A Classic Returns! The Original Angry Birds Game Relaunches Today

Do not attempt to adjust your calendars, Angry Birds fans – 2012 is back!

ESPOO, Finland March 31, 2022 – Rovio Entertainment has launched Rovio Classics: Angry Birds – a complete recreation of the original Angry Birds game as it appeared in app stores in 2012. The game includes all chapters from the original game, along with all of the Easter eggs and extras found in the game at that time.

Why 2012? After Angry Birds was removed from app stores in 2019, fans flocked to social media, banding together to call for the game’s return using the hashtag #BringBack2012. The outcry was impossible to ignore.

“We are extremely grateful to have such an amazing community of engaged fans that care deeply about our games,” says Rovio CEO Alex Pelletier-Normand. “Angry Birds has touched so many people and has been a large presence in mobile gaming. After hearing the outcry from our fans, we just had to find a way to bring Angry Birds back.”

Originally built in Rovio’s proprietary game engine, Rovio Classics: Angry Birds has been rebuilt from the ground up in Unity, creating a more sustainable platform for the game to be offered on newer devices while preserving the authentic 2012 Angry Birds experience.

“While we were rebuilding Angry Birds, we took great care to preserve the feeling of the original Angry Birds game,” says executive producer, Sami Ronkainen. “We know our fans are a discerning bunch and will be able to pick out even small differences. Matching the gameplay, physics and appearance of the game next to the original was crucial.”

As an added bonus, the pig destroying power-up, Mighty Eagle, will be available to all players for free. Offered in the original Angry Birds game as an in-app purchase, the Mighty Eagle gives players a way to pass some of the more notoriously challenging levels. Players can also use this big bird to achieve a 100% Eagle Score in every level, in addition to the classic three-star achievement.

Rovio Classics: Angry Birds is available now in the App Store and Google Play as a premium download for the very retro price of $0.99.

Battle for Stalingrad starts in Enlisted

Players are getting new missions, weapons, vehicles and soldiers, including Night Witches all-female aircraft pilots squadron

Gaijin Entertainment and Darkflow Software announce the release of the Battle for Stalingrad major Content Update for the WW2 online shooter Enlisted. The Stalingrad campaign features a new monetization and progression system that provides simpler and faster access to new weapons and vehicles. Other new features include soldier and vehicle customization, bomber raids, legendary Stalingrad snipers and pilots, flamethrower tanks, medic squads, and more.

“Battle of Stalingrad” Update Trailer

The Battle for Stalingrad was one of the decisive moments of World War II. Enlisted’s Battle for Stalingrad includes carefully reproduced iconic structures such as the headquarters of the German Field Marshal Friedrich Paulus, as well as authentic weapons and equipment used by both sides like flamethrower tanks. Players can even use legendary snipers Vasily Zaitsev and Erwin Koenig, or Tatyana Sumarokova and Mariya Smirnova (the female pilots from the historical Night Witches squadron) and use them in battle. 

The campaign is available for free, although some of its levels are exclusive to owners of the access pack. Owners of this pack receive soldiers and weapons already trained and improved to the pre-maximum level, so they’ll be able to progress through the campaign faster and without any extra expenses. Players can optionally pay for cosmetic items for soldiers, such as fur hats, belts, and pouches, to customize their appearance to their taste, while remaining within historical accuracy.

Among the new types of weapons and equipment are the Hungarian Kiraly submachine gun, the French Potez 633 dive bomber under the Romanian flag, as well as the ampoule gun that shoots flammable liquid capsules, and the legendary Maxim machine gun first introduces in 1910.

Bomber raids could be now summoned by the radio operators as an alternative to existing options like an artillery strike on target. Bomber squadrons take 2 minutes to arrive and they could be shot down by enemy anti-aircraft guns or fighter planes.

Medics are a new class of soldiers in Enlisted. They can both help the wounded right on the battlefield, and distribute first-aid kits to allies so that they can take care of themselves. All direct and indirect assistance with treatment is rewarded with experience points.

