Space Raiders in Space Launches Comedic Comic-Inspired Tower Defense on PC Today

Space Raiders in Space Launches Comedic Comic-Inspired Tower Defense on PC Today

GLIWICE, Poland – Dec. 8, 2020 – Space Raiders in Space, the tower defense roguelike with pulp comic style from publisher Destructive Creations and developed by 2 Stupid Devs, gets the hell out of Early Access and starts blasting aliens on Steam today. The 1.0 version introduces an expansive new story mode and a raider’s bounty of levels and more.

Years after grizzled war hero Andy and Xeno-biologist Heather make first contact with an alien force dubbed The Hivemind, a friendship between Homo sapiens and the strange creatures exists among the stars. But when The Hivemind suddenly attacks, Andy, Heather, and an unlikely assortment of allies start shooting and save the questions for later. There’s probably a good reason for their attack, but, eh, who spoils the whole plot in a press release?

Embark on a pulpy sci-fi saga in an all-new story campaign told through more than forty pages of classic comic-inspired art, complete with campy voice acting. Play intergalactic exterminator in tactical combat blending tower defense strategy with roguelike action gameplay. Prepare defenses, issue orders to crew members, and topple The Hivemind’s deadly waves of aliens with all manner of over-the-top weaponry.

Wield Super Time Stop PowersTM (isn’t that just a pause button?) to take a breather during battles to issue commands and re-assess the field. Lay traps, assault turrets, and more devious contraptions to halt the alien’s advances and tailor the arena to your murderous tastes. Each character’s innate abilities and skills offer much-needed boons. But be prepared, as some traits might produce undesirable effects. They’re only human, after all. Gross little meatbags, really.

Fight through the nine-chapter story mode to see Andy and Heather’s adventure unfold across exotic locales like abandoned cities, derelict spaceships, and an interstellar strip club before returning to battle in Endless modes. Soak in the scenery and scenarios infused with humorous writing, science-fiction sendups, and a healthy dose of pulpy easter eggs.

“With Space Raiders in Space, even our title is a joke, but we have surprises up our sleeves,” said Loren, the literate half of the 2 Stupid Devs. “Show up for some stupid jokes and walk away pleasantly surprised by a deeper-than-expected story and addictive, fun gameplay.”

Space Raiders in Space is now available on PC via Steam in English. Share some beets with the devs on their Discord server and follow on Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, and Twitch for more information. Request a review key through this form.

MARVEL’S AVENGERS OPERATION: KATE BISHOP – TAKING AIM NOW AVAILABLE

MARVEL’S AVENGERS OPERATION: KATE BISHOP – TAKING AIM NOW AVAILABLE

New Hero, Story, Villain, and More Available Today at No Additional Cost

SYDNEY, 9th December 2020 – Today, SQUARE ENIX® announced that the first new playable Super Hero, and star of the all-new Marvel’s Avengers Operation: Kate Bishop – Taking AIM, is now available for free download for all game owners. In addition to Kate Bishop, the new playable Super Hero performed by Ashly Burch, and the new chapter in the game’s ongoing and expanding Avengers Initiative story, Marvel’s Avengers Operation: Kate Bishop – Taking AIM also introduces a powerful new villain, the Super-Adaptoid, that will challenge players with a combination of skills and weaponry that mimic the Avengers’ own attacks.

The lead-up to Taking AIM began with enigmatic new Tachyon missions appearing on players’ in-game War Tables several weeks ago. In Taking AIM, Kate Bishop, master archer and skilled gymnast, resurfaces after her investigation of Nick Fury’s disappearance following A-Day leads to her mentor Clint Barton (aka Hawkeye) going missing as well. As she unravels the mystery behind the sudden appearance of the time-warping Tachyon Rifts, she uncovers a twisted new plan from AIM, which pushes her to work with the Avengers once again.

Taking AIM’s story can be played solo or with up to three friends to deliver the ultimate Super Hero experience. It begins shortly after the conclusion of Marvel’s Avengers’ Reassemble campaign and is just the first half of the two Hawkeyes’ Story Arc. Clint Barton’s Hawkeye will then take the stage in early 2021 to complete the double-feature and lay the groundwork for what’s next in the Avengers Initiative.

Marvel’s Avengers is currently available on PlayStation®4, Xbox One, and PC.

The PlayStation 4 and Xbox One versions of Marvel’s Avengers can currently be played via backwards compatibility on PlayStation®5 and Xbox Series X|S.

Players who own the PlayStation 4 or Xbox One version of the game will be able to upgrade to the full next-gen version at no additional cost*. Those moving their saves to next-gen consoles will transfer their player profiles and progression so they can pick up right where they left off. In addition, cross-gen play will be supported so PS5™ players will be able to play with their friends on PS4™ and Xbox Series X|S players can connect with their friends on Xbox One.

Marvel’s Avengers offers players a truly rich experience and combines the single player focused Reassemble story campaign with the ongoing Avengers Initiative’s War Zone missions, which take the Avengers around the world and beyond. Each mission in the Reassemble campaign is designed to showcase one or more hero’s unique abilities, while the Avengers Initiative missions can be played solo with your own custom AI team or with a group of up to four players** as any Hero in the player’s roster.

The narrative of Marvel’s Avengers will expand over time with the addition of new stories featuring new heroes, villains, mission types, regions, items, and more delivered to players at no additional cost once they own the core game. These stories move the entire Marvel’s Avengers narrative world forward on a multi-year arc, and all new missions are accessible to the entire roster of playable heroes.


*Free upgrade available only from PlayStation 4 to PlayStation 5, or from Xbox One to Xbox Series X|S. Upgrade from PlayStation 4 disc version requires PlayStation 5 console with disc drive. Upgrade from Xbox One disc version requires Xbox Series X console.

**Internet connection required. Your platform’s online multiplayer requirements will apply.
