POST-APOCALYPTIC RPG BROKEN ROADS KICKS OFF TEAM17’S GAMESCOM WEEK

The wastelands of post-apocalyptic Western Australia reveal their stories in Drop Bear Bytes’ emotive and branching isometric role-playing game coming to Steam and console platforms in 2022.

Tuesday, 24th August 2021 – Team17 and Drop Bear Bytes have today confirmed the development of Broken Roads, an original and narrative-rich, isometric, turn-based role-playing game set in an unforgiving, post-apocalyptic Western Australia. Scheduled to launch on Steam and console platforms in 2022, Broken Roads presents a post-apocalypse with real-world locations and landmarks serving as the backdrop for the complex stories of Australia’s survivors.

At the heart of Broken Roads’ thoughtful and mature storylines is a deep and meaningful morality system – the Moral Compass – that influences quests, dialogue, and character development. The system is shaped along four different philosophical paths: Humanist, Utilitarian, Machiavellian, and Nihilist, each with their own unique traits. As the journey begins, players will be asked a series of questions – moral quandries – that determine their starting position on the compass. Decisions made throughout the game will then shift their philosophical leaning and affect future choices, quests, and reactions from the people they meet.

Broken Roads key features

  • Deep and compelling: Broken Roads builds on classic single-player role-playing games, blending traditional gameplay with original mechanics and experiences
  • Moral Compass: A unique system that influences both story and gameplay as the plot unfolds
  • Authentic setting: Explore real-world locations across a post-apocalyptic Western Australia filled with intriguing and emotional stories
  • Unique visual and musical styles: Hand-drawn visuals and a soundtrack composed with instruments constructed from everyday objects help make the world of Broken Roads vibrant and alive.

Broken Roads is now available to Wishlist on Steam. To keep up to date with all the information on Broken Roads please like us on Facebook, follow Team17 and the official Broken Roads Twitter, and join us on the official Discord server.

SPACEBASE STARTOPIA TOUCHES DOWN ON NINTENDO SWITCH 24TH SEPTEMBER

Brand-new screenshots show off space sim’s starry-eyed Switch debut

Sydney, AU – (24th August, 2021) – Publisher Kalypso Media and in-house developer Realmforge Studios have announced the release date for Spacebase Startopia on Nintendo Switch™. From 24th September, all Switch commanders will be able to take care of holidaying alien visitors from the comfort of their own home and on the go.

Spacebase Startopia tasks players with taking care of a variety of aliens aboard a doughnut-shaped space station. Across three different decks (the Sub Deck, Bio Deck, and Fun Deck) budding commanders will build and manage their piece of paradise in space, as well as fending off hordes of roving space pirates and invaders.

Spacebase Startopia for Nintendo Switch™ brings the party everywhere, offering players their very own space station and host of galactic gadgetry to pique the interest of a range of diverse, visiting, and employable alien lifeforms. Alongside entertainment such as all-night-all-day discos, space whale therapy and cat cafés, players will also be assisted by the station’s quick-witted, totally-not-homicidal AI, ‘VAL’.

***

About Spacebase Startopia

Spacebase Startopia captivates with its original mixture of economic simulation and empire building strategy paired with classic RTS skirmishes and a good dose of humour. And as if maintaining the three space station decks, entertaining the eight alien races and defending against enemy invaders weren’t enough of a challenge, the dynamic narrator AI is not going to mince matters and commentates events in a friendly but sharp-tongued manner.

Features

  • The 10-mission, fully dubbed single-player campaign will require all your skills as Commander of the Spacebase Startopia as you strive to create one of the most attractive trade and tourism destinations in the known universe
  • Each of the three decks will require your leadership skills — the Sub Deck containing all of the rooms vital to survival, while the Fun Deck focuses on your visitors, and the flora and fauna found on the Bio Deck provides sufficient resources for survival as well as a home for the graceful Dryads
  • Prevail against your AI competitors, for you are not alone on the station. Sabotage your opponents’ economy or attack them with your mech units, conduct trade and beware of space pirates eager to board
  • The dynamic narrator AI ‘VAL’ reacts to your decisions and is always at your side in both word and deed – alongside offering the occasional extremely unqualified comment

Hone your skills as the Commander of Spacebase Startopia in the many challenges of the single-player campaign or play your way in the customisable sandbox mode.

In order to really enjoy the crazy gameplay, you can choose from over a dozen quirky characters that fit your mood. Everyone can participate in the race as long as they are round and bouncy, from an extremely fast-paced snail to a fat bumblebee or an extra-fluffy sheep. Every level and course in Fling to the Finish comes with its own theme and style that challenges you in new ways with new surprises and obstacles. 

After a successful Kickstarter campaign in 2019, Fling to the Finish starts into Early Access today with 12 levels, 4 game modes, 12 playable characters and more than 20 crazy character skins for players to have fun with.

KING’S BOUNTY II: THE RETURN OF AIVAR

Moscow, Russia — August 23rd, 2021 — 1C Entertainment and Prime Matter are pleased to reveal the third and final trailer revealing King’s Bounty II’s protagonists. Today’s new video introduces Aivar, the former knight of the Royal Guard, who became a mercenary against his will.
 
The upcoming successor of the unique and critically acclaimed turn-based tactical role-playing series King’s Bounty will launch on August 24th, 2021 on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and PC.

Aivar, a descendant of an impoverished noble family, used to be a knight of the Royal Guard. However, at a crucial moment, he refused to support the coup that eventually led to king Claudius’s ascension to the throne. His actions saw him banished from the Guard. Aivar escaped to Artisania, where he earned a fine reputation as a mercenary and became the captain of his own troops: the Hounds of War. Recently, Aivar received an invitation to the Universal Assembly, where Prince Adrian promised to pardon him and offered a good position back with the Royal Guard. Aivar is suspicious of the offer, but thinking he’ll try his luck he sets out to meet the prince…

Darkness descends over the world of Nostria. Conspiracies, sabotage, and necromancy are overshadowing the country. Counties are demanding independence, bandits prowl the roads, and rumors about the overwhelming power of Blight emerge from a whisper in the dark. The old King Claudius was poisoned and cannot lead the kingdom, and so his son, Prince Adrian, must now unite the struggling lands while his power and faith fall under attack. But maybe a saviour – the kingdom’s last hope – is already here, to fight back and finally restore peace and order in Nostria?
King’s Bounty II will launch on August 24th on Xbox One, PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch and PC.
Pre-orders are available now. Find other Hunters for King’s Bounty on FacebookTwitterVKInstagram, and YouTube.
