A GALAXY IN CONSTANT EVOLUTION AWAITS IN DISTANT WORLDS 2

The critically acclaimed strategy series returns when the much anticipated sequel touches down today on PC

Epsom, United Kingdom, March 10: Slitherine Games and Code Force are thrilled to announce that today, March 10th, players will be able to return to the Distant Worlds universe with the highly anticipated sequel, Distant Worlds 2, launching on PC. 

The new launch trailer can be viewed here.

With the first installment setting the standard for the sci-fi 4X genre as fans have come to know it today, Distant Worlds 2 builds on this by launching players into a living galaxy in constant evolution. No two adventures will be alike as the game generates events that happen independently of one another within the game world. Galaxies can feature up to 2,000 star systems including tens of thousands of planets, moons, and asteroids, providing a deeply immersive experience that will be different every single time.

Distant Worlds 2 is all about player choice and the freedom to explore the game world and play the way you want. Automate the various tasks in your empire, so that you can focus on the areas that you enjoy most. Play only as an explorer without worrying about economics and trade, or manage the home planet, leaving your faction’s AI to exploration and defensive duties. The powerful AI engine has been created so that you can also play as Ship Designer only, if you choose, with the rest of the galaxy evolving and living independently in the background.

Every faction in Distant Worlds 2 has its own story arc and dedicated faction missions. Explore the vastness of space,  find valuable resources, discover potential colonies for your empire and make contact with other empires, discussing treaties, making trade offers and forging alliances. Defend the outlying areas of your empire to protect it from raiding pirates, or even dangerous space monsters. Develop new technologies for building your own unique ships and star bases. Design your own starships, mixing designs and elements such as weapons, engines and sensors. The possibilities are endless, play your own way and map out your own adventure across the galaxy.

Distant Worlds 2 also features a completely overhauled, clear and easy to use UI, and an all-new introductory tutorial will ease players into the world; helping them get to grips with all of its systems.

Distant Worlds 2 will be available on Slitherine.com, Steam and other digital shops, and also playable on NVIDIA GeForce NOW. 

For more information on Distant Worlds 2, you can stay up to date on Slitherine Games, and on Twitter, Facebook, YouTube and Twitch.

Futuristic Armor and Prehistoric Beasts Clash in New Capcom IP, Exoprimal

London (March 9, 2022) Today on PlayStation’s State of Play broadcast, Capcom revealed Exoprimal™. This team-based action game is a new IP set to unleash a prehistoric blast from the past on the near future. Suit up in powered armor to put down dinosaur invasions and save humanity from extinction when the Exofighters deploy for battle on PlayStation®5, PlayStation®4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One and Steam in 2023.

Watch the Exoprimal reveal trailer here:

It’s 2040 and the planet is in crisis. Dinosaurs are appearing from thin air and laying waste to cities across the globe. Threatened by history’s deadliest creatures, the world turns to the powerful Aibius Corporation and its revolutionary technology for help. The company’s next-generation AI, Leviathan, can forecast where dinosaur outbreaks will occur and deploy Exofighters to the area. Armed with state-of-the-art mechanized combat armor known as Exosuits, these warriors represent humanity’s last hope.

Learn more about Exoprimal in the Developer Overview video here:

Exoprimal pioneers a new multiplayer experience rooted in co-op – but with a competitive edge. In the game’s main mode, Dino Survival, teams fight for every breath against countless dinosaurs while racing to complete missions before rival squads in 5v5 matches. A dynamic mix of objectives keeps players on their guard and ensures each match is different form the last. Exofighters will need to stay on their toes as hunts transition into precious cargo deliveries or desperate last stands against relentless assaults. Opposing teams are even given opportunities to tackle adversaries head-on and impede their progress. While Exoprimal is purely focused around multiplayer, a narrative is interwoven throughout the game. Players can sink their teeth into the world’s rich history and colorful characters by unlocking new story threads and piecing together the mystery behind the dinosaur outbreaks.

Exofighters are always outnumbered and must work together to overcome overwhelming odds. Their Exosuits come in an array of classes, each playing a distinct role in combat. Assault models like the marksman Deadeye and the melee-oriented Zephyr excel at cutting down enemy swarms. Meanwhile, tanks such as the shield-bearing Roadblock and support types like the vital Witchdoctor help keep everyone alive to fight another day. Every model is outfitted with a unique armory and special abilities. Players can even swap between Exosuits on the fly to overcome any situation, no matter how dire.

Stay tuned to Exoprimal on Twitter and Facebook for more updates.

Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands Details Post-Launch Season Pass Contents

New details revealed alongside a brand new, Wonderlands-inspired Diamond Pony Glider for Fortnite

Today, 2K and Gearbox Software revealed new details for what fans can expect from post-launch content in the Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands® Season Pass. Available for individual purchase or as part of the Chaotic Great Edition, the Season Pass includes four new post-launch content drops featuring formidable bosses and unfamiliar settings, a seventh class that expands the Multiclass system even further, and a suite of cosmetics in the Butt Stallion Pack.

Four Exciting Post-Launch Content Drops

Each of the four new content drops begins in Dreamveil Overlook, where the enigmatic fortune teller Vesper awaits an audience. Peer into the Mirrors of Mystery she oversees and you’ll be whisked away to illusionary environments, each consisting of five levels to fight through followed by a fearsome new boss encounter. Each Mirror of Mystery content drop will be available for individual purchase, but you can punch your ticket to all four with the Season Pass.

The final boss within each Mirror of Mystery will grow more powerful over time, and Vesper’s tales are designed to be replayed so you can test your mettle against the rising difficulty. Each time you successfully vanquish the boss’ increasingly fearsome forms, you’ll earn Lost Souls that let you spin Vesper’s Wheel of Fate. Spins of this creepy contraption can reward you with Legendary weapons, gear, and other items.

Endless Possibilities and Customization

Completing a content drop will also add its respective levels and boss to the pool of possibilities in the Chaos Chamber, the endlessly replayable endgame of Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands. This will expand the myriad of combinations for your randomized dungeon, making each run that much more unpredictable. For more info about how the Chaos Chamber works, check out the latest Dev Diary.

The fourth post-launch content drop will also introduce the addition of a to-be-announced seventh class to the roster of six classesyou can mix and match between in the base game. With its own Class Feat, two fresh Action Skills, and a unique skill tree to play with, the seventh class will create even more Multiclass possibilities.

Rounding out the Season Pass is the Butt Stallion Pack, featuring cosmetic items approved by Queen Butt Stallion herself that’ll make you the envy of other Fatemakers. Included in the Butt Stallion Pack are the Diamond Guard Armor Presets (three items), the Crystal Glitter Makeup Pack (five items), the Adamant Throne Banner Set (two items), and the Diamond Hero Statue Material.

By purchasing either edition of Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands on the Epic Games Store, you’ll get the Diamond Pony Glider for use in Fortnite after its release on March 25, 2022. That also applies to pre-purchases!
