‘FISSION SUPERSTAR X’ LAUNCHES MAY 21 ON XBOX ONE AND PC

Experience a weird, relentless solar tour in this absurd space rogue-lite

May 2nd, 2019 — Turbo Pelvis 3000 inc. announce its space rogue-lite Fission Superstar X will launch May 21st on Xbox One and Windows PC for $14.99 — with respective pre-order and wishlist options available now! Blast off in Dr. Leopold’s bomber in this relentless shooter. Tour the solar system on a desperate randomly generated bomb run, facing impossible odds in an attempt to achieve the demented dream of an insane scientist.

Fission Superstar X takes place in a wacky version of the solar system, featuring nine unlockable ships, over 100 different crew members from humans to space bears, 64 different weapons both mundane and insane, over 20 different environments, and over 70 different enemy types including scavengers, fascist space cats, and giant insects. You’ll fight your way through over 20 different environments and face off against giant bosses on your journey through the solar system.  

Fight using ranged and up-close weaponry while dodging and blocking attacks with your shield. Manage your ship to assemble the perfect crew and install the most destructive weapons, but be prepared to make some difficult decisions along the way – do you repair a damaged component, heal a wounded member of the crew, or upgrade your stats? Do you dock at a station and spend time dodging an angry Planetoid or skip that stop for an easier run through a colorful space aurora? It’s up to you to decide the best course of action! When a giant insect shrimp gives you a beating on Saturn, just hit the detonate button and blow up your nuclear superstar – that will show them! 

You will die a lot in Fission Superstar X, and that will only make your eventual victory taste that much sweeter!

Hunt: Showdown Team Releases Update 6.0, New Boss

The Assassin – a challenging new boss – is now on the loose in Crytek’s multiplayer bounty hunting game

FRANKFURT, Germany – May 2, 2019 – Hunt: Showdown fans have gotten their wish as Update 6.0, available now, brings a new boss to the playing field. The Assassin materializes in a whirlwind of bugs and rags, then spawns a pair of decoy clones in order to distract players as it comes in for the killing blow. Update 6.0 also contains six new weapons—the LeMat Revolver, Lebel Rifle, Bomb Lance, Alert Trip Mine, Concertina Trip Mine and Ammo Box—and three new traits—Vulture, Ghoul and Adrenaline. Players can get a look at all of these additions in a new video on the Hunt YouTube channel.

The new boss comes at the request of the Hunt community, and so Crytek has published an Assassin video dev diary in which Character Art Director Abdenour Bachir, Senior Character Artist Chris Goodswen, Junior Technical Designer Robert Green, and Lead Concept Artist Artem Shumnik discuss the creation process in light of the Assassin’s moves and attacks, gameplay features, prototyping tools and the testing process. For those who prefer the written word, a blog about the origin of the new AI, its creation and its inspiration can be found here.

In addition to the boss, weapons, and traits, Update 6.0 also adds more Hunter character variants, tweaks to improve the experience for brand-new players, and improved hiding and unhiding of world geometry to improve performance for all players. Players can get access to all of these additions immediately on Steam and follow the latest Hunt: Showdown news on the game’s website.

About Hunt: Showdown

Hunt: Showdown is a competitive first-person bounty hunting game that packs the thrill of survival games into a match-based format. Set in Louisiana in 1895, the game boasts a mixture of PvP and PvE elements that creates a uniquely tense experience. It’s not just the creatures who are a threat—it’s every Hunter on the map. In the classic game mode, a match of Hunt pits ten players—playing solo or in teams of two—against each other as they race to take out gruesome beasts for a bounty they must collect and get off of the map, while Hunt’s quickplay mode offers a shorter match for solo players to scavenge for weapons as they compete for a diminishing pool of bounty. The higher the risk, the higher the reward – but a single mistake could cost everything. Hunt is available now on Steam. For more information, visit https://www.huntshowdown.com/.
