First-person shooters (FPS) have seemingly overtaken the mobile games market. Not that it’s a problem; it’s a marvel to witness its massive growth. And no, we’re not talking about poorly designed, blatantly copied versions of Counter-Strike filled with microtransactions to make a quick buck.<\/span><\/p>\n

Instead, we’re talking about popular titles like Call of Duty: Mobile<\/a>, Critical Ops, and Apex Legends Mobile, which in many regards have massively impacted mobile games as a whole. Likewise, these games have inspired others to join the fray, too; case-in-point: Hyper Front.<\/span><\/p>\n

This article discusses Hyper Front, a five-versus-five FPS mobile game available for Android and iOS, which many regards as having a heavy resemblance to Valorant. In particular, we ask the question: Is Hyper Front more than just a blatant copy of Valorant Mobile<\/a>, or is it somewhat of an original concept worth your time?<\/span><\/p>\n

    To eliminate your enemies, you’ll need to purchase weapons and abilities before the round starts via the Purchase Menu. Among the weapons are pistols, assault rifles, LMGs, shotguns, SMGs, and sniper rifles. Each round, you’ll receive money to buy weapons depending on factors like winning, kills, etc.<\/span><\/p>\n

    Is Hyper Front A Valorant Clone Or An Original FPS Game?<\/span><\/h2>\n

    Nowadays, coming up with originality in games isn’t the most straightforward feat. In fact, many new games are inspired by previous works; as the constant trend of innovation continues, so does the game-volution chain. But what differentiates a game from being mildly inspired to a blatant code-for-code clone?<\/span><\/p>\n

    Well, that comes down to the number of uncanny resemblances and features a title holds compared to another. <\/span>Truthfully, Hyper Front is arguably a blatant copy of Riot Games’ Valorant<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

    From Hyper Front’s heroes to map and gameplay design, cosmetics, weapons, and even the HUD interface and multi-kill banners, one would easily spot the resemblances a mile away. For example, the heroes appear to be carbon copies of those from Valorant, only disguised in different forms. There’s a KAY\/O, Sova, and even a Sage clone that can summon frozen walls.<\/span><\/p>\n
