OAKLAND, Calif. –October 23, 2024–Today, Doborog announced Clone Drone in the Hyperdome, a brand-new VR experience that features unique combat and an action-based storyline where players fight to the death against killer robots. Players will be able to pick up their swords in Clone Drone in the Hyperdome on Meta Quest 2 and 3 and PC via Steam on December 12, 2024.

In Clone Drone in the Hyperdome, players sword fight against killer robots in an all-out VR tournament of death. Players take on the role of Blink, a teleporting robot who is the newest “looprunner” gladiator forced to compete in Crashloop, a deadly roguelike combat sport. Players die and reawaken in an endless loop, leap over lava pools, avoid turret fire and take down waves of enemy defendroids, as well as deal damage exactly where their cut lands using a stunning voxel combat engine. In order to win and feel freedom, players must battle their fellow looprunners for a chance to fight the Captain in the Hyperdome.

Key gameplay features that await players in Clone Drone in the Hyperdome include:

  • Combat Precision & Epic Voxel Destruction –The ability to cut robots with swords has never felt better! Players can slice robots arms, legs, and heads off with their sword precisely where they aimed, but they’ll need to be careful because their enemies can do the same to them.
  • Incredible Weapon Selection –Inside the Crashloop, players can choose from a wide variety of weapons, including broadswords, scythes, axes, and shields. Every looprunner mini-boss has their own unique weapon called a turbofist, which players can acquire by defeating them in duels or triple threat matches.
  • Combat Relationships –After a run in the Crashloop, players are sent back to the loading room, where they’ll confront the same looprunners they just battled. The player’s decisions of who they attacked and when will determine their relationships with the other looprunners.
  • Roguelike Tournament to the Death –The player is the newest looprunner in the Crashloop, a deadly combat arena that changes every run through. To win a run in Crashloop, the player must be the last survivor of the tournament, where they battle other looprunners to the death, so they can move on to fight The Captain in the Hyperdome.
  • All New Gameplay Experience, Fit for VR –The Clone Drone in the Hyperdome experience, building off the success of Doborog’s indie hit Clone Drone in the Danger Zone, brings robot fighting to VR with new content, characters, story and more. The game has been built from the ground up to push what it’s possible to do in VR forward, such as implementing physics based sword combat and interactions optimized for the best VR gameplay experience.

Clone Drone in the Hyperdome will be released on December 12, 2024, on Metaquest 2, 3 and PC via Steam for $19.99 USD. Join the community on Doborog’s social channels TikTok, Twitch, YouTube and X/Twitter, and visit the game’s official website and the Meta Store page to learn more.
