UPDATE: A mysterious Prisma Dimensions website appeared, which seems to be the in-universe teaser for the upcoming game.
Dr. Ivy Tan, Prisma Dimensions CEO, is welcoming us to "the first iteration of the Hyper Scape on July 2nd," which probably means that the beta phase is starting in a few days.
Other stuff on the website is mostly cryptic and out of context, and it will be more understandable once we get to know the world of the game.
Original Story:
In a few weeks, French game developer and publisher Ubisoft will be hosting its first digital conference, called Ubisoft Forward.
There are several rumours what can we expect there, and amongst them are potentially new Prince of Persia and Rayman games.
But before that, it looks like Ubisoft will later today tease their newest AAA project, called Hyper Scape.

According to Slasher, a known leaker and industry insider, the game is code-named "Prisma Dimensions", and it will be "AAA multiplayer fast-paced FPS Battle Royale".
The developer who is allegedly working on this game is Ubisoft Montreal, the studio behind some of the biggest Ubisoft games and franchises, including Rainbow Six, Assassin's Creed, Far Cry, and more.

Reportedly, the game will be free-to-play, and it is in development for both PC and consoles, with full crossplay supported.
The console launch is planned for later this year, but what's really interesting is that the game is coming to beta next week and will be fully launched on 12th July, according to Slasher.
If that's true, Ubisoft is probably trying to emulate the blitzkrieg strategy as the one Electronic Arts did with the Apex Legends launch.

Furthermore, Slasher explains that the game is being developed with a big focus on streamers from the get-go and that a big part of it will be "a full partnership with Twitch with never seen levels of integration from a big game before."
He describes the setting of the game as "a futuristic virtual world", but for more information about the gameplay, lore, and everything else, we will have to wait for the official announced of the game.
