Brawl Busters - Review

Rock Hippo Productions’ latest free-to-play title is primed and ready for action. Brawl Busters is a multiplayer online action game that mixes class-based combat with simple and intuitive controls, creating a game that everyone can have a ball (or in this case, a brawl.)

Brawl Busters - CB Impressions

Rock Hippo Productions teamed up with Weezor and SkeinGlobe to release a wacky online game like no other. Brawl Busters is multiplayer online beat ‘em up title that’s focused on class-based teamwork and simple, but chaotic action. You can play as one of five different character classes and wreak havoc with some buddies across colorful urban arenas. Now I know some of you may be thinking: “Isn’t this just another Team Fortress 2 ripoff?” and you can STOP RIGHT THERE because it is in fact NOT a TF2 clone! Granted, it looks similar to TF2 in terms of visual aesthetic, but the gameplay here is pretty original. Anyway, I’ve been pretty excited about this one and I got some hands on time during closed and pre-closed beta. OnRPG has been handing out 2000+ beta keys since closed beta started, but for those that weren’t so fortune to grab one, here’s my overall experience and impressions!

Brawl Busters - Closed Beta Sneak Peek

Yesterday, I got to chat with the guys over at Rock Hippo Productions about their latest game, Brawl Busters, which is going into closed beta next Thursday, August 11th! Personally, I'm pretty damn excited about this one since I previously tried the game out when it was known as "Plan B". Back then, it was really in the fetal stages of development, but I had a ton of fun with it. But anyway: We talked about was pretty basic stuff: Closed beta will be open next week for anyone that gets granted the closed beta key. They keys haven't been distributed yet, but we should get them next Wednesday at the latest. Anyone that plays during closed beta will receive a special title called "Original Buster" and will follow your accounts all the way from open beta and into commercial launch.

Plan B officially annouced for US & EU as "Brawl Busters"

FINALLY. I've been waiting to play this little gem of beat 'em up for awhile, and it looks like it's coming soon enough.

RockHippo Productions (same publisher that's hosting MicroVolts) just sealed the deal with SkeinGlobe to release Brawl Busters for US & EU territories. According to SkeinGlobe, Plan B was merely their project/codename for their current title.

For those that do not know: Brawl Busters is a pretty strong example of "What if we turned Valve's Team Fortress 2 into a action game." You can play as five different character classes and battle it out in team based multiplayer, co-op and single player missions.

No other details major are currently available, but mailing list sign ups for closed beta have already begun.
