## About This Game
Welcome to Insula
That was the tagline–humanities’ new hope. At least, until they all
disappeared, working with a mysterious organization known as Hǎidao (“HighDow”
海盗), you are tasked with exploring Insula and discovering what really happened
to all the poor souls that had called this home. To survive that, you will
need some serious tech and no small amount of credits.
You know of one way to get that out here. The Bounty Royale, a brutal,
mechanized bounty-hunting bloodsport that runs autonomously right here down on
the surface of Genesis. To get started, you’ll need to recover and repair one
of the light and agile combat exo-suits that were used early on by the
security forces on Insula. If you survive, you can use your winnings to start
amassing the tech you will need to build your own anthrobot, a fully
mechanized combat-ready battle chassis that you control from afar via neural
link.
One way or another, your only hope of making it home, relies on solving the
mystery of a now-dead Insula. All paths to that end, begin in the arena.
Battle Royale Reimagined
In Insula: Bounty Royale, you play as an Anthrotech, ex-military combat
engineers specially trained in building and maintaining the Drakonis Anthro
combat machines known as Anthrobots. Recently awoken from stasis and
apparently stranded on what used to be a thriving mining colony in the
atmosphere above Genesis, you must survive long enough to find out what
happened and find a way home.
Insula: Bounty Royale, is the first-ever arena shooter built atop some of the
more popular battle royale mechanics, to fully intertwine a compelling and
adrenaline-filled story with the competitive PvP arena gameplay. Your base is
where the story plays out, segments of solo gameplay will occur to advance
your story. Events in the multiplayer arena will feed directly into that story
and your character’s progression through it. While the solo story aspects are
optional, there is much to be gained by participating in that aspect of the
game.
The Arena
In the arena Insula further distinguishes itself. You can compete in person,
donning a fully combat ready exosuit, or from afar using one of the neural
link controlled Anthrobots. The arenas are highly vertical and utilizing fast
paced acrobatic flight capabilities, your tactical options are virtually
limitless as literally every inch of play space is traversable and usable to
your advantage.
Bounty Royale
The Bounty Royale is a unique twist on the battle royale game mode. When a new
match starts, each contestant has a bounty on their head. Outfitting yourself
with advanced technology, you must track and hunt down your opponents and
eliminate them to collect their bounties. With each opponent you eliminate,
your own bounty will increase, making you a more desirable target for everyone
else. The other hunters are not your only concern, however, nor are they your
only source of earning. There be beasties about in this place, and they be
hungry! Lucrum pays a hefty bounty for the extermination of these dangerous
creatures as well!
Be warned though, the commotion caused by the competition often draws
attention from larger hordes of creatures nearby. It is not unheard of for the
contestants to temporarily work together to survive long enough to finish
hunting each other.
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 custom 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!
Melee – Not A Last Resort
Customization and play style are essential; you can customize your combat just
as you customize your armor and drones. Lay waste to your opposition with
lightning-fast strikes from small dual wielded energy blades, wreak havoc with
the wide arcing swings of deadly polearms, or pound them into scrap with
devastating blows from massive rocket hammers.
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 creds in your pocket means
upgrades! Upgrade your base, kit out your bot, & enhance 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!
High-Octane Aerial Combat
You are not limited to just where you can reach on foot, each exosuit and
Anthrobot is outfitted with a customizable flight rig. Flight is fast,
intense, and acrobatic. High speed aerial maneuvers allow you to take full
advantage of the arena’s massive vertical play space. Play the ground game, or
take to the skies, this is dog-fighting at it’s best!
Private Island Bases
Each player has a private, customizable, and upgradable island base hovering
in the atmosphere above Genesis. Your base provides story advancement and lore
discovery through seamlessly integrated events and achievements during the
multiplayer arena matches. It also enables the crafting of options and
upgrades for your gear, not to mention, some pretty cool ways to display your
hard-earned achievements as part of the base decor!
