Ambitious New Team RTS A Year Of Rain Set to Launch November 6 on Steam

Bombastic new gameplay trailer showcases the unique features and factions of Daedalic Entertainment’s upcoming strategy game

HAMBURG, Germany – Oct. 4, 2019 – Publisher and developer Daedalic Entertainment has today announced that the ambitious new team RTS A Year Of Rain will launch into Steam Early Access worldwide on Wednesday, Nov. 6, 2019.

The upcoming release was confirmed in a brand-new gameplay trailer, which teases the game’s three unique factions and the new franchise’s epic fantasy action

Daedalic has also revealed the first story details about the harsh and brutal world in which A Year Of Rain is set. Desolate environments offer limited resources, and any prize you do find, you’ll have to fight for. The battle for survival and the drums of war are all its people know. Two friends, a paladin of the morning sun and the son of a powerful noble house, set out to break the cycle and bring peace to these war-torn lands. A Year Of Rain tells their story and the sacrifices they must make for a better future against those who do not share their vision of civilization and those chained to unlife, doomed to fight forever.

Combining classic real-time strategy elements with a strong focus on teamplay and hero units, A Year Of Rain’s co-op campaigns and online and offline modes are designed with a team of two players in mind. The classic 2v2 “Skirmish” mode has been developed from the very beginning to encourage competition across the entire spectrum of skill levels. Meanwhile, the “Against All Odds” mode is an innovation in the genre, where two lone heroes face two entire armies in an escalating fight for survival.

Additionally, there’s still time to join A Year Of Rain’s ongoing closed beta. To register for a key to start playing today, simply visit https://beta.ayearofrain.com/.

On the way to earning her, players will receive plenty of other rewards and Halloween containers to help them in-game.

Players with Admiralty backing will receive extra rewards and a unique event commander. Featured as a German Battleship Commander, Henry J. Hide is the perfect partner to the Jackal! Clever references aside, Hide brings new and unique skills to further optimize the Jackal, making them the perfect dynamic duo. There are 45 levels in the Halloween campaign and two weeks to complete it. Jackal, Hide, and the other rewards are permanent, so go have fun and get yourself these unique items.

However, there’s more to Halloween than events and steampunk ships…

Starting October 26^th, World of Warships: Legends will allow players to take part in a special event. After selecting one of three event warships and their commander partners, players can take part in a cooperative operation where they must defend the Transylvania, a ship set to save Halloween! Things will quickly go downhill, as players will be fighting against a swarm of monstrous zombie ships! There are special rewards for participating in the mission based on how many objectives players complete. Earn more Halloween containers, premium account time, and coveted universal commendations.

There will be more Halloween themed commanders and ships available in the in-game store. Some of them will only be available during the Halloween season. Event containers will have more items too, holding anything from various boosters to universal commendations for your commanders, these containers also give players a chance to receive permanent Halloween camouflage for the Wakatake or the St. Louis.

World of Warships: Legends is building steam and making headway, with more to come in the future!

THE GHOSTS FACE THEIR EX-BROTHERS-IN-ARMS IN TOM CLANCY’S GHOST RECON^® BREAKPOINT, NOW AVAILABLE

Ubisoft Introduces “What Makes A Ghost”, A New Live Action Trailer Showing The Life Of an Elite Special Operations Unit Stranded Behind Enemy Lines

Sydney, Australia — October 4, 2019 — Today, Ubisoft announced that Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon^® Breakpoint is now available on the Xbox One family of devices including the Xbox One X, Windows PC, PlayStation^®4 computer entertainment system, and UPLAY+, Ubisoft’s subscription service.*  To celebrate the launch of the game, Ubisoft debuts “What Makes a Ghost”, a new live action trailer taking viewers right to the heart of the action. With a strong cinematographic feeling encapsulating organic and rough emotions, the immersive short movie shows how the Ghosts went from being the hunters to being the hunted.

Developed by Ubisoft Paris,** Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Breakpoint is a military shooter set in a diverse and hostile open world entirely playable solo or in up to four-player co-op. Players will discover Auroa, a mysterious island where the most technically advanced facilities meet wild and untamed nature. Home to tech giant and drone creators, Skell Technology, Auroa has fallen into the wrong hands and all contact has been lost. The Wolves, a lethal ex-US military unit of former Ghosts gone rogue, have taken over the island. Led by Nomad’s ex-brother-in-arms, Lt. Colonel Cole D. Walker, portrayed by Jon Bernthal, the Wolves have reprogrammed Skell’s drones into killing machines and are ready to use them, no matter the casualties.

