dtp entertainment and Ronimo Games are proud to announce Awesomenauts for Xbox Live Arcade and Playstation Network. From the developers behind the critically acclaimed side-scrolling RTS Swords & Soldiers, comes a new explosive Multiplayer Online Battle Arena (MOBA) game inspired by your favorite '80s animated series.

The game features the most awesome mercenaries in the galaxy in their fight for territorial supremacy. Awesomenauts brings Russian monkeys with jetpacks, giant robots, and lots of other mighty aliens to the two-dimensional console battlefield. Combining classic platforming-action with modern online multiplayer functionality, the action-packed gameplay offers everything the 16-bit generation and modern gamers love.

"We are thrilled to surprise the world with Awesomenauts at E3, and look forward to announcing further details then. If MOBA games and classic animated series were to have a baby, this would be it!", says Jasper Koning, co-founder of Ronimo Games. "They don't make 'em like this anymore!"

Awesomenauts will be shown for the first time at E3 from 7th to 9th of June.
