25 Years In The Making, Dreams Do Come True!

TUCSON, Ariz. – March 7, 2023 – POSTAL 4: No Regerts®, the stress-relieving first-person shooter in Running With Scissors’ classic franchise enjoyed by millions, criticized and scorned by the media, governments and courts for the past twenty-five years proves itself as the ultimate survivor in gaming history with its upcoming debut on Sony’s PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4 launch on Tuesday, March 21, 2023.

Get ready to dive into Running With Scissors’ first major offering on PlayStation platforms. Gaming’s “classiest” insane shooter lets you choose your identity, wardrobes and voice from the iconic original Rick Hunter to Corey Cruise, Zack Ward, or Jon St. John. Expect a crapload of honest efforts to quickly devolve into a series of poorly made decisions, comedic disasters, and unbelievable surprises as your POSTAL Dude adjusts to a new life in the open world sandbox city of Edensin.

The POSTAL Dude explodes and explores a weeklong journey to achieve the American Dream. Transition to the old 9-to-5 lifestyle through ironic and surreal environments using RWS-standard toys of the trade like the shovel, boomerang machete, fire, and urine. Everyone and anything is possible in Edensin. Enjoy being the POSTAL Dude by installing bidets, helping Americans escape to Mexico for work, scooter drive-bys, crazy Catnip reloads, diverse missions, and many unlockables.

Fondly remembered as one of 2022’s Worst Games according to Metacritic, POSTAL 4: No Regerts’ PlayStation launch comes with a wealth of improvements in performance, updated content from the PC version, and the amazing new DualSense wireless controller features. Unzip your zipper by swiping down on the trackpad, watch the taser turn your controller blue, hear your bodily relief coming from the controller’s speaker, feel the power of your weapons with the haptic feedback as well as adaptive triggers tailored for each weapon. 

“POSTAL 4: No Regerts represents everything we love about the American Dream,” said Vince Desi, founder of Running With Scissors. “I feel like a proud parent seeing the POSTAL Dude coming into the hands and sticky fingers of PlayStation players. More than ever before we give everyone a chance to identify and play as they want. POSTAL is anonymous and ready to share its glory with society on PlayStation 5 and 4 on Tuesday, March 21!”

POSTAL 4: No Regerts® launches on PS5 and PS4 on Tuesday, March 21, 2023, for the low price of $40 USD (which gives you a copy for both PS5 & PS4) and is currently available for PC on Steam, GOG, and Green Man Gaming.

Montreal, Canada – March 7, 2023 – With its latest Chapter, Tools Of Torment, Dead by Daylight returns to contemporary times to explore the modern technology horror paradigm. The newest Killer to step into the Fog is The Skull Merchant. The latest DLC also presents siblings Thalita and Renato Lyra, community-driven Survivors of Brazilian lineage. Along with the highly anticipated original Chapter comes a wide array of new Cosmetics, including Very Rare outfits for The Skull Merchant, Thalita and Renato, as well as two new Collections coming later this Spring.

Catch and Slash

The Skull Merchant is an apex hunter who uses macabre technology to spin a web of surveillance. Thanks to her Drones – hand-crafted using the remains of her victims, no less – she has a constant source of information at her disposal. 

Since The Skull Merchant established her hunting base in Shelter Woods, players will, from now on, encounter the map with her luxurious but gruesome amenities. This new concept of adding a tile into an existing map, changing its layout permanently, is an additional innovative feature brought on by Tools Of Torment.

Better Together

Growing up, siblings Thalita and Renato would bicker a lot and used their shared passion for kite fighting to settle their petty squabbles. From there, both developed a special bond, from which their Survivor perks stem from. These Teamwork Perks are geared towards collaboration and activate as long as Thalita or Renato remain in proximity with another Survivor. After healing a Survivor, Thalita’s Teamwork: Power of Two generates a movement speed boost for the healed Survivor and herself. After being healed by a fellow Survivor, Renato’s Teamwork: Collective Stealth hides both sets of Scratch Marks, provided the two players stay close together.     

