Private Division and Roll7 Announce Rollerdrome

Third-person shooter melds high-octane combat with adrenaline-fueled skate stunts for a truly unique retro-futuristic action experience! Coming to PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, and PC on August 16

Private Division and Roll7 today announced that Rollerdrome will launch on August 16, 2022 for digital download on PlayStation®4, PlayStation®5 system and on PC (Steam). In this single-player, third-person shooter, players experience the thrill of fusing fluid movements and stylish tricking mechanics with adrenaline-pumping shooter action. This wildly imaginative shooter-skater hybrid game is set in a darkly dystopian retrofuture and is being developed by Roll7, the creators of the critically acclaimed OlliOlli World and masterminds of flow state gaming.

Rollerdrome introduces a distinct retro-futuristic universe with a unique identity. The comic-book inspired art style comes to life with an all-new and fully original soundtrack. The Darksynth musical artist Electric Dragon merges iconic 1970’s textures and sounds with modern day driving beats and cutting-edge production to provide a heart-thumping backdrop to the carnage.

The game is set in 2030, in a world where the public are kept distracted from an increasingly sinister political situation by the violence and excess of a brutal new arena sport: Rollerdrome. The lines between reality and performance in this bloodsport are blurred, with participants chosen to compete in a series of gauntlets against the deadly House Players. Competitors in this vicious spectacle attempt to achieve the highest score possible by combining eliminations with flashy tricks while also successfully completing numerous challenges.

Players step into the roller skates of Kara Hassan, a newcomer to this brutal sport. As the mysteries of a wicked tech giant unfold behind the scenes, Kara and the player will have to stay focused on their goal – climbing the ranks in hopes of becoming the next Rollerdrome champion.

“It’s been amazing to see this project come to life from the original prototype that received a lot of love online, all the way to the brutal and intense experience it is now – thanks to the amazing work of the team at Roll7″ says Paul Rabbitte, Creative Director at Roll7. “We’re really excited for players to jump into Rollerdrome.”

“Roll7 have proven that they successfully come up with truly innovative games that combine original gameplay with an outstanding art style,” said Michael Worosz, Chief Strategy Officer, Take-Two Interactive, and Head of Private Division. “Rollerdrome is another prime example of their innovative spirit as this talented group once again pushes the boundaries of movement with this wholly unique shooter experience.”

Rollerdrome is developed by Roll7, the BAFTA and multi-award-winning London based studio famous for re-defining genres and creating remarkable games like OlliOlli, OlliOlli 2: Welcome to Olliwood, OlliOlli World, Laser League,and NOT A HERO.

Rollerdrome will be available for digital download for $44.95* on August 16, 2022, on PlayStation®4, PlayStation®5 as well as PC (Steam). Rollerdrome is rated M for Mature by the ESRB.

LONDON (June 2, 2022) – During Sony’s State of Play earlier today, independent developer, Studio Sai, revealed a first look at their upcoming apocalyptic dating-action game debut, Eternights, coming to PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, and PC early next year.

A mysterious entity has infected humans, turning them into dangerous monsters obsessed with violence and power. As they stand between you, a cure, and the world you want, you must race against the clock to fight for your survival and for those you love. But with scavenging, dungeon crawling, and dating all on the to-do list, what will you do first? The choice is yours, but everything has a deadline, and the clock is ticking. 

In Eternights, players will encounter perilous dungeons steeped with mystery and danger, overcoming traps, puzzles and dancing mini-games to beat their deadlines and make it through on time. When not exploring dungeons, choose a confidant from a cast of five quirky and loveable characters. As you grow closer, explore their unique stories, and unlock new skills and spells to aid you in battle.

TOKOYO: The Tower of Perpetuity Climbs to Great Heights on Steam, Nintendo Switch

New level elements, final boss, ending, and modding features added after leaving Early Access

TOKYO – 2 June, 2022 — TOKOYO: The Tower of Perpetuity, the 2D roguelike action-platformer set in a regenerating tower developed by //commentout and published by PLAYISM, ascends from Steam Early Access into version 1.0 on PC and climbs onto Nintendo Switch today.

