Starbreeze, Skybound Entertainment and 505 Games have released the latest cinematic character trailer for OVERKILL’s The Walking Dead, this time revealing Grant, the third playable hero from developer OVERKILL – A Starbreeze Studio’s upcoming co-op FPS. Of all the survivors we’ve met so far, Grant may be the best prepared for the apocalypse – a steely outdoorsman who left city life behind to live out his golden years in the wilderness with his trusty scoped rifle. But as we find him back in Washington, D.C., searching for his lost family, it’s clear that while the world may have changed, the hunt is the same.

Inspired by the gruesome action of Robert Kirkman’s original graphic novels, OVERKILL’s The Walking Dead is a four-player cooperative multiplayer shooter in which players band together on a variety of missions and raids to find survivors, secure supplies and stay alive in a world where both the living and dead are a threat. Use stealth tactics to evade enemies quietly, or dismember walkers limb from limb with brute force and firepower. Each playable character has their own special abilities, skill trees, squad roles, play styles and background stories, including the heavy-hitting Aidan and Maya, the surgeon turned survivor.

OVERKILL’s The Walking Dead is expected to launch this fall on the PlayStation®4 computer entertainment system, Xbox One and Windows PC. For more information, visit https://www.overkillsthewalkingdead.com, and follow the game on Facebook, Twitter, YouTube and Instagram.

DIGITAL EXTREMES DOUBLES DOWN WITH NEW WARFRAME AND NEW GAME MODE ON PS4 AND XBOX ONE

Available Today on Consoles, the 35th Warframe Will Emerge in Warframe’s New Co-op Survival Mode

LONDON, ON – May 10, 2018 – Independent Canadian developer and publisher Digital Extremes is issuing in spring today with Beasts of the Sanctuary, available today for PlayStation®4 and Xbox One. Highlighted by the multifaceted Khora, the first new Warframe of 2018, and Sanctuary Onslaught, a totally new team-based, survival-style mode, Beasts of the Sanctuary challenges players to find the perfect balance of speed, shooting and style, all for free. Jump into the fray now to participate in the time-limited Plague Star Event, starting today, May 10 and ending Tuesday, May 22nd.

The stylistically armor-clad Khora offers a versatile combination of offensive and defensive capabilities starting with a metallic whip that strikes from a distance and follows up with a metallic Kavat (cat pet) that quickly engulfs enemies in a whirlwind of pain. The new Sanctuary Onslaught mode, where Khora can be found, enables solo players, or a squad of up to four, to quickly dash through timed portals while blasting waves of increasingly powerful enemies. Both Khora and Sanctuary Onslaught together offer fresh new ways for Tenno to harness Warframe’s cooperative chaos, and both are free with the Beasts of the Sanctuary.

Khora’s Abilities include:

• Whipclaw: Send enemies reeling with a deafening whipcrack.
• Ensnare: Bind a hapless target in living metal, entangling others who stray too close. Disperse the trap with a crack of the whip.
• Venari: Summon a ferocious, gleaming Kavat. Use again to cycle between Attack, Protect, and Heal postures.
• Strangledome: Weave a dome of living chain that ensnares and strangles any enemy within, and any foolish enough to approach.

Sanctuary Onslaught challenges players to work together to survive endless waves of Warframe enemies standing in their way of escaping through the next portal. Players must quickly slay enemies en masse while proceeding through uniquely crafted environments to random portals — and then do it all again, all against the clock!

May 10th, 2018 – Vancouver, Canada – Independent developer Over The Moon today announced that its award-winning sci-fi adventure, The Fall, is now available on the Nintendo Switch via the eShop. In The Fall, players take on the role of ARID (Armoured Robotics Interface Device), the artificial intelligence within a high-tech combat suit, whose human pilot has been rendered unconscious. It’s up to players to take control of the suit and drag his lifeless body towards help through the game’s brooding, atmospheric environments. Seamlessly integrating its narrative and interactive components, The Fall combines expansive Metroidvania-esque exploration with classic adventure-game puzzle solving. The Fall deftly sets the scene for its recent sequel, The Fall Part 2: Unbound, telling its own pulse-quickening and thought-provoking story in the process.