Other Enlisted’s campaigns like the Battle for Moscow or Invasion of Normandy have also got new missions, soldiers and gear.

You can read more about Enlisted and the update on the game’s official website.

Ding ding! The Wrejects’ first NFT drop has entered the ring

Tag-teaming with Polygon’s efficient scaling solution

Kansas, USA – March 31st, 2022 – Independent developer Boss Cannon today announced the premiere NFT drop for their brand new blockchain-based arena card battle game, Wrejects, developed for mobile and desktop browsers. Available to buy via OpenSea Marketplace and Wrejects.com, these Wrejects Series 1 NFTs are powered by Polygon’s efficient scaling solution in order to lower gas fees, generating less than 1% of the carbon emission that it currently produces on the standard Ethereum blockchain.

The Wrejects Series 1 NFTs feature an assortment of different cards for players to throw into the arena and use to battle opponents. In this first NFT drop, be in with the chance of single use item cards like ‘Blue Blorg Chewing Blorps’, which briefly increases the dexterity and stamina of fighters, or pick up some unique warriors like Wrub, the deceptively intellectual monster with a taste for blood, or Corp Bot ‘BOT1B1014’, an E-Soldier who might not be the smartest tool in the box but packs a punch in the Wrejects arena.

“We’re very excited to have our Series 1 NFTs finally drop. Wrejects is a project close to our hearts and we think people will go wild for the gorgeous hand-designed cards we’ve created,” said Casey Copeland, CEO of Wrejects. “This is our first drop of four so get them while they’re hot!”

About Wrejects:
Billed as Garbage Pail Kids meets turn-based Street Fighter with the added mix of a distinctive art style and an innovative play-to-earn system. Built on the blockchain, Wrejects allows players to collect and fight with NFT cards of characters, items and arenas all the while earning Painium ($PAIN), the in-game token, through playing the game. Choose your fighter from a unique roster of characters: from well-rounded Corp Bots to tactically diverse Wrejects – each with their own unique fighting style and attributes – to be your champion. Fights are simulated between player-managed NFT characters so preparation and strategy is the key to success. Choose your fighter, kit them out and watch them battle for the winner’s purse of valuable Painium tokens.

Fractured Online Closed Beta Launches on April 6

Discover new continents, craft more items, and help shape the future of this highly anticipated MMORPG with 24/7 server access

Hamburg, March 31, 2022 – gamigo and Dynamight Studios are announcing the upcoming closed beta of Fractured Online – the first truly dynamic, isometric open-world MMORPG – will launch on April 6, 2022.

The closed beta phase of Fractured Online welcomes players, both new and old, to explore the new continent of Aerhen, where Humans largely preside. Players will need cold insulation to last in this mountainous region filled with snow and ice as the weather will regularly test the mettle of would-be survivalists. If the weather doesn’t get you, the Jotunns, Mammoths, Moose, Arctic Wolves, and various Elementals will. These new creatures can be found throughout Aerhen, but proceed with caution. We don’t know the last time they had a decent bite to eat, and players might be the plump, juicy morsel they’ve been looking to ravage.

In addition to exploring a new region filled with obstacles to overcome, players will be able to take part in several events across multiple channels – including social media, Discord, and in-game – during their time with the closed beta. More details on these events will be revealed soon.

To commemorate the launch of the closed beta for Fractured Online, the first of a new series of developer diaries has been released. The first video – titled “What is Fractured Online and Why You Should Play It” – will introduce Dynamight Studios and this dynamic MMORPG to new players while also presenting the game’s overall vision and biggest challenges thus far. Several topics will be touched upon, including the game’s different races, PvE and PvP combat, its player-driven world and economy, and additional topics that should whet your appetite.

Players interested in participating in the closed beta of Fractured Online can purchase a discounted copy of the game via the official Glyph store at https://fracturedmmo.com/store/#pack. Not only will players gain access to its closed beta, but they’ll also receive Founder Packs that offer unique in-game items, credits and other limited content.

On an epic adventure, the duo repairs an interstellar beacon, constructs giant mechs, and unravels a cosmic mystery that transcends existence.
