Bunny-based Platform Shooter ‘My Pet Hooligan’ available for free on Epic Games Store

Collaboration with Prime Gaming gives 12 months of exclusive in-game through Twitch Drops

Burbank, Calif. — September 20, 2023 — AMGI Studios has today announced the Early Access launch of its free-to-play title My Pet Hooligan — a AAA action-packed bunny shooter exclusively through the Epic Games Store. My Pet Hooligan is a unique experience that blends Hollywood-like animation technology and a shooter featuring a roster of diverse playable rabbits.

In addition to being available on the Epic Games Store, AMGI has signed a 12-month collaboration with Prime Gaming, which will offer exclusive content drops monthly for Prime members. Prime Gaming subscribers who access the game through the platform in the next 12 months will receive exclusive digital bundles of customized My Pet Hooligan in-game content, including in-game wearables, skins, badges and special offers. The first drop, available for the next 30 days, includes Max’s Zip-up Hoody, Jeans and Shoes, from the game’s cinematic trailer, as well as Thumps by Kré Black Headphones. New drops will be available every month.

The Amazon Prime Gaming collaboration will see drops displayed and promoted on the Prime platform alongside other prominent titles such as League of Legends, Valorant and Diablo IV.

Luke Paglia, Chief Operating Officer of AMGI Studios, stated, “We put storytelling and animation first to create highly engaging gameplay. Some might like to skate around the city finding digital collectibles, battling other players, and destroying ZuckBots, while others will battle it out in Coinpocalypse or Anarchy Mode — and that is perfectly fine with us. Having partners like Amazon Prime Gaming and Epic Games supporting us allows us to launch the game in a way that focuses solely on the gameplay and enriches the gamer experience.”

Amazon Prime members can start claiming MPH content today via the Prime Gaming website, with monthly drops scheduled over the next 12 months.

AMGI Studios is growing as a pioneer in gaming animation technology, while being led by several entertainment industry veterans. Chief Creative Officer and Chief Technology Officer Colin Brady, a former animation lead at Pixar, has taken helm at pushing forward this proprietary technology that aims to bridge the gap between gaming and traditional entertainment.

Colin Brady said “My Pet Hooligan merges Disney-style animation with proprietary technology in a Fortnite-style platform. Our lively community rallies behind freedom-fighting rabbits using quirky weapons battling MetaZuckBot's oppression. Along with battle games, players can customize and chat in social arenas like theaters and karaoke bars.”

My Pet Hooligan is available to download for free today on Epic Games Store.
