Self-explanatory action game Shoot Many Robots is branching out. Developer Demiurge Studios has announced Shoot Many Robots: Arena Kings, a brand new free-to-play title for PC. Arena Kings is a competitive 2D shooter, casting players as kings that "murder each other to collect their crowns, and flush them down a teleporting golden toilet."

Players will be able to customize their characters with the same kinds of gear found in the original Shoot Many Robots, and more is on the way. While the official release date is still under wraps, interested players can sign up for the closed beta here. Check out a pair of screens – sans any robots that we can see – in the gallery below.
