Tiny Royale™ is a top-down multiplayer shooter that
reinvents the battle royale experience for the Snapchat platform.
Tiny Royale™ lets players choose custom characters and squad
up with friends or battle solo for quick two-minute rounds to loot
and shoot their way to victory. Up to 30 players can battle at a
time, forming squads of up to four friends. As players progress
they can unlock characters and collect weapons and health packs
while the map shrinks during the match until only one player, or
team, remains.
“We are thrilled to be one of the first companies to launch a
gaming experience on Snapchat,” said Bernard Kim, President of
Publishing at Zynga. “Game developers rarely get the opportunity to
create an entirely new experience on an emerging platform so our
team was excited to remix the battle royale genre into a fast-paced
game designed to rock on Snap Games.”
“Snap Games is all about exploring new ways for friends to play
together and Tiny Royale™ is the perfect example of that,”
said Will Wu, Snap’s Head of Snap Games. “We jumped at the chance
to have a global leader in mobile games like Zynga develop for our
platform, and we can’t wait to see what our community thinks about
this new way to connect with each other.”
Snap Games is designed for synchronous mobile gameplay between
friends, and built on the powerful PlayCanvas game engine. The
platform, which launched in April, features a curated selection of
original and third-party titles. Starting today, Snapchatters will
be able to dive into Tiny Royale™ instantly from Snapchat’s
messaging feature, Chat. Players can also seamlessly communicate
with their friends through both text and voice-based Chat features
during game play, bringing live conversation—and way more fun—to
the Tiny Royale™ gaming experience on Snapchat.
Tiny Royale™ will also be launching a ranked matchmaking
feature this summer called Tiny Royale™ Leagues. The feature
will foster a more competitive environment for players by placing
them in groups of 100 people, broken out into 20 tiers. Players
will battle to climb tier ranks over limited time windows, earning
trophies and rewards based on their performance.