Five prisoners seek freedom from the ever-changing maze of the infernal Tower of Perpetuity. Start the ascension as one of these heroes, each with their own magical skill like screen-clearing blasts or spinning knives to ward off hordes of foes, and use careful platforming while the skill recharges. Skillfully dodge each boss’s bullet-hell attacks by strategically using the platforms to avoid their attack patterns and strike when their shields drop.

The tower refreshes with a brand new layout every 24 hours, with all climbers worldwide tackling the same procedurally-generated tower. Discover branching paths each run by praying to one god or another, and find the best approach to the top. After every completed level and defeated boss, find ranks of daily challengers who haven’t let their characters die in the ascending labyrinth. Both Nintendo Switch and Steam players around the world share the same online leaderboards, competing for the undisputed crown each day.

Those who fail have the choice to resurrect using a candy if they fall on the way up or leave a message of hope, encouragement, or utter fury for the next challenger to read during their climb on the online server. Aim to rank high on the leaderboard before the end of the day and start from zero, again, the next day, forever. Those who played in Early Access should return to the tower, fight a new final boss, and discover a new ending, also in the Switch version.

Version 1.0 on PC and Nintendo Switch features the debut of official playable custom characters, featuring their own unique custom art, animation, dialogue, and cutscenes. Play as collaboration characters such as the Diane the Mighty Goose Cosplayer, designed by Mighty Goose developer Richard Lems of Blastmode Games. His custom character adorns the climber with a goose-shaped hat and turns her into a honking Thanksgiving centerpiece turkey upon failure. Also available at launch is a creation by the multitalented and popular illustrator, graphics designer, and VTuber Sedeto

Steam players can create their own unique characters to integrate into the game. Apart from official custom characters, many Japanese illustrators and artists have produced amazing artwork for the game, which will be displayed in a random order during loading screens for all to enjoy.

“We’re lining up many great collaborations for custom skins and can’t wait to see what everyone makes now that TOKOYO: The Tower of Perpetuity graduated from Early Access,” said saebashi, Founder, //commentout. “Building this tower was a huge effort and I can’t wait for Switch players to make their first climb to the top!”

TOKOYO: The Tower of Perpetuity is availablefor $11.99, on Steam for PC and Nintendo Switch with support for English, Japanese, and Simplified Chinese text.

Merge Dragons! Doubles Its Customizable Play Area With Expansive New “Arcadia” Map

Players Can Now Expand Their Field of Play and Unlock New Powers in Gram Games’ Popular Puzzle Adventure

SAN FRANCISCO – June 2, 2022 – Today, Zynga Inc., a global leader in interactive entertainment, announced that the hit puzzle adventure from Gram Games, Merge Dragons!, has launched Arcadia, a new permanent map for players to explore and make their own. The mysterious new realm essentially doubles the game’s customizable play area, empowering players to discover new relics and unlock brand new items and rewards.

In Merge Dragons! players hatch and nurture dragons who use their powers to heal mystical land and recharge their energy in their Dragon Camp home base. With this new update, players can now uncover Arcadia and its secrets. Arcadia’s map is as big as the original Camp and is similarly shrouded in fog, which players will need to lift in order to reach new areas. As players progress through the premium area, they will discover rewards and items, including exclusive relic chains specially designed for different dragon breeds.

Arcadia can be accessed through the Beacon in players’ Dragon Camp, which is unlocked once players have reached 2,000 Dragon Power. The Beacon will then reveal the new fog-covered map, which players can clear as they increase their Arcane Levels by obtaining Arcane Chests.

Merge Dragons! continues to thrive by building on the innovative puzzle mechanic it introduced to mobile gamers while further immersing players and their dragons in the game world,” said Eren Yanik, Chief Product Officer at Gram Games. “The new Arcadia map symbolizes our goal to keep evolving the Merge world and introduce new design-forward features that expand the in-game experience.”
