Survivors can be the fairest of them all in this new fable-themed EP

SINGAPORE – June 1, 2021 – Free Fire, the world’s most downloaded mobile game in 2019 and 2020, welcomes Survivors to a world where culture and fashion are heavily influenced by fairy tales and fables in its latest Elite Pass (EP), Evil Enchanted. Be the belle of the battlefield after earning fairytale-themed rewards, including the Prince and Princess Afterdark Bundles, the Evil Enchanted MP5 skin, and much more.

In Evil Enchanted, Survivors are transported to a fictional time that blends the 1970s with current-day technology. Caspian and Ariel — the two main characters in this EP — serve as security escorts for dignitaries that are traveling to and from a small city in the middle of the forest. This city often serves as the site for many important meetings between world leaders, conferences, and other VIPs, making its outskirts a very desirable location for mercenaries, assassins, and other rogues to prey on their targets. While both Caspian and Ariel are on patrol, they come across a mysterious figure who appears to be lost. His purpose is suddenly made apparent as he mentions killing the governor during a call to his team. Shortly after his call, he spots Caspian and Ariel, pulling out and pointing a gun in their direction.

The Evil Enchanted EP gives Survivors the opportunity to earn several fairytale-themed rewards that include:

• Prince Afterdark Bundle (Male)
• Princess Afterdark Bundle (Female)
• Crystal Case Box Skin
• Crystal Heels Diver Skateboard
• Evil Enchanted MP5 Weapon Skin
• Crystal Heels Case Backpack

Free Fire designers pulled out all the stops for the Evil Enchanted EP’s style. The classic fairy tale of Cinderella served as their main inspiration for Caspian and Ariel’s clothing, while a combination of gold, blue, and red acted as the core color scheme. The overall aesthetics are darker in tone with design element highlights that include crystals, ruffles, and fringes. Both outfits feature incredible centerpieces that continue the EP’s homage to the timeless Cinderella story — a crystal high heel on the Prince Afterdark Bundle and a horse head on the shoulder of the Princess Afterdark Bundle.

Survivors who wish upon a star looking to play the most popular mobile game won’t need to look far as Free Fire can be downloaded on the App Store or on Google Play.

Celebrate International Dinosaur Day by hunting them downusing various weapons, tools, and the environment

CHICAGO – June 1, 2021 – Digital Dreams Entertainment LLC, best known for its work on the wildly popular Mutant Football League™, is offering players the experience of a lifetime in its first-person hunting simulator, Carnivores: Dinosaur Hunt. Travel to a world like Earth 65+ million years ago to planet FMM UV-32 with nothing but your wits, your trusty rifle, and your bag of hunting tricks to track and kill the largest, most dangerous creatures ever to exist — DINOSAURS. This is the first time this popular series has appeared on Nintendo Switch™, PlayStation®4 and Xbox One™.

Carnivores: Dinosaur Hunt is a remastered version of the PC game, Carnivores: Dinosaur Hunter Reborn, that features a smoking-hot game engine that delivers improved graphics, advanced dinosaur behaviors, and seamless player progression. Hunters will visit the many lovely but potentially lethal environments including beaches, dense jungles, rocky plains, and deserts. Making full use of the environment will increase your odds of having a successful hunt. Players will follow trails and track animal footprints, stay aware of wind direction to hide their scent, use stealth tactics, or gain the high ground to get any kind of edge over your ten-ton prey.

Prior to the start of any hunt, players will need to make a plan (and a Last Will and Testament) while considering the types of dinosaurs they’ll encounter. Among the most crucial items they’ll need is the handheld M.I.S.T. (Mobile Interstellar Satellite Transponder) which includes a radar and GPS satellite positioning to make it easier to track their prey. The Cover Scent item, which masks the player’s scent, can also be a lifesaver. Oh — and don’t forget a high caliber rifle, a sniper rifle, or a silent crossbow! What you choose to bring into the hunting arena, will determine whether you successfully make the shot or even live to tell the tale.

Once all of their arrangements have been made, players will track down a wide variety of dinosaur species, each with its own behavior patterns and intelligence level. While some dinosaurs will run away if spotted, others will attack if they feel threatened. There are also those extremely hungry dinosaurs who will just kill anything that moves, so be on the lookout for them and try not to be their next meal.

Do you have what it takes to take down the world’s most dangerous creatures? If you think you do, then we can’t think of a better way to celebrate International Dinosaur Day than by taking down an alpha predator like the Tyrannosaurus Rex with a single shot. No hunt would be complete without a collection. Players can display their greatest trophies and achievements in the Dinosaur trophy room. Players can also strive to be the very best via the game’s Leaderboards showing the top hunters across several categories including most money earned, high scores, and max distance shots for every type of dinosaur.

Carnivores: Dinosaur Hunt is now available for download on Nintendo Switch™, PlayStation®4, and Xbox One™ for $14.99. For more information, please find Digital Dreams Entertainment LLC at the following locations:
