These sick beats can’t stop ‘cause they won’t stop!

SINGAPORE – October 29, 2020 – Free Fire, one of the world’s most popular mobile games, drops the beat on its latest Elite Pass (EP), Ultrasonic Rave. The new EP shines the spotlight on a supercity where music can be used to bring people together or tear them apart in a number of ways. With other countries trying to steal this technology for themselves, Ultrasonic Guards Cooper and Candy are tasked with keeping the peace and keeping the city’s tech out of the hands of outsiders. Rewards for the Ultrasonic Rave EP include the Stage Master and Starlet skins, the Victory Tune backpack skin, the Mic Drop grenade skin, and more.

For years, the city in the Ultrasonic Rave EP has kept itself tucked away from the rest of the world, developing a sound-based technology that can be used as weaponry. Shortly after its borders were finally reopened, city guards have seen an uptick in foreigners sneaking into the music capital to discover its secrets. Two of the best guards, Ultrasonic Guards Cooper and Candy, have been hitting the streets and challenging troublemakers to musical showdowns. These performances have given them the reputation of being the best beat-fighters and show-downers, both inside and out of town.

In the Ultrasonic Rave EP, Survivors can dress up as either Stage Master Cooper or Stage Starlet Candy and earn the respect of their opponents. To complete their amazing fresh look, they can earn the Victory Tune backpack skin, the Tomb of Boom lootbox skin, the Ultrasonic Rave surfboard, and end their skirmishes with the Mic Drop grenade skin.

The Ultrasonic Rave EP features a retro hip-hop style aesthetic. Both Cooper and Candy can be seen wearing oversized iconic golden accessories, baggy pants, puffy jackets, and a matching arcade game special effect. Once Survivors are done waving their hands in the air, they can download Free Fire at the following locations:

• Apple iOS App Store: https://apps.apple.com/US/app/id1300146617?mt=8 
• Google Play Store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.dts.freefireth&hl=en_US

ABOUT THE LAST BLADE SERIES 

In 1997, SNK introduced the world to THE LAST BLADE, a weapon-based combo fighter set in the final years of Edo Japan. Soon after in 1998, its sequel THE LAST BLADE 2: Heart of the Samurai launched.

The series is known for its unique gameplay, beautiful scenery and distinct and interesting characters. Its music and setting has been praised by fighting game fans around the world, many of which are anxiously awaiting another sequel.

It has been praised by gamers for its intuitive controls, responsive thumbstick and stylish design.

A Closer Look at How Xbox Series X|S Integrates Full AMD RDNA 2 Architecture

by Andrew Goossen, Technical Fellow, and Jason Ronald, Director of Program Management

We here at Team Xbox would like to congratulate and celebrate our amazing partners at AMD on today’s announcement of the Radeon RX 6000 Series of RDNA 2 GPUs. It was incredible to see AMD demonstrate the power and potential that the new AMD RDNA 2 architecture can deliver to gamers around the globe. AMD continues to be an industry leader in CPU and GPU innovation, bringing next-generation capabilities to the PC, console and cloud.

The long-term strategic relationship between Xbox and AMD over the past 15 years, beginning with the Xbox 360, is at the heart of the Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S. With the upcoming launch of the Xbox Series X|S on November 10, together we are ushering in the next generation of gaming delivering a level of power, performance and compatibility never before seen in console gaming, powered by AMD’s latest “Zen 2” and RDNA 2 architectures. Xbox Series X|S are the only next-generation consoles with full hardware support for all the RDNA 2 capabilities AMD showcased today.

AMD’s latest RDNA 2 architecture delivers a significant increase in performance and efficiency over previous architectures, as well as adding new hardware acceleration capabilities including hardware accelerated DirectX Raytracing, Mesh Shaders, Sampler Feedback and Variable Rate Shading. Hardware accelerated DirectX Raytracing, showcased at launch by titles such as Ubisoft’s Watch Dogs: Legion, enables developers to deliver a new level of visual fidelity and immersion through techniques such as realistic lighting, shadows, reflections and acoustics. Mesh Shaders can manipulate geometry in real time to provide a high level of fidelity and flexibility that developers have never had before. Sampler Feedback greatly improves memory efficiency by allowing games to load into memory, with fine granularity, only the portions of textures that the GPU needs for a scene, as it needs it, providing an effective 2.5x memory and bandwidth multiplier beyond the raw hardware capabilities. Sampler Feedback also enables efficient creation and shading of textures on-demand.

Finally, Variable Rate Shading (VRS) delivers much finer grain control on how developers can leverage the full power of the Xbox Series X|S by enabling developers to focus their GPU resources on the areas of a frame that most benefit without reducing the overall image quality. By leveraging techniques like VRS, games such as Gears 5 can see performance increases up to 15% and beyond resulting in higher, more consistent frame rates and resolution at the exact same image quality. All of these next-generation capabilities are available via hardware in both the Xbox Series X and Series S and we are excited for them to also come to PC, providing a common set of features that developers can rely on when developing their games across console and PC.

At the very beginning of development of the Xbox Series X | S, we knew we were setting the foundation for the next decade of gaming innovation and performance across console, PC and cloud. To deliver on this vision we wanted to leverage the full capabilities of RDNA 2 in hardware from day one. Through close collaboration and partnership between Xbox and AMD, not only have we delivered on this promise, we have gone even further introducing additional next-generation innovation such as hardware accelerated Machine Learning capabilities for better NPC intelligence, more lifelike animation, and improved visual quality via techniques such as ML powered super resolution.

In our quest to put gamers and developers first we chose to wait for the most advanced technology from our partners at AMD before finalizing our architecture. Now, with the upcoming release of Xbox Series X|S and the new AMD Radeon RX 6000 Series GPUs, developers have a common set of next-generation tools and performance capabilities that will empower them to deliver transformative gaming experiences across both console and PC.

We are extremely proud of the results gamers will see at launch from titles such as Gears 5, Assassin’s Creed Valhalla, Dirt 5, and many, many more, but we are even more excited by how developers will be able to take further advantage of these next-generation innovations in the future, resulting in a level of visual fidelity and immersion never before thought possible in console gaming.

We want to thank AMD for their continued partnership, and we congratulate them on the announcements today as they usher in the next generation of graphics technology into the PC ecosystem. With less than two weeks from the global launch of Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S on November 10, we can’t wait to kick off the next decade of gaming with you.
