'Wild Buster: Heroes of Titan' Alpha Access For Indiegogo Backers - Screens

by Rainier on Oct. 2, 2017 @ 1:30 p.m. PDT

Wild Buster: Heroes of Titan is a sci-fi hack'n slash MMORPG that boasts MOBA-style Skill and Hero Systems rounded out by a variety of PvP modes and raid dungeons for up to 15 players.

Wild Buster is a Sci-Fi Action MMORPG with a heavy focus on a range of PvP mechanics. By joining either the human Guardians or the mutant Abandon factions, players will be able to choose from more than 12 characters, all with a varied spectrum of skills for unique play styles, that allow players to adopt a variety of roles more commonly found in MOBAs rather than in MMORPG environments. While facing a mutual enemy, Guardian and Abandon fighter will inevitably square off against each other for resources, in guild battles, when participating in the Squad League, or by intercepting each other during epic dungeon raids. 

Set in a war-torn solar system, players chose one of more than a dozen heroes from two rival factions, Guardians or Abandon, in order to take on the common threat of the Brokken, an aggressive cyborg race bent on dooming the few remaining humans to the same bleak half-man-half-machine fate. The heroes of both factions differ in both background and abilities, and call for distinctly different playstyles. The Guardians, a military organisation who rely on strict discipline and training, will most likely team up to attack in an organised role-based squad. Alternatively, the Abandon, a motley crew of unbound mutants, make the perfect lone wolves and are experts in utilizing weapons and gadgets to survive even in the harshest environments. Each hero has a distinct set of unique abilities such as a sniper rifle or a strong combat pet which make strategic team composition paramount to mastering the game. Nevertheless, both factions allow for extensive group play, especially with the guild system for which guild battles between factions and unique headquarters (Wild Buster’s take on guild halls) are under development. 


Planet Titan needs immediate help to fend off the evil cyborgs, and publisher Insel Games is sending in their most elite group of players to the rescue.

Starting today, backers of the Indiegogo campaign will get instant access to the Alpha Test of Wild Buster: Heroes of Titan. For a whole week, they’ll get to defend the planet, try out the 14 unique heroes belonging to either the Guardians or Abandon factions, group up for co-op gameplay to explore the world of Wild Buster: Heroes of Titan and raid Dungeons, all while slashing through hordes of “The Broken”.

The invaluable feedback of the community will be used to improve mechanics and in-game features, help test out the server structure and identify bugs. Backers of the “Chosen Few Perk” and above had a head start, starting last Friday and helped the developers with the first server stress test. 

Combining Sci-Fi MMORPG and Hack’n’Slash with extensive PvP options and MOBA elements, Wild Buster already enjoys great popularity in South Korea. Independent Publisher InselGames is now bringing the game to the western market and will fund the adaptation of game mechanics as well as the English and German localisation with an IndieGoGo campaign. Backers have a variety of different perks to choose from, like T-Shirts, special in-game items, access to the Alpha Test or even a meet and greet with the developers.

Key Features:

  • Full MMORPG with Hack'n'Slash combat
  • MOBA-style character and skill system: Different skill combinations with two powerful ‘ultimate skills’ to choose from for each hero and the possibility to upgrade and customize skills with items
  • 12+ selectable heroes (24 planned) that employ distinctly different play styles and unique abilities
  • Two factions: The Guardians, a military organisation tasked with the mission to protect all humans, who rely on strict discipline and training to do so and the Abandon, an alliance of unbound wild mutants. They are less organized, but experts in utilizing weapons and gadgets to survive even in harsh environments.
  • Highly diverse dungeons: three different difficulties, Raid dungeons for up to 15 players, defend dungeons with wave-based combat and competitive shared dungeons for four groups of players at once
  • Squad League: league for high level characters (level 50) offering 5vs5 pvp matches for honor and glory
