Kings of Steel

King of Steel is a fighting beat-em-up videogame, projected to be released to the PlayStation 4, XboxOne, Nintendo Wii U and Microsoft Windows systems.

The game is set in a not-too-far future where there is a planet similar to Earth, but the population is only robots.

Plot
The year is 2050 AD. The place is a planet called Gaeus, a planet geographically equal to Earth. The planet's population is mainly anthropomorphic robots, more precisely android-like beings, since they behave just like real life humans. After a plebiscitus voting in the whole Russia, in 2005 AD the whole nation was divided in two halves: Moskovia, the Western half, and Siberium, the Eastern half. In 2010, Alaska became independent after an independence voting. As to obviate to the fullfillment of the 50 States of America, Texas government split in two halves, Northen and Southern Texas. After a tremendously bloody war occurring in 2030 against a powerful terroristic empire, the coalition, formed by almost all the nations in the world, broke out as a peaceful group of nations. The United Nations Congress (UNC) decided to ban all weapons in the world until the necessity of an emergency of a war.

The Purge
On May 25th, 2015 AD, the "New Fathers of America" Parlamient, substituting to the fallen Democratic goverment of the United States, inaugurated the First Night of the Purge. There, all crimes were legal, and all police, fire and medical emergency services were unavailable from 7 p.m. to 7 a.m. The only rules are that no government officials with authorization levels of 10 or higher are to be distrubed, and all weapons above class 4 (explosive weapons such as grenades, rocket launchers, bazookas, ect.) are forbidden. Anyone who violates the rules of the Purge would be publicly dismounted completely, and all his data destroyed. The purge has resulted in crime and unemployment rates plummeting to 1% and a strong economy. Although it is thought to be used as an act of catharsis for the U.S. populace, in reality, it is used as a method of artificial population control as the unemployed poor in slum neighborhoods are usually the main targets.

Fate, howerer, is not without a sense of irony.

May 25, 2025 AD. After the (apparent) great success of the Purge and on the 10th anniversary of the first Purge, the "New Fathers of America" have influenced the majority of the world on adopting the Purge themselves, as the media credits the Purge for low unemployment and poverty levels across the country. Although this, the Purge, obviously, goes not without any opposition. Indeed, an anti-Purge resistance group intermittently hacks into TV programs to broadcast messages challenging the system, stating that the Purge does not cleanse aggression, but rather eliminates the poor. Already, it's too late: various governments in the world, first among them the Milanese general Giovanni D'Annunzio and the Japanese general Takano Nakamura, accept to introduce the Purge in their own countries, hoping that would improve their lifestyles. And that seems to work: crime and unemployment rates fall to 10-5% or even less; that, howerer, generates protesting on all countries who got influenced by the Purge.

The Purge in Italy
In Italy, howerer, things started to precipitate. On May 25, 2026 AD, Giacomo and his brother Lucio D'Annunzio, sons of Giovanni, the Doge of Milan, and their uncle Gennaro departed from their home (luckly defended with secret weapons and traps against the death squads). On an outcrop, on their way to ambush the death squads incoming from their neighbourhoods, they instead fell on an ambush themselves. The Doge himself had indeed brought an alien weapon, and with that, he shot above the expedition group, and during the consequent avalanche, the rubble crushed Lucio and many of their soldiers. Thus, Giacomo set out on a quest to kill the Doge and avenge his brother. But during the whole night of the Purge, the Doge was seen nowhere.

The League
The Robot Ironkill League (RIL) pits all the best robots in a world-scale tournament. Matches involved in the league can be exhibition matches, team matches and faction wars.

Faction Wars are one of the most famous matches before the proper RIL World Tournament, and obviously, the individuals of any faction are pitted against another faction individuals. Factions are based by the world continents, as all the nations in the world are politically independent each others, whilst in the RIL every nation belongs to a specific faction:


 * European Union: Includes the whole Europe and Moskovia (Western Russia).
 * Greater Asia: Includes all of the East Asian nation until the borders of India and Pakistan, plus Siberium (Eastern Russia) and the whole Oceanian continent (Australia, New Zealand, Fiji, Palau, Tuvalu...).
 * African Commonwealth: Includes the whole Africa, except the Northern States (which form the Northern African Federation, or NAF, a sub-faction and minor federation to the RIL).
 * Middle-Eastern Brotherhood: Includes the Middle Eastern nations, as in the nations who didn't join neither the African Commonwealth not the Greater Asia (Iran, Egypt, Lybia, Tunisia, Morocco, Iraq, Israel, Turkey, Syria...).
 * Twin Americas: Includes both the American continents and the Caribbean Islands, including Cuba, Puerto Rico, Hawaii, Midway, Antigua and Barbuda, Trinidad and Tobago and Saint Lucia.
