CHIP ‘N CLAWZ VS. THE BRAINIOIDS AVAILABLE NOW ON PC, PS5, AND XBOX

Today, Arc Games and Snapshot Games are excited to announce Chip ‘n Clawz vs. The Brainioids, a chaos-filled action-strategy game from the creator of X-COM Julian Gollop. The title is available now on PC (Steam and Epic Games Store), PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S for £24.99. In celebration of the launch, from today until September 2, Chip ‘n Clawz is 10% off across all platforms.

Combining real-time strategy with action-packed combat, Chip ‘n Clawz invites players to outthink and outfight an invasion of silly brain-in-jar enemies across a vibrant world inspired by Saturday-morning cartoons and old-school comic books.

Chip ‘n Clawz vs. the Brainioids can be played solo or with a friend—online, in split-screen couch co-op, or PvP. Players collect precious Brainium crystals, build bases, and lead armies into battle. The third-person action puts the heroes right in the center of battle, allowing the players to show off their combat skills and upgrade their arsenals, while issuing their armies commands. The game’s blend of action and strategy ensures an equal playing field for both tactical masterminds and newcomers alike.

This multiplayer-friendly adventure also has a Friend’s Pass available now on PC, PlayStation 5, and Series X|S, that allow players to enjoy online co-op and PvP multiplayer for free with a friend who owns the game. More details on Friend’s Pass can be found here.
