“We are going out as fast as we can to get up and running,” Goslin said. Goslin said the company will add more features, heroes, maps, and weapons. Dungeon Rampage will officially launch later this year on multiple platforms. Previously, IAC launched InstantAction, a web game publisher that it shut down a while ago. “Our game play is a lot more like an arcade title,” Goslin said. But he said that the company’s first title delivers a fast-action fighting game that you wouldn’t otherwise find on Facebook. Goslin said he knows that moving into Facebook will bring the company into competition with established leaders such as Zynga in casual games and Kixeye in serious hardcore games. And while Dungeon Rampage is light-hearted and full of humor, it’s going after more serious gamers than your typical Facebook FarmVille game. Most Facebook titles are slower games in which players take their turns one at a time. The title is unique as a fast-action, synchronous game in which players fight alongside each other in real-time, Goslin said. It’s a cartoon-like fantasy dungeon-crawling game, sort of like Blizzard’s Diablo III title but a lot less serious, Rebel general manager Mike Goslin told GamesBeat. Burbank, Calif.-based Rebel, a division of Internet giant IAC, has been testing Dungeon Rampage for months, and it has garnered more than 2 million registered users during that time (and now 700,000 monthly active users).
