What is The Machines Arena?
A 4v4 hero shooter in the alpha stage of development, focused on short, explosive matches, social teamplay, and frantic combat. Competitors will choose from 6 heroes spread across 3 distinct roles: Tank, Support and Assault. So, whether soaking up damage in close combat with a Tank like Pyro, delivering AOE healing whilst slipping in long range skill shots with a support like Tesla, or putting lead down range and dropping orbital strikes in assault with Zulu – teams will have to coordinate flawlessly and make every second count to win.

Ten Square Games starts technical release for Medal Hunter ahead of global launch
Ten Square Games has begun a phased rollout for Medal Hunter, a new mobile PvP shooter for iOS and Android. The title entered technical release on 4 May, with global availability planned around the turn of May and June, subject to further improvements.
The initial rollout covers Mexico, Vietnam, the Philippines and Poland. Ten Square Games said this stage is focused on verifying technical KPIs and performance stability, while the team fine-tunes gameplay parameters.
Around mid-May, Medal Hunter is expected to move into a broader soft launch, with gradual availability in Australia, Germany, the United Kingdom and the United States. The company said the focus will then shift to validating short-term retention and engagement.
Medal Hunter is set in combat environments inspired by different historical periods, with architecture and weapons “strongly influenced” by real references but stylized for mobile play. At launch, the game includes five locations, and players compete in short PvP rounds by eliminating moving targets including aircraft and naval units, using two different shooting models.
CEO Andrzej Ilczuk said the project builds on Ten Square Games’ development approach used for Trophy Hunter: “Medal Hunter is an example of how we are putting our growth strategy into practice. Trophy Hunter helped us build a new development model based on clear benchmarks, early validation and a better understanding of the signals that matter before scaling a product. Medal Hunter capitalizes on that experience and on the broader product knowledge we have built across our portfolio. By using proven gameplay mechanics and working in this model, we were able to bring a new title to market in less than a year from the start of development. This gives us earlier insight into a game’s potential, helps limit development risk and allows us to shape products more closely around what players actually respond to”.

Bet on Games launches horror-themed crash title Zombie Rush
Bet on Games, the instant and crash games vertical within the Betcore ecosystem, has launched a new horror-themed crash game called Zombie Rush. The title is now available for global integration via Betcore’s single API, alongside content from TVBET and ElCasino.
Zombie Rush wraps the crash mechanic in a graveyard “survival run” theme. Players decide when to cash out as the multiplier rises, with the round ending when the “crash” triggers.
Bet on Games said the game runs on an “Optimized Math Model” with 97.5% RTP and a “dynamically accelerating multiplier curve.” The release also highlights “Visceral Horror Aesthetics,” linking the crash moment to a “grisly, memorable animation.”
On the feature set, Zombie Rush includes Autoplay and Auto Cash-out. It also adds “Strategic Dual-Betting,” which allows play across two parallel rounds simultaneously.
Betcore is directing partnership and integration inquiries to [email protected]. A gameplay video is available here.
