Engage in satisfying real-time tactics packed in 5-minute battles with Killbot General

Battle solo or co-op in a hilariously unpredictable, dynamic campaign where strategy meets irreverence

Montreal, Canada, November 13th, 2024 - In the future, the killbots will rise. To prepare for this inevitable cataclysm, the two-person studio at Universe Workshop, in partnership with Signal Space Lab, have revealed that they've been developing the real-time tactics game Killbot General so we can simulate the impending robot warfare we know we're all headed for. In preparation, three trailers have been unveiled: Botscaping, Origin Story and Deep Dive trailer. We may not be able to defeat the killbots - their reign is inevitable - but we can sure as hell join them!

Coming to Steam in 2025, Killbot General offers satisfying real-time tactics packed into 5-minute battles. In a world where Killbots are split in factions fighting for dominance, you are your faction's greatest general. Lead your fully-customized faction through a procedurally-generated dynamic campaign set in the wild, irreverent universe of the killbots. You'll have to make split-second decisions on which troops to deploy, where and when to use artillery, which hills and valleys are worth going for. Make sure you're accounting for topography, terrain and weather, as these elements could turn the tide of battle. The name of the game is strategy, not micromanagement or fast-clicking. Do you have what it takes to lead your battalion to glory?

Deploy solo or bring up to two friends in online co-op. You can even play through the story mode together, where each player will have to make decisions that alter how the narrative unfolds, ensuring that every playthrough can take wildly unexpected turns. 


Customize everything; from a faction's name, motto and leader, to the cause it's fighting for. Players can even customize unit names or use their own PNG images to create completely personalized flags. With multiple unit types and upgrade paths, Killbot General lets you create the unstoppable army of sentient toasters of your dreams!

"With Killbot General we wanted to focus on the satisfaction of making impactful tactical decisions, without requiring quick reflexes or micromanagement," said Francois Bertrand, game director at Universe Workshop. "Also, we aimed to get right to the good stuff, without all the lengthy buildup or tedious cleanup. Think of it like blitz chess; you'll have to think fast, but you won't need to click fast."
