Hundreds of authentic machines available
Over 400 authentically digitized machines and tools from Case IH, CLAAS, DEUTZ-FAHR, Fendt, John Deere, Massey Ferguson, New Holland, Valtra and many other renowned brands from all over the world will be available in Farming Simulator 22.

As always, GIANTS Software, in close cooperation with the respective manufacturers, paid close attention to detail – up to the last bolt of each machine. The Massey Ferguson MF 8S tractor will be equally authentic as the Mack Super-Liner 6×4 by Mack Trucks or the New Holland Braud 9070L grape harvester that is introduced alongside the brand-new crop.

Designed more realistic than ever
It’s not just the visuals: GIANTS Software’s sound department greatly enhanced the audio aspect with real-time sound transformations responding to the environment, and even more mechanical details like moving lids, bolts and a lot of hydraulic components making noise.

“Farming Simulator 22 contains not only the biggest fleet of agricultural machinery of the series. It’s also the most accurate and extensive digitization of real farming tools – something to be proud of. We thank all our partners for the continuing partnerships that made it possible”, comments Thomas Frey, Creative Director at GIANTS Software.

Farming Simulator 22 releases on November 22^nd for PC, Mac, PlayStation®5 (PS5™), Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation®4, Xbox One, and Stadia. Visit the official Farming Simulator website.

• Strong Planning and Customer Support Leads to 27% Market Share
• Solid Business Position Continues into 2021

Australia– November 4, 2021 – Kingston Technology, a world leader in memory products and technology solutions, today announced TrendForce has named it as the number one supplier of SSDs in the channel (retail)for all of 2020. According to TrendForce, Kingston accounted for a whopping 27 percent of the 111.5 million units shipped in 2020.

With the emergence of COVID-19 in 2020, TrendForce reported a 15% YoY decrease in annual SSD shipments to the channel and severe delays in manufacturing and logistics resulting in a sudden decline in order volumes. Yet, findings show through Kingston’s global strategy for sourcing components, the company was well ahead of its competitors considering a global pandemic and looming chip shortage. The results reinforced Kingston as the clear leader in SSD production, as the second-place supplier accounted for only 8 percent of the total channel market. As a category, third-party suppliers (non-semiconductor) SSD makers accounted for 65% of the total shipments in 2020.

Kingston Technology’s presence in the market is widely due to its strong relationships with customers and channel partners worldwide. As the ongoing health crisis swept through the world and businesses moved fast to adapt, Kingston continued to offer top-tier sales support and access to in-house product experts and engineers who embody the “Kingston Is With You” working attitude that has led to three successful decades of reliability and support for customers. Kingston’s #1 rank in the SSD market is no surprise when the same approach in the DRAM division has led the company to be the largest third-party memory module supplier for the 18^th consecutive year.

“The 2020 research findings reinforce Kingston’s growing presence and position in the SSD market,” said Kingston. “The COVID-19 pandemic has largely impacted and accelerated the worldwide demand of SSDs with remote working and education as the key drivers behind last year’s surge continuing through 2021 into next year. With that, we continue to solidify our offerings with distinct SATA and NVMe solutions in the client space and growing enterprise solutions for a variety of applications and host environments.”

Kingston has no plans in slowing down having just added two PCIe 4.0 NVMe M.2 SSDs to its portfolio with the addition of KC3000 and Kingston FURY Renegade SSD.  The high-performance drives joined Kingston’s family of client SSDs to enable those who demand speed and reliability to handle intensive games and application workloads on desktops and laptop PCs.

Sydney, Australia, November 4, 2021. Milestone, one of the leading racing games developers in the world, celebrates its 25th anniversary today. The story began in Milan, when a small group of true video games enthusiasts started Graffiti, later renamed Milestone in 1996. To them we owe a game still considered a masterpiece in the world of racing video games: Screamer. Its global success established the company as a leading brand in the field of driving games on PC.

