Following the patch note 0.3 of the Hyper Scape open beta, a new extension for the Combat Pass progression is now available: Twitch Crowncast.
Viewers on Twitch will now be able to gain combat pass experience by simply watching their favorite streamers play Hyper Scape. If you are watching game streams where the Crowncast extension has been activated and you have linked your Uplay account to your Twitch account, you can claim points at the end of the match. The longer you watch and interact with the game, the more points you earn, which will allow you to unlock new items when you return to the game.
A cap on the maximum number of points you can earn for the combat pass by watching Twitch has been put in place to prevent players from overusing this expansion. This ceiling is liable to change if concerns arise.
Important note to players on consoles : The Open Beta is only available on PC, but you can also take advantage of this feature to unlock items from the Open Beta combat pass. They will be available on your account when you launch the console game when it comes out, thanks to the cross-progression system.
