25 Years in the Making, Dreams Do Come True!

TUCSON, Ariz. – March 22, 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 lights up the PlayStation party with a two-for-one launch on Sony’s PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4 today.

For the first time, experience the current new offering of Running With Scissors’ POSTAL franchise on a Sony console. Bigger, bolder, and better than ever before, POSTAL 4 lets degenerates define their experience by choosing their identity, wardrobe, and voice – including performances by the iconic original Rick Hunter, Corey Cruise, Zack Ward, and the legendary Jon St. John. Suit up and step into a chaotic spin on the American Dream where poorly made decisions, comedic disasters, and more guns than a doomsday prepper could dream of are all par for the course.

Start a new life in the city of Edensin as the POSTAL Dude attempts to adjust to the 9-to-5 grind. Spend a week to achieve the American Dream in a surreal and ironic open-world sandbox setting where anything is possible. Take on challenging and eclectic gigs to earn cash, like moonlighting as a bidet installer, helping American citizens escape to Mexico to find work, and high-octane scooter racing. Approach open-ended errands and side missions creatively, opting to play as a Good Samaritan favoring pacifism, or use an over-the-top arsenal to deal with problems directly.

Conduct an orchestra of disorder with an imaginative armory of weapons and tools like the Dilbow (we’re not kidding) and the Fournicator (get your mind out of the gutter, it’s a four-barreled shotgun) boomerang machetes, cat-induced silencers, and much more. Immerse yourself in Edensin like never before thanks to DualSense-exclusive features empowering the POSTAL Dude to unzip his pants with a single swipe of the trackpad, and feel the kick of each weapon with tailored haptic feedback and adaptive trigger pulls, among other enhancements and improvements.

“The day is here after twenty-five years in the making. Today’s launch of POSTAL 4: No Regerts on PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4 marks the first time a mainline POSTAL game has graced Sony’s hardware and we couldn’t be happier,” said Vince Desi, founder of Running With Scissors. “Take a trip to Edinsin and experience true immersion like never before. After all, what other game gives you the ability to unzip your character’s fly with a simple swipe?”

POSTAL 4: No Regerts® is now available on PS5 and PS4 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.

Teams strategically utilize the different roles to work together to be the first to bank the most Wumpa fruit in their drop-off zone, while simultaneously defending their opponent team’s drop zone. Unique Relic Powers bring an additional strategic element to the game, which squadmates can use to gain the upper hand when scoring, leading their team to victory.

SHERMAN OAKS, Cali. – Mar. 17, 2023 – Toy Tactics, a family-friendly, physics-based RTS encompassing the history of warfare from developer Kraken Empire and publisher Joystick Ventures, creates a canvas of combat on PCs via Steam Early Access today.

Embrace creativity as both an artist and troop commander. Strategically sketch star, circle, or heart-shaped unit formations to turn the tide of battle, but any shape imaginable is viable.  Relive childlike bliss through tactical planning, toppling tons of mass-produced rival toy armies. Charge into battle with either the Imperium, Pendragon, or Kyoukai armies, each with their own special powers based on their real-world counterparts.

Unleash summoning spells varying from healing units back from the brink of death, to raining down Jenga-like cinder block walls. Watch plastic pieces of each enemy bounce across the sandbox in silly slapstick fashion to reminisce of the good ol’ days on the playground.

“Die-hard RTS fans and first-time families are all welcome to draw toward victory in Toy Tactics,” said Ivan Carrillo, Managing Partner for Joystick Ventures. “Everyone on the team remembers their first RTS game.

Los Santos Drug Wars: The Last Dose Out Now – Help the Fooliganz Unravel a Psychedelic Conspiracy, Secure the New Ocelot Virtue Supercar, Tap Into a Massive Rewards Event, and More

The wild trip of Los Santos Drug Wars builds to its explosive finale in The Last Dose, with five new missions leading you, Dax, and the Fooliganz down an action-packed rabbit hole brimming with familiar faces, hired guns, sabotage, kidnapping, and more — all while fighting off the effects of some extremely potent psychedelics.

After unleashing a tide of mind-bending chemicals and calamities on the population of the greater Los Santos area in The First Dose, the troupe are now keen to get to the bottom of a budding pharmaceutical conspiracy in the culmination of this two-part story.

The Last Dose

Since joining up with the Fooliganz in The First Dose, you’ve helped Dax, Luchadora, Labrat, and the rest of this colorful crew wage war on the competition for control of the Southern San Andreas psychedelics trade — squeezing out rival operations through outright theft, eliminating those who would stand in your path, and even enjoying a little time in an altered state.

Now, in The Last Dose, the shadowy opposition is striking back, so it’ll be up to you to assist the Fooliganz in their quest to remain atop the illicit pharmaceutical food chain with five new missions that pick up right where things left off. Look for a call from Dax or visit The Freakshop to get going.

Those who have yet to take the plunge, meet up with Nervous Ron Jakowski at Liquor Ace in Blaine County to kick things off with the initial six missions in The First Dose. Along the way, you’ll gain access to The Freakshop as a base of operations, set up a mobile Acid Lab business, and distribute your product throughout Los Santos while undermining competitors.

