They Bleed Pixels Release Date Announced For Nintendo Switch™

Wreak havoc as a demonic little girl in this blood soaked platforming slash’em up

Toronto, Canada – 10/15/20 – Sharpen your claws! Indie cult classic They Bleed Pixels will be released in the Nintendo eShop Oct 22nd for $14.99 USD.

“With They Bleed Pixels we wanted to make a platforming game where the combat and platforming had equal weight, and a big part of that is the game’s unique checkpoint system” says game designer Miguel Sternberg, “In They Bleed Pixels checkpoints are like a power up, and you’ll have to pull off fancy kills to earn them quickly. The game’s large levels really give each checkpoint weight, driving the player towards mixing it up. Kicking enemies into the air, saws, spikes, juggles, whatever it takes to fill that checkpoint meter faster!”

Originally released for PC in 2012, They Bleed Pixels balances a perfect mix of fast-paced acrobatic platforming and fierce, one-button, slash’em up combat. By suppressing their urge to button mash in favour of focusing on stylish and smart kills, players are rewarded with a checkpoint they can choose when to place for safety… or try their luck by holding onto it for extra bonus points.

Features:

  • Hardcore original difficulty, plus an easier novice mode, to match a wide range of skills. 
  • Striking art style mixes low-fi pixel art with organic ink and paper textures. 
  • Lush gothic-cute motion comics tell the story of a young girl haunted by eldritch nightmares.
  • Become a monster stabbing master or platforming speedrunner with individual level rankings, online leaderboards and 150 skill-based badges.

ATELIER RYZA 2: LOST LEGENDS & THE SECRET FAIRY SET TO LAUNCH ACROSS EUROPE JANUARY 29, 2021

ATELIER RYZA 2: LOST LEGENDS & THE SECRET FAIRY SET TO LAUNCH ACROSS EUROPE JANUARY 29, 2021

Ryza 2 Introduces All-New Characters and an Evolved Battle System into the Popular JRPG Series

Hertfordshire, 15th October 2020 – Today, KOEI TECMO Europe and developer GUST Studios announced that Atelier Ryza 2: Lost Legends & the Secret Fairy will be released across Europe on the 29th January 2021 for Nintendo Switch™, Windows PC via Steam®, PlayStation®4, and digitally on PlayStation®5*. The 22nd entry into the magical Atelier franchise follows Ryza and friends as they set out in an all-new JRPG quest to discover the secrets behind the ancient ruins and the truth behind the lost legends inside the Royal Capital.  

In Atelier Ryza 2: Lost Legends & the Secret Fairy, Ryza is not only joined by returning fan-favourites like Lent Marslink and Tao Mongarten, she also meets a number of new characters who will help her throughout her adventure. Inside the Academy District café, Ryza meets a young woman by the name of Zephine Baudouin. Zephine manages the request bulletin board inside the café, and the bulletin board becomes a key part of Ryza’s day-to-day exploits – it’s used by citizens of the Royal Capital to post jobs ranging from delivering materials to defeating monsters – and as Ryza completes these tasks, she will be compensated with monetary rewards, materials, and even Skill Points. Other intriguing characters inside the Royal Capital include the talented blacksmith and engraver, Dennis Holland; shopkeeper and former acquaintance from Kurken Island, Romy Vogel; and farmworker Cassandra Cappelli, whose father owns an obscene amount of fruitful land inside the Royal Capital’s Farming District.

As Ryza and friends embark on their journey, they encounter enemies and monsters throughout the land, and madness and mayhem ensue. Parties now include three battle members and one sub-member, and all heroes will now be aided in the game’s exhilarating real-time tactics battles, thanks to the ability to stack Action Points and Core Charge. As party members build up Action Points, characters will be able to unleash multiple Skills in a row via a Skill Chain. By using the Skill Chain ability, the power of all skills increases as well as the amount of Core Charge gained in each attack – the function needed in order to also use items – enabling you to unleash devastating attacks like throwing waves of bombs! In addition, by using skills your gauge fills up and after it exceeds a specific amount, your Tactics Level increases. As your Tactics Level increases, the amount of times your regular attacks hit also increases, and Action Points begin to build up quicker. If your Tactics Level reaches the max, you can activate a special technique: The Fatal Drive!

Along with the new gameplay and character details, KOEI TECMO also revealed that fans of the Atelier series will also be able to get their hands on a delightful Limited Edition of Atelier Ryza 2: Lost Legends & the Secret Fairy, exclusively available through the KOEI TECMO Europe Online Store. This must-have version of the game contains an art book, deluxe cloth poster, mini acrylic charm, Japanese clear file folders, and an exclusive DLC costume all packaged into a beautiful collector’s box. Gamers who pre-order this version through the KOEI TECMO Europe Online Store will also receive the “Beware of Puni!” and “Blue Puni Costume” t-shirt DLC for Ryza in game!

Players who purchase any version of the game, physically or digitally, during the first two weeks of release will receive an Early Purchase Bonus – the Summer Fashion Costume Set. Furthermore, those who have save data from Atelier Ryza: Ever Darkness & the Secret Hideout will also be able to unlock the Classic Costume Set, including outfits for Ryza and her friends from the previous title.

For all of the latest news on Atelier Ryza 2: Lost Legends & the Secret Fairy, check out the official site, ‘Like’ us on www.facebook.com/koeitecmogames, www.facebook.com/ateliergames, and Follow us on Twitter @koeitecmoeurope.

Think fast and strategically as you weave through a bullet hell of your own making!

Your objective is to survive for as long as possible without getting hit by your own projectiles. Survive for long enough and you can release a primordial blast of dark energy, detonating your projectiles in glorious chain reactions. Inspired by the spherical maps of Super Stardust and the short, intense action of Devil DaggersTERROR SQUID is an endlessly addictive test of strategy and reflexes. Only the best players will manage to survive for even a minute in this unholy vector graphics apocalypse. Destroy worlds, ascend the leaderboards, and become one with the void in TERROR SQUID.

TERROR SQUID has had quite the journey going from a game jam prototype to an actual arcade cabinet in Oslo (at Tilt), to a fully fledged commercial game on a Nintendo console and Steam,” said Creative Director Syver Lauritzsen. “We think its accessible nature, deep strategy, and sadistic challenge make it a cruelly addictive ‘one more good game’ flow state experience in whichever form you choose to play it. ”