Nomad and the Ghosts are sent on a recon mission, but their helicopters are shot down. Injured, without support and hunted down, players will live an intense military experience as they fight to survive, take down the Wolves and regain control of Auroa.

Steep slopes, accumulating injuries and fatigue are new challenges for players to tackle as they test their survival skills in the varied terrains of Auroa. Players will enjoy total freedom to accomplish their missions and have plenty of tactical options and tools at their disposal, including a set of new military features. They will be able to carry enemies and teammates’ bodies, blend into their environment with prone camo and set up camp with teammates in the bivouac to manage equipment, change classes and fine-tune their strategies.

Additionally, Ghost War, the game’s PvP mode, is seamlessly integrated within the Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Breakpoint experience. With the new shared progression system, each player will progress in PvE and PvP with the same character and keep their unlocked classes, skills, customization items and weapons across both modes. Specific tuning will be implemented for PvP to ensure a fair and skill-based experience for all players.

The launch of Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Breakpoint is just the beginning, as there is a robust post-launch content support plan with regular updates. Episode one will bring Project Titan, the first raid to come to Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Breakpoint, along with new Faction missions, PvP updates and the first new class, engineer. It will also showcase the first live event, featuring the Terminator. Episodes two and three will offer two new Adventures, two new classes, several PvP updates, new end-game content and various live events. Each faction in Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Breakpoint will evolve through new narrative missions regularly added to the game. Players will also have access to 14 daily missions that will bring fresh tactical challenges in the open world.

Year One Pass owners will have access to all Year One Adventures and their rewards, including one-week early access to the three new classes and instant unlock to the Siren’s Call mission and the Special Operations Forces Pack. Additionally, Episode one, Operation Greenstone, will be available for players starting today.

SEGA and World of Tanks Blitz Bring a Roman God to the Battlefield

The fiery Vulcan from Valkyria Chronicles 4 is ready for battle

October 4, 2019 — Two giants of the gaming industry, Wargaming and SEGA, are back at it again as a new Valkyria Chronicles vehicle is ready to storm the battlefield in World of Tanks Blitz. A combination of two unique universes and a match made in tank heaven, Vulcan will bolster the Chronicles line up that already includes four other hero tanks plucked from SEGA’s critically acclaimed RPG series.

“Our community left us so much great feedback on the Valkyria Chronicles tanks that we knew we wanted to bring even more to the game,” states Andrey Ryabovol, Product Director, World of Tanks Blitz.

“Players kept asking whether we were going to continue our collaboration and we think we’ve brought it back with a bang! Based off an original design by the Valkyria Chronicles team, Vulcan is completely unique and our team created the vehicle from the ground up without using any existing tank model.”

Named after the Roman god of all things fiery (forging, metalworking and volcanoes), Vulcan serves under the 502^nd Imperial Heavy Tank Battalion (also known as Ausbruch) in Valkyria Chronicles 4. In World of Tanks Blitz, Vulcan is joining the ranks of the heavies in the game’s exclusive Hybrid Nation, which features the greatest fantastical vehicles from artistic minds, Warhammer 40K and more.

In a nutshell, Vulcan combines solid armour, a powerful gun and good manoeuvrability, which will allow players to support the offensive, break through enemy lines and reduce those unlucky tanks caught in its sights to mere scrap metal.

To celebrate the new addition, all the Valkyria Chronicles compatriots will be available in World of Tanks Blitz from October 4 19.00 AEDT until October 18 19.00 AEDT.

