COULD A SUSPICIOUS CASE BE SOLVED BY CHICKENS?

LET’S FIND OUT IF YOU’RE CHICKEN ENOUGH! CHICKEN POLICE IS AVAILABLE STARTING NOVEMBER 5TH!

Eger, Hungary/Giebelstadt, Germany, October 20th, 2020:
Sonny Featherland and Marty MacChicken, aka the “Chicken Police”, once a legendary detective-duo – now a washed-up wreck and a wannabe star-detective. But things are about to change when a mysterious case comes along, getting weirder by the hour and more dangerous than anything the two have faced before.

Chicken Police is developed by The Wild Gentlemen in Hungary. The game is published by HandyGames in Giebelstadt, Germany, and will be available for 19,99 ( EUR / USD / GBP ) starting November 5th on Steam, Xbox One and Playstation 4. Coming soon to Nintendo Switch.

Maybe the most important thing is that the mood and the atmosphere must be coherent. In creating narrative games, you must pay attention to a lot of things that the player maybe won’t even notice (or will be affected only subconsciously), but all in all, I believe everything stands on the characters, whom we’ll learn to love or hate to be breathing with them within the world they live in.

It all depends on whether you, the player, want to know, is the character have a life outside of the game? If the answer is yes, you, as a writer, did your job well.” said Bánk, Director of Chicken Police

SQUAD-BASED RPG BATTLE HUNTERS LAUNCH DATE MOVES TO EARLY NOVEMBER FOR PC AND NINTENDO SWITCH

Phase Two Games Action RPG Gets Busy Preparing for Battle

Melbourne, Australia – October 20th 2020 – Independent developer Phase Two Games today announced that their squad-based fantasy adventure RPG Battle Hunters is now moving to a slightly later launch date. The new tentative street date  for PC and Nintendo Switch is November 5th.

“The old adage that time waits for no man is certainly true in our case, we wanted to synchronize the final submission phase and release efforts and felt we needed a little more time to coordinate that,” said Toby Charlton, Co-Founder of Phase Two Games.

https://youtu.be/9s8nI0U4YD8

With a more strategic approach to combat through a combination of turn-based and real-time action, Battle Hunters gives players the opportunity to build a uniquely skilled team of 3 adventurers ready for action. With a roster of 28 unique hero characters to discover and choose from, including the Wizard, the Barbarian, the Rogue or the cursed Dreadknight – Battle Hunters provides a huge variety of choice when deciding who to bring to the fight.

At Phase Two Games we are determined to produce quality experiences with a small, talented team. We have deliberately stepped away from large-scale corporate-style production to pursue a more traditional style of development in the hope that our games can be free of influences that undermine the creative vision. We love games, and hope you enjoy playing the games we make.

MONSTER SANCTUARY TO BREAK FREE FROM EARLY ACCESS AND LAND ON PC & CONSOLES ON 8th DECEMBER

Uncover the encroaching mystery threatening humanity and monsters, and become the true Monster Keeper heir, as Monster Sanctuary escapes into the wild next month.

Tuesday, 20th October 2020 – Team17 and Moi Rai Games are today announcing that monster taming, Metroidvania, role-playing game, Monster Sanctuary, is exiting Steam Early Access and will launch on PC on 8th December. The game will also launch simultaneously that day on PlayStation® 4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch™. As the youngest heir of an ancient bloodline of Monster Keepers, players set out to follow in their ancestors’ footsteps, all the while unpicking a mystery that threatens the long-standing peace between humans and monsters.

Begin your journey as the next great Monster Keeper with this new trailer:

During its year in Early Access, Monster Sanctuary has expanded with a series of significant updates that broaden its fantastical world, such as the introduction of player vs player gameplay, and new areas to explore: the volcanic Magma Chamber, the claustrophobic Underworld, and the mechanical Mystical Workshop. Each has expanded on the menagerie of monsters available for players to track down and tame, and added new gameplay opportunities to explore.

The full launch of Monster Sanctuary in December will introduce further content for players to experience as they embark on their epic adventure, including the Abandoned Tower as an entirely new game area, as well as an additional secret area. 14 new monsters will also be joining the roster, alongside optional endgame Champions; Ultimate abilities for monsters above level 40; unique equipment; and further balancing changes.

Key Features:

  • Overcome and collect beasts: Creatures great and small are available to collect and battle, and can be upgraded via deep skill trees
  • Become the best Monster Keeper: A mysterious force threatens the peace between monsters and humans, and players will unravel these secrets through the story
  • Battle in tactical 3v3 combat: Player rosters of monsters can fight AI or other players in a turn-based 3v3 system, using elemental attacks and combos to devastating effect
  • Discover a deep Metroidvania world: From the depths of the Underworld to the heights of the Snowy Peaks, there is plenty to explore, and hidden areas to uncover using monster skills
  • Items and gear aplenty: Players will find a plethora of useful items on their journey, which may even open new avenues of navigation.

