VIVA NOBOTS Opens Public Alpha Test

Playtesters Wanted on Steam!

Stealth action enthusiasts, rejoice! VIVA NOBOTS is now open for public alpha testing on Steam. This exciting opportunity runs from April 24th to May 8th, 2025, concluding at 8:59 AM JST. To participate, simply visit the VIVA NOBOTS page on Steam and hit the "Request Access" button to secure your spot in the playtest.

SHUEISHA GAMES, the developer and publisher behind this innovative title, expressed their gratitude in a recent Steam news post: "We are incredibly thankful for your support. If you have the chance to play our prototype game, VIVA NOBOTS, we would be thrilled to receive your feedback. Your insights could help us move closer to an official release!"

Sneak, Steal, and Expose!

VIVA NOBOTS offers a unique multiplayer experience where players engage in 16-player matches, focusing on stealthily looting precious treasures while constantly on the lookout for rival players. Disguised as one of the many NPC excavation robots within ancient ruins, players assume the role of a NOBOT—an undercover treasure hunter. The objective is to amass as much treasure as possible to climb the wanted rankings, all while evading detection.

To succeed, players must blend seamlessly with the actual NPC bots, dig for treasure, and participate in a slots-like roulette mini-game. This not only yields loot but also buffs that enhance your treasure-hunting capabilities.

The game introduces a thrilling twist with the Doubt Gun, which players can use to expose rival NOBOTs attempting to escape with their haul. Successfully exposing an opponent not only eliminates them but also rewards the catcher with extra bounty and the exposed player's dropped treasure. However, caution is key—shooting a real NPC robot will lead to repercussions. With security bots patrolling the area, swift and stealthy movements are crucial to maintaining your cover.

Victory in VIVA NOBOTS can be achieved by either escaping the ruins with your treasure or by exposing three rivals to earn the right to perform a "Victory Lap," declaring you the ultimate NOBOT champion. Are you ready to outsmart and outsteal your way to the top?
