Hytale's Chapter 1 update adds a new boss and dungeon, with a $15,000 challenge
Hytale's Chapter 1 update is set to launch on October 12, introducing the game's first handcrafted dungeon and a new boss. The update will also expand goblin enemy variety, add a new world event called the Goblin Breach, and include new tech items such as a hookshot launcher and rocket boots.
Rock Paper Shotgun describes the boss as a flamethrowing gob-king, while Retro Gamer refers to it as the 'Gobliterator'. Retro Gamer also reports that Simon Collins-Laflamme, founder of Hypixel Studios, is offering a $15,000 reward to the first streamer who defeats the boss on hard mode, hardcore, no armor, no potions, and no glitches. Collins-Laflamme has been distributing game keys to interested players.
