Kiloo Launches New Endless Runner Game Exclusively on AppGallery for all Android users
Kiloo, co-developer and publisher of the hugely popular Subway Surfers game between 2012-2020, has selected Huawei’s AppGallery to debut its exciting new endless arcade runner game, MetroLand.
Landing on AppGallery exclusively on February 3, MetroLand challenges players to become non-conforming, young and energetic explorers, dashing, dodging and even using parkour to outrun the evil MegaCorp guards. Denmark-based Kiloo has invested its extensive experience to develop this new endless runner that can be picked up as easily for five minutes of play or for several hours, at a pace to suit the user.
MetroLand, as the title suggests, has a metropolitan setting. The gameplay takes place across a number of cities and includes seven different areas that unlock as progress is made. It aims to illustrate busy, modern city life with the emphasis on momentum, speed and excitement.
Emulating some of the most downloaded endless runner games on the market, including its own, Kiloo has taken MetroLand to the next level, incorporating new design trends, polishing the gameplay, and adding meta elements to appeal to a wider variety of user profiles.
Jacob Møller, CEO at Kiloo, said: “We have gathered all our learnings from working on endless running games over the years and condensed them into our take on the perfect, casual runner. MetroLand is instantly familiar and engaging, but still holds surprising twists and innovations for all those who are brave enough to travel to MetroLand and join our group of charismatic youngsters in their playful rebellion against MegaCorp, the antagonists of the game.”
Kiloo is aiming its new launch at a broad audience and has built in frequent updates that are themed around annual events such as Halloween, or weekly events that keep players fully engaged. MetroLand also allows the characters to be sent on missions and evolve as the game is being played.
“Games can be longer or shorter, easier or harder, cartoonish or realistic. But ultimately what separates good games from the great ones is their level of fun. And that´s precisely the key criteria for the AppGallery editors to cherry pick the best games in the market for our users. With that logic in mind, we are extremely pleased to offer to all AppGallery users across all Android smartphones, the next generation of endless runners, from the hands of those who hold the crown in that genre, the outstanding Kiloo team,” said Dr. Jaime Gonzalo, VP of Huawei Mobile Services.
AppGallery, as the official Huawei distribution platform for apps and games, is pre-loaded on all Huawei smartphones. The app store is, however, also available to download for all other Android smartphone brands directly from the official website. By downloading AppGallery, gamers can join the gaming community of millions of active players and benefit from its exclusive catalogue and offers.
Over the past year, AppGallery has firmly established as the world’s third largest app store with 580m global monthly active users (+10% YoY). More than 187K+ apps are now integrated with HMS Core and there is an uplift of +56% YoY in app distributions outside of China.

THE BATTLE OF POLYTOPIA RELEASES NEW AQUARION SPECIAL SKIN IN LATEST UPDATE
Midjiwan, the award-winning independent studio behind The Battle of Polytopia has today released a new Aquarion Special Skin, additional language options and balance updates to the recently reworked Aquarion tribe. Players will dive deep into the Ritiki Marshlands encountering a lost Aquarion outpost with the new skin known as “The Forgotten”.

Using the unique abilities of “The Forgotten”, players can build on water, summon giant squids, create speed enhancing bubbles, ride crocodiles, tame toads, and traverse their marshy terrains with ease.
In addition, the latest update to the game now offers expanded language options: Hindi, Indonesian, Malay, Polish, Thai, Turkish & Vietnamese.
Christian Lövstedt, CEO of The Battle of Polytopia, commented: “I feel that this skin is one of the best we’ve created and has quickly become my personal favourite. Additionally, we have added Bubble Tech to the Aquarion Waterways, making that tribe even greater. With expanded language options and new gameplay mechanics, we’re inviting players to dive into the rich lore and strategy that make the Battle of Polytopia truly special.”
To celebrate the launch of the new update, Midjiwan hosted an exclusive livestream event, offering fans a unique look behind the scenes, live gameplay, and discussions with the development team – the livestream is available to watch now: The Forgotten livestrea m by Midjiwan.
