LITTLE NIGHTMARES® II CREEPS ONTO PLAYSTATION®4, XBOX ONE, NINTENDO SWITCH™ AND PC (DIGITAL)

SANTA CLARA, Calif., – (August 19th, 2019) – Leading interactive entertainment media publisher and developer BANDAI NAMCO Entertainment America Inc., today invites players to return to the disturbing and suspense-filled world of Little Nightmares in the next installment in the much-acclaimed franchise with, Little Nightmares® II.

Produced in partnership with Tarsier Studios, Little Nightmares II follows the story of Mono, a young boy trapped in a world distorted by the humming transmission of a distant Signal Tower. With Six, the girl in a yellow raincoat, together they set out to discover the grim secrets of the world whilst fleeing from the monstrous residents out to capture them.

In Little Nightmares II, players will control Mono, with Six – the protagonist from the first game – acting as their computer-controlled companion. The relationship between the two children will play a huge role within the game’s story and unveil new gameplay mechanics as the children must work together to traverse through the world.

At certain points in the game, Mono will also be able to wield a range of items picked up from the environment – a new mechanic added to Little Nightmares II that adds an extra layer of challenge to the game’s puzzles and encounters with enemies. There will be times when stealth remains the best option, sneaking past towering enemies, and times when players must think quickly to save themselves, as well as their companion Six.

In addition to new gameplay mechanics, players will also venture outside of The Maw (the setting of the first Little Nightmares game), exploring new environments including a dark wilderness and facing new enemies, such as the sadistic Teacher.

Little Nightmares II will launch in the Americas for the PlayStation®4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and PCs (Digital) in 2020. The Little Nightmares franchise includes Little Nightmares, Little Nightmares II and the mobile game, Very Little Nightmares, available now for iOS.

ROCKFISH Games announced its new open world space shooter EVERSPACE™ 2 for PC and consoles at gamescom: Opening Night Live. A Kickstarter campaign for additional funding will start on September 09, 2019.

Hamburg, Germany – August 19, 2019 – After ROCKFISH Games landed a surprise hit on PC and consoles with its studio debut EVERSPACE™, the independent developer from Hamburg has announced the official successor EVERSPACE™ 2at gamescom: Opening Night Live. In contrast to the roguelike concept of its predecessor, EVERSPACE™ 2is an open world space shooter with classic RPG elements and persistent player progression, as well as many more player ships and significantly enhanced storytelling. EVERSPACE™ 2has a planned Steam Early Access release in late 2020 with the full version arriving on PC, PlayStation® 4 and Xbox One at the end of 2021. 

The first trailer, which celebrated its premiere at gamescom: Opening Night Live.

Space game enthusiasts attending gamescom can get a first taste of the quality, gameplay and open-world feeling at the ROCKFISH stand inthe Indie Arena Booth (Hall 10.2), where a polished prototype will be playable.

“With its innovative concept of rapid space battles with rogue-like elements and exciting storytelling,EVERSPACE™was able to excite over a million PC and console players, but many of our fans and space game enthusiasts were still longing for an open world space shooter with classic RPG elements in the EVERSPACE™universe,” says Michael Schade, CEO and co-founder of ROCKFISH Games. “With EVERSPACE™ 2, we are making a big leap towards an open world space shooter, but will still remain true to our DNA and offer exactly what our fans love: a beautiful fantastic sci-fi world paired with uncompromising space action that gets down to business right away”.

EVERSPACE™ 2will clearly surpass outperform its predecessor in terms of both audiovisual quality and scope, which is reflected in the significantly higher development budget. ROCKFISH Games plans to launch a Kickstarter campaign on September 9, 2019 with a funding goal of €450,000 forEVERSPACE™ 2. As with the successful campaign of its predecessor in 2015, the EVERSPACE™community will thus be involved in the development process as early as possible. Moreover, the financial independence of the studio will be further secured in order to ensure full creative control at all times during production and, if successful, to even increase the scope of the game by activating stretch goals.

After the world premiere at gamescom, ROCKFISH Games will present EVERSPACE™ 2at Pax West in Seattle from August 29 to September 2 and at TwitchCon in San Diego from September 27 to 29.

