AALBORG, Denmark — Sept. 16, 2022 — Phantom Fury, a road movie-inspired first-person shooter starring Ion Fury’s Shelly “Bombshell” Harrison developed by Slipgate Ironworks and published by 3D Realms, debuted today at Realms Deep 2022. Join Shelly on her next action-packed adventure on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch, and PC in 2023.

Years after Shelly’s fight against Jadus Heskel, an old colleague rouses her from a coma. She awakens with a bionic arm capable of incredible feats and a new mission: track down the dangerous Demon Core, an artifact capable of unprecedented destruction before villains get their hands on it.

Set off on an adrenaline-amped adventure across the USA to battle menacing soldiers, vicious cyborgs, vile mutants, and challenging bosses. Blast through enemies in satisfying skirmishes in seedy Albuquerque hotels, explore abandoned facilities in Los Alamos, defend the streets of Chicago, and delve into more sinister locations on her journey.

Phantom Fury’s world features an incredible amount of interactivity. Pilot helicopters, solve environmental puzzles, hack into fully usable computers, play arcade machines and air hockey, and much more — if you see it, you can probably play with it. Each mission comes with surprising ways to interact and creatively circumvent obstacles.

Shelly’s predisposition for powerful weapons requires an awesome arsenal, and Slipgate Ironworks delivers. Wield more than 20 weapons, from her trusty Loverboy revolver and Bowling Bombs to new equipment like armor-piercing shotguns, electrified foam shooting devices, and controllable drones. Upgrade armaments with mods like new fire functions to unleash hell. Unlock new abilities for Shelly’s nifty new arm like punch attacks and electric shields to overcome challenges on the way to the Demon Core.

“We’ve been quietly working on Phantom Fury in hopes of really surprising everyone at Realms Deep,” said Frederik Schreiber, CEO at Slipgate Ironworks and 3D Realms. “This was a game we wanted to make for almost a decade, and It feels awesome to finally show it to everyone. We know you’ll love going on this explosive road trip next year.”

Phantom Fury will be available on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch, and PC in 2023. Follow 3D Realms on Twitch, Facebook, and YouTube, or join the Discord for up-to-date information.

AFTER THE FALL®: RECLAMATION UPDATE BLASTS ITS WAY TO ALL MAJOR VR PLATFORMS

The co-op action FPS continues to be supported with world-expanding content 

Sydney, Australia – September 16, 2022 – Vertigo Games, the VR specialist publishing and development arm of PLAION, have today launched the world-expanding content update ‘Reclamation’ for their VR action FPS After the Fall. Critically acclaimed for its cutting-edge multiplayer co-op action, After the Fall continues to grow its player base since launch in December 2021, with over 55K monthly active players as of late. The Reclamation update brings two new maps for worldbuilding, expanded arsenal and modes, new enemies, and several gameplay updates. It’s now available for free to all owners of the game on Meta Quest 2, PSVR, PC VR, Pico and iQIYI. Vertigo Games released an action-packed trailer to showcase the new content. 

The ‘Reclamation’ update has players take back the Snowbreed-infested LA in ‘Downtown’, a new Harvest map, and ‘The Mall’, the largest Horde Mode map to date. With two new enemies and a unique final encounter in ‘Downtown’ that has players fight off sprawl to survive, they need all the armoury they can get. The weapon arsenal has been expanded with the fast-firing ‘Auto-Shotgun’ and the experimental combat device ‘Sawblade’, which shoots bouncing blades that deal insanely high damage. The new enemies spotted roaming through LA are The Gunner, who has an LMG permanently rooted to his arm, and The Charger, a Snowbreed that rushes towards players before doing explosive amounts of damage in a large radius. The ‘Reclamation’ update also adds 17 unique skins to players, as well as multiple Quality of Life updates. Moving forward, Vertigo Games plans to keep expanding and further improving the world of After the Fall for all its players. 

With intense 4-player co-op and crossplay at its core, After the Fall offers action-packed co-op gameplay, built from the ground up for VR.  Starting out in a shared space with up to 32 other players across all platforms, players venture out into the remains of post-apocalyptic LA in squads of four, wielding weapons with real-life movements. To stay ahead of their enemies, players scavenge the undead-infested VR world, with new discoveries lurking around every corner. When they’re ready, the competitive Tundradome PvP arena and endless hordes in Horde mode awaits them.

Developed by Vertigo Studios (Arizona Sunshine) and published by Vertigo Games, After the Fall available on Quest 2, PlayStation VR, Steam, Pico and iQIYI for an SRP of $54,95, with a Deluxe Edition on PlayStation VR and Steam for an SRP of $69,95.

