SYDNEY, Australia – October 17, 2018 – Ubisoft® announced that Starlink: Battle for Atlas™, an all-new action-adventure game developed by Ubisoft Toronto, is available on Nintendo Switch, the PlayStation®4 computer entertainment system and the Xbox One family of devices. This open-world space saga features modular toy technology that allows players to assemble and customize real-world physical starships, link the starships to their game controller, and launch into an epic adventure across the Atlas star system, either in single player or with a friend in two-player split-screen local co-op. Each modular component and pilot attached to the starship appears instantly in-game, allowing players to directly affect the course of their battle in a meaningful way.
“Starlink: Battle for Atlas is a project born from our team’s passion for space and adventure games – it’s a game we imagined playing as kids, and we are thrilled to share it with players of all ages today,” said Matthew Rose, Producer at Ubisoft Toronto. “We can’t wait to see how players will use their imaginations to combine wings, weapons and pilots to create the starship of their dreams to help them defeat the Forgotten Legion and save the Atlas star system.”
Starlink starship components and pilots are all compatible with each other*, allowing players to take full advantage of their imagination to creatively mix and match parts to adapt and overcome any challenge they will face in the game. The modular toys and dynamic combat mechanics let players explore multiple ways to achieve objectives and approach any obstacle by experimenting with different pilot abilities, weapons, and ships, unleashing devastating combos upon their enemies.
Starlink: Battle for Atlas also offers open-world gameplay, spanning a full star system which players can explore with total freedom. Built from the ground up in the Snowdrop engine, the game allows seamless travel through and around the exotic alien worlds of the Atlas star system, teeming with life and unique challenges across seven different planets.

Players can play through the entire campaign as Fox McCloud and embark on exclusive missions in Atlas to take down Star Fox team rival Wolf O’Donnell.
Players can start building their collection with the Starlink: Battle for Atlas Retail Starter Pack, which includes the game, one starship, one pilot, a variety of weapons, the Starlink controller mount, and a poster. The Nintendo Switch Starter Pack will also include the Arwing star ship as well as the Fox McCloud pilot. Players can expand their collection and experience with additional ships, weapons, and pilots available separately for purchase. In addition, Starlink: Battle for Atlas allows players to continue their adventure without their physical toys at any time, unlocking digital versions of each physical component when connected to the game – a great feature for those players wanting to play their game on the go on Nintendo Switch.

The heroes need to uncover the mysteries behind their current predicament and return back home; and finding the eight Ouroboros Bracelets is the key to their safe return.

In this distorted, merged version of their worlds, all warriors are unexpectedly gifted with a Sacred Treasure that fuels their spell-casting attacks.

Madness Strikes with World of Tanks Blitz In-Game Halloween Event
Take part and earn two unique tanks designed by world-famous Mad Max artist Peter Pound
October 16, 2018 — With the Halloween season approaching, World of Tanks Blitz has collaborated with Mad Max: Fury Road’s Principle Vehicle Designer and Concept Artist, Peter Pound, to open the Mad Games event. A terrifying trick or tasty treat? Players will find out in the arena.
Pound has created two new tanks which will only be unlockable during the event: the Tier V Scavenger and the Tier VII Gravedigger. To obtain the Scavenger, players need to earn 50 victories in battle, while the Gravedigger will require them to complete a set of battle missions.
These two tanks join the Artists’ Signature Series, an exclusive selection for World of Tanks Blitz, that began with legendary Gundam designer Kunio Okawara’s tank, the O-47.
“Working together with the World of Tanks Blitz team, I was able to create some unique designs and given creative freedom,” states Peter. “With Mad Max: Fury Road, I was focused on car designs but the challenge here was taking tanks and making them even more heavy metal! I enjoy a challenge and it was a cool experience. Now I hope everyone enjoys the hard work put into these steel beasts.”
Alongside Pound’s creations, the Mad Games features an exclusive post-apocalyptic mode, where sandstorms have destroyed the landscapes of World of Tanks Blitz. Tankers will be able to utilize special and powerful abilities like invisibility, shields and armor restoration. The Mad Games begin October 17 and run through to November 12.
To get everyone ready for this year’s festivities, the Garage now has a post-apocalyptic flavor, maps have become a bit more haunting and an assortment of unique tank customization items are ready to spook out other tankers. Tanks from previous Halloween events also make a welcome return, including: 2015’s Tankenstein and 2016’s Dracula and Helsing.
