I hope they can make it work, but honestly I don't see how. The two games share very little similarities outside of being blocky survival games, and even then the focus on their respective genres are completely different. With VS being a gritty realistic survival game with very few fantasy elements at all, and Hytale being a fantasy RPG with some survival elements.
It'd be like Project Zomboid coming out and saying they're going to work on a fantasy gamemode where instead of zombies and guns, you have goblins and dragons and magic and shit. Sure, why not, but at this point you have to change so much about your game's identity that you're going to end up making a completely different game inside of your game rather than just a separate gamemode.

I’m their blog post they said if it works out, they will probably use their engine to make another separate game
