Two New Adventures from Phoenix Online Publishing Coming in 2018: “A Rite from the Stars” and “Bleeding Moons”

Phoenix Online Publishing, where Every Game Has a StoryTM, is today announcing two exciting new additions to their adventure game catalog: A Rite from the Stars, releasing this summer, and Bleeding Moons, coming later this year. Both games will be available for download from the Phoenix Online store (store.postudios.com), as well as Steam and other channels.

About A Rite from the Stars
The debut game of Spanish developer Risin’ Goat, A Rite from the Stars is a fun and clever point & click adventure game about Kirm, a young mute boy chosen by the Stars to undertake a mystical rite of passage to become a legend among his people.

In this coming-of-age story, players will explore the Mystical Island of Kaikala, home to the Makoa tribe, and pursue the three paths of Wisdom, Courage, and Spirit in any order they choose. Each path introduces new mechanics to solve unique challenges, ranging from action sequences to musical puzzles, with Kirm’s playable meerkat companion Mirk and guiding star Hoku on hand to collaborate on puzzle solutions and lend insight along the way.

A Rite from the Stars features beautiful 3D environments, a fully orchestrated soundtrack recorded with a live chorus, and a complete original Makoan language developed for the game!

A second son not destined for greatness or inheritance, Ian is caught up in political intrigue and a violent war he was not prepared for, and now struggles with what he must do. Your choices will affect not only the outcome of the war but also the shape of Ian’s soul and the love of his life as you navigate to one of many possible endings. Bleeding Moons’ top-down graphics and focus on storytelling are reminiscent of Freebird Games’ To The Moon, which IAN Games cites as an inspiration. Learn more at www.iangames.com.

Be Your Own Hero in World of Tanks: Mercenaries on June 26

Be Your Own Hero in World of Tanks: Mercenaries on June 26

Wargaming takes its biggest franchise into the next phase of its evolution on PlayStation®4 and Xbox

June 7, 2018 — World of Tanks, the global phenomenon that has attracted over 250 million players to date across PC, mobile and console platforms, is going through a radical change on PlayStation®4 and Xbox as it evolves into World of Tanks: Mercenaries, the game’s largest expansion to date.

With the deployment of Update 4.5 on June 26, the Mercenaries will rise. World of Tanks: Mercenaries plunges the game into a radical new reality, where history has changed and rules mean nothing. Endless wars have left the world fractured, and in the vacuum of power left by the destabilization of global powers, soldiers and civilians are now fighting for themselves. Anyone can be their own hero in the age of Mercenaries, and World of Tanks: Mercenaries invites players across the globe to join the fight.

A brand new Mercenaries ‘nation’ and a full Tech Tree of never-before-seen vehicles will be introduced to the game, giving players the chance to work towards a fascinating armada of powerful vehicles, helmed by unique Mercenary crews. Tailored to the new characters’ traits and needs, the vehicles are comprised of parts scavenged from vehicles of different nations and brought together to create something truly original. Five vehicles will be available at launch, so too will the Mercenary nation grow over the weeks and months to come.

Players will be introduced to the alternate reality of World of Tanks: Mercenaries through a thrilling new PvE story campaign: The Heist. An action-packed tale of espionage, nuclear tensions, and adrenaline-fueled tank battles, this adventure follows a motley crew of Mercenaries contracted to set up, execute, and escape from a raid on a secret facility. Their mission is to steal nuclear material for a client who harbours his own atomic ambitions, but the crew soon find themselves at the mercy of the combined powers of the United States and the Soviet Union. Players can tackle this story alone (like a true Mercenary), or band together with a friend for co-operative online multiplayer action.

In addition to the new story campaign, Mercenaries will have a far-reaching impact across the entire game, with the addition of new maps to Multiplayer battles. Players can expect to explore and fight through an array of fan-favourite maps ravaged by war and time, with original Mercenary vehicles available to battle with or against the game’s existing roster of over 680 vehicles.

