FREE RADICAL DESIGN REFORMS

Development Commencing on next TimeSplitters; Deep Silver confirmed as publisher

Sydney, Australia, 20th May 2021 | Today Deep Silver announces the formation of a new studio that will bring the much-loved TimeSplitters brand back to life. Key original members of the Free Radical Design team, including founders Steve Ellis and David Doak, have re-united to reform Free Radical Design.

The highly-regarded Free Radical Design team has a 22-year heritage under various guises and is responsible for some of the best-loved, most iconic videogames of the early 2000s, including TimeSplitters – the first title it released in 2000. The critically acclaimed TimeSplitters series went on to include two further iterations, all of which were loaded with humorous pop culture references as players battle across various locations and historical periods.  “It’s this unique style that earned the TimeSplitters series a large and passionate following who will, without doubt, be excited by the formation of Deep Silver’s latest studio and will look forward to learning more as the franchise moves forward” said Paul Nicholls, Global Brand and Marketing Director, Deep Silver.

“To finally be able to confirm that the studio has been formed and that we have a plan for the next TimeSplitters game is incredible,” commented Steve Ellis, Studio Development Director, Free Radical Design. “While we cannot tell you anything more at the moment, we look forward to sharing information in the future.”

The Free Radical Design team will commence development on the next TimeSplitters game in the coming months; for now they are concentrating on building the studio, which will be situated in the Nottingham area. Open positions within the studio will be advertised in due course.

Free Radical Design is a Deep Silver studio following the purchase of the TimeSplitters IP by Deep Silver owners Koch Media in 2018.

Reina & Jericho Time Travels to PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S in Q3 2021

Reina & Jericho Time Travels to PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S in Q3 2021

EDMONTON, Alberta – May 19, 2021 – Reina & Jericho, the touching metroidvania from Reclamation Games following a woman’s time-bending journey to save the love of her life, takes the fight for freedom to PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S in Q3 2021 alongside the previously announced Nintendo Switch and PC versions.

As a corrupt and tyrannical regime collapses, Reina witnesses the abduction of her lover, Jericho, by the forces of her former oppressors. In a desperate attempt to rescue Jericho, Reina follows them into a mysterious subterranean facility teeming with deadly devices and supernatural artifacts that are the key to regaining power.

Trapped in this underground fortress, Reina realizes she is in possession of a necklace imbued with the power to allow her to revisit the recent past and undo her mistakes. Wielding the power to manipulate cause and effect, Reina must decide how far she’s willing to go in order to save herself, rescue Jericho, and exact her revenge on those that brought them here.

Collect artifacts to slice through robot enemies and armed guards while gathering the power-ups left behind to enhance Reina’s skills. Stop by the ornate fountains wielding healing waters to restore her health, double back to the past to right any wrongs and survive the many traps laid out against her by the powerful henchmen controlling the failing state.

Navigate an adventure with multiple possible endings across three game types. Alongside Story mode and Speedrun mode, Randomizer ensures no detail is ever the same in Reina’s mission as she sets out to rescue the love of her life. Set to a moving soundtrack featuring emotive live recordings, Reina and Jericho presents stylized environments, intense gameplay, and a powerful story about love, regret and the consequences of our choices.

“With Reina & Jericho, we set out to create a game where the narrative impacts players just as much as the mechanics and action,” said Dave Wightman, Founder and CEO, Reclamation Games. “We’ve combined an action-packed platformer with a powerful story to teach us lessons about love, life, and what it takes to do the right thing in the face of pain and adversity. It’s a tale we can’t wait to share with everyone on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S later this year.”

Reina & Jericho will be available on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch and Steam for Windows PC for $19.99 in Q3 2021.

STORY OF SEASONS Series Sales Flourish at 25th Anniversary ‒ Pioneers of Olive Town Becomes XSEED Games’ Fastest Selling Title Ever, Friends of Mineral Town Hits New Milestone

Latest Entry Sees Steady Supply of Post-launch Enhancements and Expansions

TORRANCE, Calif. ‒ May 19, 2021 ‒ XSEED Games, the independent-minded publishing brand of Marvelous USA, Inc., is proud to announce that the Nintendo Switch™ system farm/life sim game STORY OF SEASONS: Pioneers of Olive Town is the company’s fastest-selling title with over 200,000 units sold on a single platform in North America. This milestone was reached within 2 months of its March release, breaking the record previously held by STORY OF SEASONS: Friends of Mineral Town, which took five months to reach 200,000 units sold before continuing on to reach a new sales milestone of over 250,000 units sold on Nintendo Switch in North America from its debut last July. The game has been receiving a steady stream of updates since launch to improve the player experience, with more improvements planned as the development team continues to listen to fan feedback.

The tireless Mayor Victor is reviewing all feedback left at the local Tourist Information Center, offering the following comment about the future of his beloved Olive Town:“Olive Town is an invaluable treasure to us all, tourist and resident alike. We’ve come a long way from our humble beginnings, and we’re just getting started! The townsfolk and I have been busy collaborating on new improvements and attractions to welcome both veteran tourists and folks who might be new to our shores. Of course, we wouldn’t be where we are today without the courageous farmers who helped spread the word about our humble community. From OLIVE us here at Olive Town, you have our sincerest thanks!”

Known as Bokujo Monogatari in Japan, the critically-acclaimed franchise is celebrating its 25th anniversary with phased DLC releases for the STORY OF SEASONS: Pioneers of Olive Town ‘Expansion Pass’. Released in five-parts, the bundle includes story content, new characters, and exclusive costumes, providing fresh experiences for the inhabitants of Olive Town. The DLC kicked off recently with Animal Attire costumes for the protagonists and marriage candidates, and ‘Olive Town Mystery Files,’ the first of a series of two sub-scenarios. The ‘Windswept Falls Expansion Pack’ will be released later this month with a new area home to four characters from a past entry on the Nintendo 3DS™ system – including two marriage candidates. Additional details about the ‘Expansion Pass’ can be found here.

About STORY OF SEASONS: Pioneers of Olive Town

STORY OF SEASONS: Pioneers of Olive Town is a brand-new adventure that drops eager explorers in Olive Town, a charming seaside community on the edge of the untamed frontier, where they will work to breathe life back into their grandfather’s dilapidated farm. Though it may at first appear to be a sleepy burg, Olive Town is home to dozens of unique characters to befriend when players are ready to take a break from building their dream farm – a dream farm where further exploration of the farm can yield magical lands where seasons never change, an island in the sky and even a unicorn to ride!

Developed by Marvelous Inc. and published by XSEED Games in North America on the Nintendo Switch™ system, STORY OF SEASONS: Pioneers of Olive Town launched on Mar. 23, 2021. The title has been rated “E for Everyone” on Nintendo Switch by the ESRB.