LIONBITE GAMES’ RAIN OF REFLECTIONS LAUNCHES SEPTEMBER 20 ON STEAM

Explore a future dystopian world of complex characters, choices and turn-based strategy encounters in this ambitious new adventure game

STOCKHOLM — Aug. 19, 2019 — Indie studio Lionbite Games has revealed that the story-driven adventure game Rain of Reflections will launch on Windows PC via Steam on Sept. 20, 2019. Delve into a richly layered dystopian world, survive nail-biting turn-based strategy encounters, hack systems to open new ways forward, meet a cast of strong-willed characters and make decisions that will shape the future.

Rain of Reflections: Chapter 1 – titled “Set Free” – follows Wilona, a scientist trying to cure a global epidemic of infertility. When Wilona begins to have doubts about the morality of the experiments she’s running on the world’s lastborn child, she sets off a life-or-death quest across the pristine towers of the wealthy elite, the flooded slums of the underclass, and the cold, sterile halls of the state’s laboratories.

Throughout your journey, you’ll engage in turn-based strategy encounters in destructible environments with a range of tactical options, including stealth, dialogue and combat. You’ll also breach computer systems, crack locks and eavesdrop on radio communications through a variety of hacking puzzles.

Your words matter, too. Dialogue choices can convince, defuse or outsmart other characters in a variety of fully voiced conversations, which may have serious consequences down the road. They can also influence the motivation of your allies and enemies in combat, helping to change the tide of battle at a critical moment.

Rain of Reflections’ ambitious story will feature multiple chapters, each a full tale in itself, adding layers to the world while showing completely new and fresh areas and gameplay through different perspectives. Chapter 2 – “Open Eye” – will follow a deadbeat private investigator in a cyberpunk district called The Cluster, while Chapter 3 – “Undercurrent” – will shed light on the Infrared underground resistance movement and its front figure, Imra.

Players will journey through the mystical realms of Solasta, unravelling a story that spans multiple worlds. The dynamic and mysterious world of Solasta features brand new elements of verticality, allowing players to use their surroundings as an element of strategy. Position ranged characters on high vantage points or send your thief down into shafts and caverns to scope out what’s ahead. Utilize light as a tool to explore the depths and hollows of dungeons or use it as a weapon against the creatures of the dark.

• Team Based Adventure: Players will have many options to choose races, classes, backgrounds, and can even roll for stats as they create their party. All members are essential – together you will adventure through Solasta as a group, where you must work together in pursuit of your quest.
• Light: Light will not only help to see your surroundings as you explore deep underground or in a dungeon. It can also be used as a weapon against dragons and creatures you encounter along your journey. Careful, though – light can also give away your position.

Spiders Studio’s upcoming RPG GreedFall will let you forge your destiny on uncharted lands when it arrives next month, but this is one voyage you won’t be making alone. Today’s new Companions Trailer from Spiders and Focus Home Interactive shines a light on the unique party members that will join you on your adventure, your relationships with them, and the different stories they have to tell.

How you deal with new situations as an explorer and diplomat will define your hero’s story, and the company you choose to keep plays a big part in that. Each of the companions you meet belongs to one of GreedFall’s many factions or guilds, and these organizations all have their own ambitions and prejudices, so think through your actions carefully.

Beyond the influence of their faction’s goals, each companion has their own personal quests, too. Ignore them for too long, and they may choose to leave you. Help them, and you could have an ally – or lover – for life. Your companions will notice what you say and do, so consider their reactions before committing to a decision.

Be mindful when picking which two companions to bring with you, as well: each has their own special skills to offer. If you suspect a challenging fight ahead, for example, consider taking Coin Guard mercenary Kurt, who can be kitted out as a tough front-line warrior. But be careful when negotiating with a faction one of your companions is antagonistic against — your choices will shape not only the world of GreedFall, but also the lives of those in it.

GreedFall launches on Sept. 10, 2019, on PlayStation®4, Xbox One, and Windows PC. Pre-orders are live now on all platforms at http://greedfall.com/shop.
