DI:E was a super fun project with a small hardcore following that is still, to this day, asking for a revival. The game was named Dead Island: Epidemic and was released in open-beta 2014. Moving forward, Deep Silver was the next publisher who wanted to work with us, this time creating a “ZOMBA”, an Action-MOBA with zombies, branded with what was at the time a very popular title: Dead Island. Shout out to all you BLC legends out there!

It did pretty well for being our first title and slowly gained cult status within the community through the years. So here we are, Stunlock Studios… and with the help of Funcom stepping in as our first publisher, Bloodline Champions aka BLC was released back in 2011. The Stunlock classic: Bloodline Champions.

They made a decision to build a game studio together to continue to work on Bloodline Champions. That game was Bloodline Champions ! It was later showcased at Dreamhack and to the student’s surprise, brought the most visitors of any game for three days straight.Īfter winning the Game of the Year 2009 at the Swedish Game Awards, these young students discovered a new found confidence. It was an adrenaline-fueled action arena game that took inspiration from WoW Arena but at the same time was its own unique little thing. The story of Battlerite started already 13 years ago, back in 2008 with thirteen students in the small town of Skövde, Sweden, making a game project together at the University. Finally, for everyone out there who ever dreamt of defeating a game dev, we can promise you plenty of Stunlockers online playing with you guys this Sunday! To celebrate you can also expect some rare mount giveaways on both the Battlerite Discord and V Rising Discord, which should help some of you make a dramatic entrance back onto the proving grounds. This is an excellent opportunity to invite your friends to the arena and show them what Battlerite is all about! For all newcomers having their first battlerite experience, starting on November 7th we will be giving out the All Champions Pack for Battlerite Arena FREE ( GET YOUR KEY HERE!) for a limited time. On November 7, this Sunday, we’re celebrating Battlerite’s 4 year anniversary and would like to invite you all to the arena for one massive smackdown.