As an added bonus, both The First Dose and The Last Dose are awarding 2X GTA$ and RP through March 29 to those ready and willing to get weird across the whole collection of new story missions in Los Santos Drug Wars.

This is an Intervention

Head to the Fooliganz’ annual meet-up to get back into the swing of things. Surely nothing could sour the mood. It’s always a good idea to bring snacks to a party, but you may as well come fully equipped with body armor and automatic weapons too.

Unusual Suspects

Dax isn’t the type to allow the abduction of one of his own slide — let The Lost and their hippie allies know this aggression will not stand and learn what you can about Labrat’s captors along the way. Intimidation is always necessary in this kind of business, but be careful you don’t kill the gang leaders who might be able to give you some answers.

FriedMind

Storm the FriedMind Pharmaceuticals HQ to gather clues, rescue the missing members of the troupe, and return them safely to The Freakshop. The stealthy approach could be the smart way of getting in and out without raising the alarm but keep your head on a swivel and check your corners — it only takes one guard with a shotgun to end you.

Checking In

Pay a visit to the local rehab facility that’s running trials using Labrat’s stolen recipe. Be careful, or you might end up becoming a test subject. Protecting Dax and Luchadora should be your top priority when heading into the maelstrom, so lead the charge and remove as much resistance as you can. The troupe relies on you, Fresh Meat.

BDKD

Add final insult to injury by clearing out your competition’s remaining supply and stomping them out of existence in the process. That’s the Fooliganz way. There’ll be no stopping Dax from attempting to procure every bit of product he can get his hands on. Be ready to keep a lot of heat off his back when the time comes and make use of every bit of cover you can find.

The Doctor Is In

A well-known Los Santos psychotherapist whose troubled client base includes Michael De Santa in Grand Theft Auto V, Dr. Isiah Friedlander is always looking to boost his profile, and his bank account.

Intimately familiar with the efficacy and popularity of psychoactive substances — and no longer content with leaving money on the table — he’s now decided to get in the drug game himself as FriedMind Pharmaceuticals. But while his company carries a lot of name-brand cache, his product just does not compare with the stuff you can get on the street.

Friedlander will stop at nothing to gain the competitive advantage — kidnapping, dosing, hiring mercenaries to do his dirty work. It’s up to you to stop him.

The Brand-New Ocelot Virtue Supercar

Ego meets eco with the all-new Ocelot Virtue (Super), an all-electric hypercar that comes track-steady and city ready, so you can show off your climate awareness and your tax exile status from behind the same wheel.

Intrepid trippers will earn Friedlander’s personal Virtue with a FriedMind livery for free by completing all the new missions in The Last Dose. The Virtue is also eligible for Imani Tech upgrades from the Agency Vehicle Workshop to safeguard it from potential peril.

GTA+ Members can pick up the Ocelot Virtue now at Legendary Motorsport.

The Willard Eudora: Available for a Limited Time

Once upon a time, we had so much hope. We thought humans would live on Mars, and everyone would have a robot best friend. Well, none of that happened, and all our dreams of excellence were dashed … except one.

Introducing the Willard Eudora Muscle Car. The shining hope of the Jet Age. Available from Southern San Andreas Super Autos or Simeon’s Premium Deluxe Motorsport showroom, but only through March 29.

New Cardigans and Wide Designer Jeans

Update your wardrobe by shopping for new Branded Cardigans and Wide Pants, available in the Tops and Designer Jeans sections of retail establishments citywide, respectively.

The Last Dose Rewards

The psychedelic warfare and general drug-related pursuits spanning across Los Santos Drug Wars — and culminating with the launch of The Last Dose — will have lasting effects on the population of San Andreas for generations to come. Some of the more immediate consequences are a collection of rare clothing and accessories for helping Dax solve the mystery haunting all his most intense trips, all in celebration of today’s release of The Last Dose:

Earn The Last Dose rewards now through March 29. Gifts will be delivered within 10 days of completion.

1.5X GTA$ and RP on Fooligan Jobs

Defend the Fooliganz’ honor across Los Santos and reap an extra 50% GTA$ and RP by contacting Dax and sabotaging the troupe’s rivals, committing theft, poisoning the local water supply, and more by completing Fooligan Jobs throughout the week.

Double Supplies on Acid Lab Resupply Missions

The local population’s appetite for psychoactive drugs is ravenous: Keep pace with demand by completing Acid Lab Resupply Missions — you’ll earn double the Supplies over the next seven days.

Meanwhile, Mutt can hear the customers’ screams for more — sometimes literally. As a result, he’ll keep your operation humming along at 1.5X the usual Acid Production Speed. Lining up trick shots when delivering your product is optional, but always encouraged.

Premium Deluxe Motorsport Showroom

Stroll through the Premium Deluxe Motorsport exhibition space to get a closer look at this week’s selections — including the new Willard Eudora (Muscle), available for a limited time only. Take them for a trial run around the block, or buy directly from Simeon.

• Willard Eudora (Muscle)