I can’t wait for players to dive in and gain some more insight into the world and ideas underpinning the series.”

The Fall was awarded Best Story by Giant Bomb in 2014 and has garnered further praise from critics since its initial launch. Destructoid described it as “a seductive old-school sci-fi yarn, with characters that somehow manage to represent greater ideas and exist as fully-formed beings.” Hardcore Gamer said, “The Fall pushes itself when it comes to providing a story worth sticking around for, but its excellent puzzle design and captivating setting is what’ll keep you anticipating the next installment.”

The Nintendo Switch edition of The Fall runs at a resolution of 1080p at 60fps when docked and 720p at 60fps when in handheld or tabletop mode and includes a series of lighting and rendering improvements, as well as control, gameplay, and UX enhancements carried over from its sequel, The Fall Part 2: Unbound.

The Fall will be available for £7.99/$9.99/€8.99 on Nintendo Switch and a 30% discount will be available during the first 14 days on sale on the Nintendo eShop. To celebrate the release of The Fall on Nintendo Switch, The Fall and The Fall Part 2: Unbound are also discounted by 30% on every platform – Steam (PC, Mac, Linux), Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and Nintendo Switch!

The Fall is available now on PC, Mac, Linux, PS4, Wii U, Nintendo Switch and Xbox One. The Fall Part 2: Unbound, the sequel to The Fall, is also now available now on PC, Mac, Linux, PS4, Xbox One and Nintendo Switch.

90s-inspired FPS Hellbound Rips and Tears onto PC in 2019

Survival Mode Available for Free

BUENOS AIRES – 10 May, 2018 – Hellbound, the ridiculously violent ‘90s-inspired FPS from developer Saibot Studios, rips its way onto the scene in 2019. A free Survival Mode teasing the potential of a full campaign is available today on Steam for those who can’t wait to get a taste of the slaughter.

When it’s time to destroy demons with bones, bullets, or bare hands, Hellgore is the man for the job. This big, stitched-up slab of muscle has one thing on his mind: crimson carnage. Well, he has his own fully fleshed-out backstory, but that’s not important right now. Just know that he’s no stranger to gunning down the demonic denizens of Hell.

Hellbound is a ‘90s FPS, 20 years later with old-school gameplay, and new-school quality. Remember when shooters were brutally hard, fast-paced, and violent? Imagine that rendered grotesquely in Unreal Engine 4. In the Survival Mode available today for free, Hellgore smashes and blasts monsters in a wave-based arena, reveling in chaos as heavy metal and industrial music chugs in the background. Every wave summons hordes of enemies to cleave through.

Five weapons round out Hellgore’s arsenal in Survival Mode, with more to come through frequent updates. The Headcrusher, Simple Shotgun, Triple Shotgun, Indolora (remember Ol’ Painless from Predator?), and Rocket Launcher are his implements of destruction as he takes on the soldiers of Hell. Power-ups like Hell Damage, Hell Speed, and Hell Skin increase your attack power, speed, and explosive resistance respectively.

If Kickstarter funding goals are met, Survival Mode becomes just a teaser for the single-player campaign Saibot Studios wants to create. Even more weapons, enemies, power-ups, and Hellgore’s full story are on the way if Hellbound accrues $100,000. Multiplayer modes including co-op and death matches can become a reality.

“Classic ‘90s first-person shooters were my favorite games growing up and they introduced me to video game development,” said Tobias Rusjan, founder of Saibot Studios. “I want to share that love by taking those ideas and dialing them up to 11 in the 21s century.”

For more information, please explore Hellbound’s official site, Twitter, Facebook, and Steam forums.

About Saibot Studios

Saibot Studios is an indie developer based in various parts of Argentina. With a small budget and a huge effort, the team created the Doorways series, a horror saga. Now they want to bring their love of ‘90s shooters to the forefront, marrying their goals of making games for hardcore gamers and simple-yet-satisfying mechanics.
