After a successful turn on Google Play, Spiral Warrior will soon twirl onto Apple devices

SINGAPORE – May 7, 2021 – Electronic Soul, one of the leading game developers and publishers based in Asia, has announced its anime-themed spinning battle tops RPG, Spiral Warrior, is now available for pre-registration on the App Store and will launch on iOS soon.

Pre-register on the App Store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.oversea.spinarena

Spiral Warrior gives players the power to customize the components of their Spirals, offering an unlimited number of combinations that significantly increase its battle value as they work to discover the optimal combination of the Battle Cap, Weight Ring, and Driver. Once players are content with how their Spiral looks on paper, it’s time to get it in the ring to see how it performs against other spinners. Development studio Light x Shadow worked hard to give Spirals realistic movement trajectories that perform like the real-life toys they’re based upon. The combination of developing a combat collision and physics engine gives Spiral Warrior an unparalleled amount of realism.

Spiral Warrior features rich gameplay modes including an epic 81-player Survival Mode, which pits 81 players online simultaneously to see who the last spiral warrior will be, Super Championship, which allows players to use their exclusive spinning tops to challenge other players from all over the world and earn huge rewards if they reach the top of the rankings, and Random Adventure, which takes players across numerous chapters to overcome unknown challenges using their wit and will. No matter the mode, players will be able to battle spirals using simple and intuitive controls in combat that take no longer than 30 seconds to complete. Take on all comers wherever you are!

In addition to Spiral Warrior’s compelling gameplay and game modes, the title uses a high-quality anime art style for each Spiral’s avatar that adds character to each spinner. Spiral Warriors — like Beelzebub, Valkyrie, and Behemoth — have their own stats, unique abilities, and strengths and weaknesses, making it important to learn about each one before spinning them into battle. Battles are largely passive, but players can activate abilities once they become available that can turn the tide of any skirmish.

Spiral Warrior launched on Android last year to great acclaim and has achieved a 4.5 Star rating (out of 29K+ reviews) on the Google Play store. iPhone and iPad users who pre-register for the game will be able to earn several in-game items, such as Gold, Gems, a Chronokey, or Lucky Draw tickets. The more pre-registrations the game receives, the better the prize for everyone!

RiMS Racing: Aprilia takes centre stage in a new gameplay video

Lesquin, France, May 6, 2021 – NACON and RaceWard Studio are pleased to present the very first gameplay images of RiMS Racing, a brand-new motorbike game concept scheduled for release on August 19. The experts from Italian studio RaceWard have developed a game that gives players an unparalleled experience, blending driving and mechanics, pushing the limits of realism and customization.

Hot on the heels of the Ducati Panigale V4 R and the MV Agusta F4 RC, another of the eight motorbikes available in RiMS Racing is presented: the Aprilia RSV4 1100 Factory, winner of 7 SBK World Titles. A masterpiece of aerodynamics and speed thanks to the integrated winglets and a double-layered fairing, the latest offering from the Aprilia Racing department incorporates the most powerful engine they have ever used, capable of up to 217 horsepower. Just as with each of the perfectly reproduced motorbikes in the game, the Aprilia will be optimized throughout the player’s progress using the mechanical interface developed by RaceWard Studio.

Racing conditions, riding style and mechanical status of the components have a direct impact on the motorbike’s behavior. By taking the customization to its most extreme level and thanks to a physics system offering unmatched precision, RiMS Racing highlights the connexion between each part and puts mechanics at the very core of the gameplay.

To ensure victory, players are able to fully disassemble their motorbike and replace every element to achieve the best possible setup by choosing over 500 official components: tires, discs, callipers, pads, suspension, springs, air filters, exhausts, brake and clutch master cylinders, brake fluids, engine oils, ECUs, fairings… and many more.

The player uses different tools to identify the mechanical components that can be upgraded, such as the Motorbike Status Check (MSC), which provides a real-time analysis of the motorbike’s status and performance. Players are at the controls and select, handle and integrate each required component in the driver’s HQ, in a brand-new gameplay feature.

This gameplay demonstration premier takes players to Germany and Norway, highlighting two of the iconic locations reproduced in RiMS Racing: the official Nürburgring circuit, considered one of the most difficult by a large number of drivers and with a wide range of turns; and the breathtaking Atlantic Road, lying between the ocean and land.The latest news about RiMS Racing on Facebook and Twitter.

RiMS Racing will be available on August 19, 2021 on PlayStation®4, PlayStation®5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, PC and on Nintendo Switch™.

OBSERVER: System Redux is the definitive vision of the award-winning cyberpunk thriller, rebuilt and augmented for the next generation. The year is 2084. The future has turned out much darker than anyone could imagine. First, there was the Nanophage. A digital plague that killed thousands upon thousands of those who chose to augment their minds and bodies. Then came the War, leaving both the West and the East decimated and shattered. With no one left to seize power, corporations took over and forged their own crooked empires.

You are a tool of corporate oppression. Feared and despised, you hack into the darkest corners of your suspects’ minds. You creep into their dreams, expose their fears, and extract whatever your investigation may require. You are an Observer.

System Redux

Veteran Observers can dive deeper into this dystopian reality thanks to three brand-new side cases to solve. “Errant Signal”, “Her Fearful Symmetry” and “It Runs in the Family” add another layer of depth to the game’s story while exploring thought-provoking themes of a future that soon might become our present.

On top of that, System Redux offers expanded gameplay, which includes new game mechanics, new secrets to find, redesigned stealth, additional neural interrogations, and quality-of-life improvements made with the help of the Observer community.

Newcomers get the chance to experience one of the most thrilling cyberpunk stories in all its next-gen glory: boasting 4K resolution, upgraded textures, new animations, models and effects, and transformed with jaw-dropping Ray-Tracing and HDR lighting.

YEAR 2084 / BECOME AN OBSERVER / EAT THEIR DREAMS

Virtual realities, mind-altering drugs, neural implants…Dive deep into a world where life is cheap and hope is scarce. You are Daniel Lazarski – an elite investigator of the future, portrayed by late cyberpunk icon Rutger Hauer. Using a device known as the Dream Eater, hack into people’s minds to extract clues and evidence.

Kingston Technology DDR5 Overclockable Modules One Step Closer to Reaching Market

Taipei – May 6, 2021 – Kingston Technology, a world leader in memory products and technology solutions, today announced it has sent overclockable DDR5 modules to its motherboard partners to begin qualification on the next-generation memory platform. Kingston engineered its DDR5 modules with a preset XMP profile but also enabled our motherboard partners to manually adjust the power management integrated circuit (PMIC) beyond the 1.1V DDR5 spec, thus allowing maximum flexibility to overclock. Kingston expects to ship its DDR5 solutions in Q3.

Memory validation requires cooperation of the entire computing ecosystem and Kingston has forged close ties with the leading motherboard manufacturers and chipset makers throughout its 33-year history. This step continues the critical process of bringing leading high-performance and overclockable memory solutions to market later this year.

For over three decades, Kingston has meticulously engineered and has 100% tested every cell on every chip on every module. The methodical testing combined with a lifetime warranty and unmatched customer service has made Kingston the largest third-party memory manufacturer in the world, with over 80% market share. Kingston has also been a longtime member of JEDEC, the governing entity for the microelectronics industry. For over a decade, Kingston has held a seat on the JEDEC board as well, helping set the standards for which all manufacturers follow.
