Meet Kate O’Hara in New Desperados III Trailer / Free Demo Available on GOG.com

Meet Kate O’Hara in New Desperados III Trailer / Free Demo Available on GOG.com

Sydney, Australia, May 29th,  2020 – She’s got the look and she’s absolutely hitting like a hammer: Kate O’Hara grew up as a Colorado farm girl, dreaming of fame and glamour on the stage in the big city. But she had to learn to get along in the rough wild west, where most men are not natural gentlemen and very often only understand the clear message of a joyfully kick in their … well, crown jewels. This way, Kate can knock down enemies when she gets close enough – and she’s got many ways to get in melee range. Naturally, she loves to disguise herself with different outfits and of course uses her overwhelming charm to distract opponents. And if these clever tricks fail, she relies on a girl’s best friend: Her Derringer.

Arkane Studios Celebrates 20th Anniversary with Free Arx Fatalis Download and More

Since opening its doors in Lyon, France 20 years ago and eventually expanding with another office in Austin, Texas, Arkane Studios has been responsible for some of gaming’s most innovative and celebrated adventures. In that time, players have trekked the dank and treacherous dungeons of Arx Fatalis, the cold, foggy streets of Dishonored’s Dunwall, the sun-soaked vistas of Karnaca in Dishonored 2, and the unnerving space station halls of Prey’s Talos I.

Arkane’s games have been some of the most critically acclaimed titles of the last decade. Dishonored won 2012’s Game of the Year at The Game Awards, Dishonored 2 earned more than 100 ‘Best Of 2016’ awards and nominations, and Prey collected more than a hundred year-end awards and nominations.

Over the next three weeks, Bethesda will celebrate Arkane’s 20th anniversary with giveaways, videos, AMAs, looks behind the scenes, and more. Tune in to Twitch.tv/Bethesda to join in on the streams featuring Arkane developers and special guests.

Players can also celebrate with other fans by joining the new Arkane Outsiders fan community. By joining the Outsiders and signing up to receive email updates before May 31st at 10am EST, players will receive a free digital copy of Arkane Studio’s first game, Arx Fatalis, through the Bethesda.net launcher. Players will also receive a digital copy of the exclusive “Art of Arkane” digital artbook when joining.

RAZER INTRODUCES BLADE 15 STUDIO EDITION FOR CREATORS WITH NEW 8-CORE CPU AND QUADRO RTX GRAPHICS

RAZER INTRODUCES BLADE 15 STUDIO EDITION FOR CREATORS WITH NEW 8-CORE CPU AND QUADRO RTX GRAPHICS

Equipped with an 8-core Intel® processor, NVIDIA® Quadro® RTX 5000 graphics and a custom calibrated 4K OLED display, the Blade 15 Studio Edition is less laptop and more studio

Razer™ today announced the all-new Razer Blade 15 Studio Edition laptop, a mobile-workstation tailored to meet the needs of every type of creator from audio engineer to VFX artist. The new mobile studio is equipped with the latest 8-Core 10th Gen Intel® processor and an NVIDIA® Quadro® RTX™ 5000 GPU accented with supportive features such as a custom calibrated 4K OLED touch display, a UHS-III SD card reader and USB-C charging. The new Razer Blade 15 Studio Edition is the perfect combination of performance and functionality wrapped in a svelte mercury white package.

Performance Made Possible

Inside the Blade 15 Studio Edition is the new 8-Core 10th Gen Intel® Core™ i7-10875H processor capable of up to 5.1 GHz clock speeds when utilising Intel® Thermal Velocity Boost technology. The eight cores paired with the improved boost clock speeds, results in significant performance gains in CPU intensive applications.

For creators and technical professionals working with dense 3D models or complex VFX designs, the Blade 15 Studio is equipped with the NVIDIA Quadro RTX 5000 GPU. The Quadro RTX 5000 boasts 16GB of GDDR6 memory for multi-app creative workflows and 48 RT Cores for improved real-time ray tracing performance, allowing creators to interact with their work in new and unique ways.

“If I was to ask myself a few years ago, if I could pull off a high concept CG animated project like Battlesuit on a laptop remotely – I would probably think I was insane,” said Hasraf ‘HaZ’ Dulull, Director and Producer of Battlesuit. “Today, tools like Unreal Engine powered by NVIDIA GPU rendering on a Blade laptop are empowering filmmakers like myself to push the boundaries of sci-fi storytelling without restrictions, thus enabling me to realise my vision regardless of how wild my imagination is”.

