BIG, Bad and Custom


CUSTOM BUILT YOUR WAY
Customize your anthrobots & exosuits with a vast array of armor. Build them big and beefy or light and nimble; it's your style! And of course, no brand is complete without customizable paint jobs, logos, and programmed battle taunts!
DRONES AND ABILITIES
Once you've built your dream battle rig, finish it off by adding the perfect companion drone. They’ll provide data recording, scan analysis, and resource extraction. They also offer specific skills to use during combat. Armor repair, energy shields, advanced tracking, recon, and even stealth, pick one that's right for you!
PLAYER BOUNTIES
You're not just fighting for bragging rights. Bounties are the heart and soul of Insula: Bounty Royale. Each opponent has a bounty on their head. Putting them in the ground means creds in your pocket and upgrades! Upgrade your base, bot, & your lifestyle! Be mindful of your notoriety, though. The more you take, the more you're worth, and the more others will want to add you to their trophy list!
GOING VERTICAL
Our arena designs are unique, they span massive spaces with just as much verticality as horizontal space. But don't fret, every combatant has their very own fully customizable flight rig! Combat is designed with fast-paced, acrobatic aerial maneuvering in mind!
Private Islands
Private customizable and upgradable base that provides story advancement and lore discovery through seamlessly integrated discoveries and achievements during the multiplayer arena matches, as well as a way to display your hard-earned achievements as part of the base decor

BEAUTIFUL BUT DEADLY

The floating island of Insula is both beautiful and extremely deadly. The various biomes that make up the islands' ecosystem are home to all manner of frightful beasts. These creatures may be territorial, short tempered, or flat out hungry... some just kill for sport.

The environment itself also poses it's own array of threats. There are no shortages of danger here on Insula. Happy trails settler!

Then there's the pyramid. No one knows what it is, or where it came from. But when that thing appeared... the whole place went to hell.

Lead Character Design

Ad is a curious creature, he enjoys creating non-existing things, some say he lives in a world of his own because he has a crazy imagination, others say he was born in the wrong dimension where robots, creatures and aliens aren’t as common so he’s slowly but surely trying to change that by bringing to life his creations at least in the game development world.
