Supernatural 3D Narrative The Midnight Sanctuary Arrives 4 Oct. on Switch, PlayStation 4, PSVR, Steam

Steam VR Support to Follow

TOKYO – 12 Sept. 2018 – The Midnight Sanctuary, the occult suspense 3D novel from Sony publishing label UNTIES and developer CAVYHOUSE, will shake players to their core on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, PSVR and Steam on 4 Oct. VR support will haunt Steam at a future date.

The people of Daiusu, a long-isolated Japanese village, revere a mystic woman known as “The Saint.” Once persecuted for their religious beliefs but wishing to become a modern tourist destination, locals have built a grand cathedral in her honor and to attract visitors.

Famous historian Hamomuro Tachibana, voiced by popular Japanese actress Yū Shimamura (Final Fantasy XV, The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, Attack on Titan) is invited to Daiusu to catalog its past and familiarize locals with the outside world.

But not all is as it seems. Quickly into her journey Tachibana witnesses residents appearing and disappearing, leaping off cliffs, and twisting themselves in half. Are these people dead… or not quite? Has “The Saint” returned to the mountain village? If so, does she bring salvation or herald the end?

The Midnight Sanctuary blurs the line between reality and surreal both in storytelling and visual style. Blending static 2D textures and moving 3D models creates a striking visual effect, further enhanced in VR. The Midnight Sanctuary’s graphics, which incorporate a stained glass-style to create a beautiful aesthetic, provides an eerie background for the alarming events Tachibana encounters.

“The mysteries of The Midnight Sanctuary carry many unexpected twists and turns,” said John Davis, G&R Representative, UNTIES. “CAVYHOUSE has really outdone themselves with the graphics, creating stunning visuals to underline the strange story of Daiusu village.

The Midnight Sanctuary will be available on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, PSVR, and Steam for $9.99 USD and will support English text localization and full audio and text in Japanese.

Fight for Your Crown 27 Sept. in Exorder on Nintendo Switch

Price Drop on Steam, PC-Nintendo Switch Crossplay

WARSAW, Poland – 12 Sept., 2018 – Exorder, the fantasy turn-based tactical RPG from Fat Dog Games and Solid9 Studio, marches onto Nintendo Switch 27 Sept., 2018. The Steam price will drop to match the console price point of $12.99 USD / €12.99.

Charge into battle as Princess Beyla, defender of the crown and protector of the kingdom. Exorder boasts intense skirmishes with more than 10 battle units. Each unit features distinct and quirky skills with different model and stat variants to choose from. Combat is easy to pick up, but the game’s multiplayer skirmishes demand a master to climb the ranks in global leaderboards.

Learn the ropes in a quick single-player campaign by fighting to defend Cerulean, a humble kingdom threatened by a not-so-humble Prince Tristan. After saving the day, prepare to challenge a single foe online in quick match or queue in for a heated battle of up to four players in a custom game. Exorder has both online and local multiplayer options to throw down with friends far away or on the couch. Crossplay allows Nintendo Switch and PC owners to wage war against each other.

Battles between three warring nations span eight skirmish maps that promote strategic planning and the occasional overly boisterous winner. Carefully predict enemy turns and choose unit placements and skills wisely: one wrong tradeoff can lead to an unforgiving end (and perhaps a strained friendship).

Exorder is a bright, colorful adventure with cheerful music and a delightful cast of characters that drive Cerulean’s fantastical, all-ages tale. The sights and sounds of this troubled kingdom charm for hours in both an easy to pick up single-player campaign and challenging multiplayer showdowns.

“This is a love song to the classic games in the turn-based tactics genre,” said Darek Skrzypkowski, CEO, Fat Dog Games. “Exorder is a brilliant and welcoming tribute to that scene with its vibrant colors, quirky humor and intuitive mechanics made even better when played with friends.”

For more information, please visit Exorder’s official website, join its Discord server and follow Solid9 Studio on Twitter and Facebook.

Exorder is currently available on Windows, Mac and Linux via Steam for $12.99 USD and supports English with subtitles available in Polish. The game will be available digitally for Nintendo Switch for $12.99.

COMPLETE YOUR ULTIMATE JOURNEY INTO THE HEART OF FERRARI WITH THE “FERRARI ESSENTIALS PACK”: AVAILABLE NOW FOR PROJECT CARS 2

Slightly Mad Studios and BANDAI NAMCO Entertainment Europe are proud to announce the release of the fourth and final expansion pack for Project CARS 2, the Ferrari Essentials Pack, now available as a standalone purchase, or as part of the Project CARS 2 Season Pass.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WjYZR0_7R-w&feature=youtu.be

Live all the passion of Maranello’s motorsport legacy around Ferrari’s very own mythical test-track, the Pista di Fiorano, and follow in the wheel-tracks of the Scuderia’s greatest racing legends. Then, fuel your adrenaline around the thrill-a-second, high-speed turns of the Mugello Circuit in eight irresistible Ferrari icons that capture all the performance, exhilaration, and decades of sporting excellence that make the Prancing Horse the world’s most cherished racing icon.

Dominate in sportscar- and GT-racing with the Ferrari 250 Testa Rossa and the Ferrari 250 GT Berlinetta, two full-blooded racing legends that overwhelmed the competition in the ’50s and ’60s, scoring hundreds of wins between them including overall wins at Le Mans and the World Championship of Makes.

Tame the raw power of the banshee-wailing, fire-spitting Ferrari 512 BB LM—a V12 monster that singularly defined its age and the ethos of big engines, big horsepower, big aero and big noise.

Explore the limits of the final car Enzo Ferrari ever created, the peerless Ferrari F40—an elemental supercar that embodied decades of Ferrari’s motorsport experience and iconic design with the purity of a machine that came with no aids, dollops of turbo-charged power, and a simple desire to thrill.

Feel the cut-and-thrust of spec’-racing at its finest in the Ferrari F355 Challenge that built the reputation of the one-make Ferrari Challenge series—the go-to championship for fun, bumper-to-bumper racing action.

And then complete your drive into decades of Ferrari passion with three of today’s most desired supercars: the track-only Ferrari FXX K with over 1,000hp and neck-twisting amounts of downforce: the irresistible Ferrari 458 Speciale A, for many one of the most complete supercars in the world: and the snarling, impudent, and menacing Ferrari F12tdf that was created by Maranello’s engineers and test-drivers with one simple purpose – to test your skills like no other.

Along with the eight cars and two tracks come six Career Events crafted to thrust Project CARS 2 drivers on an essential ride into the very soul of the Prancing Horse.

Update 7 has now also been released for Project CARS 2. Update notes are available at this link: https://pcars.games/Update7

Insurgency: Sandstorm Delayed on PC until December 12

New World Interactive and Focus Home Interactive announced they will delay the release of their realistic FPS Insurgency: Sandstorm on PC to December 12. Based on the feedback during the pre-order beta, the developers have opted to postpone the original September 18th release date. Due to the delay, the pre-order beta has been extended until the game’s launch, turning pre-orders into an unofficial early access release.

New World Interactive says they will be spending the coming months to upgrade to Unreal Engine 4.20, improve the visuals, add more cosmetics, add a server browser, implement community-run servers, add support for custom games, further optimize the game, and squish the many bugs that were reported during the beta. The developers hope that the extra optimization time will help lower the minimum specs required to play the game.

The PC delay does not appear to affect the current 2019 launch date for the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One versions.
