Command the Most Devastating Vehicle Ever in Act III of World of Tanks’ Anniversary Celebrations

Available for one week only, a special PvP game mode will see players unleash the full force of the widely requested Sturmtiger

June 15, 2020 — The anniversary activities are ramping up as World of Tanks’ 10th birthday nears in August. Act III will introduce a fun limited-time game mode, focused on the rather special and widely requested Sturmpanzer VI Sturmtiger. Additionally, players can take on a new set of missions, which will bring them one step closer to unlocking the ultimate Anniversary reward – a unique 3D style for the T30.

As late as 2015, developers were considering adding the Sturmtiger to the game, but due to its unique characteristics and features, there wasn’t a truly natural fit for it in the tech tree. Players continued to request it, but unlike in real life, it was never realised. Several years later, there still might not be a place for this German SPG in the tech tree, but that doesn’t mean it can’t be put in the game.

“The Sturmtiger is a wonderful piece of military vehicle history, but the real-life vehicle itself is rather unbalanced, which made it very hard to naturally fit in our game all those years ago,” stated Dmitriy Trofimov, Game Designer for World of Tanks.

“Its armour would be comparable to Tier VII or VIII, but its gun caliber… well, it’s something special. At 38cm, it’s 14cm more than anything else in our game.”

For the first time ever, players will be able to get their hands on this urban legend, and the Sturmpanzer VI Sturmtiger is unlike anything they’ll have ever seen before. This Tier X German artillery bucks some of the trends its real-life counterpart is known for: its incredible agility will leave tankers in disbelief. However, the Sturmtiger retains the devastating firepower that’s typical for top-tier vehicles and ramps it up to eleven.

These colossal beasts will battle it out in teams of 10 on 5 different maps: Ensk, Widepark, Tundra, Mines and Airfield. The Crouching Sturmtiger game mode will be available for one week only, running from 17th June through June 24th.

Face the Trials of a War-Ravaged World to Save your Family in No Place For Bravery, Coming 2021 to Nintendo Switch, PC

Ysbryd Games to Publish Glitch Factory’s Brutal ARPG

BRASÍLIA, BRAZIL – 13 JUNE 2020 – No Place For Bravery, a top-down action-RPG that explores the lengths a parent would go to find their child in a war torn world, will release in Q1 2021 on Nintendo Switch and Steam for Windows PC with the help of publisher Ysbryd Games.

Developer Glitch Factory will leverage Ysbryd Games’ years of experience on beloved narrative-driven experiences like cyberpunk bartending sim VA-11 HALL-A and cosmic horror roguelike WORLD OF HORROR to help bring the gripping story and pixel art landscapes of No Place for Bravery to immersive life.

An old soldier dedicated to the advancement of his people, Thorn reassesses his priorities and prepares to lay down his sword, until discovering his long-lost daughter Leaf still lives.In a bid to expunge the nightmares which plague him, Thorn sets out with his disabled foster son Phid to find Leaf, and endures a painful quest that forces him to confront the decisions made in his ambitious past.

No Place For Bravery places equal emphasis on narrative and action, with fast-paced movement paired with swift strikes and tactical parries during combat encounters. Progression is not about leveling up and increasing stat numbers, but earning upgrades discovered from significant encounters and uncovering the secrets laying in wait within the beautiful world of Dewr.

No Place For Bravery’s art conveys the goals of its gameplay by featuring an incredibly detailed pixel world, a stirring soundtrack and hand-painted textures. Characters feature fluid animation, all created in a style drawing inspiration from medieval, high fantasy and apocalyptic fiction.

Originally conceived of as a roguelike in 2016, Glitch Factory overhauled No Place For Bravery in the years since to deliver an experience that more closely follows their vision and inspirations, with a narrative-driven campaign influenced by the difficult experiences of its creators. 

“Multiple members of the team had to deal with toxic relationships and absent parents,” said Matheus Queiroz, developer at Glitch Factory. “Through the trials and tribulations of our lives, including the long road of development, we have persevered, and we hope our shared experiences will be heartfelt by the PC and Nintendo Switch communities in 2021.”

No Place For Bravery releases in Q1 2021 for $19.99 for Nintendo Switch and Steam for Windows PC, with support for English and Brazilian Portuguese language text at launch and more languages to follow.

