Plus Double Rewards on RC Bandito Races, Premium Deluxe Repo Work and More

The smell of burnt rubber, singed hair and octane is thick in the air. That can mean only one thing: The Arena War Series returns with a vengeance this week, paying out triple to any adrenaline addict willing to crawl into a roll-cage and risk life and limb for glory and monetary reward.

If that all sounds a bit too life-sized and high stakes, you can always opt for something a little smaller in scale, like the RC Bandito Races that’re paying out 2X GTA$ & RP, all week long.

Or maybe you prefer getting your hands dirty, in which case you will be chuffed to learn that Simeon Yetarian is paying double for all Premium Deluxe Repo Work until June 17th.

Business Battle Prizes
Take part in Business Battles this week for a shot at receiving the Brute Tee, Bollokan Tee or Chariot Tee. Ends June 17th.

This week’s top prize is the Pegassi Torero, a Sports Classic, a collector’s item, and a throwback to economic boomtimes and lax road safety regulations all at once. Things were better then, weren’t they?

As Colt, players are trapped in a time loop on the enigmatic island of Blackreef, doomed to repeat the same day for eternity. The only chance for escape is to break the loop by assassinating eight key targets before the day resets. However, lurking in the shadows is rival assassin Julianna, equipped with her own equally powerful abilities and weapons, on a mission to protect the loop by assassinating Colt, and restarting the cycle. DEATHLOOP is launching Holiday 2020.

Deploy First Squad of Protectors 16 June with Steam Demo

ANN ARBOR, MI — 12 June 2020 — We Are The Caretakers, the sci-fi turn-based tactical RPG set in an afrofuturist world, will defend the planet’s most vulnerable creatures on Steam Early Access in Q3 2020, with a release for consoles planned to concurrently launch alongside PC’s version 1.0. Heart Shaped Games invites everyone to download a free demo available on Steam this 16 June as part of the Steam Game Festival.

Turmoil has overtaken humanity after first contact with an alien civilization. Take command as the Conductor, one who’s sworn to protect the Shadran society and their endangered rhino-like species of Raun. Under threat from poachers, Caretakers must take up arms against those who would destroy what remains of the Raun and their home, saving the animals from extinction and continuing their tradition as wardens of Shadra’s most susceptible.

We Are The Caretakers combines real-time strategy with turn-based combat. Deploy squads of high-tech conservationist protectors led by the Conductor. Inspect the map and secure towns, while protecting Shadra’s beloved Raun that roam the fields. Nurture a special baby Raun who takes a liking to the Conductor and watch as they grow into a force to save their kind. 

Recruit detained poachers, but keep an eye on the reputation of the Caretakers: the right decision is not always the popular one, and might make future missions more difficult. With more than 20 job classes, procedurally generated levels that feel hand-crafted, and a morally-complex world, We Are The Caretakers places Conductors into a complicated, exciting world full of strategic decisions and challenges.

We Are The Caretakers plays host to an original sci-fi world with an afrofuturist vision. Characters, environments, and the story blends elements of man-made and organic science fiction sporting a distinct African influence. The soundtrack combines epic orchestral sounds, African instrument samples, and modern hip-hop beats. 

Heart Shaped Games is a diverse, talented team featuring art director Anthony Jones (former cinematics artist at Activision Blizzard) and narrative designer Xalavier Nelson Jr. (IGF nominee, narrative director for Hyperspace Outlaw). The studio is headed by Scott Brodie, a games industry veteran with almost two decades of experience under his belt, including time at Microsoft Game Studios as a producer on Xbox Live Arcade.

“The vision that the team is bringing to We Are The Caretakers is a rich sci-fi world with a focus on conservation that’s like no other, and this demo will give everyone a glimpse into an unparalleled experience,” said Scott Brodie, founder, Heart Shaped Games. “We look forward to working with our audience to help craft the game based on feedback from the demo and the upcoming Early Access launch.”

