San Diego, CA – August 22, 2019 – Leading gaming audio and accessory brand Turtle Beach (Nasdaq: HEAR) today announced partnerships with Melvin Ingram and Isaac Rochell of the Los Angeles Chargers.

Whether they’re training and competing at the highest level against the best football players or gamers in the nation, Ingram and Rochell deserve the best equipment and Turtle Beach delivers on all their gaming needs.

Wargaming reveals first three nations to receive submarines in World of Warships

Wargaming reveals first three nations to receive submarines in World of Warships

Wargaming pulls the curtain on the long-awaited ship class for its popular naval combat game with a brand new cinematic trailer and gameplay video

22nd August 2019 – After recently announcing the upcoming arrival of submarines as playable vessels in World of Warships, publisher and developer Wargaming has unveiled more details on their unique features as well as their plans for the launch of the long-awaited ship class during gamescom 2019. 

A brand-new cinematic trailer and a gameplay video showing the submarines combat abilities are available on the official channel.

Three nations will be the first to receive these stealthy combat machines, including:

  • The United States: the Cachalot (Tier VI), Salmon (Tier VIII) and Balao (Tier X).
  • Germany: the U-69 (Tier VI), U-190 (Tier VIII) and U-2501 (Tier X).
  • USSR:the S-1(Tier VI), L-20 (Tier VIII) and K1  (Tier X).

In the next couple of weeks, players will be able to get a first glimpse of submarines during the upcoming Super Test phase. Prospective commanders can already look forward to this fall’s PvP event, which will let them try out submarines from the first three nations for a limited time to evaluate the changes brought by the introduction of the new ship-class before its actual release. Wargaming is looking to expand the selection of submarines to other nations in the future, with the Japanese fleet to follow, as well as the future introduction of additional researchable and premium ships. 

The uniqueness of submarines resides in their ability to appear in places where they are least expected, dislodging enemy ships from choke points via surgical torpedo volleys before disappearing again. Submarines will have the best stealth capabilities in the game, as they will be able to dive below the ocean surface and evade visual detection as long as their supply of oxygen allows it.

This brand-new ability will let players launch surprise attacks on the enemy team and become invulnerable to most types of damage. Submarines will however be relatively slow and have the least amount of hit points, requiring from prospective commanders thoughtful use of their unique mechanics, as well as good positioning and situational awareness to turn the tides of battle. 

When submerged, submarines will lose vision of enemies in the battle. They will need to plot their course and detect other ships with the help of another new mechanic, the hydrophone. This feature will allow them to determine the direction to the nearest enemy ships and visualise their surroundings when diving, actively helping them with their spatial awareness. 

Players will also gain the ability to adjust their aim after firing and to alter their torpedoes’ course by pinging certain parts of an enemy ship using their sonar. This new feature will however be a double-edged blade, as it will show the submarine’s position on the mini map for a short period of time. 


The introduction of submarines will also bring new weapons and mechanics specifically designed to counter them. Destroyers will be particularly efficient at hunting down submarines and special zones will appear on the surface once they get close to their prey. Once they’ve acquired a target, destroyers will be able to use brand-new weapons designed to sink submarines hiding at high depth: the anti-submarine mortars and depth charges, which will be activated automatically when they sail above their opponents.

THE DARK PICTURES ANTHOLOGY: MAN OF MEDAN TEASES THE TERRORS TO COME IN NEWEST TRAILER

THE DARK PICTURES ANTHOLOGY: MAN OF MEDAN TEASES THE TERRORS TO COME IN NEWEST TRAILER

BANDAI NAMCO Entertainment America Inc. and Supermassive Games released a new teaser trailer for The Dark Pictures Anthology: Man of Medan, which illuminates both the title’s driving mysteries and its place within the larger anthological series.

Developed by Supermassive Games, the critically-acclaimed studio behind the cult-classic thriller Until Dawn, The Dark Pictures Anthology is a series of standalone cinematic horror games anchored by three common threads: an unprecedented amount of branching gameplay—even for a Supermassive title—that yields near-limitless replayability; 5 controllable characters (per game) who can all live and die based on the players’ choices; and The Curator, an omnipresent narrator-like figure who seems to know just a little bit too much about Supermassive’s horrifying new universe.

Man of Medan will serve as the maiden voyage for the anthology, offering players a bottomless ocean of chilling experiences to be braved either with a friend or—for the particularly daring—alone. The title is slated to set sail on August 30, 2019 for the PlayStation®4 computer entertainment system, Xbox One and Steam® for PC.