Performance Made Visual

At the center of the new Blade 15 Studio is a 15.6-inch 4K OLED touch display, transporting users to other dimensions with its retina-shattering clarity and rich immersive colours. Each display covers 100% of the DCI-P3 colour space and is custom calibrated for colour accuracy and a low Delta-E for consistency when working in different environments. The display also features an ultra-low response time of 1ms for creators working in VFX or video game development. Finished with a Gorilla® glass panel for increased durability, touch users can work effortlessly on the Blade 15 Studio Edition with peace of mind.

Performance Made Versatile

Designed to be as reliable as it is powerful, the new Blade 15 Studio Edition chassis is crafted from a single block of aluminum and anodised with a mercury white finish. The result is a thin yet durable design that can stand the test of time and the exploits of adventurous users.

“I’ve been working with the previous Blade 15 Studio over the last few months and have found it not only to be a great day-to-day laptop but when you need to call on it to really push things, this machine comes alive,” said Jarred Land, CEO of RED Digital Cinema. “Now it looks like the new Blade Studio is even better with the new 8-core processor and YES! The ability to now charge over USB-C/Thunderbolt.  The new updates will surely make this my primary laptop in the future.”

The Blade 15 Studio Edition is equipped with the latest connectivity options to make every creator’s life easier, such as a UHS-III SD Card reader, Bluetooth 5.1, and USB-C with Thunderbolt 3™. In addition to data and video transfer, the USB-C ports now grant users much greater flexibility allowing for use with a low powered universal USB-C power adapter for charging in an emergency.

The all-new Razer Blade 15 Studio Edition features the latest in processing and visual technology empowering creators to create their life’s best work whether in the field or in the studio. 

Pricing and Availability

The all-new Razer Blade 15 Studio Edition will start at $4299.99 USD / 4599.99 € MSRP and is available now at Razer.com and through select retailers in the United States and Canada. It will come soon to select retailers in Europe, China, Asia Pacific and the Middle East.

Battling her own curiosity and guilt, she quickly finds that this is overshadowed by the tangible threats of demons and monsters she must now face. Inspired by the Mediterranean coast of Greece mixed with a fantasy element, Pandora paints her spectacular world with a mixture of vibrant colours, compelling characters, mythical creatures, and beautiful environments.

Players will engage in real-time combat as they battle the mythological beasts emerging from the darkness with powerful umbrella artifacts left behind by the Gods. Each Umbrella has its own unique ability, harnessing the power of each of the 12 Olympians, including Zeus himself. Platform and glide around spellbinding environments to discover new places and secret ruins.

NEW OUTRIDERS GAMEPLAY REVEALED

NEW OUTRIDERS GAMEPLAY REVEALED

Debut Outriders Broadcast Showcases New Powers, Environments and Features

SYDNEY, 29th May 2020 – SQUARE ENIX® debuted new gameplay footage from OUTRIDERS™, the highly anticipated upcoming RPG-Shooter from People Can Fly, the developers of Gears of War: Judgment and BULLETSTORM, and Square Enix External Studios, the minds behind SLEEPING DOGS® and JUST CAUSE®.

Seen through the lens of drop-in co-op, the First City gameplay reveals never-before-seen Pyromancer powers, brand-new, hyper-evolved creatures, information on the OUTRIDERS World Tier system, a look at an immersive new environment and more.

Set in an all-new, dark sci-fi world, OUTRIDERS is a true genre hybrid that combines the depth and story of an RPG and the intensity of third-person shooter combat with awe-inspiring powers. Deep character progression and itemization allow for a wide variety of creative class builds, and evolve People Can Fly’s trademark over-the-top, skill-based gameplay to create a brutal RPG-shooter experience.

“We are making the game we always wanted to play. The team at PCF are all gamers and we love shooters. Shooters are in our DNA and we have been making them for decades. At the same time, we also love RPG’s,” said Bartek Kmita, Creative Director of OUTRIDERS at People Can Fly. “We always wanted to play a deep RPG, with an epic story and the flexibility to create lots of interesting character builds, but we also wanted a skill-based, challenging and intense real-time combat system in our RPG. When the opportunity to create it ourselves came along, it was like a dream come true.”

The OUTRIDERS First City gameplay video is just one of the segments in the OUTRIDERS Broadcast, a new monthly show that will dive deep into the various features of the dark and desperate world of OUTRIDERS. Discover all-new gameplay, environments, character class deep dives, and updates from the team.
