Electrifying Dave the Diver Collaboration Rewards all Participants with Limited-Edition In-Game Background



Stockholm, Sweden - October 22 2025 - This coming weekend, from Friday, October 24, through Sunday, October 26, Modoyo invites players to join its first global playtest for Heart Electric. Dial up the chaos in this hero first-person shooter with its distinctive take on team-based combat. The task is simple - four armed squads enter the arena and must drain opponents' energies before depleting their own. Players can use special Hearts to steal their opponent's Energy, but not without risking a raid on their own. Over the weekend, players will experience the power of Magnetic Flux alongside several of the in-game heroes, each with unique abilities. To commemorate the playtest, all players who take to the battle arena this weekend will receive an exclusive, limited-edition Dave the Diver background.

Each hero in Heart Electric wields the Flux and can manipulate anything metallic in its surroundings. Once the Flux is activated, loose metal objects attach onto the body and act as armour, repelling enemies and stunning them on impact. Flux can be effectively used to strategically navigate the environment by swinging through the air using metal surfaces and creating a sequence of jumps to outsmart opponents. There are also special objects that the Flux can magnetise for added effect, such as barrels filled with explosive liquid, special Flux Cores able to emit concussive radiation, or even a jet stream of air to blow opponents away. Full Magnetic Flux Mechanics will be available across three distinct arenas. This revolutionary mechanic enables combatants to manipulate metal, soar through arenas, and outplay their opponents.

“The physics-based mechanic powering Magnetic Flux is unique to Heart Electric, and we can’t wait for the global community to experience its power this weekend,” said Niklas “Figge” Fegraeus, Creative Director of Modoyo. “Magnetic Flux allows players to navigate environments in creative ways, offering unique ways to take out the opposition. We fully expect players to create highlight reels in ways we’ve yet to see in the game.”

What's more, every hero in Heart Electric has special abilities. For instance, in this upcoming playtest, players can play as “Prodigy”, whose primary ability is sound. Using Sonar, she discovers hidden enemies in the vicinity. Coupled with her passive ability for noise cancelling, she gains a tactical advantage, and she’s able to take stealthy shots at unsuspecting opponents without revealing her location. Heroes will have a diverse range of primary weapons with fully customisable loadouts. The playtest includes the addition of challenging team tactics in a brand new competitive format, and to up the tension and electric-charged gameplay, global leaderboards will be available to track competitive rankings.

Heart Electric is the debut game by Stockholm-based developer Modoyo, led by industry veteran Niklas “Figge” Fegraeus.
