Do you have what it takes to be a special ops sniper? Hothead Games (www.hotheadgames.com), developers of the popular “Big Win” and “Rivals At War” mobile gaming franchises, announced today the launch of Kill Shot, a first person shooter game designed to put players’ marksman skills to the test.
Kill Shot is free to play and now available worldwide on the App Store for iPhone, iPad and iPod touch devices and on Google Play for all Android devices. To celebrate the launch, Hothead is offering a limited edition gold KA 74 weapon and power-ups bundle for the first 48 hours.
Kill Shot deploys players on military hitman missions to target enemy bases in strategic locations around the world. Several regions will be available at launch, ranging from a tropical jungle to a chemical weapons plant. New regions coming soon will include a busy commercial shipyard, desert enemy bases, and a secret air base.
With a variety of sniper rifles, heavy machine guns, shotguns and other customizable weapons at their disposal, players will have to remain cool under pressure to locate high-value targets, line them up in the crosshairs, and take them out with perfectly timed “kill shots.”
The game features intuitive targeting controls and immersive 3D graphics to offer an intense first person shooter experience that rivals console games in its production value and overall quality.
“With Kill Shot, we set out to create the most visually stunning and memorable game for fans of first person shooters,” said Vlad Ceraldi, directing producer of Kill Shot and a military veteran himself. “Kill Shot brings the best AAA shooter experience and heart-pumping excitement to the small screens of smartphones and tablet devices. Nothing exemplifies this better than the slow-mo, high-def footage of the bullet hitting the target, shown for each final ‘kill shot.’ This classic gaming moment still sends tingles up my spine every time.”
Kill Shot includes an array of unique and exciting features, such as:
•160 missions to complete: Initially spread across 3 regions, the increasingly difficult missions range from Primary and Support Missions to special Black Ops Missions in which players must eliminate the highest value targets on the government’s most wanted list. Daily Challenges and multi-player Global Ops events are also available.
•20 customizable weapons: 4 classes of weapons are available—Sniper Rifles, Assault Rifles, Shotguns and SAW Guns, each with multiple varieties that include varying levels of accuracy, clip size, damage capabilities, fire rates, thermal sighting and other factors.
•Social gameplay: An innovative “Watch and Share” feature allows gamers to replay their most recent activity and share it with friends via Facebook, Twitter, YouTube and other social channels, along with their own voice overlays.*
•Achievements Show off your shooting skills and win special power-ups by hunting down the 50 Google Play Services and Game Center achievements in the game; also compete to be top of the 3 different leaderboards.
•Killer power-ups: Whether to quickly find all enemies through a Spotter, slow down time with Slow-Mo, or pierce through protective gear with Armor-Piercing Bullets, powerful upgrades are available to give players an extra boost.
