New Studio, Rebel Entertainment, Announces Development of First Real-time Multiplayer Social Game, Dungeon Rampage
BURBANK, Calif., June 28, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Recently established studio Rebel Entertainment, an operating business of IAC (NASDAQ: IACI), has developed its first game, Dungeon Rampage.
Channeling years of experience from talent previously at top videogame companies including Atari, Disney, EA and Zynga, Rebel Entertainment is drawing upon the unique backgrounds of its team to create this multiplayer action role-playing dungeon crawler game. More than two million players have already signed up for the beta version currently available on Facebook and have rated it as one of the top games on the platform with 4.4 stars out of 5. After a strong start, Dungeon Rampage will continue to expand with added content including new heroes, extended maps and an ever-growing arsenal of weapons.
Rebel Entertainment's first foray into the social gaming sphere lets players battle together in real-time, unlike most social games, in which friends typically interact asynchronously by sending feed posts or gifts to each other. Dungeon Rampage also seamlessly blends accessible, arcade-style action gameplay with a deep role-playing progression for a game that is easy to play, but challenging to master.
"Dungeon Rampage has introduced real-time multiplayer to the social gaming arena with fantastic early results," said Mike Goslin, general manager, Rebel Entertainment. "In the few months that we've been in beta, players of all ages and skill levels have rampaged together in dungeons more than 47 million times and slayed more than 1.3 billion monsters in the process, and we're just getting started."
Dungeon Rampage is a multiplayer action role-playing dungeon crawler gamefeaturing an array of six playable warriors, including the hammer-wielding Berserker, the unconventional Battle Chef, and the katana-slashing Ghost Samurai. Players can team up with friends in real-time to enter an evil tyrant's dungeon games, full of fierce monsters and deadly traps, where only the toughest, savviest teams survive.
Rebel Entertainment plans to release Dungeon Rampage across a range of gaming platforms as part of its portfolio of innovative social and web-based games currently in development at the studio. The game studio plans to expand its offerings in the near future to include additional titles for web, social, mobile and other platforms.
