Stealth Action Game Winter Ember Steps Out of the Shadows with Full Physical Comic Compilation Available Today

Stealth Action Game Winter Ember Steps Out of the Shadows with Full Physical Comic Compilation Available Today

SYDNEY – April 25, 2021 – Winter Ember, the isometric stealth sandbox action game from publisher Blowfish Studios and developer Sky Machine Studios, finalizes its own prequel graphic novel series in a full physical compilation. Thanks to an all-star writing and illustration team, in partnership with comic and manga publisher eigoMANGA. The eight-part story of the Artorious family’s downfall is available in a single collection.

Author Kevin Grevioux, renowned for his writing on a collection of Marvel and DC Comics stories like Amazing Spider-Man, Young Avengers, Cyborg, among others, as well as the creator of the Underworld and I-Frankenstein film franchises, sets the backdrop for Winter Ember’s epic stealth-narrative.

Chris Awayan, previously known for the Indestructible comic series, put pen to paper as the illustrator. Iconic cover art from Ben Herrera, best known for his work on Marvel Adventures, X-Men Adventures, and Batman: Arkham Knights, rounds out the team of industry luminaries. 

Anargal, a city of great power and promise, stands as a shadow of its former self after the events of the comic series. Trapped in the clutches of Greater Heaven, a religious faction feared for its military might, its zealous devotion to cleanse the world of its ultimate darkness brings cities to their knees. Arthur Artorious, a disgraced noble long thought dead, must take advantage of this to free Anargal from their controlling grip and exact his personal revenge. 

Winter Ember moved swiftly out of the murky night with its console and PC game release last week on Tuesday, April 19, 2022.

“With Winter Ember’s game out in the world, following that up with the physical launch of its prequel comic series so soon felt like the perfect way to celebrate the world of Anargal,” said Ben Lee, CEO, Blowfish Studios. “The story’s past, present, and future is yours to uncover. Make sure to leave no stone left unturned within the Winter Ember universe!”

The physical eight-part compilation Winter Ember prequel series is available now at local comic shops across the globe. Digital versions are also available now via Amazon Kindle, GlobalComix, Graphite Comics, and Comic Distro.

NEW ZEALAND — April 22, 2022 — Turbo Overkill, the hyper-fast-paced cyberpunk FPS published by Apogee Entertainment with a delicious mix of retro style and modern graphics, reimagines the golden years of impeccably designed shooters on Steam Early Access for PC today. Developer Trigger Happy Interactive takes aim at Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One versions for the 1.0 release later this year.

“To this day, the classic shooters I grew up on are still masterclasses in tight, focused design,” said Sam Prebble, one-half of Trigger Happy Interactive. “Turbo Overkill kneels at the altar of the greats, but I admire how modern games give us more ways to express ourselves. I can’t wait to see how players and their badass creativity blow my levels wide open.”

About Apogee Entertainment

Apogee Software’s pioneering journey began in 1987, when Scott Miller decided to split his new game, Kingdom of Kroz, into three episodes, with the first episode available as free shareware. The “Apogee model” of distribution revolutionized PC gaming and catapulted Apogee Software to global renown. As an indie publisher, Apogee (and its later incarnation, 3D Realms) would introduce the world to id Software, Remedy Entertainment, Parallax Software, and other video game superstars in the making. As a developer, Apogee would innovate and inspire in equal measure, creating treasured characters and franchises like Duke Nukem, Max Payne, Shadow Warrior, and Prey en route to earning over a billion dollars.

The new Apogee Entertainment, with founder Scott Miller and longtime partner Terry Nagy at the helm, will empower today’s incredibly talented indie developers, paving the way for their global success with innovative ideas, cutting-edge marketing, and the same fearlessness that changed the industry.

To celebrate the release of the new DLC the game is featured with a 35% discount for the base game together with significant discounts on all editions and Season Pass. The deal starts today on Steam, Epic Games Store, and GOG and runs until 28 April.

