Coming to PC and Consoles in 2021

PQube (London, UK) – August 5th, 2020 – Today, PQube, Dual Effect and Abstract Digital Works are excited to announce Tormented Souls for Nintendo Switch, PC on Steam, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One in 2021!

Tormented Souls sets out to draw inspiration from classic Survival Horror. From Resident Evil and Silent Hill, to Alone in the Dark – Tormented Souls is a modern take on the fixed-perspective adventure, offering an improved control scheme and a more dynamic camera, while retaining everything that made those games so beloved by fans. Check out the first teaser trailer

Something Evil Lurks at Winterlake

While investigating the disappearance of twin girls at Winterlake – something terrible happens to Caroline Walker. Waking in the dead of night, naked in a bathtub – and hooked up to some decrepit medical equipment, Caroline must fight for her life as she explores the halls of an abandoned mansion turned hospital.

Keep Your Wits About You

You’ll need much more than a steady aim and sharp reflexes to make it out alive. Search the environment for anything you can use to your advantage. Cleverly combine items to solve puzzles and use every resource available to explore the secrets of the mansion and its grounds.

Another Dimension

Nothing is quite as it seems at Winterlake. Mirrors provide a path to an alternate reality and another place in time. By crossing these shimmering gateways, Caroline can manipulate the very fabric of reality in surprising ways – turning the situation to her advantage.

You Are Not Alone in the Dark

The mansion may seem abandoned, but as Caroline investigates its secrets, dark forces and unspeakable horrors will do everything in their power to stop her getting to the truth. Be sure to be alert at all times, and use anything you can find to fight off the encroaching terrors of Winterlake.

New Global Deal Between Ubisoft and In-game Advertising Platform Anzu.io Brings Blended In-Game Ads Into Trackmania

World-leading in-game advertising platform Anzu.io announced its partnership with leading video game publisher Ubisoft. This first collaboration between the two companies is already taking place inside the hit PC racing game Trackmania, developed by Ubisoft Nadeo. This is a truly innovative game with major potential for brand collaboration.

Ads that enhance the gaming experience

Anzu, the first programmatic in-game advertising platform for PC & console, will bring dynamic, blended banner and video brand ads directly inside Trackmania. Rather than disturb the gameplay with intrusive pop-ups, Anzu’s ads, in this case, delivered programmatically, are placed naturally on in-game objects such as walls, billboards, bridges, and along the sidetracks, thereby enhancing the gameplay with more realism.

The collaboration has already been witnessed publicly as part of the recent DIGI1 by Gamevention online gaming convention in June. During a 30-minute livestream, four popular streamers and pro gamers participated in the first-ever worldwide multiplayer stream of Trackmania, complete with a blended in-game Vodafone ad experience powered by Anzu. Of the experience, the streamer Trilluxe said, “You definitely recognize it straight away… you’ll most likely read what it says on those ads. They’re not distracting at all and I find the way they’re integrated quite smart and fitting as you’ll have sponsors banners on real-life racing tracks as well.”

The Future is Now

This new deal between Ubisoft and leading in-game advertising platform Anzu is representative of a major development in the relationship between brands and games. Gaming, with an extremely diverse audience base of nearly 3 billion players from all countries and all walks of life, doesn’t appear to be slowing down anytime soon.

In light of Anzu’s recent distinction as the first and only in-game ad company to receive an ISO 27001 certificate, which gives developers and advertisers confidence that user data is handled properly, the company is pushing new industry standards. Also the first and only solution of its kind to bring advanced and trusted AdTech integrations to in-game advertising, Anzu has introduced a collaboration with fraud-detection solution Forensiq, the first-ever ad verification solution in partnership with CHEQ, and campaign effectiveness measurement together with Nielsen Connectivity. These partnerships provide confidence to advertisers and in turn, translate to more revenues for game developers.

Anzu’s co-founder and CEO, Itamar Benedy, noted, “Together with Ubisoft, we are creating a new ecosystem for game developers and brands to experience efficient and scalable in-game advertising. Trackmania is a historic franchise and we are excited to partner with Ubisoft to generate value for them through our technology, innovation and expertise. The partnership will allow more gaming giants to experience how they can enhance their games with real-world brand ads all while driving new, sustainable revenue streams,” he said. 

ABOUT UBISOFT

Ubisoft is a leading creator, publisher and distributor of interactive entertainment and services, with a rich portfolio of world-renowned brands, including Assassin’s Creed, Far Cry, For Honor, Just Dance, Watch  Dogs, Tom Clancy’s video game series including Ghost Recon, Rainbow Six and The Division.

Go to the edge of our galaxy and beyond in the one-of-a-kind space challenge that awaits you in Solar Expanse. Take on the leading role of an early 21st-century space exploration company and show your competitors how space exploration is supposed to be done!

Solar Expanse cleverly mixes strategy elements with economics and management factors and will demand that gamers familiar with the genre bring their A game, as this time they’ll be operating on a whole new, cosmic scale.

Solar Expanse is coming to Steam on soon, but you can already add the game to your Steam Wishlist (https://store.steampowered.com/app/1369700/Solar_Expanse/).

ABOUT SOLAR EXPANSE

It’s the early 21st century in an alternate future where SpaceX isn’t the only privately-owned space technology company capable of sending astronauts into orbit. The competition in this market is huge, and the days when putting people on the International Space Station was called an achievement are long gone. Now your competitors mine and drop asteroids, colonize planets ready to be inhabited while terraforming those considered not habitable, and do everything they can to gain dominance in space. You have to think big if you want to be ahead of them, so don’t limit yourself to our planetary system, but treat it as the starting point of your career. Reach the planets, moons, and asteroids of the system to mine and colonize them. Once you’re ready, visit Alpha Centauri, Proxima Centauri, TRAPPIST-1, Gliese 581, or Kepler-452 – your strategic thinking, management skills, and budget are your only limitations.

SOLAR EXPANSE MAIN FEATURES

• Lead the space exploration company – compete with other corporations on your way to profit, and remember that mercy over your competitors is not something you should have in your resumé for this job.
• Plan rocket flights – optimize the costs and schedule of the flights. Keep in mind that every object is in constant motion, so exact planning is crucial. Utilize gravity effects and slingshot your rockets further beyond.
• Explore and research – there are hundreds of thousands of objects in the asteroid belt alone. Some are made of water, while others might contain precious metals. Deploy various telescopes, arrays, and probes to know the system better and plan your next flights. Scan for the most profitable and useful materials so you can research new technologies.
• Mine and drop asteroids – send your rockets and deliver the asteroids to Earth or colonies. Gain profits to expand your corporation and start projects on a much larger scale, or drop the asteroids on planets and moons, either to terraform or just to ruin your competitors’ plans. The choice of strategy is entirely yours.
• Build and colonize – in time, you will get contracts to establish permanent bases on various objects. Build fuel stations, launch sites, space catapults, space elevators, or even entire cities!
• Terraform – your ultimate goal will be to make the moons and planets of Earth’s solar system habitable. This task will take centuries, enormous resources, new technology, and thousands of rocket flights. Move the water-rich asteroids from the asteroid belt to Mars, and don’t forget to mine Io and Titan for necessary resources.
• Conquer other solar systems – once you are done with Earth’s solar system, go beyond with your colony ships to millions of real and generated systems. Visit Alpha Centauri, Proxima Centauri, TRAPPIST-1, Gliese 581, or Kepler-452, if you can name it, you can go there!

Solar Expanse is currently under development and will come to Steam soon.

Aside from Steam, more information about the game can be found on the publisher’s Facebook and Twitter.