Introducing the Community Series

Plus New Deathmatches, an Extensive Update for the Job Creator, the Winner of the Sprunk vs. eCola Showdown, and More

The new Community Series celebrates the talented creators of the GTA Online community with a curated playlist of superbly constructed Jobs. Now available to launch from Legion Square, the first iteration of the Series features seven high-octane Races from skilled players such as ShelbyGR, EnigmaT1m, and more.

Expect to see new Jobs periodically cycled in and out of the Series in the coming months as we highlight more of our favorite player-made creations. If you’ve created something special you believe to be worthy of the Community Series spotlight, tag it with #CommunitySeries on Social Club and Twitter — with a link to the Job so we can check it out.

The Community Series launches with 2X GTA$ and RP all week long plus a lump sum bonus of GTA$200,000 just for participating in any 3 Community Series Jobs. Power slide into the corona at Legion Square, launch via your map, or fire up any of these Races from the Quick Join menu to get involved:

Little Seoul Raceway by EnigmaT1m

Deathmatch Creator Update 

Starting today, players can use the Deathmatch Creator to build out tons of new game types and modes with a slew of additions to the tool. The Deathmatch Creator Tutorial has been updated to guide you through the new additions, which include customization and modification options to define player inventories, alter team balancing, control starting health, hide player blips, change movement speeds and much, much more. You can even use new Modifier Sets to shrink play areas over time and gain health or other items as you score a kill.

To showcase what these new tools are capable of, we’ve published six new Deathmatches made using the updated Creator, now playable in-game:

Big Shot: You’ve got just one gun, one bullet, and one shot to kill your foes. Taking out an enemy will reward you with another bullet, but you can also scavenge from fallen fighters. The first team to reach the target score wins.

Speed Kills: Balance is crucial in this mode where the first team to reach the target score wins. One moves quickly while carrying slow-firing weapons; the other moves slowly but carry weapons with faster rates-of-fire.

Hot Swap: Racking up the highest score you can in a five-minute window sounds simple, but things can get complicated when the weapon in your hand keeps changing. Transferable skills have never been so important.

Dead Head: Take out your enemies to earn points — headshots earn bonus points. Precision is the key component.

Sumo Crush: This free-for-all Sumo variation is all about momentum: force your competition out of the area to score points. Last one standing wins.

Friendly Fire: This one’s simple, but with a twist: kill the enemies, and stop them from wiping out your team to earn points. Here’s the catch: killing your own teammates gives you a bonus. Can you wipe out the enemy team before they wipe out each other?

Announcing the Winner of the Sprunk vs. eCola Showdown

Well, the dust has settled, and the branding exercise of the century is over. It’s been a dog-eat-dog competition out there: red and green doing battle on the streets over the past month in the Sprunk vs. eCola showdown.

Diehard soda fans guzzled a ridiculous amount of cans, claimed millions of bodysuits, transformed their cars into speeding billboards, and raced to photo finishes in the Southern San Andreas Super Sport Series to prove their allegiance. But only one brand can come out on top.

Ultimately, eCola fans came out and showed up in greater numbers — proving this beverage is truly Deliciously Infectious! As a result, all players will receive the eCola Parachute Bag, eCola Jacket, and eCola Cap upon logging into GTA Online this week.Meanwhile, everyone who played GTA Online at any point during the Sprunk vs. eCola showdown will receive a GTA$300,000 bonus automatically wired to their Maze Bank account (delivered within 72 hours of logging in).

Premium Deluxe Motorsport Showroom

The Sprunk vs. eCola showdown may be over, but you can still visit Simeon’s showroom this week and peruse a selection of themed vehicles sourced in a totally legitimate and legal fashion:

• A Classic Garnet Red Dinka Veto Modern equipped with the eCola livery
• A Classic Red Vapid Peyote Gasser complete with the Blacktop Burner livery

Bonuses for Offloading Special Cargo

Academics and PhDs consider economics a “soft science,” but the market’s whims hit different in Los Santos. Case in point: is your Warehouse filled with valuable contraband? Don’t let it sit idly by gathering dust — offload it in Special Cargo Sell Missions.

Completing a Special Cargo Sale will earn you a special GTA$250k bonus, while completing 3 will get you an additional GTA$250K (bonuses delivered within 72 hours of completion). Plus, get a 50% discount this week on sourced cargo from Lupe. 

3X GTA$ and RP on Southern San Andreas Super Sport Series

Make the most of it by ensuring those sponsor decals are secured in place and heading to the starting line to earn your prize purse: all participants in the Southern San Andreas Super Sports Series will earn 3X GTA$ and RP until the end of this week.

Only on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S