Denis Sinner, Managing Director, Moi Rai Games, said:

“The full release of the game will bring an exciting five-year journey to an end. Monster Sanctuary originally started out as a hobby project of mine while having a normal day job, and back then I couldn’t imagine that it would be released as a full-fledged game on multiple platforms with a publisher on my side. Ever since we launched the game into Early Access last year, the community feedback we’ve received has helped to improve the game and make it the best possible experience.”

Monster Sanctuary will launch digitally on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and PC on 8th December for £15.99/€19.99/$19.99. To keep up to date with all the information on Monster Sanctuary please like us on Facebook, follow us on Twitter, and join us on Discord.

HYPER SCAPE™‘S HALLOWEEN EVENT STARTS TOMORROW

HYPER SCAPE‘S HALLOWEEN EVENT STARTS TOMORROW

SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA — October 20, 2020 —Halloween is coming to the Hyper Scape, taking over Neo Arcadia from tomorrow, October 21, until November 4 across all platforms. The Hyper Scape Halloween Event is the first major seasonal celebration coming to the game: it includes exclusive new cosmetics, a full Halloween night dress-up for Neo Arcadia and two limited-time game modes starting with Crown Rush Solo and continuing later with Dark Haze Squad. The Crown Rush Squad game mode will be also playable during the entirety of the event.

Players will be able to try out Crown Rush Solo in a brand new, exclusive environment since the full map will be in night mode. Additionally, Crown Rush Solo is receiving a major twist with the introduction of the Second Chance – a new game feature allowing players to come back from the dead. During the first few minutes of the match, players who are knocked out in combat will be sent back to deployment pods instead of being eliminated, earning themselves a Second Chance.

In the event’s second week starting on October 27, things will get extra spooky as a thick Halloween fog will also be covering the city in the brand-new Dark Haze Squad mode. With limited visibility, no Crown and an arsenal reduced to a selection of weapons and hacks, players will have to work together with their squad to track and eliminate all opposition to get victorious.

During the event players will also have the opportunity to purchase a selection of new exclusive Halloween-themed cosmetics available in the game’s store, including new Champion outfits, new deployment pods, new weapon skins and more.

Hyper Scape is an urban, fast-paced, free-to-play Battle Royale game developed by Ubisoft Montreal and now available on PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One. Hyper Scape’s Season Two ‘The Aftermath’ introduced a new weapon, a new landmark on the map, new game modes and updated Hyper Scape Crowncast features as well as new story elements. Set in the virtual city of Neo Arcadia, up to 100 players face each other to become champion of the Hyper Scape.

SOLASTA: CROWN OF THE MAGISTER AVAILABLE NOW ON STEAM EARLY ACCESS

Grab your D20, Ready your Party and Prepare for an Epic Campaign

PARIS, FRANCE – OCTOBER 20, 2020 – French development studio and veteran pen and paper players, Tactical Adventures announced today its tactical RPG, Solasta: Crown of the Magister, is available now on Steam Early Access for $29.75 (a 15% launch discount). The Solasta: Crown of the Magister Early Access campaign features brand new elements of verticality, a unique team-based adventure and over 10 hours of authentic tabletop gameplay.

Watch the Solasta: Crown of the Magister narrative launch trailer:

Wizards of the Coast has granted Tactical Adventures a license to use the Dungeons & Dragons SRD 5.1 content and rules in Solasta: Crown of the Magister.

Solasta: Crown of the Magister is a party-based adventure where each character plays a critical role in the campaign and can be a hero. The dynamic and mysterious world features elements of verticality, allowing players to use their surroundings as an element of strategy. Players can position ranged characters on high vantage points or send their thief down into shafts and caverns to scope out what lies ahead. In Solasta: Crown of the Magister, light is a tool to explore the depths and hollows of dungeons or can be used as a weapon against the creatures in the dark, but if players aren’t careful, it will give away the party’s position to nasty creatures bent on their demise.

Solasta: Crown of the Magister Features:

  • Verticality: Solasta is a three-dimensional world, rather than a series of flat maps. Locations can be explored by climbing walls, flying, teleporting, crawling through tunnels, finding secret passages, or falling through unstable ground, allowing the player to use the environment to take on encounters in multiple different ways.
  • Team Based Adventure: Players will have many options to choose races, classes, backgrounds, and can even roll for stats as they create their party. All members are essential – together you will adventure through Solasta as a group, where you must work together in pursuit of your quest.
  • Tactical CRPG: Each encounter can be handled in multiple ways. Will you use the high ground to strike your enemies from above as a Darkweaver Rogue, or shove your enemies into deep chasms as a Mountaineer Fighter? Your choices alone will determine the destiny of your party.
  • Light: Light will not only help to see your surroundings as you explore deep underground or in a dungeon. It can also be used as a weapon against the light-fearing creatures you will encounter along your journey. Careful, though – light can also give away your position.
  • Created by Tabletop Players: Tactical Adventures is a team of highly experienced Tabletop players and veteran game developers who are passionate about the genre, striving to create the best Tactical RPG video game

Solasta: Crown of the Magister is available now on Steam Early Access.
