AUSTIN, Texas - February 25, 2015 - Spacetime Studios, a Texas-based independent mobile game developer and publisher, has revealed Call of Champions, a real-time competitive multiplayer online battle arena (MOBA) game for mobile devices. Incorporating traditional MOBA features, Call of Champions introduces new streamlined gameplay to encourage fast and furious matches. Spacetime Studios will be leveling up the competition at the South by Southwest (SXSW) Interactive Festival from Friday, March 13th, to Sunday, March 15th, where event attendees will have an opportunity to play Call of Champions in a first-of-its-kind mobile exhibition tournament at the Palmer Events Center and areas surrounding Austin.

In the Call of Champions arena, players will be able to control one out of over twenty different Champions across five distinct classes, each coming equipped with their own unique playstyle and special abilities. Players will be immersed in a fiction that takes place in a time beyond the cosmos as they take on the role of a godlike entity that controls Champions in the arena for sport.

“While the concept of the mobile MOBA is not new, we feel there’s significant room to improve the competitive experience, catering to the short sessions in which gamers use their mobile devices,” said Gary Gattis, CEO, Spacetime Studios. “We've distilled the MOBA to its core components by removing things like item shops, minions, and jungles and adding powerups, a five-minute clock, and a full suite of crazy abilities at your fingertips. Add on deep social layers like friends, teams, and broadcast/spectator modes, and there is nothing like it on mobile.”

Call of Champions is a next-generation MOBA designed for competitive gamers with tablets and mobile devices. Matches have a 5-minute limit in order to deliver exhilarating action and swift outcomes in each session while enabling players to enjoy quick games on the go. With competition in mind, Call of Champions features an expansive social toolset for players to recruit team members, plan matches, earn achievements and loot through the Call of Champions social hub, plus view or broadcast matches live.

Call of Champions will be featured in the world's first mobile exhibition tournament at SXSW in Austin, Texas from March 13th to March 15th. At the top of every hour, attendees will compete against a team of Spacetime developers live-streaming from various iconic Austin locations. Spacetime Studios will be in booth #229 at the Palmer Events Center. The SXSW Gaming Expo is free and open to the public. For more information and to track the mobile team in Austin, please visit: www.CallofChampions.com/sxsw.

To rate the Champions, check out the latest game news, and sign up to receive information on the early access beta program, please visit: www.CallofChampions.com.

Call of Champions will be available in 2015 as a free download on the App Store for iPhone, iPad and iPod touch and on Google Play for Android devices.

Sorry folks, you won't be able to snatch names (not that any of you would sell them...). People can call themselves whatever they want, we'll have unique identifiers appended. Kinda like Battle.net

I cant wait, might be too early to ask but have you decided on what it will play on for example iOS 7 and up? If so looks like I'll have to buy a new tab

Awesome trailer. I love the 5-minute match idea. Hell, maybe even shorter -- 2-3 minutes!

This is a question for the developers, How is this MOBA game different than other MOBA games?

Please also take the time to look at this thread there was some discussion about the new upcoming game, I just wish there was more activity/discussion on that post:

by identifiers, are they like logos/icons next to people's names?

G, any more examples on this....the same one doesnt seem to yield so much of an idealistic thought of how we will call ourselves...

Plus, can yall make another pvp like no HP displays?...it gets boring to know the opponents HP and then u can apply the finishing combo when HP is low.

Hopefully they'll let players who signed up play before it comes out. I just signed up lol. It reminds me a little of league of legends, but faster games and a different structure. Looking foward to playing and making new friends :) . I just hope its not like pl and only those who join at very start get an unfair bouns gear or something, or that u have to pay for, haha. And if so, please don't make it for only people who played in beta, but for all who played within first month of reliase on playstore or itunes :). Like gear. Starter pack or skins exclusive to people who had joined within first month of realise not beta though. Lol, just because many won't make beta and will be upset about it. Anyway thxs for this awesome new game, can't wait.... but i got to.