TURTLE BEACH CORPORATION LAUNCHES “PLAY WITH PURPOSE” – ESTABLISHING THE COMPANY’S ENVIRONMENTAL, SOCIAL, AND GOVERNANCE GOALS TO FURTHER IMPROVE GLOBAL IMPACT

TURTLE BEACH CORPORATION LAUNCHES “PLAY WITH PURPOSE” – ESTABLISHING THE COMPANY’S ENVIRONMENTAL, SOCIAL, AND GOVERNANCE GOALS TO FURTHER IMPROVE GLOBAL IMPACT

Sydney, Australia – April 22, 2022: Leading gaming accessories provider Turtle Beach Corporation today officially announced the Company’s Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) program, entitled Play with Purpose. The Company’s Play with Purpose program, along with its ESG Policy adopted by its Board of Directors, formalises the Company’s ESG initiatives and sets goals that are, and will continue to be, a vital part of Turtle Beach Corporation’s business.

Available on the Company’s corporate website, Play with Purpose highlights Turtle Beach Corporation’s current and future initiatives and goals to reduce its carbon footprint, eliminate plastic packaging, reduce packaging size, and add carbon impact labels on select products across its Turtle Beach, ROCCAT, and Neat Microphones brands. Beyond Turtle Beach Corporation’s ESG goals, Play with Purpose also provides insight into the Company’s diversity and inclusion and community involvement commitments.

As one of the most well-known brands in gaming for decades, Turtle Beach has had a long-term commitment to ESG initiatives and today’s announcement articulates our future goals,” said Juergen Stark, Chairman and CEO, Turtle Beach Corporation. “With the guidance of the team at RPS Group, amplified by the energy within the organisation to continue to do more and do better, we are excited to share these plans and our goals with the community. We want to ensure that when consumers buy Turtle Beach, ROCCAT, and Neat Microphones products, they have confidence knowing we’re focused on minimising environmental impact, in addition to knowing they’re getting the highest-quality product.

One of Turtle Beach Corporation’s commitments to date includes reducing plastic use in packaging by 88% (by weight) for the Company’s Stealth 600 Gen 2 headset for Xbox (as compared to the original Stealth 600 Xbox headset model). In addition, with other headset models, plastic use was reduced by 87%-96% (by weight). Turtle Beach Corporation has also re-engineered product packaging over time to reduce the overall size and allow for more efficient shipping, which reduces the carbon output associated with shipping products.

Nevertheless, Turtle Beach Corporation plans to go further. By 2023, the Company aims to introduce carbon neutral products and place carbon impact labelling on select products. Turtle Beach’s ESG team is investigating potential sources of post-consumer recycled plastics (PCR) and ways to best integrate PCRs into future products. By 2024, the goal is to incorporate at least 10% PCRs into select products. These actions will not only minimize Turtle Beach Corporation’s environmental impact, but will also enable Turtle Beach, ROCCAT, and Neat Microphones customers to make informed purchasing decisions that support a more sustainable lifestyle.

Turtle Beach Corporation’s Play with Purpose program is also about more than the environment. Indeed, the Company has always taken a strong position to support diversity and inclusion, along with steadfast community support and interaction. The Company believes workplace diversity creates an environment where different perspectives lead to improved creativity, productivity, team member engagement, and overall employee happiness. To embrace diversity, Turtle Beach has taken initiatives such as working with diversity-focused, specialized job sites to increase the diversity of its candidate pool.

In addition to the Company’s long-standing in-house diversity efforts, over 60% of Turtle Beach Corporation’s roster of external gaming partners and creator talent come from under-represented groups in gaming. Turtle Beach Corporation also supports the broader community by giving back to causes that we, along with our customers and our partners, care strongly about. For example, in 2020, in support of social justice reform Turtle Beach Corporation partnered with Roc Nation and Team Roc to provide financial support for The Gathering for Justice and Until Freedom. Also, in 2021 Turtle Beach announced a long-term partnership with GLSEN to support LGBTQ+ gamers.

Stark added, “We want to work with a diverse group of the best and brightest people, because it makes Turtle Beach Corporation a better place. Whether it’s the individuals that make up the Company, other companies we work with, or the influencers, content creators, and pro gamers we partner with, diversity has always played an important role in how we do business.”

Turtle Beach Corporation engaged RPS Group – a global ESG consultancy, to help enhance its ESG strategy, assist with implementation, and provide an objective assessment of its current standing with respect to ESG matters.