The We Are The Caretakers demo will be available on Steam for a limited time, June 16-22 ahead of Early Access in Q3 2020, and consoles with version 1.0 in 2021. For more information, visit the official website, join the We Are The Caretakers Discord and follow Heart Shaped Games on Twitter, Facebook, and Twitch.

In December last year, Swedish independent game developer 10 Chambers Collective – formed in 2015 by nine industry veterans known for titles such as PAYDAY: The Heist and PAYDAY 2 – released their first game GTFO, a 4-player co-op action/horror FPS, in Early Access. It has been described as “Left 4 Dead meets Aliens”, and today it’s getting a massive update as a part of their Rundown concept, where the game is regularly updated with new expeditions (i.e. maps, scenarios, enemies, etc.) that replace the previous ones. They’re launching the new update, named “The Vessel”, together with an action-packed trailer showcasing the new environment, and teasing an all-new horrifying enemy whose sounds are apparently recorded by one of the team member’s younger family members. The trailer ends with the text “Will you make it?” – a valid question as very few players made it through the last GTFO Rundown.

GTFO is a 4-player co-op action/horror FPS game, made for gamers looking for a hardcore challenge. The game takes place in a terrifying underground facility called “the Complex”, where your team’s survival relies on your ability to communicate, coordinate, and count your bullets.

“GTFO has always been intended for ambitious gamers with a masochistic streak, which is why we have a warning on our product page to not buy it unless you’re up for a real challenge”, says Ulf Andersson, founder of 10 Chambers. “With the new Rundown, however, we have done some stabilisation to also make it a bit more accessible for players who might not call themselves hardcore. GTFO will always be difficult, but it should never be unfair. We hope this update will welcome many new players to our friendly and active community.”

Besides introducing a new environment, a stockpile of new weapons, and an all-new enemy, this update will begin to unravel some of the mystery around GTFO’s story. The community has been theorising the game’s storyline and The Vessel will provide more story-related details.

“The Complex contains clues as to what happened there, and the new Rundown will allow you to sleuth out more of these and start uncovering the mysteries of the GTFO universe”, says Simon Viklund, member of 10 Chambers. “To help with fleshing out GTFO’s story, we have brought on Adam Gascoine, who has previously worked on DOOM, DOOM Eternal, and The Last of Us.”

GTFO is currently in Early Access, but on track for Version 1.0 being ready sometime at the beginning of next year.

“The Rundowns is a perfect tool to experiment with different concepts and ideas for what will go into Version 1.0”, says Ulf Andersson. “It’s a huge help that the game is built on the Unity game engine, as it’s such a great environment to make prototypes and try out crazy ideas. I would say the tools offered by the Unity engine are fundamental for such a small development team to pull off the Rundown concept.”

GTFO already has a very active community, especially on Discord where the official GTFO server is one of the largest on the platform with over 185,000 members. This Discord server is used for people to find team members as well as discussing the many mysteries of GTFO or helping new players understand the game. With Rundown 003 – The Vessel, the game will also get Steam Trading Cards, making it possible for players to collect and trade GTFO themed cards.

This new update, named The Vessel (Rundown #003), is now available to everyone that owns GTFO Early Access.

GTFO Early Access is available on Steam for $34,99USD, but to celebrate the update it’s currently 20% off!

GTFO Early Access is available on Steam now. Interact with 10 Chambers Collective on Twitter, Discord, YouTube and Facebook, and join the Ambassador Program for access to future perks.

Founded in 2015, 10 Chambers Collective is an independent studio based in Stockholm, Sweden.

Enhanced and expanded version of Grand Theft Auto Vcoming to PS5; New standalone version of Grand Theft Auto Onlinewill be free to all PS5 owners within first three months of the title’s launch in 2021

SAN MATEO, Calif., June 11, 2020 – Innovation and creativity collide this holiday season, as Sony Interactive Entertainment (SIE) revealed new details for PlayStation®5, including the next-generation console’s design and a deep lineup of brand new games coming to the platform. In a livestream event today reaching millions of gaming fans, SIE showed the PS5™ hardware for the first time, with its bold, two-tone design marking a radical departure from previous PlayStation consoles. PS5 will launch in two options: a standard model with an Ultra HD Blu-ray disc drive, and a digital model without a disc drive, offering unprecedented choice at launch to gamers.

