Publisher Arc Games and Phoenix Point developer Snapshot Games have announced Chip ‘n Clawz vs. The Brainioids, a new action strategy game that blends third-person action with real-time strategy gameplay. It will launch for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, and PC via Steam and Epic Games Store this spring with full cross-play support.
“At Snapshot Games, we recognize how much players really enjoy challenging real time strategy games but from our experience, we know that some players like a strategy game that’s easier to pick up and play, that’s a bit more action-packed and that’s fun to play with friends,” said Snapshot Games CEO Julian Gollop in a press release. “With Chip ‘n Clawz vs. The Brainioids, we set out to create a dynamic and accessible action real-time strategy experience that players can dive into together. We can’t wait for players to jump into the action, meet the game’s unique characters and enjoy the heroic adventures that await—starting with the demo in just a couple of days!”
A demo will be available for PC via Steam from February 24 to March 3 as part of Steam Next Fest: February 2025 Edition. It features online and local campaign cooperative and player-versus-player multiplayer support, four Mission levels, two Challenge levels, two player-versus-player maps, and various weapons, mods, collectibles, and base building options.