BECOME YOUR OWN MARVEL SUPER HERO AND CONQUER THE BATTLEWORLD WITH KABAM AND MARVEL ENTERTAINMENT’S ALL-NEW MARVEL REALM OF CHAMPIONS

New Real-Time Action Role-Playing Super Hero Game revealed at New York Comic-Con. More to be Shown at Marvel Games Panel on Oct. 4 at 3 p.m. ET

Align with your Marvel House by visiting Booth #556

NEW YORK – OCT. 3, 2019 – Kabam, creators of the award-winning mobile fighting game MARVEL Contest of Champions, is collaborating with Marvel Entertainment on their second game: MARVEL Realm of Champions. Developed as a real-time mobile RPG for longtime Marvel fans and enthusiastic mobile gamers, players will align with Marvel-inspired factions known as ‘Houses’, and team up with friends for real-time action arena combat against enemies and other players as part of an epic war of global proportions in the Battleworld. New York Comic-Con attendees can pledge loyalty to their favorite House and learn more by visiting the booth (#556) from Oct. 3-6.

“Working with Marvel on Contest of Champions is a dream for Kabam, and we could not be more proud of the experiences we built together,” said Gabriel Frizzera, Art / Creative Director of MARVEL Contest of Champions and MARVEL Realm of Champions. “While MARVEL Contest of Champions continues to grow with years of content down the pipeline, MARVEL Realm of Champions will take players from the Battlerealm’s one-on-one duels to the Battleworld’s global skirmishes for complete territorial control in the name of their House.”

MARVEL Realm of Champions is a bold new imagining of the Marvel Universe that transports players to the Battleworld, a forbidden planet behind the Space-Time Barrier, where its uneasy peace is disrupted by the death of Maestro, the God-King. With alliances between the Houses, including the House of Iron (Iron Man), Spider-Guild (Spider-Man), Patriot Garrison (Captain America), Pyramid X (X-Men), and more, now shattered, it is pure war across the land for complete global domination. As a Champion aligned with one of the Houses, players will work together, or fight each other to gather resources for their faction across the Battleworld.

After outfitting their Champion with Super Hero-inspired gear, players will ally with their friends to explore the Marvel-inspired landscapes such as high-tech cities built on Stark Technologies, fantasy-inspired Asgardian battlefields and more. On the map, players can battle it out in localized battle arenas across a variety of Player vs. Environment (PvE) and Player vs. Player (PvP) modes, with each battle contributing to the larger conflict between Houses. By strategically using character class abilities against enemies for better teamwork and maximum effect, players can live out their fantasy of becoming their own Marvel Super Hero, forge diplomatic alliances, and lead their House to victory on the Battleworld in MARVEL Realm of Champions.

“With MARVEL Contest of Champions celebrating its fifth huge year, it’s thrilling to see Kabam expand their ongoing story and invite players to become their own Marvel Super Hero to vie for the fate of Battleworld,” said Bill Rosemann, Marvel Games VP of Creative. “From the gleaming skyscrapers of the House of Iron to the webbed alleyways of the Spider-Guild, both dedicated players and casual fans alike have an entire planet waiting for them to explore and conquer. Whose House will you choose?”

New York Comic-Con attendees can learn more about MARVEL Realm of Champions at the Marvel Games panel on Oct. 4 at noon PT / 3 p.m. ET.

“With this week’s Atlas Edge and Elite Atlas Aero launches, we’re continuing our leadership in gaming audio with two PC products that deliver a competitive advantage and a better gaming experience through high-quality audio,” said Juergen Stark, CEO, Turtle Beach. “For example, in our PC-optimized version of Superhuman Hearing, we worked with the GRAMMY® award-winning team at Waves Audio to give our unique sound setting a few expanded options, so now PC gamers can select our default setting, or choose options that  focus specifically on enemy footsteps or weapon reloads, both key indicators for when an enemy player could be close.”

Turtle Beach’s Atlas Edge PC Audio Enhancer gives your existing wired headset an instant audio advantage on PC. With the Edge connected to your system through an available USB port, you’ll gain access Turtle Beach’s Control Studio – an all-new desktop software suite with a multitude of features to customize your audio, including immersive Waves Nx 3D audio which transforms sound from any PC game into a panoramic 3D sound experience. Also included are Waves Maxx sound technology, Mic Monitoring so you can hear your own voice in the headset to avoid shouting, and an updated PC-optimized version of Turtle Beach’s exclusive Superhuman Hearing®, which provides a competitive advantage by allowing you to put specific focus on soft sounds like enemy footsteps or weapon reloads, so you hear them before they see you. Additionally, the Atlas Edge’s standard 3.5mm female jack connects with any passive wired gaming headset, and with nearly 70 inches of cable length, works great with any PC gaming setup.