Slaying Season

The Skull Merchant and the Siblings are the star of a new Collection of Exclusive Outfits to celebrate the Chapter’s release. Fans can get their hands on a Very Rare Cosmetic aptly named Encroaching Darkness for The Skull Merchant, from the Sonhadores Sombrios Collection and inspired by the dark and horrifying manga created by her late father. Thalita and Renato can be adorned in their Very Rare Outfits from the Family Album Collection. Thalita wears the Sibling’s Connection Cosmetic, consisting of a tropical two-piece swimsuit while Renato’s Sibling’s Trust Cosmetic is composed of a kite surfing short with a print reminiscent of sea waves.

Players will be able to enjoy two more exciting Collections in the upcoming weeks: starting March 22, several Survivors and Killer will receive new, flashy, fashionable, but equally practical Techwear Cosmetics. Starting in early April, fans will be able to dress their Killers and Survivors in a Collection straight out of Wonderland (yes, yes!).

The Dead by Daylight: Tools Of Torment Chapter is available now via Steam, PS5, PS4, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, Epic Games Store, Windows Store and Nintendo Switch.

Experience a heartfelt tale of loss and personal growth in this lane-based beat-’em-up featuring an all-star hero cast of badass cheerleaders

Cincinnati, Ohio (March 7, 2023) – Ra Ra Boom makes its official debut today as Cincinnati-based Gylee Games released the game’s official announcement trailer ahead of its first showcase at this year’s upcoming Game Developer Conference in San Francisco. Ra Ra Boom is an eye-catching, distinctive fast-paced four-player co-op beat ‘em up driven by a meaningful and emotional coming-of-age narrative about a group of ninja cheerleaders from space in a fight to save the rest of humanity on Earth. 

Check out the reveal trailer for Ra Ra Boom here:

In today’s reveal trailer, meet the team and watch them launch into action. Each member of Ra Ra Boom’s diverse cast of playable characters – Aris, Saida, Ren and Vee – sports their own weapons and abilities, giving players four different, unique takes on combat. Play fast and loose as Aris with her scythe or bring the pain as Vee, who wields a shield and machine gun. Any way you play, you and your teammates will be dismantling the robotic opposition.  

Building on the game’s core frenetic beat ’em up 2D action co-op gameplay, Ra Ra Boom incorporates huge boss battles and ranged attacks to create diverse gameplay within the traditional beat ‘em up genre. Each of the ninja cheerleaders will sport upgradable combos for both melee and ranged attacks featuring light, heavy and special attacks to keep each fight fresh and fierce. 

Ra Ra Boom also augments traditional beat ’em up gameplay with its unique integrated lane system. Integrating horizontal lanes naturally into the hand-drawn environments, you’ll be able to tell which enemy you’re targeting with a flurry of furious blows – whether in melee range or attacking from a distance using ranged attacks. With the ability to quickly switch between lanes, you can strategically target multiple opponents, racking up massive combos any true beat-’em-up fan can enjoy.

Ra Ra Boom features four playable, relatable characters all processing grief in their own way after the death of their friend and leader at the nefarious hands of Zoi, humanity’s biggest and most dangerous AI. After this rogue AI tried to destroy humanity 20 years ago, some humans managed to escape – but they didn’t get far. Now Zoi is back to finish what it started, and four teenage ninja cheerleaders who have only known life on a spaceship are the only ones capable of stopping the complete destruction of humanity off Earth.

Sporting an all-star, hand-drawn cast, each character will undergo their own character arcs which will tackle relatable topics such as mental health, friendship, trust, imposter syndrome and more. Cinematic cutscenes will assist in driving this narrative through the game, weaving each character together through the ups and downs of their quest for revenge and their mission to save the world. 

The game’s initial 10 levels introduce a variety of robot enemies and bosses ready for a challenge. Players will have to hone their skills if they are going to save humanity from the evil clutches of the AI. 

The journey back to Earth begins this Fall.

London, UK – 7th March 2023. Showcasing the FMV game – interactive film as the convergence of Film and Video Games; The Gallery will screen in various cinemas during the London Games Festival as an official side event from 29th March to 7th April.

Details of venues, dates, screening times and how to buy tickets can be found here.

Written and directed by Paul Raschid, one of the most prolific interactive filmmakers, The Gallery is a thrilling combination of hostage thriller and social drama with a dash of world film festival cinema aesthetic. Two Decades. Two identities. It’s going to take everything you’ve got to survive the night. 

The Gallery has been created to engage both film fans and gamers with its blend of high production values, stellar cast and a nuanced script depicting the film’s two time periods – 1981 and 2021 – both of which are of considerable political, social and cultural significance in UK history.

