• DataTraveler Locker+ G3: Automatic USB to Cloud Backup
• DataTraveler Vault Privacy 3.0: Affordable Business-Grade Security
• DataTraveler 4000 G2: FIPS 140-2 Security and Optional Management

Taipei – July 22, 2020 – Kingston Technology, a world leader in memory products and technology solutions, today announced the addition of 128GB capacity options to three of its encrypted USB flash drives. The drives are part of a full line of encrypted solutions to suit customer needs of all levels.

Consumers and organizations have become more aware of data privacy and protection needs due to regulations such as GDPR and CCPA. Additional data security options have become a necessity as work-from-home increases. The simple inclusion of encrypted USB flash drives into a daily workflow is a simple step to ensuring data is safe. Whether it’s personal, company or client information, finding the right encrypted drive can make all the difference between peace of mind and the worry of loss of data.

DataTraveler^® Locker+ G3^® (DTLPG3) secures personal data with hardware encryption and password protection for a double layer of data security. DTLPG3 offers cloud backup as an optional feature allowing users to automatically back up data from their USB to Google Drive^™, OneDrive (Microsoft^®), Amazon Cloud Drive, Dropbox or Box. The feature gives added peace of mind as users can access data if the drive is not present.

DataTraveler Locker+ G3 is easy to setup and easy to use, with no application installation required; all the software and security needed is built in. The drive works on both Windows and Mac operating systems so users can access files from multiple devices, without installing a program on every computer used.

 Kingston’s DataTraveler Vault Privacy 3.0 (DTVP 3.0) USB flash drive provides affordable business-grade security with 256-bit AES hardware-based encryption in XTS mode. It also features a read-only access mode to avoid potential malware risks. DTVP 3.0 allows organizations to customize drives to meet internal corporate IT requirements. Co-logo, serialization numbering, number of attempted password entries, minimum password length and customized product identifiers for integration with standard end-point management software (white-listing) are all available through customization.

“Portable data security is becoming more and more important with the increase in people working from home. Kingston is glad to continue expanding our line of encrypted USB solutions to help users take control of their security needs,” said Kingston. “Within our full line of encrypted drives, we offer high levels of encryption, fast USB 3.0 performance and after 10 intrusion attempts, the drives lock down so users can rest assured their data is safe.”

Available July 27, DataTraveler 4000G2 (DT4000G2DM) is FIPS 140-2 Level 3-certified with 256-bit AES-XTS encryption. Co-logo, serialization numbering, number of attempted password entries, minimum password length and customized product identifiers for integration with standard end-point management software (white-listing) are all available through customization. IT administrators can optionally centrally manage this drive to meet compliance requirements and provide a higher level of support using SafeConsole¹. Activation is a simple process and allows IT professionals to remotely configure passwords and device policies, activate audit for compliance and more. These powerful tools simplify drive integration and operation and management, even in remote locations.

DTLPG3 is available in capacities 8GB to 128GB². While DTVP 3.0 and DT4000G2DM are available in capacities 4GB to 128GB². All are backed by a five-year warranty with free technical support. For more information visit kingston.com.

Fantasy Strike Now Free-to-Play with New Characters, Features

All Characters Playable for Free, Founder’s Pack Granted to Previous Owners

EMERYVILLE, Calif. – 22 July 2020 – Fantasy Strike, the fighting game from Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix lead designer David Sirlin, is now free-to-play on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4 and Steam for Windows PC, Mac, and Linux. Alongside this price change, an update enters the ring today that includes two new characters, additional cosmetic items and animations for the entire roster, and a new optional set of subscription features.

A first for free-to-play fighting games, Fantasy Strike now allows players to play ALL characters for free online immediately with no grind-to-unlock. This includes the two new characters, Sirus Quince and General Onimaru, who each add new mechanics to the game. Quince deploys illusions to confuse his opponents and can make these illusions “real” for a limited time by landing his super. Meanwhile, Onimaru uses deliberate, powerful sword strikes that can become unblockable in the right situations.

All Fantasy Strike players can play online in casual and ranked modes and watch the action in spectator mode. Practice mode, solo matches vs. AI opponents, and the daily challenges are also all available for free. Those looking for more can find it in the Core Pack, which provides access to local Versus mode, online matches against friends, Boss Rush mode, Survival mode, and an Arcade mode with beautifully-illustrated narrative sequences. Those looking for a lot more can buy the Collector’s Pack, featuring everything in the Core Pack plus a ton of cosmetics, an exclusive “Party Time” KO effect, and one year of the new Fantasy+ subscription.

Fantasy+ is a new optional subscription service that doubles XP gains, grants access to special Master Costumes for each character who reaches experience level 20, and introduces an extensive new Replay Theater feature. With this, players can rewatch their own matches, search for replays containing specific characters and skill levels, and view an endless stream of replays in the new Ranked TV and Friend TV channels. Players can also adjust the playback speed of replays, scrub through videos, and even frame step for deep analysis.

“We worked tirelessly to find a way to maintain the competitive integrity of Fantasy Strike that our existing players love while opening it up to an even broader audience,” said David Sirlin, game director, Fantasy Strike. “We believe this free-to-play update continues our mission of crafting a fighting game that removes the barrier to being a contender, while also providing excellent value for those who want additional features and to support our work.”

