Highlights:

• Various stories unfold in the high-profile competitive event, Kivotos Halo Festival
• New students Yuuka (Track), Mari (Track) and Hasumi (Track) added
• New Total Assault raid boss, Goz added

NEXON Korea Corp. (CEO: Jung-Hun Lee) announced on Wednesday, April 26, the addition of the latest event story, “Get Set, Go!,” to Blue Archive, the subculture game developed by their subsidiary company Nexon Games (CEO: Yong-Hyun Park).

In this event story, players will learn about the expectations, goals and struggles of the students participating in the highly anticipated Kivotos Halo Festival. Alongside the story, the Dice Race event will also be available. By using dice to move around the track, players can acquire Eligma, Hasumi (Track)’s Eleph and various other rewards.

Three new students will be included in the update as well. Yuuka (Track) is a Mystic Striker from Millennium. When using her EX Skill, she moves to the targeted location and gains a barrier proportional to her healing. She also summons a flag at that location, moving three allies to that flag and provides a barrier proportional to her healing. Mari (Track) is a Mystic Striker from Trinity General School whose EX Skill restores the HP of allies, excluding herself, in a circular area proportional to her healing.

Hasumi (Track) is a Striker from Trinity General School who can be obtained from the event itself. Her EX Skill deals damage to a single enemy proportional to her ATK. This damage can be increased by 30% per Cost by spending up to two additional Costs.

Goz, a new Total Assault raid boss, will also be added. Goz is a one-animatronic show in the theme park, Slumpia. Goz’s large health pool and trickster nature will require a strategic approach to overcome.

Nexon will give 1,200 Pyroxenes and one 10-Recruitment Ticket as rewards to all players who pre-registered for the event. Nexon is also holding a special login event called “Cheer On! Arona’s Special Bonus!” to celebrate the update.

Rolling into the battle for the first time ever comes the console-exclusive Leman Russ tank!

April 27, 2023 — A conflict of cosmic scale begins, as the action of Warhammer 40,000 collides with World of Tanks Modern Armor as a special part of the current epic season, Gladiators.

During this Imperium-sized event, players can get five new Premium tanks inspired by the Warhammer 40,000 universe, two new 3D Hero Commanders (Volusad Thassius of the Ultramarines and Patricia Laserian of the Sisters of Battle), and six new 2D Standard Commanders. 

All of this sets the stage for a month-long, two-stage challenge against both the forces of Chaos and the Orks. The Warhammer 40,000 event roars into action on May 2 and runs until June 6, 2023.

Triumphantly making its debut in World of Tanks Modern Armor is the Leman Russ heavy tank, a monstrous slab of mechanized armor built exclusively – for console. Named for the Primarch of the Space Wolves Legion, the Leman Russ heavy tank for console was conceived and implemented in full cooperation with Games Workshop.

In a massive two-stage community event, tankers will align themselves with either the Space Marines or the Sisters of Battle, with the option to change to the other side for the second stage. From there they can join forces with other players around the globe to fight the Orks and the forces of Chaos. Destroying the Orks will make the Ork content available to all users (for purchase or as rewards); the same mechanic will apply to the Chaos forces and their in-game content.

Directing the voice-overs for the new 3D Hero Commanders is noted director Jason Baughan (Hitman 2, LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga, Fable: The Journey). Under his expertise, 330 lines of dialog for the Commanders Volusad Thassius of the Ultramarines and Patricia Laserian of the Sisters of Battle are brought strikingly to life, grounding the player and establishing the tone in the game of the Warhammer 40,000 universe.

“I’m proud of this project in all aspects really, but if I had to choose just one to highlight, it would be the voice-overs for the commanders. We’ve set a new bar for ourselves in terms of quality: hearing your Ultramarine commander or your Battle Sister commander praising your victory in combat really elevates the gameplay experience,” says Daniel Burr, Live Game Director for World of Tanks Modern Armor.

