Acclaim's Major Holiday Push:
Released in December 1994 as part of Acclaim's massive worldwide holiday marketing campaign.
Pre-Rendered CGI Aesthetic:
Heavily hyped prior to launch for utilizing advanced pre-rendered 3D computer graphics (similar to Donkey Kong Country), the game's visuals were created on high-end Silicon Graphics workstations to give the robotic combatants a realistic, metallic look.
Mirage Technologies' Ambition:
Developed by British studio Mirage, the project famously enlisted legendary rock guitarist Brian May of Queen to compose portions of the atmospheric, industrial soundtrack.
