The Latest in GTA Online: New Vapid Slamtruck, Double Rewards in the Bunker Series and Gunrunning Sales, Free Tee Unlock, and More

Introducing the Vapid Slamtruck, a Stuntman’s Fever Dream

Plus Double Rewards on the Bunker Series, a Vintage Vapid Tee for Collectors, and More

Due to a recent spate of accidents involving this model, Vapid wants to remind any potential buyers that a common side effect of driving the Slamtruck is the constant stream of idiots attempting to clear your ramp on the freeway. See one coming? For the love of god, duck.

The Vapid Slamtruck, now available from Southern San Andreas Super Autos.

2X GTA$ & RP On The Bunker Series

The best fun is underground. In the case of the Bunker Series, we mean that literally: head deep under the earth’s crust and shoot it out in a high-tech shelter built to withstand a thermonuclear Judgment Day. What’s not relaxing about that? To sweeten the deal, all subterranean modes included in the Bunker Series are dishing out double the usual payout to all combatants.

2X GTA$ & RP On Gunrunning Sales

If you’d rather make moves above the surface, you can always offload some of your precious contraband via Gunrunning Sales – they’re paying out 2X GTA$ & RP all week long. Satisfying demand has never felt so good. And should your lab rats need a boost, all Gunrunning Research speeds are doubled through January 27th, as well.

Faded Vapid Tee For Veteran Players

Brand loyalty is a valuable commodity these days. As a reward for their continued allegiance, players who already claimed the Vapid Tee during a previous GTA Online event will receive a rare Faded Vapid Tee, free of charge. This is the kind of irreplaceable vintage that collectors pay top dollar for – cherish it accordingly.

Podium Vehicle: Vapid Peyote Custom

Once you stumble out of your king-sized bed in the Penthouse, stop by the lobby of The Diamond Casino & Resort and give the Lucky Wheel a spin. This week, you could walk away with the keys to the Vapid Peyote Custom, an old-school lowrider and a carjacker’s dream.

ENDER LILIES: Quietus of the Knights Enters Steam Early Access Today

Nintendo Switch, PlayStation, Xbox Versions Launch Alongside Steam v1.0 in Q2 2021

TOKYO – Jan. 21, 2020 – ENDER LILIES: Quietus of the Knights, the dark fantasy metroidvania fairy tale from publisher Binary Haze Interactive, embarks on its Steam Early Access journey for Windows PC today. Explorers can now traverse the first three of at least eight areas in the final game.

Developers Live Wire, Adglobe Tokyo and Adglobe Montreal Studio will launch ENDER LILIES on PlayStation 5™ via backwards compatibility with the native PlayStation 4™ app, Xbox Series X|S™, and Nintendo Switch™ in Q2 2021 alongside the Steam 1.0 launch. An Xbox One™ version is also tentatively planned.

After waking up alone in a church with no memory of recent events, priestess Lily finds the surrounding hamlet and woods occupied only by the undead. A cursed rain falls upon the Ruined Kingdom, and only Lily can purify the corruption and free its denizens from the blight. Guide the priestess through areas beautifully illustrated in a Japanese dark fantasy aesthetic in search of the source of trouble. 

Defeat challenging bosses, then exorcise them to receive visions showing glimpses of the past and recruit the fallen champions as equippable companions. Mix and match their souls to create a ghostly bodyguard squad perfect for every situation, from directed ranged and melee attacks or autonomous assaults on any foes unfortunate enough to come within reach.

Mili, musical veteran of anime shows such as Ghost in the Shell and Goblin Slayer as well as rhythm games with millions of fans like Cytus and Deemo, contributes haunting melodies to ENDER LILIES. Sound effects by former Sega producer Keiichi Sugiyama, whose past work includes franchises like Rez and Skies of Arcadia, complete the poignant audio for the title.

“Mili and Sugiyama-san have been amazing partners for ENDER LILIES. Their work, combined with our artists’ gorgeous vision, creates an immersive dark fantasy atmosphere,” said Hiroyuki Kobayashi, CEO, Binary Haze Interactive. “Action RPG fans will find a lot to love, not only in the beauty of the Ruined Kingdom, but also in the tight and fast-paced gameplay.”

Purchase ENDER LILIES: Quietus of the Knights on Steam for $19.99 USD / 19,99€ Euros / £15.49 GBP / ¥70.00 CNY. Enjoy the story in English, Japanese, French, German, Spanish (Spain), Korean, Chinese (Simplified), Chinese (Traditional) Italian, Portuguese (Brazil), or Russian.

The classic RPG Kowloon Highschool Chronicle is coming to the West!

Rolling Hills Estates, California – January 21st, 2021 – Arc System Works America, Inc. is pleased to announce that Kowloon Highschool Chronicle, the classic PS2-era Adventure RPG, is being released in English for the first time on the Nintendo Switch on February 4th, 2021 for $29.99 USD! Originally released as Kowloon Youma Gakuen Ki in Japan, Kowloon Highschool Chronicle features remastered graphics, classic first-person dungeon exploration, and a unique conversation system.

Take on the role of a young man who appears as a transfer student at Kamiyoshi Academy in Shinjuku, Tokyo. While he seems like a normal student, he is actually a treasure hunter. His mission is to discover a mysterious ruin hidden deep beneath the school. Accompanied by his new friends from school, he sets out to discover the mysteries of a super ancient civilization. However, numerous traps, monsters called “Kehito” that lurk within the ruins, and the clutches of the “student council” stand in his way! Build your relationship with friends, solve puzzles, dodge traps, defeat enemies, and discover the great mysteries and treasure sealed beneath the school!

Key Features

Deep, Challenging Gameplay: Choose from a myriad of different friends, classmates, and allies and brave the darkest of dungeons in search of adventure and untold wealth. Be sure to build your team with care; the enemies and dungeons will present a true challenge and the wrong teammates may lead you to certain doom.


Innovative Conversation System: Express yourself in the story through feelings and actions. Why choose a canned response when you can give a character an angry glare, loving touch, or a bizarre lick? How everyone views you depends on how straight (or insane) you present yourself.

Revamped Graphics: Bringing the game firmly into the modern era, the art and graphics have been redone in high definition and now match the beautiful character designs, challenging gameplay and compelling story.
