Lead with empathy and put a stop to the violence in this heartfelt, narrative-driven RPG
Boulder, Colo. (Oct. 10, 2023) – Publisher Serenity Forge and developer This I Dreamt today released the narrative-driven, anti-war RPG Long Gone Days across PC, PlayStation, Xbox and Nintendo Switch for $24.99. Today’s news was accompanied by a new trailer showcasing the overwhelming challenges you’ll need to overcome if you hope to stop an unjust war that you’ve been training to be a part of your entire life:
Rourke’s life was always predetermined. As a child of The Core, he was chosen from birth to be a sniper. Just like that, training for this role became his world. But on his first mission, he realizes that the war he’s been training for his entire life isn’t what it seems, and everything changes. Rourke never anticipated being called a deserter, but there has to be a way to stop this war and end the bloodshed: https://serenityforge.com/games/long-gone-days
In Long Gone Days, embark on a journey where you will grapple with numerous real-world complexities, including an intricate web of language barriers, and forge bonds with a colorful cast of potential comrades. Every encounter becomes a pivotal moment, as the ripples of your choices extend to shape the fates of those around you. Can you rise above these formidable barriers, forging connections that transcend linguistic confines, or will the unforgiving grasp of warfare shatter the fragile bonds you endeavor to build? The answers lie in your hands, as you navigate a narrative that delves deep into the essence of shared humanity.
Unfortunately, peace is elusive in Long Gone Days, and Rourke’s expertise as a sniper frequently comes into play. Spot and take down targets from afar or engage up close in strategic, turn-based combat where specific parts of an enemy’s body can be targeted to perhaps come to a less violent end. Through you, Rourke’s shots will change the world and plot of Long Gone Days.

Test your Necromantic skills with a new quest and combat arena!
CAMBRIDGE, England – Oct. 10, 2023 – Out now in RuneScape, “Ancient Awakening” is the first update for the fantasy MMORPG’s Necromancy season. Following the launch of Necromancy earlier this year, “Ancient Awakening” sees players delve deeper into the lore behind the skill as they explore the secretive island of Ungael.
Joined by a full adventuring party, featuring Raptor the mysterious warrior, Aster the butler, and Bill, the architect who featured prominently in RuneScape’s previous Fort Forinthry season, players will discover a powerful ritual underway which will have devastating consequences for the world of Gielinor. During the quest, players will fight to stop the ritual, led by the necromancer Zemouregal, and in doing so prepare themselves for an epic new boss battle launching in November.
“Ancient Awakening” also features a new player-vs-monster combat activity which tests players on their necromantic combat skills, pitting them against waves of Zemouregal’s minions. With each run of the Ungael Arena comes new challenges, adding more complexity to the activity. Completing the encounter will unlock new titles and weapon cosmetics, as well as the Raptor’s infamous outfit.
For RuneScape skillers, “Ancient Awakening” expands the Fort Forinthry area with a Botanist’s Bench which will help players prepare Necromancy potions for the upcoming boss fight in November. The delightful Granny Rowan will be on hand to assist with decanting your brews and nattering your ear off.
Necromancy is a standalone combat skill which launched in August alongside a huge expansion including a new hub area, nine brand-new quests, and two deadly boss fights. Necromancy is free for players up to level 20 and scales to level 120 for RuneScape Members. For more information, please visit the RuneScape website.
RuneScape is available now on PC, Steam, iOS, and Android, complete with cross-platform progression and play on PC and mobile.

Continuing Arc System Works’ 35th Anniversary celebration, Arc System Works America, Inc. has announced that classic 2D action game River City: Rival Showdown will be digitally release in North America this October 12, 2023, for Nintendo Switch™, PlayStation 4® and PC via Steam. Steam pre-orders are available now!
The original 3DS version of River City: Rival Showdown was released in 2016 to wide acclaim. Arc System Works is not only reviving the fan-favorite game for current consoles, but also giving it a full power-up of modernization to bring players the ultimate 2D action game experience. The updated 2023 edition includes all of the updates found on the 3DS version: the main game loaded with a much larger volume of settings and storylines, improved graphics and operability, and a brand-new prequel story mode to play through after you solve the main story’s mystery!
River City: Rival Showdown’s key features and new additions include:
● Action-Packed Story of Conspiracy and Mystery – “Hot Blooded Story” – Following a mysterious evening attack on Kunio, he learns that Mami (girlfriend of his rival, Riki) has also been kidnapped. Following the timeline from three days before Mami’s kidnapping, Kunio and Riki band together alongside Kunio’s friends from Nekketsu High School, to solve the mystery and find Mami. Their search brings them to the source of the evil, Reiho Academy led by “Yamada”, where a heated battle begins… ● Free Scenario System with Multiple Endings – Players must search and battle through different events to unravel the “Yamada” conspiracy and get to the truth. However, this story does not follow one set scenario, but is experienced non-linearly through a concept of time passing over a four-day period. This includes events scattered throughout the map, where events played during the first three in-game days will dictate events on the final fourth day and change game endings. ● Item Collection & Special Abilities – While unraveling the story, visit the game’s “convenience stores” where recovery items can be purchased, “public baths” where HP (stamina) and SP (willpower) can be recovered, and “thrift stores” to buy equipment with special abilities. In addition, Special Moves have evolved to be more spectacular, while experience gained in battle can be used to enhance your status! ● New Prequel Story Mode – “Cold-Blooded Hardcore Yamada-kun” – Enjoy an additional mode that can be played after clearing the main story mode (“Hot Blooded Story”). Take control of evil big boss “Yamada” and play the prequel to the incident. How did “Yamada” expand his ambitions? And what is his purpose? Experience the dark machinations behind the incident.
As a special add-on for fighting game fans, 2D action game Double Dragon Duel will also be included as an extra game mode! This mode allows players to enjoy fighting game-like action using a large number of characters, including hidden characters when certain conditions are met. Network play is also supported, so you can play with friends far away.
