Exciting news for fans of stealth action games—VIVA NOBOTS has officially launched its public alpha test! Discover how you can join the playtest and become one of the first players to experience this unique treasure-hunting adventure.

VIVA NOBOTS Enters Public Alpha Testing Phase

Join the Playtest on Steam!

The upcoming multiplayer stealth game VIVA NOBOTS is now open for public alpha testing on Steam! The test period will run for two weeks, from April 24th to May 8th, 2025, at 8:59 AM JST. Gamers interested in participating can simply visit the VIVA NOBOTS Steam store page and click the "Request Access" button to gain entry into the alpha playtest.

In a recent Steam news post, SHUEISHA GAMES, the developer and publisher behind the title, expressed their gratitude for community support. They encouraged players who get the chance to try the prototype to share honest feedback. “Depending on the feedback we receive during this user test, we may be able to proceed toward an official release,” they noted.

Master the Art of Stealth Treasure Hunting

VIVA NOBOTS delivers an engaging gameplay experience where up to 16 players compete to collect as much treasure as possible without being detected. Players take on the role of a NOBOT—a secret treasure hunter disguised as an NPC excavation robot—blending into the environment while trying to uncover valuable loot hidden within ancient ruins.

Each round challenges players to dig for treasure using a slots-like roulette mini-game, which not only rewards loot but also provides helpful buffs. However, staying undetected is key. Rival players are also on the hunt, and getting caught could mean losing everything.

To turn the tide, players can use the Doubt Gun to expose impostors among the bots. Successfully identifying and eliminating another NOBOT grants bonus rewards and any stolen loot they were carrying. But beware—shooting real security bots triggers consequences, and those mechanical guards won’t hesitate to retaliate.

Victory can be achieved in two ways: either escape the ruins with your loot intact or expose three rival players to trigger a "Victory Lap," declaring yourself the ultimate NOBOT champion.
