Singularity Software, a division of Brightstar Entertainment Ltd, today announced a new genre in PC gaming; Due for release across Europe (excluding UK) in November 2002, RoboForge allows players to build robot gladiators on their PC and then enter them into online combat tournaments where they have the opportunity to win big prize money.
