'World War Toons' (ALL) Open Beta Will Launch With PlayStation VR - Screens & Trailer

World War Toons is a free to play cartoony class-based shooter, where players duke it out for supremacy as either the courageous Allies or the indomitable Axis.

The Axis and Allies are pitted against each other in this cartoony multiplayer first-person shooter. Battle atop airships, under bridges, and inside windmills fighting as one of our unique and comedic classes. From the lightning quick Officer to the silent but deadly Sniper, every player will be able to make a mark in their quest to be the best. And if the enemies have you pinned down in a corner, don’t fret because with the press of a button you’ll be able to transform into a tank and turn the tide of battle.

If you’re looking to add a bit of punch to your domination, why not mow down your enemies on a rideable rocket? Boom with delight as each enemy you hit gets pinned to the front. After that, drench yourself in radioactive waste and zip around the map damaging anyone around you. Want to make a memorable entrance? We’ve got a huge red bomb named Grinnade that chases your enemies down to give them a nice, big, explosive hug.


World War Toons will launch in open beta when PlayStation VR releases on October 13th, 2016.

“We’re big fans of the work Sony has done with PlayStation VR," states Reload Studios CEO James Chung. "From day one of our studio, we knew Sony would be an important partner in VR gaming because of their history of handling hardware, software, as well as the content platform business. So when we were focusing on what platform to release on first, PSVR was a perfect fit.”

The World War Toons dev team also unveiled a first look at their fourth level, entitled Pyramid Scheme.

In this capture-the-flag type match, players will face off in ancient Egypt ruins, but with a bit of World War Toons flavor seasoned in. Instead of crossing the road for a bland old flag, you’ll flock to capture the free-range Ra Chicken and race back to your base in this first-to-three match. However, you won’t be able to just wing it and score a point. Blistering lasers, rising lava pits, and scorching fireballs will turn up the heat as you and your team fly to your coop. Oh, and don’t forget about the swinging blades. If they skewer you, they’re certain to put you in a fowl mood. Chicken pun.

Community Manager William Lewis says, “We’re so excited to be giving players a look at Pyramid Scheme. It perfectly encapsulates the colorful, wacky style we’re looking to bring to gamers.” Artists and designers on the World War Toons team have previously worked for such companies as Disney, Marvel, and Dreamworks.

If you weren’t able to nab a PlayStation VR pre-order, don’t worry — you can still join the fight in our non-VR version absolutely free.
