The first season of Siege’s Year 8, Operation Commanding Force brings a Brazilian Operator

Sydney, Australia — February 20, 2023 — Today, Ubisoftrevealed the first season of Rainbow Six Siege’s Year 8, Operation Commanding Force. This season introduces Brava, a new Brazilian Operator, and important gameplay updates including an immersive reload update, the Mousetrap feature to address players using mouse and keyboard on consoles, and further anti-toxicity measures.

Commanding Force unleashes Brava, an invaluable new Attacker equipped with the Kludge Drone gadget. This drone disrupts hostile surveillance and provides counter tactics, like repurposing the technology for her squad. An extremely adaptable Operator, Brava can gain an advantage in any environment by accessing electronic resources available to her. Brava is a three speed, one health Operator, and her loadout features a PARA-308 or a CAMRS as a primary weapon and a USP40 or a Super Shorty as a secondary weapon.

Important gameplay updates such as Mousetrap arrive in Year 8 Season 1 that further player protection improvements. Players who use mouse and keyboard on consoles will activate a penalty that adds lag to their inputs. The goal of this penalty is to encourage fair gameplay by removing the unfair advantage that mouse and keyboard players have on consoles. While active, continued use of mouse and keyboard gradually increases the lag over several matches, making it harder to aim and shoot. Completing matches with a controller will gradually reduce the lag back to normal.

Further anti-toxicity measures include a new Reputation Penalty for abusive voice chat. While active, this penalty mutes repeat offenders by default to prevent hateful and disruptive content in voice chat. Muted players can still use voice chat but will only be heard by players who unmute them.

In Year 8, Rainbow Six Siege is focused on solidifying its position as a high-intensity tactical shooter where purposeful action, precision, and creative tactics are the keys to success. In Commanding Force brings a balancing update to Zero, improvements to the Play Section UI, balancing change on weapon attachments, and a new immersive reload system: interrupting the animation will leave the player without a magazine, but closed bolt weapons will have a single round for the player to use at any point during the reload.

Also, new onboarding features arrive this season to assist new players in learning Rainbow Six Siege: Beginner Challenges and Specialty Challenges. Beginner Challenges identify an Operator’s playstyle in-game. All Operators have one to two specialties which can be checked during the Planning Phase, in the Operators section, and in Operator Guides. Specialty Challenges aim to help beginner players learn the various Operator specialties and what they contribute to a match. By completing challenges, players can earn a variety of rewards, including an Operator after finishing all challenges for a single specialty. If the Operator is already owned, players will earn their value in renown instead. All players can be complete the challenges and earn all rewards, not just beginners.

Season 1’s Battle Pass introduces the Bravo Pack Ticket, a rare item that lets you pick an exclusive reward from the latest Bravo Collection. This ticket will be awarded to Premium players who reach level 100 in this season’s Battle Pass as a reward for their dedication.

Rainbow Six Siege is now available to play on PlayStation^®4, PlayStation^®5, the Xbox One family of consoles, Xbox Series X | S, Windows PC, including on Ubisoft+, Ubisoft’s subscription service*, and Amazon Luna.

About Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Siege

Heather Hazen named Studio Head; Next mainline game in the world-famous Sid Meier’s Civilization franchise in development

Sydney, Australia – February 20, 2023 – 2K has announced that industry veteran and Firaxis Games Chief Operating Officer, Heather Hazen, has been promoted to Studio Head, ushering in a new era of development at the legendary interactive entertainment studio behind Sid Meier’s Civilization, XCOM, and the recently-released and critically-acclaimed Marvel’s Midnight Suns.

As Studio Head, Hazen will manage Firaxis Games’ development teams and lead its mission to build the best strategy games on the planet.  With 22 years of experience in gaming and entertainment, Hazen joined Firaxis Games in 2020 as the studio’s Chief Operating Officer.  Prior to Firaxis Games, she was an Executive Producer on Fortnite at Epic Games, as well as Plants vs. Zombies and Bejeweled while at PopCap Games.  Hazen’s promotion comes as longtime Firaxis Studio Head, Steve Martin, will be leaving the studio after more than 25 years with the organization.

“We are excited to welcome Heather Hazen as the new Studio Head of Firaxis Games, and believe she will continue to drive the success Firaxis has consistently delivered as part of 2K’s independent studio model,” said David Ismailer, President of 2K.  “2K and Firaxis Games are deeply grateful for the foundation that Steve Martin set during his time at the studio, shepherding more than 30 game launches across three genre-defining franchises, and for ensuring a smooth transition for Heather into her new role.  Firaxis is one of our company and industry’s most renowned studios, and we are confident that the team will continue to do great things under her leadership.”

“I’m thrilled to have this opportunity to carry on the studio’s storied legacy, beginning with the announcement that Firaxis is in development on the next iteration of the legendary Civilization franchise,” said Hazen. “I’m lucky to be working with some of the best developers in our industry, and we have plans to take the Civilization franchise to exciting new heights for our millions of players around the world.  In addition, we will continue to support Marvel’s Midnight Suns with post-launch content, and explore new creative projects for our teams.”

Ed Beach will continue in his role as Creative Director on the forthcoming Civilization.  Beach has been an integral part of the development of Civilization titles for more than 15 years, and most recently led the design of Civilization VI, the best-selling Civilization game to-date.  The Civilization franchise is one of gaming’s most definitive and decorated franchises, with more than 65 million copies sold to-date.