In the following years, know-how, passion and meticulous attention to detail, allowed Milestone to get noticed by some of the biggest AAA publishers worldwide to craft its first officially licensed titles: SBK and the MotoGP series, a long-lasting partnership that has entertained more than 5 million players since its debut.

In 2012, a major breakthrough: Milestone started to self-publishing its own games, expanding its licenses’ portfolio with two new dirt bike racing games: the MXGP video game series – with its 50 million in revenues worldwide over the years – and more recently the Monster Energy Supercross official video games, an extremely successful franchise that has been played by more than 4 million players in the last few years.

In the same year, another big step for Milestone with its first proprietary franchise, RIDE. Over the years, RIDE delighted the two-wheels lovers with its huge bike collection, which earned the Guinness World Record in 2016 for the biggest licensed bike roster in a video game.

2019 marked a major breakthrough that paved the way to a great future: the leading producer and distributor of digital entertainment products, Koch Media GmbH (a subsidiary of the Embracer Group) decided to bet on Milestone, that officially became part of the group.

This year marks the celebration of its 25^th anniversary and one of the biggest launches in the company’s long history: Hot Wheels Unleashed. Released at the end of September, the game has already proved to be one of the greatest successes in Milestone’s history.

“25 years are an important anniversary. It’s amazing how much intelligence, passion and commitment shaped Milestone in these 25 years. How many challenges, achievements and satisfactions we have experienced! And even after so many years, we’re still having a lot of fun, because we love what we do, and we are ready for the next 25 years” commented Luisa Bixio, CEO of Milestone.

Klemens Kundratitz, Managing Director of Koch Media Group commented “we are very proud to have Milestone within our group, their dedication to producing top quality, immersive racing games has stood the test of time, who knows what the next 25 years will bring!”

Today, the Milestone team counts more than 260 talents and keeps growing, continuing to establish itself as a true benchmark in the world of racing video games.

Founded in Milan in 1996, Milestone S.r.l. is one of the leading and longest established racing game developers in the world.  Its 250+ people team is responsible for hit series like Hot Wheels Unleashed, MotoGP™, MXGP and Monster Energy Supercross – The Official Videogame, as well as RIDE and Gravel, Milestone’s proprietary IPs.

Hamburg, Germany – November 3, 2021 – Hot off their EVERSPACE 2 launch on Xbox Game Pass for PC, independent AA studio ROCKFISH Games has released Khaït Nebula: Stranger Skies, the third, major Early Access update for their acclaimed spacefaring looter shooter. 

The Khaït Nebula is the strangest star system players have yet to discover in the EVERSPACE 2 universe. Filled with mysterious artifacts, bizarre creatures, and hints about the history of the precursor race known as The Ancients, there’s a lot to discover in space and on planetary locations.

Picking up where the last update’s story left off, EVERSPACE 2 players can now discover a new faction, alien life forms, and another companion in the latest star system. They’ll also gain access to a new player ship class, perks, puzzles, and more. The Khaït Nebula is filled with a whole host of space faring wildlife as well as The Redeemers, a cult of researchers turned to the worship of The Ancients.

Khala, the Navigator, joins the party after encountering her during the main quest line. She comes from a previously unmet alien species and brings special expertise to the crew, unlocking  additional details on the the star map for completionists and jump nodes for shortcuts through space, namely: Fast Travel.

The new Vindicator Heavy Fighter type ship class switches it up with high mobility and a focus on using drones to deal damage. The Vindicator’s drone focus is supported by its expertise and abilities which increase drone hull hit points, synchronizes attacks, and repair or build new drones from destroyed enemies.

In the 2022 roadmap preview, ROCKFISH Games reveals that the next update is scheduled for spring, next year. It will feature another star system but no additional story content as the remaining third of the campaign is being saved for the full release. However, in the spring update space pilots will get a glimpse of the endgame as well as the third light fighter subclass, so there will be plenty of new content to explore.

Furthermore, UI and text language support for German, French, Italian, Spanish, Brazilian Portuguese, Polish, Czech, Russian, Simplified Chinese, Japanese, and Korean will be added in this update per high demand from the international EVERSPACE 2 community.
