UNLEASH YOUR ARROWS ON THE DOMINION AS TOMOE GOZEN IN ACTION ROGUELIKE, CHAMPION SHIFT

The renowned samurai has a score to settle.

San Juan, Puerto Rico, 7 December 2023 | SRG Studios is bringing samurai skills to their upcoming action roguelike, Champion Shift. Tomoe Gozen, a female warrior from twelfth-century feudal Japan, is the newest playable character in the upcoming multiplayer title. 

Stoic. Capable. Loyal. Tomoe Gozen wields her determination and competence as expertly as her bow. Entering the world of Champion Shift under the cloud of the Dominion, Tomoe is ready to fight alongside the other champions to secure their freedom. Wielding Moon Piercer, her precise bow, and a lethal hand fan, Tomoe clears the Dominion’s mobs with ease. Players can take advantage of Tomoe’s specialized kit, including different archery techniques to deal additional damage and boomerang mechanics to increase her hand fan’s damage. 

Champion Shift grants each champion a vehicle form; players can switch between their champion and a sleek car with the press of a button. Energy is generated around the map to power each car, and shifting deals additional damage to surrounding enemies. As Tomoe transforms between samurai and sports car, a shower of honing petals descends upon enemies, clearing the area for more hands-on combat.

Tomoe joins Champion Shift’s roster of reputable heroes, including Athena, Gilgamesh, and Sun Wukong. Champion Shift grants you control of these legendary warriors to enact justice on the Dominion, a shadow corporation bent on world domination.

The hunt begins as your champions, equipped with the newfound power of their vehicle forms, battle through the Dominion’s forces in search of victory.

Features:

  • Unlock globally iconic champions, including Sun Wukong, Athena, and Gilgamesh!
  • Default auto attacks or manual aim for a customizable gameplay experience. 
  • Challenging enemy encounters to test your playstyle and strategy, including boss battles.
  • Shift between vehicle and champion, each with their own strengths and additional skills.
  • Explore hundreds of celestial ability combinations to customize your perfect run.
  • Play solo or co-op with up to 4 players.
  • Original scores accompany each stage, including day and night variations.

The Champion Shift Prologue is available now for download on Steam. Wishlist the title to keep up with the latest Champion Shift news, or visit the official Champion Shift website, X (formerly known as Twitter) and YouTube for more.

AVATAR: FRONTIERS OF PANDORA NOW AVAILABLE

Players Can Experience Pandora Firsthand and Become Na’vi

Sydney, Australia — December 7, 2023 — Today, Ubisoft® announced that Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora is now available in Australia and New Zealand on Ubisoft+, PlayStation®5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC through Ubisoft Connect, and releases worldwide on December 7. The game is rated M, and the standard edition is available for a RRP of $109.95 AUD.

Developed by Massive Entertainment – a Ubisoft Studio* in close collaboration with James Cameron’s production company Lightstorm Entertainment and Disney, Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora is a first-person standalone adventure that takes place on the same timeline as the Avatar films, built using the latest iteration of the Snowdrop engine.

“From the soundscape of Pandora to the living and reactive open world, every moment of Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora is designed to keep players immersed in this incredible world,” said Magnus Jansen, creative director at Massive. “We worked closely with the Avatar filmmakers to create a faithful extension of the Avatar universe while giving players a new setting and story to experience.”

Set in the Western Frontier, a never-before-seen continent, players can explore Pandora firsthand. With brand-new Na’vi clans, flora, and fauna, including a banshee companion to bond with and ride in the open skies, players can interact with the vibrant open world in single-player or online in two-player co-op. In Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora, the human militaristic RDA corporation is back on Pandora and stripping away resources from the land and its inhabitants. Players will play as a Na’vi, born on Pandora but abducted as a child and raised away from Na’vi culture in an RDA training program. With Na’vi roots and a human upbringing, players will find themselves suddenly free only to feel like strangers in their homeland. Players must protect the Western Frontier from the RDA’s return, reconnect with their lost Na’vi heritage, and unite disparate clans for the greater good.

Across the expansive Western Frontier, players will meet unique clans who will teach them what it means to be Na’vi, such as honing their “Na’vi Senses,” mastering their strength to navigate the beautiful and dangerous open world, as well as upgrading their skills to push back the RDA; using traditional Na’vi weapons like bows for precision and spear-thrower for high impact; and forming a lifelong bond with a banshee – who can also be a powerful aerial combat ally. Players can leverage their human training and use weapons like stun grenades and employ multiple combat styles to fend off the RDA. 

Players can customize their character with options including different body types and voices. As they journey across the Western Frontier and connect with their Na’vi heritage, players can equip more gear, craft better quality weapons, and upgrade skills to fit their playstyle. Customization also extends to the player’s banshee with unique gear pieces, and more.

PlayStation players will have free access to the Aranahe Warrior Pack. Season Pass owners will also have a bonus quest available at launch, and two-story packs that will be available in 2024 for players who want to continue their adventures on Pandora. Through Ubisoft+, players can access The Ultimate Edition, which includes the season pass, digital artbook, the Sarentu Heritage cosmetic pack, and the Sarentu Hunter equipment pack, valued at a RRP of AUD $189.95.

To transport players to Pandora at any given time, the Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora – Original Game Soundtrack  featuring music by Emmy-nominated conductor, composer, and performer Pinar Toprak, can be streamed, and purchased on December 8.
