MilitAnt Launches Today
July 12, in the year of our Lord 2016 -
Created by Xibalba Studios for the PlayStation®4 and PC
(Steam™), MilitAnt is a fast twitch side-scrolling blastacular
action platformer that launched worldwide today on Steam. Its
PlayStation®4 version hits the US today while the European
invasion is set for July 14. The PlayStation®3 and
PlayStation®Vita launches will be announced at a later date and
will support Cross-Buy and Cross-Save with PS4.
“We are proud to launch MilitAnt on PS4 and PC. MilitAnt is the
type of shooter armed with nostalgia and advancing difficulty.
It should feel both familiar and completely exotic at the same
time. Most importantly, MilitAnt brings the fun back into
side-scrolling shooters, which has been sorely missed recently,”
said Ricardo Villarreal, CEO, Xibalba Studios.
In MilitAnt, you play as an Ant. Deep underground, the Ants
guard Crystalite which is the most precious resource. It is the
chief fuel behind most modern Insect technology, from day-to-day
tools to advanced weaponry. Fair trade among the many kingdoms
has brought about long years of peace and prosperity, but there
grows tension over the resource with some factions wanting to
control it. The more envious factions have been gaining
influence. War looms on the horizon.
MilitAnt opens with a sudden invasion. Termites have overrun the
Ants’ colony! All seems lost. And yet, one brave Ant warrior
(you) rises to the challenge. From the familiar depths of the
colony’s mines, you must venture into the strange world above.
When not soaring through the sky or visiting the Beetles’
mysterious realm, you’ll find yourself escaping from the jungle
or being stalked in a bleak wasteland: each stage of the journey
is beautiful yet dangerous, exotic and unique. Massive bosses
stand in your way, each with an amazing battle theme composed by
Gerard K. Marino.
In MilitAnt, players can gather quite an arsenal, from
flamethrowers and sentry guns to electric beam rifles and more!
And as an Ant, the warrior can carry weapons in all four hands.
Preparation is key: only by unlocking and equipping the best
combinations in each situation can he win victory and save the
colony.
