The game had players taking control of a vehicle piloted by two Orks, one driver and one gunner, who were fighting against up to 15 enemy vehicles, 32 players in total with the aim of destroying opposing vehicles.[3]
Vehicles would have been totally customisable and arenas featured booby traps and crowd interaction.[4]
