Classic game updated with one thousand officers and new features

Hertfordshire, 12^th October 2023 – Today, KOEI TECMO Europe and developer Kou Shibusawa introduced a variety of new features and enhancements to their recently announced strategy game, Romance of the Three Kingdoms 8 Remake, including new officers, scenarios, visuals, voices, and more. Kou Shibusawa’s tactical military simulation is currently under development and will be available digitally in Early 2024 on Nintendo Switch™, PlayStation®5, PlayStation®4, and Windows PC via Steam®.

Romance of the Three Kingdoms 8 Remake is based on Romance of the Three Kingdoms VIII with Power Up Kit, complete with both the “All Officers Play” and “All Periods Scenarios” features, as well as a host of new content to deliver the most complete Romance of the Three Kingdoms experience to date.

Among the new additions, the number of playable officers has been increased from approximately 600 to 1,000. With newly added officers and forces, players can discover new events and relationships between officers for an even more authentic experience. The “All Periods Scenarios” feature has also been updated to offer over 55 scenarios, including fictional ones, making it the largest number of scenarios available in the series history. From the end of the Eastern Han dynasty to the final age of the Three Kingdoms period, players can choose any officers and which period they’d like to play, creating numerous possible combinations for an experience unique to each player.

To enhance the Romance of the Three Kingdoms experience, new visuals and voices have been added. Combining 2D and 3D graphics, Romance of the Three Kingdoms 8 Remake retains the atmosphere of the original game while offering new visuals and illustrations. The game also features the largest number of voices in the series, with officers speaking to players in various situations, as well as animated movies with full voices depicting important events in beautifully rendered illustrations*.

The battlefield map has also been reworked, from a single 2D picture to a mix of 2D and 3D: battlefields are created using the latest 3D technology, while distant landscapes are rendered as ink paintings to create both powerful battles and an immersive experience.

Combat in Romance of the Three Kingdoms 8 Remake will remain turn-based, just like the original title, but will feature a completely restructured system, the result of Kou Shibusawa’s 20 years of know-how since the release of Romance of the Three Kingdoms VIII. While retaining the key features such as simple rules, a map that combines field and siege battles, and the use of terrain, the pace and balance of the game have been greatly improved. With the addition of new features such as “Link Forged”, players will discover an easy-to-play yet highly tactical combat experience. The events that colour the drama between the characters can be found in the new “Tales” feature. This feature will allow players to check the conditions, outcomes, and branching of different events, so they know how to trigger the ones they want or how to avoid them. The “Tales” feature will list not only historical events but also the general ones, thus guiding players during their game.

In addition to events involving different officers, they will be linked by fate, represented by the “Destiny” feature, which has two types: “Symbiotic” and “Antagonistic”. The first type will make it easier to get a good relationship with an officer, while with the second, the chances of a bad relationship developing will be greater. Depending on how players choose to progress, non-historically related characters can be linked by “Destiny”, and as relationships deepen, “Link Forged” will occur in battles and missions, providing significant benefits.

To help players easily keep track of the relationships and “Destiny” of the officer they play, a new “Relationship Chart” feature has been added. With this feature, players will be able to keep tabs on rivals, good friends or anyone deeply involved in their lives. By interacting and working with characters they are close to, players will obtain greater achievements and will contribute to the protagonist’s growth. As relationships deepen, it will lead to events that become turning points in their officer’s life, such as sworn siblings, marriage, and child rearing. The relationships that will appear in the “Relationship Chart” will not only be historical as they will change dynamically according to the direction players take in their game.

Memorize each incantation to quickly sling more than 20 different sorceries.

Battle through spacious environments including wind-swept canyons, a mirage-laden oasis, and the ethereal Centinel Woods.

BARCELONA, SPAIN – 12, Oct. 2023 – Terra Alia: The Language Discovery RPG, the mysterious and magical language-discovery RPG developed by 30 Parallel and publisher Boombox Games, embarks on a journey through a magical land today on Nintendo Switch.

In the world of Terra Alia, sorcery and technology go hand in hand. Yet some would prefer magic to stay in the hands of a select few. Study at one of the most prestigious magical academies under the tutelage of Professor Esperanto, a woman fighting for equal access to magic.