Build a Drug Empire in tinyBuild’s Cartel Tycoon Q4 2020, Free Demo Out Now

tinyBuild Will Publish Drug Empire Simulator Based on ‘80s Narco Trade

ST. PETERSBURG, Russia — 13 June 2020 — tinyBuild in collaboration with the RTS vets at Moon Moose will smuggle Cartel Tycoon, the drug empire business simulator, onto PC in Q4 2020. A free demo hits the streets on Steam for PC today.

Become a drug tycoon in a story-driven strategy game inspired by the ‘80s narco trade. As a succession of fictional drug lords, run all aspects of the empire. Smuggle product over the border, launder dirty money, and earn the loyalty of the common people while fending off rival cartels and evading the eye of the law.

Cartel Tycoon simulates every facet of the drug baron experience. Manage huge logistical systems in pursuit of profit. Establish farms, maintain housing, and build production lines and workshops. Optimize the trade of cannabis and cocaine, then research new drugs and ways to hide and transport them.

The thing about war? It’s bad for business. As profits climb, a vicious cycle of violence begins, ultimately spelling the kingpin’s doom. But failure is part of the experience—take over the empire as one of your lieutenants to continue the succession, pick up the pieces, and start rebuilding. Survive as long as possible, facing roguelike challenges and conditions with each new leader.

“Our story about drug cartels focuses on the consequences of such an endeavor,” said game designer Margarita Shapovalova. “Cartel Tycoon invites players to test themselves against incredible depth and intense, persistent trials, but ultimately, even the hardest dealers succumb to the perils of the trade.”

Cartel Tycoon will be available in Q4 2020 on Steam for PC in English, Russian, Spanish, German, French, Portuguese, and Italian. The free demo supports all of these localizations.

Prepare to build an empire of blood and fire with Moon Moose and tinyBuild on the official Cartel Tycoon website. Follow tinyBuild on Twitter, Facebook, and Discord.

About Moon Moose

Moon Moose is a small studio of five people, based in Saint Petersburg, Russia. The core team, who has previously worked at Octobox Games decided to part ways and take a swing at making their own games. Cartel Tycoon is their first major project as a team.

About tinyBuild

With additional development offices in Amsterdam, Netherlands, and Riga, Latvia, tinyBuild is rapidly building a portfolio of fun, high-quality games across multiple platforms.

Lead Humanity’s Salvation from a Monster-Spawning Mist in Tactical Defense RPG The Last Spell’s Debut Demo

New Trailer Displays Agile Combat, Overwhelmingly Powerful Enemy Swarms

PARIS (June 15, 2020) – Publisher The Arcade Crew and developer CCCP today announced their partnership in support of The Last Spell, a PC-bound, arcade-paced fight to save humanity through tactical RPG battles paired with roguelite elements. In celebration of the announcement, The Last Spell’s first-ever demo will welcome strategists to the battlefield as part of the Steam Game Festival starting tomorrow until June 22: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1105670/The_Last_Spell/

The Last Spell challenges players to master deeply rewarding combat as they lead a squad of hardened heroes defending the world’s remaining Haven. Faced with hordes of relentless monsters charging from a mysterious, toxic mist enveloping the world, commanders must strategically leverage each warrior to survive brutal, all-out onslaughts against their sanctuary while improving defenses and upgrading the buildings behind them. Witness the daunting scale of the battles ahead in The Last Spell’s new trailer.

Parties are unrestrained by classes, allowing players extensive control as they build unstoppable fighters through versatile weapons, perks, and skills. The Last Spell’s action remains snappy despite its depth in party management and optimization; warriors can focus on slaying their unending foes instead of pouring over spreadsheets or volumes of narration.

Surviving The Last Spell’s flood of varied enemies is difficult, but the challenge never feels unfair or insurmountable, and a strong sense of progression keeps defeat from feeling like failure. Should a party succumb to the mist’s hellish creatures, jumping into a new round takes seconds, and players return to the frontlines with a better understanding of how to avoid past blunders. Each session brings fresh trials through procedurally generated enemy waves along with different weapons and gear loadouts, making The Last Spell feel like a true test of a strategist’s ability to adapt and overcome anything.

To keep an eye on The Last Spell’s swarming beasts, set a perimeter up around the game’s official Haven (http://lastspell.com/), get the latest intel through CCCP’s discord (https://discord.gg/cccp), and get a preemptive strike on @TheArcadeCrew, @deadingames and @LeCCCP’s follow buttons on Twitter.
