Disintegration Launching in 2020 for PlayStation®4, Xbox One, and PC

Fight to save the remnants of humanity in this tactical first-person shooter from V1 Interactive and Private Division

Sydney, Australia – August 21, 2019 – Private Division and V1 Interactive have revealed first details of the upcoming sci-fi shooter, Disintegration, which included a riveting single-player campaign, multiplayer featuring three distinct game modes, and a first glimpse at the game world. Disintegration will launch digitally for $89.95 on PC, PlayStation^®4, PlayStation^®4 Pro and across the Xbox One family of devices, including Xbox One X. The game is developed by V1 Interactive, an independent studio of about 30 industry veterans and new talent who have worked on titles such as Halo, Destiny, SOCOM US Navy Seals, and more. The team is being led by Marcus Lehto, co-creator of Halo and former creative director of Bungie.   

In Disintegration, players will journey to the near future, when humankind is on the brink of extinction and turns to technology in their hope of survival. Through a process known as Integration, the human brain is removed and surgically encased into a robotic armature. A domineering enemy superpower known as the Rayonne emerges, driven mad by their newfound supremacy, and begin capturing what remains of humanity forcing them into robotic Integration.

“Disintegration is not your standard first-person shooter and it will challenge how you approach the battlespace,” said Marcus Lehto, President and Game Director at V1 Interactive. “You will explore a world forever changed by an ongoing global conflict. The only way to save life as we know it is by making strategic decisions in every firefight, both as an armed Gravcycle pilot and as the commander of your crew.

“The game takes place in this beautiful world and has a story wrought with hardship and triumph. Both of these aspects could be the focal point of a single game, but V1 takes it one step further,” said Kari Toyama, Senior Producer at Private Division. “Not only does Disintegration bring an immersive game world and gripping narrative, the game delivers the ability to sit both within and above combat in completely different way than anything else out there right now.”

Disintegration will feature a full single-player campaign where the player takes on the role of Romer Shoal, an expert in piloting a Gravcycle, a hovering quad-engine vehicle originally used for search and rescue missions that has been transformed into an armoured chassis bristling with powerful weapons. Romer commands a small resistance force fighting to save what remains of humanity.

The game will also feature three different multiplayer game modes at launch, each with a variety of maps. These frantic team-based battles require smart coordination, utilizing ground units with individual abilities while simultaneously maximizing the destructive weapons on the Gravcycle. Players will choose from several Crews, each featuring a unique loadout and role in combat.

Fans excited to get their hands on Disintegration will be able to do so on the show floor at PAX West in Seattle, WA on August 30, 2019 through September 2, 2019.

Disintegration will be available in calendar year 2020, during Take-Two’s fiscal year 2021 (April 1, 2020 to March 31, 2021) digitally for PlayStation^®4, PlayStation®4 Pro and across the Xbox One family of devices, including Xbox One X, and PC via Steam for $89.95. Disintegration has not yet received an Australian Classification.

MechWarrior 5: Mercenaries Preorders Available Now on the Epic Games Store

Standard Edition and Deluxe Edition Preorders Up for Grabs Now

VANCOUVER – August 20, 2019 – Developer Piranha Games today announced that preorders for the upcoming MechWarrior 5: Mercenaries, the classic series’ first single player campaign-focused entry in more than 17 years, are now available via the Epic Games store for $49.99 for the Standard Edition and $59.99 for the Deluxe Edition (https://www.epicgames.com/store/en-US/product/mechwarrior-5/home.) The title is set to launch on December 10^th on PC.

The MechWarrior 5: Mercenaries Standard Edition includes the full game download and PDF game manual while the Deluxe Edition adds a digital game manual, digital technical BattleTech manual, the game’s digital soundtrack and a digital 4k desktop pack. The digital game manual is a comprehensive breakdown of mechanics and features in MechWarrior 5: Mercenaries while the digital technical manual contains awesome imagery and information about the equipment and ‘Mechs found in the game.

MechWarrior 5: Mercenaries is modeled after the gameplay style from MechWarrior 2: Mercenaries, granting players the freedom to run their campaigns how they choose. In MechWarrior 5: Mercenaries, pilots will build, manage, and guide their own mercenary unit through a multi-year campaign during the sprawling Third and Fourth Succession Wars enjoying by far the greatest amount of player freedom and choice compared to past titles.

Whether braving missions alone, alongside AI-controlled pilots, or with the help of up to three friends via co-op play, pilots will face complicated situations with no perfect solution as they choose which contracts to accept, where in the Inner Sphere to direct their attention, and how to balance repairs or upgrades with maintaining their unit’s precious resources.

Lesquin, France, August 20, 2019 – More has been unveiled today about Overpass™, the new off-road simulation developed by Zordix Racing and published by Bigben. A new video highlights the game’s unique and innovative concept, which fans of motorsports and extreme driving will love.

At the controls of 25 buggies and quads from big-name manufacturers (Arctic Cat, Yamaha, Polaris and Suzuki), players will need to negotiate scree slopes, steep inclines and various obstacles on extreme off-road and technically challenging tracks.

With 40 routes in varied terrain and environments, a new challenge can be found in each race. Whether it involves hillclimbing or rock-crawling, the aim is to complete the race in the best time possible.

The realistic and technical level design, combined with the advanced physics engine, makes for an even greater challenge: mud, sand, rocks, natural and man-made obstacles… every type of terrain offers a unique test. Players must choose the vehicle best suited to the selected track, adapt their driving style and understand that speed is not always the answer. From expert control of acceleration, wise use of the transmission and differentials, and knowing when to shift from two- to four-wheel drive, there are many options to master on the road to off-road victory.

There are multiple game modes in Overpass™ : Career, Quick Race, Local Multiplayer (split screen and hotseat) and Online Multiplayer with up to eight players.

Overpass™ is coming to PlayStation®4, Xbox One, PC and Nintendo Switch™ in February 2020.
