A3: STILL ALIVE KICKS OFF A NEW JOURNEY WITH INTEGRATION OF ‘INETRIUM’

Convert INETRIUM to MARBLEX for In-Game Exchanges and Out-of-Game Utilization

LOS ANGELES – MAR. 4, 2022 – Netmarble Corp., a leading developer and publisher of mobile games, is thrilled to announce the completion of its blockchain ecosystem integration for its dark fantasy open world mobile RPG A3: Still Alive with the formal addition of INETRIUM as part of its new content added to the game today.

INETRIUM is a utility token on the MBX, which is Netmarble’s own currency. It will be implemented by many games, including A3:Still Alive Global – By collecting Inetrion Ore in the new Level 190-or-above Inetrion Dungeon after using a Feather of Protection, players can refine their ore to mint a new INETRIUM coin. From there, players can exchange INETRIUM for MBX, which can be exchanged for services outside the game, once MBX Wallet service activates in the near future. As part of Netmarble’s commitment to offer extensive value to players, the company will not sell its own coins to the public, preventing any rug pull issue.

Pre-registration is currently on-going HERE; While numbers of in-game benefits can be obtained upon the pre-register, the players are urged to not to miss out on many rewards via collaboration events with KLAY Provision.

Other A3: STILL ALIVE content that will go live in the next update includes:

  • Inetrion Express Pass– By acquiring this pass, new players can kick off their A3: Still Alive journey at Level 190 so they can enter the Inetrion Dungeon. Those who acquire the Premium Inetrion Express Pass are guaranteed to receive a Combat power of 4.3M with provided equipment, Soul Linkers and Accessories.
  • Holy Artifact Growth System – When players reach Level 200, they can place equipment in the new “Holy Artifact” slots to let certain option stats grow depending on which equipment is placed in certain spots.

Set in an apocalyptic fantasy world of swords and sorcery, A3: Still Alive is a cross-genre mobile experience that pairs the enormous and living worlds of Open-World RPGs with the extreme combat of Battle Royale. Players must be vigilant in an always-open Player vs.

Player (PvP) environment as they fight against enemies with intense hack & slash combat and prove their mettle in a variety of PvP and Player vs. Environment (PvE) modes. A3: Still Alive is beautifully rendered with splendid console-quality 3D graphics that are brought to life thanks to the outstanding optimization of the Unity Engine.

A3: Still Alive is now available as a free digital download (with in-app purchases) on Apple’s App Store and Google Play, in 172 countries around the world. The game is also available for download as an Open Beta for Windows PC via A3: Still Alive’s  website.

As always, completing optional Assassination Bonuses will beef up your payday. Regardless, players who complete three Payphone Hits this week will net an additional bonus of GTA$200K (delivered within 72 hours of completion).

There’s more than one reason to drop your new partner a line. If you find yourself in need of a care package in Freemode, call Franklin from your Contacts list to request a free Supply Stash filled with Grenades, Sticky Bombs, Ammo, Armor, and Health.

Ghostrunner Returns with New Protagonist, Levels, and Story in Project_Hel DLC Today

Ghostrunner Returns with New Protagonist, Levels, and Story in Project_Hel DLC Today

Now on PlayStation and Xbox Consoles, PC; Base Game Free on PS5 via PlayStation Plus

CALABASAS, Calif. — Mar. 3, 2022 — Publishers 505 Games, alongside developers and partners One More Level, All In! Games, 3D Realms, and Slipgate Ironworks™, today launch Project_Hel, a prequel DLC for the million-selling first-person cyberpunk action game Ghostrunner. Return to the dystopian Dharma Tower as a brutally powerful antihero in a new campaign for $14.99/€14.99/£12.49 across console and PC platforms globally. Stay tuned to Ghostrunner’s official Twitter channel for updates on the Nintendo Switch version’s upcoming release.

Just prior to the events of the original Ghostrunner storyline, a combat android known as Hel begins her own violent mission: quelling a rebellion at the base of the tower-city. Yet Hel’s true motivation takes root in hatred toward the creators keeping her chained between assignments. Internal programming keeps her from slaughtering them outright, so she begrudgingly follows orders while looking for loopholes to disrupt her creators’ grand plans.

Unlike regular Ghostrunners, Hel contains no biological parts, instead driven by a cobbled-together AI rendering her unstable, impulsive, and angry. These traits manifest in Project_Hel’s new Rage bar. Fill it up by killing enemies to gain abilities injecting fresh blood into Ghostrunner’s one-hit-one-kill combat. Reject death with the attack-negating Shield, bypass enemy defenses with Unblockable strikes, and strike from afar with devastating energy Surges.

Instead of using a Gap Jammer grappling hook like original protagonist Jack, Hel’s powerful Super Jump provides aggressive movement capabilities both for traversal and combat. She can also air dash significantly further and use a Sensory Boost to quickly visualize their trajectory. These differences give Hel her own feel and style appealing to Ghostrunner veterans and newcomers alike. Upgrade her capabilities even further with a revamped progression system.

Face off against new challengers, including four enemy types and two bosses. Carve through the seven imaginative levels while mastering Hel’s intricacies and rebelling against her creators. Ascend the neon cityscapes to the tune of additional tracks from electronic artist Daniel Deluxe. Uncover more context in this action-packed prequel story by gathering hidden collectibles. Learn how Hel rises to become one of the toughest bosses in the original Ghostrunner plot. 

Project_Hel is available now on PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and PC via Steam, the Epic Games Store, and GOG. The Nintendo Switch version will launch in the near future. 

The Ghostrunner base game is available on PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, Amazon Luna, and PC via Steam, the Epic Games Store, and GOG. Throughout March, Ghostrunner on PlayStation 5 will be free for PlayStation Plus members.

Ghostrunner is published by H2 Interactive for Nintendo Switch and PlayStation in Asia, release date of PS4 and PS5 in Asia is March 4th, while that of Nintendo Switch to be communicated by H2.

While searching for your missing brother in the aftermath of your mother’s death, you’ll team up with a fugitive security android and explore the sinking suburbs, run-down strip malls, drainage ditches, and verdant industrial swamps of Louisiana’s petrochemical hinterlands. Geography of Robots blends true stories and personal history with inspirations from Southern Gothic literature and pulp fiction to create a uniquely dark and captivating game experience.

In making the announcement, Assemble Entertainment founder and CEO Stefan Marcinek remarked, “All of us at Assemble Entertainment are deeply shocked and stunned by the Russian invasion of Ukraine.

ABOUT BABYLON’S FALL
In BABYLON’S FALL players become a group of warriors known as the sentinels, bonded with special equipment called Gideon Coffins, and throw themselves into an odyssey to overcome the titanic Tower of Babylon, within which sleeps a great legacy. In addition to weapons wielded in both hands, characters can use the power of their Gideon Coffin to equip two more, allowing for combinations of up to four weapons at once. The capabilities of different equipment will also bring endless variation to the strategy that can be employed. The game’s visuals are achieved using a newly developed “brushwork style” to create a unique fantasy setting with a medieval oil painting aesthetic.
