AUTO WARRIORS Heading to iOS July 7

AUTO WARRIORS Heading to iOS July 7

Remember Car Wars? Back in the ‘80s, pedal-to-the-metal car combat was played with 6-sided dice around dining room tables — not liquid-cooled gaming PCs. But what if you could have both face-melting graphics AND tactical turn-based combat in a single game?

Introducing AUTO WARRIORS, coming soon to an iOS device near you!

Developed by Gunjin Games, a new mobile studio headed by Nick Baynes of Split/Second fame, Auto Warriors takes full advantage of the team’s AAA console experience to deliver hyper-detailed 3D models, real-time physics, stunning visual effects, and realistic environments at a scale never before seen on mobile. Content-wise, the game is launching with a massive 150-level single-player campaign AND full-featured 1v1 and Fleet PvP multiplayer modes — a love letter to car combat fans everywhere.

THE WORLD OF AUTO WARRIORS

Auto Warriors is set in an alternate 2016 — thirty years after a small-scale nuclear exchange triggered a cascade of social and environmental disasters that engulfed the planet. Society has returned to a feudal state controlled by despotic barons. Technology has largely remained in the mid-1980s with cars and weapons based on ‘80s designs. The world in 2016 is a dirty, dangerous ruin, almost entirely unrecognizable from the 1980s — let alone our own present day….

(Part 4 is due July 6th.)

The world’s most popular sport is the Auto Warrior tournament, a series of battles held in ramshackle arenas across the desolate plains — hosted by a self-entitled Baron that rules over the populace. The player is found by a passing Auto Warrior crew — left for dead in the aftermath of a horrific car crash. Through superior combat driving skills, the player survived the accident. It’s time for those skills to be put to the test once again in the Auto Warrior tournament!
