Indie developer Kiz Studio's madcap multiplayer online battle arena game Smashmuck Champions entered Steam closed beta on March 22, kicked off the studio's participation at PAX East. Throughout the show, many PAX attendees stoped by Kiz's booth (#508) and Freeplay Sessions in the PCLAN area to get hands-on with the special SmashMuck PAX East demo, met with the game's creators and received beta keys and free swag.
Shawn of RealGamerNewz writes, "With Dota and LoL being so popular and bringing in millions of dollars, how can a new game make itself stand out among the crowd? Well, Kiz Studios managed to pull that off in such a way that it allows hardcore and casual players to mesh seamlessly without ruining fun."
