‘Shoot Many Robots’ Revealed in New Trailer from Demiurge Studios

Studio Shells Out an Explosive Look at the Game for the First Time

Cambridge, MA – February 17th, 2011 - Demiurge Studios, one of the largest and longest-running independent development studios in the Boston area, has revealed the first in-game trailer for its upcoming project, Shoot Many Robots, which is slated for a downloadable release in 2011. The title is the first wholly original and independently owned project from the studio, which has been working on multiple blockbuster projects for nearly a decade.

“After nine years of working on truly awesome IPs with our favorite developers and publishers, we’re thrilled to be stepping out of the shadows with an original property of our own,” said Albert Reed, co-founder and studio director at Demiurge Studios. “Shoot Many Robots is the dream game we’ve always wanted to make: a 4-player co-op action-RPG with tons of loot and great innovation on beloved run-and-gun game play. Our team created a vibrant, unique style for the game that’s beautifully rendered by Demiurge’s new game engine. Building a 'Robot Murder Simulator' has been a blast for us, and we can't wait to get it into gamers' hands.”

Launching this year, Shoot Many Robots will deliver an onslaught of innovative cross-genre action that will have multiple players working together to fight through an intense and chaotic robot uprising.

Demiurge Studios stands as one of the largest independent game developers in the Boston area, diligently continuing to work with several top-tier partners on multiple unannounced titles, as well as on its own franchises. The studio’s credits include some of the most well-known titles within the industry, working with such stalwarts as Bioware, Epic Games, Gearbox Software and Harmonix by lending its expertise in AAA franchises like Borderlands, Brothers in Arms, Mass Effect and Rock Band.
