor, except with fully-realised 3D visuals and expanded gameplay including combat — the studio's lead developer Daniel Gump told us in an interview that the studio hopes it "will give reason to go back to the console day after day".
It's not low on ambition, in that case, and in recent weeks the studio has been gradually releasing screens of ships, and most recently a 10 second clip showing a burst to warp speed. The studio's Randy Freer has now given us an early link to a full video that shows over a minute of direct feed footage of the game in action. Its self-explanatory title is "The Locations of HullBreach", and gives a glimpse of familiar and unfamiliar planets included in the game's universe.
Check it out below and let us know what you think.

Looks like decent environments but I did not play the first so I have no idea if there will be lots of ships, etc.
I'm intrigued.
I'm extremely curious, but I Hope there are gonna be big space battles, Star Wars and not just flying around doing nothing lol
I want this. Actually I'd prefer more exploration-based approach and calm atmosphere. I don't know a single thing about the original so I'm clueless for that matter
I got a Space Rogue/Frontier Elite2 vibe, so will keep a close eye on this.
if its anything like frontier then there may be issues.....I have lost years of my life to that game. Will be keeping an eye on this
Based on this footage alone it doesn't look like a game I'd want to play. I hope they flesh out some gameplay, and improve the visuals
@Mommar They started dev in January this year and I think that the game won't be out till fall/winter , so there is still a lot of time to improve those things.
Pretty sure that the ship is not complete yet, they were just showing off the backgrounds and worlds.
A Wii Browser Based MMORPG with ships and space exploration, and I haven't heard of it? This looks like it could be awesome but... wth is Neptune? I know Pluto isn't a planet anymore but surely Neptune...
edit Ohhhh. I do remember looking into Hullbreach Online a few years back, it was far too confusing for me to enjoy then. Maybe I'll give Uncloaked a try once I see more gameplay.