As she mysteriously vanishes, all that remains is her trusty battle-programmed robot falcon Falco and a piece of an enchanted stone with an encoded message. Embark on an adventure to retrieve the five remaining pieces of the stone to rescue the Professor. 

Choose a native tongue and cast powerful spells against enemies in dynamic turn-based combat. Upgrade spells and harness new abilities while also taking on enthralling side stories, conquering perplexing puzzles, and battling foes ranging from angry students to divine deities and corrupt robots.

Become a master linguist by watching the adventure unfold across 10 different languages including American English, French, Italian, German, Spanish – Spain, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese – Brazil, Russian, and Simplified Chinese. Complete the story in one language within 6-8 hours or see how Professor Esperanto’s search ends across all 10 languages in 50-60 hours of gameplay.

Follow five underprivileged teens on a quest courtesy of a 24-page comic from award-winning author Sylvain Runberg (best-known for his adaptation of Stieg Larsson’s Millennium series read by more than a million avid comic readers). Launching later this year, witness the story expand beyond the disappearance of Professor Esperanto and into new corners of the world.. 

“Whether at home or on the go, there’s always something new to discover,” said Philippe Erwin, CEO, 30 Parallel. “Launching Terra Alia on the Nintendo Switch opens more doors for players to become familiar with new languages in fun and invigorating ways.” 

Terra Alia: The Language Discovery RPG launches today on Nintendo Switch for $14.99 USD, and is also available now on Steam.

NEW YORK — Oct. 11, 2023 —LUCID, the action platformer developed by The Matte Black Studio and published by Apogee Entertainment (Turbo Overkill, Duke Nukem, Prey, Max Payne) warps 207% past funding goals and perfectly times a jump onto Steam for PC, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch in 2025.

The Great Fall has sent the world of Aeydn into a state of dissonance. The Celestial Serpent, Troika has unexpectedly struck the towering Crystal Giant, shattering its heart into shards strewn across the land. Rebuild the Giant’s heart and restore harmony as Oenn in a pixel art precision platforming love letter to the 16-bit era that is as fresh as it is nostalgic, with an original soundtrack featuring multiple tracks by the legendary composer David Wise (Donkey Kong Country, Super Smash Bros. Melee).

Traverse an interconnected open world bursting with color. Uncover mysteries across the glimmering Crystal Caverns, descend into the depths of Welltown, and forge a path through the snow-covered Onyx Ridge. Jump, dash and slash through obstacles, and chain together maneuvers to reach hidden pathways between worlds full of treasures and secrets. 

Enter a flow-state with tight controls, fluid movement mechanics, and Crystal Arts that both enhance combat and extend movement. Unleash the Crystal Axe for heavy-hitting attacks, or close the gap against far away enemies with an aerial-dash. Focus on a pair of abilities, or hot-swap Crystal Arts on the fly to open up Oenn’s full arsenal. 

Craft a custom playstyle by equipping stat-altering Talismans, and upgrade abilities across an expansive skill tree for the perfect bespoke build. Transform special moves into full-blown superpowers by anointing Oenn’s abilities with bonus effects, and utilize every skill gained against epic beasts in skill-testing boss battles.

Encounter a vibrant cast of characters who seek Oenn’s aid. Speak to local villagers for guidance, bond with the last remaining Sentinels in the Petrified Forest, and restore hope to the downtrodden folk of Beacon City.

About Apogee Entertainment

Apogee is featured in John Romero’s new book, Doom Guy, along with Masters of Doom, the new FPS documentary, the book Shareware Heroes (2022 release), and many others – because Apogee was a critical player in the rise of the PC gaming, essentially creating the indie scene.

Apogee also funded, produced and published Id Software’s Wolfenstein 3D, the first ever FPS game, and also created pioneering games like Duke Nukem 3D, numerous Duke console games, Prey, Shadow Warrior, Rise of the Triad, and co-owned/co-created Max Payne 1 & 2. These games all earned over $1.5 billion commercially. (Apogee used the “3D Realms” label for many of these releases, but the company was always Apogee.)

The recently renamed Apogee Entertainment, with original founder Scott Miller still at the helm, continues to empower today’s incredibly talented indie developers. Current hit releases include Turbo Overkill and Bread & Fred, along with 10 other games currently in development.
