BattleBit Remastered is a massively multiplayer online first-person shooter developed by a team of three indie developers—SgtOkiDoki, Vilaskis, and TheLiquidHorse—and published by SgtOkiDoki for Microsoft Windows exclusively through the Steam distribution platform. Loosely set during a conflict between the United States and Russia, BattleBit allows up to 254 players to compete in player versus player matches on large maps. The game is strongly inspired by the Battlefield series by DICE, with similar gameplay mechanics to earlier entries in that series such as team-oriented character classes and destructible environments.
BattleBit was released in early access on June 15, 2023 to considerable financial success and popularity, with over 1.8 million copies sold within its first two weeks of release. It was also critically acclaimed for its teamwork-oriented gameplay, low poly visuals, user-friendly game design, and overall simplicity and uniqueness.
