Action RPG Hindsight 20/20’s Spring Multi-Platform Launch Now Includes PlayStation 5

Embrace the Twists and Turns of Fate on Sony’s Platforms, Nintendo Switch, Xbox One, PC

AUSTIN, Texas – February 1, 2021 – Hindsight 20/20: Wrath of the Raakshasa, the single-player action RPG game with morality-based decisions from the BioWare, ArenaNet, and Sucker Punch veterans at Triple-I Games, releases on PlayStation®5 in addition to PlayStation®4, Nintendo Switch™, Xbox One, and Windows via Steam this Spring. 

Hindsight 20/20’s PlayStation 5 version features 4K/60FPS, significantly faster load times, and rendering enhancements including improved ambient occlusion, motion blur, and bloom. 

The kingdom of Champaner cherishes life above all else, preferring to practice pacifism in place of wielding weapons. When a virus begins transforming residents into bloodthirsty beasts known as Raakshasas and a destructive rift fills the sky, those sacred values quickly come into question. Jehan, a mysterious man with one arm, unknowingly holds the fate of Champaner in the palm of his hand.

Mourning the loss of his recently-murdered father, Jehan finds himself torn between the pacifism he was taught to revere and a need for revenge. Choose between Merciful or Ruthless styles of combat, each with their own advantages and drawbacks. Strategically stun enemies to gain the respect of the people or eradicate foes quickly with a deadly sword. Each enemy and boss has different movesets and behaviors depending on the chosen style.

Decisions in Hindsight 20/20 have long-lasting repercussions, impacting the game and delivering branching story paths. Choices can appear obvious via dialogue or fighting methods, but destiny may have something completely unexpected in store for Jehan. Sometimes even travel time can make a difference. Move too slowly or get distracted helping townspeople and Jehan might not make it in time to save the day. 

Fight humans and monsters through Merciful or Ruthless means to save the kingdom. Earn new abilities for both styles of combat, stunning swathes of enemies or making jagged swords erupt from the ground. Forge Jehan’s personal path in a fantastical world filled with magic and technology, rendered in a tragically beautiful watercolor style. Honor the societal pressure to remain vigilant or descend into madness.

“We made the choice last year to utilize the extra time 2020 gave us and we are now ready to bring Hindsight to our wonderful followers and fans,” said Hemanshu Chhabra, creative director at Triple-I Games. “We amped up the choices, combat, cinematics, and even the framerate to make our game the best it can be when we launch later this year.”

Hindsight 20/20 will be available in English on PlayStation®5, PlayStation®4, Nintendo Switch™, Xbox One, and Windows via Steam in Q2 2021.

British Heavy Cruisers, German Cruiser Campaign, Aircraft Carriers Test, and Special Events

The first update to World of Warships: Legends in 2021 brings many exciting additions, most notably the first appearance of a new ship type—Aircraft Carriers! Besides that, there’s a new campaign for a German battlecruiser, British heavy cruisers, and a pair of special events for a new game mode and the Lunar New Year!

Aircraft Carriers are here at last. For the first two weeks of the update, players can battle with and against the early carriers Langley, Ranger, Hōshō, and Ryūjō in a separate Air Strike gamemode. To start playing in the new class, players will have to play a few battles of the Air Strike game mode first. Being a fundamentally different type of warship, aircraft carriers are defined by avoiding direct combat and using their aircraft to sink their enemies. These early carriers were experimental in many ways and their first arrival is also, as we will be gathering feedback from this event for future carrier releases! It’s an exciting addition to World of Warships: Legends, be sure to hop into a few Air Strike battles and try out the new ship type.

The new Dragonslayer campaign features the German battlecruiser Siegfried, a battle-hardened cruiser built with six powerful 15-inch guns and a set of torpedo launchers on each side. Designed as a heavy surface raider for the German navy, Siegfried is well protected too. Like the legendary hero she is named for, this ship is a mighty opponent on the field of battle. As the final reward of the campaign, players will need to pass through a hundred milestones over the next five weeks, completing a set of missions each week in order to command this “Dragonslayer” of yore. After completing the campaign, players can also continue completing missions to earn Steel.

There are some newcomers to the British tech tree in this update as well, a series of heavy cruisers. Starting at Tier IV, these ships carry powerful, low-velocity guns and are relatively well protected. Plus, they are well equipped with torpedoes, Sonar, and a Repair consumable. It’ll take clever positioning to get the most from these ships, but they are sure to shake things up! Players can take command of these ships in early access by opening British Cruiser Containers, plus get the new Union Jack camouflage for their ships.

