From Press Release:
Bratislava, Slovakia – June 12, 2026 – Independent Studio Collision Games and Publisher Blue Brain Games are proud to announce Expendabots, a frantic 4-player co-op horror extraction game, following its world premiere at the Future Games Show: Summer Showcase.
Expendabots drops players into ever-shifting islands filled with danger, mystery, and rewards. You and your friends must explore, scavenge, and survive. Run when you can, hide when you must, loot abandoned facilities, and extract with your squad before the island is lost – carrying whatever relics you can recover.
Each Expendabot carries a portable 3D printer, a lifeline in the field, capable of crafting everything from emergency power cells to decoys that lure enemies away.
Welcome to the Custody Zone
In an alternate universe, the Custody Zone is a forbidden archipelago sealed off from the rest of the world, filled with abandoned facilities, unstable machinery, and technology no one fully understands.
To recover what remains, corporation Nullshore Consortium deploys Expendabots, expendable robotic units built to scavenge, survive, and extract valuable relics from places too dangerous for anyone else.
But the Custody Zone is far from dead. Its machines still follow old orders, its facilities still defend their secrets, and each expedition brings Expendabots closer to whatever was left behind.
Key Features:
- 1-4 player extraction co-op for PC and Mac via Steam
- Unique handcrafted artstyle
- Proximity chat that can also be heard by enemy NPCs
- Expendabots carry portable 3D printers on their backs, enabling an in-game crafting system on the go
- 5 dungeon types, each with its own environment, puzzles and enemies
- Procedurally generated islands and dungeons, making every run completely unique
- Progression system built around robotic arms, unlocking new mechanics and abilities
- Lovable Expendabots that you can respawn by bringing their heart back to a big 3D printer
Players can wishlist Expendabots on Steam right now and join the community on Discord to take part in the ongoing conversation.