Fantasy Strike provides a friendly meeting ground for newcomers and veterans to learn and enjoy hardcore fighting games. Designed to teach and demystify, Fantasy Strike shows players its systems clearly with in-depth video tutorials and innovative frame advantage visual effects. These helpful features are married with other amenities like one-click friend challenges and spectating, built-on-the-fly tournaments, cross-platform play support between all systems, latency-combating GGPO technology, and more.

The free-to-play update featuring new characters and cosmetic items is now available on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, and Steam for Windows PC, Mac, and Linux. Previous owners across all systems automatically receive access to the Founder’s Pack, which includes everything in the Core Pack plus 60 costume color sets (over $100 value if bought separately). The Core Pack is priced at $19.99, while the Collector’s Pack is available for $99.99. A Fantasy+ subscription can be purchased in 1-month, 6-month, and 12-month increments in-game with gems (approximate value of $4.99, $24.99, and $39.99, respectively).

Destructive Creations, the team behind the critically acclaimed RTS Ancestors Legacy, has started collaborating with a talented and similarly minded team – 2 Stupid Devs. Not fooled by each other’s names, DC will be publishing 2 Stupid Devs’ first title – a tower defense game with a strong graphic novel storyline and a pinch of self-centered humor – Space Raiders in Space.

Add the game to your wishlist on Steam (https://store.steampowered.com/app/1278210/Space_Raiders_in_Space/).

ABOUT SPACE RIDERS IN SPACE

Space Raiders in Space is a tower defense roguelike game built around humanity’s first encounter with intelligent extraterrestrial life (eh, can bugs really think?). But as history proves, first encounters may start with a hug, but they can easily end with a knife in the back. Don’t trust everything you see; sometimes salt looks like sugar. 

Hope you don’t have s*** to do, because there’s an important mission ahead of you: to kill as many bugs as (in)humanly possible.

The gameplay is based around 5 tasks for the almost competent crew: Search, Build, Defend, Attack, and Cower. These are used to loot for weapons and supplies, build defenses, and fight your way through the Bugpocalypse – waves of bloodthirsty space bugs eager to have some human flesh for dinner. Waves upon waves of troublesome insects need to be squashed in the biggest space deratization event in the history of the Universe. With over a dozen defensive structures, a hefty arsenal of various weapons and the crew members’ own quirks, there are many strategies to be explored, as well as several gameplay modes, ensuring a high replay value. Sometimes there is no such thing as a good choice and one has to choose what is subjectively the lesser evil.

With Early Access available on Steam for a couple of months, the game has been expanding significantly, regularly adding new game modes, levels, characters, weapons, enemies and other goodies. Community feedback has proven to be really valuable in driving the game in the right direction and Destructive Creations’ experienced team is bound to push it even further, into the outer rings of the Milky Way.

Features of Space Raiders in Space:

• Simplicity with Depth – The orders you can give are simple; the strategies you can achieve with them are surprisingly complex.
• Challenging Maps – As you loot your way through the galaxy, the different locations you explore will present unique tactical challenges for you to conquer via clever use of weapons, fortifications, and orders.
• Unique Weapons – Penetrating Crossbows, Slashing Swords, Armour-piercing Snipers, Crushing Hammers, and many more categories of weapons, each with multiple tiers and rarities.
• Super Time Stop Powers – Pause the game mid-combat to evaluate your strategy and give orders. It will help, but sometimes there are just too many bugs.
• Official ranking of the best players.

More information about the game can be found on Facebook, Twitter, Discord, the developer’s website and the publisher’s website.

PUBG MOBILE ADDS TO ANTI-CHEAT MEASURES WITH SAFETY OBSERVATION PERIOD FOR SUSPECTED CHEATERS

Latest initiative to address in-game cheating allows for closer look at players and account limits while under observation

LOS ANGELES – July 21, 2020 – PUBG MOBILE is making it harder yet again for cheaters as the game introduces a Safety Observation Period, the latest tactic in a continuing effort to maintain a fair gaming environment for all.

With the help of artificial intelligence and machine learning, the new system in PUBG MOBILE will automatically identify players who are attempting to gain unfair advantages by violating the game’s end-user license agreement. Once any triggering behavior is detected, players will be removed from the matching queue and required to play the game under a Safety Observation Period.

During the Safety Observation Period, players will not be matched with players who are not under safety observation and will not record any earnings or stats from their matches. They will also be unable to team-up or spectate message, and only be able to access limited game modes until the observation period. If players damage the fair gaming environment while under observation, they will be banned.

“PUBG MOBILE’s official Operations Team is fully committed to continue guaranteeing an amazing game experience and treat all users equally and fairly,” said PUBG MOBILE Team. “By taking a closer look at players who don’t respect the rules of the game and play fair, we’re continuing to show our commitment to providing a fair gaming environment for all.”

PUBG MOBILE is available to download for free on the App Store and Google Play. 

ABOUT PUBG MOBILE

PUBG MOBILE is based on PLAYERUNKNOWN’S BATTLEGROUNDS, the phenomenon that took the world of interactive entertainment by storm in 2017. Up to 100 players parachute onto a remote island to battle in a winner-takes-all showdown. Players must locate and scavenge their own weapons, vehicles and supplies, and defeat every player in a visually and tactically rich battleground that forces players into a shrinking play zone.