Today’s livestream also provided fans with a first look at the new games that will define the next generation of gaming on PlayStation 5. Across dozens of titles, most of which are launching as console exclusives or full exclusives on PS5, the world’s most talented developers showcased the potential of the hardware, which will unlock rich experiences for gamers, bringing them deeper into extraordinary game worlds than ever before.   

“With PlayStation 5, we are making a significant leap to deliver a truly new generation of transformative play experiences that will redefine expectations for what games can be,” said Jim Ryan, President and CEO of SIE. “Worlds will be richer and more beautiful, they’ll captivate your senses in ways you didn’t think possible, and you’ll be able to experience them much more seamlessly, with lightning fast loading. Today’s showcase is just a glimpse of what’s to come in the next generation, and we want to thank our community for taking this journey to PS5’s launch with us.” 

One of the biggest series of all time, Grand Theft Auto, will be coming to PS5, thanks to the close partnership between SIE and Rockstar Games. Enhanced and expanded versions of Grand Theft Auto V and Grand Theft Auto Online will launch on PS5 in the second half of 2021. With a range of technical improvements, visual upgrades and performance enhancements, GTAV & GTA Online will take full advantage of the PS5 hardware and its new features, making the game more beautiful and more responsive than ever. In addition, a new standalone version of Grand Theft Auto Online will also be made available, with access to all PS5 owners for free within the first three months of the title launching. Once the entitlement is claimed, the game is theirs to keep, and with a PlayStation Plus membership, PS5 owners will be able to play GTA Online as much as they want. Finally, starting today, all GTAV PS4 owners will get GTA$1,000,000 every month until the PS5 version of the game launches in 2021.

Additionally SIE Worldwide Studios and the industry’s top publishers and developers unveiled a lineup of PS5 titles that demonstrate a depth and breadth of unique experiences. Some of the first-party PlayStation Studios exclusives included:Marvel’s Spider-Man Miles Morales (Insomniac Games), Gran Turismo 7 (Polyphony Digital), and Horizon Forbidden West (Guerrilla Games).

Reveals from third-party publishers included blockbuster franchises such as NBA 2K21 (2K, Visual Concepts) and Resident Evil™ Village (Capcom), as well as brand new IP launching on PS5 as console exclusives, such as DEATHLOOP™ (Bethesda) and Project Athia* (Square Enix/Luminous Productions). New titles from independent developers, such as Stray (Annapurna/ Blue Twelve Studio) and Bugsnax (Young Horses), demonstrated the diversity of content coming to the platform.

SIE also announced a slate of new PS5 accessories to enhance the gaming experience, including: 

• PULSE 3D™ wireless headset – offering 3D audio support and dual noise-cancelling microphones;

• HD Camera – featuring dual 1080p lenses for gamers to broadcast themselves along with their epic gameplay moments; 
• Media Remote – a remote control with built-in microphone to navigate movies and streaming services with ease; and 
• DualSense™ Charging Station – for convenient charging of two DualSense™ Wireless Controllers.

This month marks five years since ARK’s debut and Studio Wildcard is celebrating this momentous milestone with a special anniversary in-game event, a new tameable pterosaur Tropeognathus, and release of the free fantasy themed “Crystal Isles – ARK Expansion Map”!

The Crystal Isles – ARK Expansion Map is a free downloadable update available now for PC players and will be available on console versions of ARK this Fall.

In ARK players are stranded naked, freezing and starving on a mysterious island, where they must hunt, harvest, craft items, grow crops, and build shelters to survive. Use skill and cunning to kill, tame, breed, & ride the dinosaurs and primeval creatures living in ARK. Team up with hundreds of players online or try solo survival in offline play.