A new Arena game mode is here as well, pitting players against each other in four teams of three ships. Starting after the Air Strike event on February 15th, players can prove their skills in this mode by climbing up a community-wide ladder during this seasonal event. The ultimate prize of the Arena mode is a stockpile of steel, a new resource to use to get equipment and unique vessels. Arena mode is a good way for the best players to get a boost towards unlocking the new steel-exclusive Tier VII premium battleship Missouri.

Of course, it would be remiss to forget Lunar New Year! Starting February 12th, there are a pair of collectable premium cruisers available, special event containers, unique camouflages. Plus, there’s a new port for the event throughout the update!

Unconventional RPG Adventure Everhood Explores Nintendo Switch, PC on 4 March

STOCKHOLM – 1 Feb., 2021 – Everhood, the unconventional RPG adventure from Foreign Gnomes where nothing is as it seems, unfurls existential mysteries and blasts musical battles onto Nintendo Switch and Steam for Windows PC Thursday, 4 March, 2021.

Sign the contract, sell your soul, and step into a mystical realm between the known planes of existence called Everhood. Here awakens the wooden doll Red, rising from a deep slumber to find a thief has stolen his arm. Red sets out in search of his missing limb and unknowingly begins to pull at a thread that may unravel reality as the world knows it. 

Wander through the doors of existence on Red’s quest and cross paths with the bizarre beings that call this place home. Join these charming characters as they try to pass the time and whittle away eternity by racing go-karts, overcoming obstacle courses, and playing board games. But be prepared to face the music at a moment’s notice, as not every immortal is the kindly sort.

Square off against a banjo-loving frog, sentient ATM, nearly nude knight, and a myriad of other odd opponents in unique dance battles. Move and groove to dodge oncoming fire. Perform evasive maneuvers to outlast Red’s rivals while jamming out to bespoke boss fight themes that range from twangy chiptunes to heavy industrial beats and span everything in between.

Bring world-altering revelations to light on and off the dance floor as Red’s journey tugs at reality’s seams. Choose between a range of five difficulty options to enjoy everything from a narrative-focused experience to blistering challenges. Then return to the realm in New Game Plus to discover additional secrets or test those skills in an ultra-hard unlockable mode.

“Everhood is a wild ride teeming with twists, turns, and plenty of mysteries to uncover,” said Chris Nordgren, co-founder, Foreign Gnomes. “We can’t wait to share our weird world when Everhood arrives on Switch and PC on 4 March. Just be prepared to be unprepared!”

Everhood launches on Nintendo Switch for $14.99 and Steam on 4 March for $9.99. It features English, Chinese (Simplified and Traditional), and Japanese language options.

In its first Devstream of the year, Digital Extremes hinted at a few key elements of Warframe®’s promising plans for 2021. Revealing the next update name, Call of the Tempestarii (pronounced “Tem-pest-are-ee”), Digital Extremes’ mystical theme for Update 30 is couched in ethereal tones, chaotic Void Storms and a redemptive lore-filled Quest. Featuring prominently in the update’s lore is the next Warframe, “Sevagoth”, whose unique Abilities include a second “Reaper form”. 

Devstream 151 revealed the first Prime Access of the year, the musical player favorite “Octavia Prime”, replete with exclusive Shawzin, fresh details on two new seasonal activities, and Quality of Life Dojo upgrades. Players will see a snazzy new Zephyr Deluxe included in the update, featuring upgraded Deluxe Landing Craft, Animations and UI. 

Currently in development for a March release, Call of the Tempestarii will offer quintessential Warframe content and new wrinkles in Railjack gameplay. From the all new Corpus Railjack space combat spotlighting omnipotent Capital Ships, chaotic Void Storms and Command Intrinsics, DE will weave the recent Orphix Venom mech battles into missions to vary Railjack with more core gameplay. Call of the Tempestarii is yet another step in delivering a better Railjack experience.

Sevagoth, the 46th Warframe, digs into the ethereal by sowing, reaping and draining enemy souls. Sevagoth offers four classic Warframe Abilities plus the powerful second ‘Wraith’ meter, which, when full, unleashes an exalted Reaper form with three base powers. Check out the full Devstream here for first gameplay demo details!
