Will you come out on top and be victorious in battle? 

Hangzhou, October 13, 2021 | 24 Entertainment is excited to announce that NARAKA: BLADEPOINT, the hugely successful 60-player action combat game is providing a new game mode for fighting game fans. Now it’s time to take your skills into the brand new 1v1 mode – think you’ve got what it takes? Inspired by the movie ‘Bloodsport’ combatants will fight to the death using only melee combat. In a ring with 16 others, you will have to win every single 1v1 match in order to reach the Bloodsport finals

Other rules include a time limit of 75 seconds per round – so no running around, you’re here to fight! With increased melee resistances, fights will offer a deeper back and forth action pattern with more chances of outplays and last-minute comebacks. Players will be able to use their normal ability – but ultimates are disabled.

Show off your prowess in the Bloodsport ring and stand glorious above your defeated opponents in this all-new game mode – available tomorrow.

Killsquad Brings Intense Four-player Co-op Action To PC On October 21st

Barcelona, Spain – October 13th, 2021 – Novarama is celebrating the upcoming release of frantic four-player co-op action game Killsquad with a presentation of the game’s cinematic story trailer, with review codes now available ahead of the game’s October 21st launch.

This trailer gives players a peek into a harsh sci-fi world where super soldiers with nothing to lose and plenty of ammo to waste head off dangerous mercenary machines to earn cash. The trailer warns players about the myriad threats they will face, including alien monstrosities, an army with a price on your head, a deadly plague, and even ancient gods who love playing tricks on your mind.

Killsquad offers frantic, skill-oriented action that can be enjoyed solo or with up to four-friends in co-op. With elements that draw on twin-stick shooters, hack and slash, dungeon crawlers and bullet hell, its unique brand of gameplay creates intense encounters across five planets with hordes of alien enemies and epic bosses.

The game features five hero classes, each with their own unique weapons and skills. As you progress, powerful upgrades can be acquired for those skills, and you can spend your hard-earned bounty from successfully completed contracts on new weapons and gear. Then there’s the cavalcade of loot that can be levelled up to provide powerful passive bonuses. That’s all to say that there are a lot of ways for players to define their own playstyle across a host of varied missions in a cool sci-fi setting. 

Killsquad has been in early access since July 2019 and the team at Novarama has been working really hard to get the game to a place where their players are happy with it. With the game enjoying 80+ Steam review scores in every month of 2021, the game is in a fantastic place ahead of its October 21st release.