In addition to the Leman Russ heavy tank, the might of Warhammer 40,000 also comes to World of Tanks Modern Armor with new faction-affiliated tanks: Nemesis Tank Destroyer, Teefbreaka Light Tank, Reaper’s Scythe Medium Tank, and the Ignis Purgatio Medium Tank.

Free-To-Play Game Announces Console Launch Date, New Content and Season Pass Schedule

Sydney, Australia – April 28^th, 2023 – Toylogic and PLAION are proud to announce that Warlander, the free-to-play, third-person, online multiplayer warfare game is coming to consoles on 16^th May 2023. The game will be available on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S and feature cross-play across all platforms.

Warlander features a new genre of competitive gaming which is a hybrid between hack-and-slash, shooter and strategy with up to 100 players divided into five armies with the goal of destroying each other’s castles. Boasting three different classes: the warrior, the mage or the cleric, players can choose their preferred playstyle including the use of catapults, siege towers, battering rams and cataclysmic idols capable of potentially changing the tide of the battle or securing victory.

In preparation for the console launch there are:

• Two new maps:
  • Dawn Bridge B is an alternate version of the original Dawn Bridge map but covered in fog and with the number and location of the towers and siege weapons.
  • Moonlit Temple allows players to experience battles under the moonlight and features four catapults in the center which can play an important role in pushing the frontline. Additionally, siege battles utilise two routes requiring new strategies for both defense and attack.

• Two new skills:
  • The Divine Hammer builds up the cleric’s power that can be unleashed in a mighty hammer blow. It blasts nearby enemies away and heals allies at the same time. The skill can be charged up in three stages with the higher stages boosting range, damage and knockback.
  • Phoenix is an ultimate skill exclusive to the new Rank 5 Mage title, Inferno. Players can summon a phoenix to fly over the battlefield raining down fire, destroying siege weapons and other structures.

Warlander combatants finished over 400,000 battles on Steam so far slaying over one million players in the process.

It is now the perfect time to join Warlander with the start of Season 1 of the season pass which will contain new armour skins, new weapons, new emblems, new titles and more. The shop will also receive an update with new items becoming available at the start of the season.

Warlander is free-to-play right now on Steam and will be coming to PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S on 16^th May 2023.

Lyon, FRANCE — April 27, 2023 — ARMORED CORE™ VI FIRES OF RUBICON™, the latest high-octane action game by FromSoftware, Inc. and Bandai Namco Europe S.A.S. will release globally on August 25. Combining the 25 years of experience developing the ARMORED CORE franchise and action games in the ELDEN RING, and DARK SOULS franchise, ARMORED CORE VI FIRES OF RUBICON is full of mech action, including fast-paced battles, in-depth customization, and thrilling boss fights.

A mysterious new substance called “Coral” was discovered on the remote planet, Rubicon 3. As an energy source, this substance was expected to dramatically advance humanity’s technological and communications capabilities. Instead, it caused a catastrophe that engulfed the planet and the surrounding stars in flames and storms, forming a Burning Star System. Almost half a century later, Coral has resurfaced on Rubicon 3, a planet now contaminated and sealed off by the catastrophe. Extra-terrestrial corporations and resistance groups fight over control of the substance. The player infiltrates Rubicon as an independent mercenary and finds themselves in a struggle over the substance with the corporations and other factions.

Featuring highly mobile and highly customizable mechas, ARMORED CORE VI FIRES OF RUBICON will put players in fast-paced battles, where they can make full use of offensive and defensive maneuvers on both land and in the air to overcome foes. To be the most successful and profitable mercenary on Rubicon 3, players must master rapidly changing combat distances, using the environment for protective cover, and omni-directional battles to overcome challenging enemies and situations.

In the first-ever gameplay reveal for ARMORED CORE VI FIRES OF RUBICON,these crucial elements are highlighted in a new trailer available here:

Preorder now and get ready for the global launch of ARMORED CORE VI FIRES OF RUBICON on August 25. The game will be part of PlayStation Free Upgrade and Xbox Smart Delivery.