The cinema version lasts around 140 minutes with a screening of both time periods or 70 minutes with a screening of one time period.

The cinema screening takes place with a Facilitator “playing” The Gallery on a lap-top. As the audience enters, they are given “Glowsticks” which they use to vote for their choices. The Facilitator pauses the film for 2-3 seconds at each decision point. The majority choice of the audience as indicated by the “Glowsticks” prevails and the film continues.

Watch the trailer for The Gallery here

The Gallery cast includes George Blagden (Louis XIV in Versailles and Athelstan in Vikings), Anna Popplewell (Susan Pevensie in Disney’s Narnia franchise), Kara Tointon (Mr. Selfridge and Eastenders); Rebecca Root (The Queen’s Gambit); Richard Fleeshman (The Sandman and Coronation Street), Shannon Tarbet (Killing Eve and Love Sarah) and Fehinti Balogun (I May Destroy You).

“The Gallery” has secured universally positive reviews at its film festival appearances. Following its world premiere as part of the “Cinema – Past, Present and Future” section at Dinard 2022, “The Gallery” was the opening night film at the British Film Week at Le Grand Logis, Bruz near Rennes in January. The Rennes screening was attended by 250+ high school students aged 16-18 who engaged enthusiastically with the interactive film concept and gave a huge ovation at the end of the screening.

The film was also screened at the Cine O’clock Festival in Lyon in February and had its UK premiere at the Independent Directions (INDIs) Festival in Leeds on 22nd February 2023.

The hit indie roguelike’s celebratory DLC brings fans back to Castlevania for a revamped tribute experience

Bordeaux, France (March 6, 2023) – The latest Dead Cells adventure from Motion Twin and Evil Empire has finally arrived: explore the world that inspired the hit indie roguelike in a world-shattering collaboration today with Dead Cells: Return to Castlevania. The ambitious DLC, which adds numerous new weapons, enemies and three deadly bosses – all in a bombastic and unprecedented Castlevania mashup – is available today for $9.99 on PC, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S and the Nintendo Switch: https://store.steampowered.com/app/2101430/Dead_Cells_Return_to_Castlevania/

Take your first steps into Dracula’s Castle:

Today’s incredible launch trailer does not hold back: proudly showcasing the variety and attention to detail that the Evil Empire devs put into the stunning gothic environments of Dracula’s Castle. Each corridor, bridge and balcony from Castlevania has been painstakingly recreated in the gorgeous signature art style of Dead Cells. Play as 20 (…yes, 20!) iconic characters in Return to Castlevania, including Castlevania legends Richter Belmont and Alucard, and wield 14 brand-new weapons as you take on Dracula, Medusa and Death himself. Return to Castlevania is a massive love letter to the franchise that inspired Dead Cells, and hosts the most insane boss fight yet – catch a glimpse of what awaits when you finally meet Dracula Beast Form in a no-holds-barred, all-out, batshit boss fight. Best of luck. 

But don’t fret: that sweet, sweet loot will help unlock new abilities to take on the various new challenges waiting for you. And of course, no Dead Cells DLC would be complete without the addition of a new pet: today’s trailer also introduces Maria Renard’s cat, which can be found …somewhere… in the castle ready to shred your foes to death with her surprisingly powerful claws. With this power at your fingertips (or hanging out on your shoulder), the minions of Dracula will be dead before you can say “wall meat.” And yes, you can pet the cat.

Revealing the many secrets hidden in Dracula’s Castle requires luck, skill and patience – keep your eyes peeled for the many Castlevania easter eggs that lie in wait. Extra secrets are hidden in the Castle, including the massive nostalgia bomb of Richter Mode: stashed away in the gloomy halls, this unlockable mode will let players relive their experience in Castlevania: Symphony of the Night, complete with a moveset inspired by the title that includes all of Richter’s original, iconic attacks. 

Finally, behind all of that content is a soundtrack of 51 original Castlevania songs that can be played anywhere in the game, plus 12 of the most famous tracks re-made in the style of Dead Cells for the DLC levels. 

The largest and most ambitious DLC to date for the 8mm+ selling roguelite, Dead Cells: Return to Castlevania hosts the ultimate culmination of challenges, detail and surprises spanning the entirety of Dead Cells’ development, and it is available to fans around the world today from developers Evil Empire and Motion Twin.