In addition, Jake Solomon, former Creative Director of the XCOM franchise and Marvel’s Midnight Suns, will be departing the studio.  Solomon leaves after over two decades at Firaxis Games, and was instrumental in revitalizing the tactical turn-based genre with the releases of XCOM: Enemy Unknown, XCOM 2, and Marvel’s Midnight Suns.

“I’m embarking on a new chapter; however, I am incredibly grateful to have had the opportunity to fulfill my dreams at Firaxis Games,” said Solomon.  “I’m thankful to everyone who enjoyed XCOM and Marvel’s Midnight Suns, and to my development and publishing partners who helped bring those games to life.”

“Jake revolutionized tactical turn-based games and continually raised the bar for storytelling in the strategy genre,” added Ismailer. “We have deep appreciation for his work and can’t wait to see what he does next.”

Players of all ages can race as fan favourite characters from the number 1 preschool Dinosaur TV series, Gigantosaurus, with four person multiplayer.

Friday, February 17th, 2023: Outright Games, the leading publisher of family-friendly interactive entertainment, in partnership with Cyber Group Studios, a leading producer and distributor of animated series for children and families worldwide, are pleased to announce the release of Gigantosaurus: Dino Karttoday. The first ever kart racing game in the Gigantosaurus franchise, is now available on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X and PC.

This brand new Gigantosaurus experience offers hours of story content and allows players to compete as eight different playable characters from the hit TV series including fan favourites, Bill, Mazu, Rocky and Tiny. Play solo or against family and friends with up to four person split-screen multiplayer across fifteen tracks through the land of Cretacia.

Gigantosaurus: Dino Kart puts players in the driver seat as they traversethrough three different environments in the Savannah, Jungle, and Mount Oblivion Cups, picking up special skills to help you win the race, including “Giganto’s Roar” – a sound that will slow down all opponents within a certain range.  Players who dino-soar through the finish lines can take on “Jetpack” tracks that allow for unique and fun layouts to test their abilities.

Taking inspiration from the well-received racing segments of the previous game Gigantosaurus: The Game and the season 1, episode 14 “Racing Giganto” of the Gigantosaurus series, developer 3DClouds expanded the concept into a game format, with playable characters, skills and natural obstacles to provide an element of unpredictability within the tracks. Designed with the whole family in mind, the game features 3 levels of difficulty for different age ranges and three playable modes, including “play with friends” which features up to 4 players couch co-op, guaranteeing fun for the whole family. Even the littlest players are accounted for with instant race mode which randomly selects a character and track, auto-steering and auto accelerating karts and on-screen text tips read aloud by Mazu the brainy Ankylosaurus, making it perfect for the whole family to enjoy. Each character additionally has its own unique vehicle skins, allowing you to pick your favourites before you race.

Gigantosaurus: Dino Kart is based on the successful animated TV series Gigantosaurus, currently streaming worldwide on Disney+ and Netflix and airing internationally on major channels such as Disney Junior (worldwide), France Télévisions, POP (UK), Super RTL (Germany), RAI yoyo (Italy), RTVE – Clan (Spain), CCTV (China), TV Azteca (Mexico) and NHK (Japan). Produced by Cyber Group Studios, the series now counting 3 seasons of 52-episodes x 11 minutes each, is based on Jonny Duddle’s book published by Bonnier Books UK Ltd, which has sold over 600,000 copies worldwide. The animated series follows the adventures of four young dinos – Rocky, Bill, Tiny, and Mazu – as they go on quests to explore their world, face their fears, work together to solve problems, learn more about the mysterious Gigantosaurus himself – and have lots of fun all along the way. 

Nick Ricks, Head of Games at Outright Games said, ‘We’re thrilled to celebrate the release of our second Gigantosaurus collaboration – Gigantosarus: Dino Kart – with our friends at Cyber Group Studios. We wanted to build on the well-received racing segments from Gigantosaurus: The Game, as well as adding accessibility features for the brand’s first kart racer. With the inclusion of auto steering karts, instant race mode and racing tips that can be read from the screen or heard via VO, we have ensured the game is fully accessible to the brands core target audience and will provide a suitable challenge for players of all ages. With the individualised karts and power-ups, tailored to each distinctive character, fans can enjoy a whole new immersive way to experience the world of Gigantosaurus.’

Dominique Bourse Chairman and CEO and Thierry Braille, Vice President Interactive and Videogame Division at Cyber Group Studios said, ‘It has been a wonderful experience working with Outright Games on a second Gigantosaurus game. For us it is crucial to work with a partner who fully understands the Gigantosaurus brand, from knowing the age range of the audience and building suitable game mechanics for said audience. Together we have also been able to successfully translate the animated series into a game format, from a faithful recreation of Cretacia and our integration of 8 characters from the show – including Gigantosaurus himself – fans will be able to engage with the brand in a whole new way.’

Alex de Nittis, Game Designer at 3DClouds said ‘As a developer, our background is very tied to creating arcade racing games, with Gigantosaurus: Dino Kart being our fifth kart racer collaboration with Outright Games, deliberately developed with pre-school players in mind. With every new project we are able to carry over our learnings from the previous one, allowing each game to become more ambitious and more importantly, include new and improved accessibility features. Not only have we continued our rigorous playtesting with children, to ensure the game functions for them, but we have expanded on functions to include completely new functions like auto acceleration, to further simplify the driving phase and allow even the youngest players to get to know the game at their own pace without missing out on the fun of the race.’
