Clone Drone Brings Limb-Slicing Battles to Mobile

Clone Drone in the Danger Zone has launched on iOS and Android. The mobile release coincides with the game’s 10-year Anniversary Update, which adds three new Challenges.

The game follows a human whose mind has been uploaded into a robot gladiator. Players fight in arenas controlled by an empire of intelligent machines, targeting individual body parts instead of reducing a standard health bar.

The mobile version includes a story campaign about joining a resistance against the machine empire, along with cooperative and player-versus-player modes. Some sections let players control a spaceship or ride dinosaurs.

The Anniversary Update adds three Challenges, including the long-awaited Saw Dog and another focused more heavily on the story. It also adds levels to Endless mode and quality-of-life improvements.

Combat requires players to aim each sword swing at a specific limb. Doborog previously described adapting those controls for touchscreens as one of the most difficult parts of the mobile port.

Clone Drone in the Danger Zone has sold more than two million copies on PC. The mobile release and Anniversary Update are available on iOS and Android.
