MicroVolts has been announced and is now entering 2nd phase closed beta on January 28, 2011.

The game is a multiplayer online shooter in which players take on the role of various toys in giant environments ranging from a giant chess board to a playground, as you’d expect being a miniature toy.

You can sign up for a closed beta key for the “Free-for-All” tournament on February 5th at the official MicroVolts web-site.

MicroVolts features fast paced, third person shooter action and pits players against each other in a secret battle that has been waged and going unnoticed right in our own backyard for years. No one knows for sure when or where the first toy declared war but rumor has it that the uprising began with four original limited edition figures, code named MicroVolts.

Battle lines were drawn when Naomi, Knox, Pandora, and C.H.I.P.-the prototypes -were soon joined by an endless number of modified versions. Now, toy figures around the world are engaged in an all-out war for valuable battery resources and supremacy of the Micro World. All we can do now is stay out of their way and wait for a champion to be declared!

“The MicroVolts community flourished during the fall of 2010 and we are excited to kick off the new year with a special beta and great events,” said Howard He, President of Rock Hippo Productions.

“The MicroVolts fans have helped shape and mold the game as it gets ready for launch and now we are asking them to join us in this final closed beta as we get closer to that special day.”

Here is a new trailer for the game.

  • Unlimited Costumization
