Is Hypergryph Developing a Splatoon Rival? Players Worry About Expansion Plans

Recently, community members spotted a job posting allegedly linked to Hypergryph that mentions technical requirements reminiscent of Nintendo's 'Splatoon'. Since the studio's previously announced titles, 'Sterndrifter' and 'Arknights: Endfield', have yet to be released, this potential new project has sparked a heated debate.

Community reactions are mixed. Some analyze that the role might simply be for 3D modeling or collision detection for irregular surfaces, rather than a full-scale 'turf war' mechanic clone. However, the prevailing sentiment is one of concern: with two major games still in the oven, is Hypergryph spreading itself too thin—a phenomenon often referred to by local players as 'multi-project fatigue'—similar to other developers?

The comment section is filled with sarcasm and frustration. One player sighed, 'They should finish the previous projects first before starting new ones.' Others questioned the feasibility of replicating such specialized gameplay. There are even cynical jokes about whether this is a sign of previous projects being 'canned' (abruptly cancelled) or just regular hiring. Ultimately, users jokingly commented: 'A quality player should learn to paint their own cakes'—a sarcastic jab at the community's habit of hyping up unconfirmed rumors.
