RISING STAR GAMES ANNOUNCES TRIFECTA OF GAMES TO BE SHOWN AT PAX EAST: TRAILBLAZERS, RICO, AND DECAY OF LOGOS

RISING STAR GAMES ANNOUNCES TRIFECTA OF GAMES TO BE SHOWN AT PAX EAST: TRAILBLAZERS, RICO, AND DECAY OF LOGOS

You’re Invited to Meet the Devs and Experience our 2018 Roster of Games Hands-On!

Los Angeles, CA – March 27, 2018 Videogame publisher Rising Star Games announced today it will be publicly showing its recently announced 2018 lineup of titles, Trailblazers, RICO, and Decay of Logos, for the first time to media and consumers at PAX East in Boston, on Thursday, April 5 through Sunday, April 8. Media outlets are invited to book an appointment to meet with each of the three developers to experience these titles hands-on for the first time!
Trailblazers is a fresh new co-operative racing title with an innovative on-track game mechanic: paint the track, boost on your color, and work as a team to win! Racing in teams up to three-versus-three, players paint the track as they race, capturing key areas to dynamically change the racing line, then boosting on their team’s color. Racers who drive with flair and style will also amass skill points to blaze their way to victory! Trailblazers is developed by UK based development studio Supergonk, with members that have worked at highly acclaimed racing studios including Codemasters, Bizarre Creations, and Criterion.

RICO is an arcade-style, first-person shooter inspired by modern action cinema. Players pair up as a pair of loose-cannon police partners, given twenty-four hours to crack a case as part of an elite organized crime taskforce. Planning is tactical, and players must react in the moment to shootouts as they develop, with additional extra time to assess the situation if they are able to surprise their enemies. RICO features plenty of ammo and enemies, and the combat is punchy and impactful, supported by an extensive destruction system that ensures every shot looks and feels great! RICO is developed by Bristol Games Hub based developer Ground Shatter.

Decay of Logos is an immersive action role-playing game inspired by European folklore, high fantasy fiction, and archetypal classic third-person action-RPG videogames. The game hails from the imagination of lead game designer and programmer André Constantino and is developed by award-winning independent software organization Amplify Creations. In Decay of Logos, players explore a vast and interconnected world, packed with secret locations and items to discover. Adventurers will engage in deadly and punishing combat with other-worldly enemy constructs, and discover a world filled with arcane lore as they unravel the intricacies of the game’s various weapon, armor, inventory and level-up systems and mechanics.

Rising Star Games will be in booth: #13070.