World of Tanks: Mercenaries is the future of World of Tanks on consoles. Players can expect more electrifying Mercenaries content in the future, with frequent updates occurring post-release.

About World of Tanks: Mercenaries

World of Tanks: Mercenaries is a team-based massively multiplayer online action game dedicated to armored combat, created by Wargaming West in Chicago, USA. Players immerse themselves in fierce 15-v-15 tank combat with opponents from around the world, and can fight it out on more than 90 different maps, and take command of their preferred vehicle out of over 680 different tanks from 10 nations. For the first time in the history of the World of Tanks series, a new Mercenaries line allows players to forsake nationalities and take the wheel on a new range of powerful tanks, exclusive to the console experience.

World of Tanks: Mercenaries is played by more than 15 million players worldwide, and is available on all generations of PlayStation®4, Xbox One, and Xbox 360. World of Tanks: Mercenaries can be downloaded for free by all PlayStation Network and Xbox Live account holders, with stunning 4K resolution and HDR support on PlayStation®4 Pro and Xbox One X.

Take a first look at Total War™: THREE KINGDOMS, the next major historical title in the Total War strategy series, in a series of gameplay presentations hosted by Creative Assembly™ throughout the show. Inspired by the beauty and artistic style of ancient China, Total War: THREE KINGDOMS breathes life into the heroes of this fascinating period as they struggle to unite China under a single banner.

Playable on the Show Floor:

SEGA is bringing a punch-packing playable line-up to this year’s show, where many landmark titles will have their first Western hands-on demos ahead of their upcoming worldwide releases, including a duo of new ATLUS titles being announced on 8th June.

On to the line-up then with watercolour-style tactical/strategy game Valkyria™ Chronicles 4. Come by the booth and follow Squad E of the Federation in their fight for freedom against bone-chilling blizzards, waves of imperial soldiers, and the godlike powers of the Valkyria – featuring larger maps than ever before – and E3 attendees will be able to experience the opening stage of the game!

It’s been a full year since Kazuma Kiryu took his leave from the world of the Yakuza during the events of Yakuza™ Kiwami, but he returns in top form with Yakuza™ Kiwami 2 as SEGA proudly presents one of the most beloved storylines in the franchise’s history, remade in full HD in the Dragon Engine for PlayStation®4. Featuring the return of mini-games like Cabaret, a revamped clan creator and the original arcade release of Virtual-On™, Kazuma Kiryu will have plenty of leisure activities when he isn’t taking on his fierce rival, the Dragon of Kansai, Ryuji Goda.

With a playable demo on the show floor, Shining Resonance™ Refrain marks the return of the Shining series to the West after a decade. This demo will also be available for everyone at home by the time doors open! The western release of the original Shining Resonance, previously a Japanese exclusive, Shining Resonance™ Refrain is an action RPG with characters designed by the legendary Tony Taka, featuring all DLC and a brand new “Refrain Mode”, unlocking more characters than ever before.

The Blue Blur is speeding into E3 with never-before-seen content from the recently announced multiplayer racing experience, Team Sonic Racing™. Created in partnership with the award-winning studio Sumo Digital, Team Sonic Racing combines the best elements of arcade and fast-paced competitive style racing with nostalgic characters and environments from across the Sonic Universe. E3 attendees will be among the first to jump in the driver’s seat and play as Sonic, Shadow, Tails and other fan favourite characters in exhilarating single and multiplayer game modes. And don’t forget to check out the super-chic, limited-edition PUMA X SEGA RS-0 Sonic and Dr Eggman shoe collaboration which will be on display throughout the show!

With ATLUS approaching its 5th anniversary as part of the SEGA family, we’re delighted to finally have one unified stand at one of the most important gaming events of the year,” said John Clark, Executive Vice President of SEGA Europe. “We’re very excited to be showing the first romanticised Historical title in the Total War series alongside Team Sonic Racing on the very same booth as some of the most awaited Western releases of Japanese titles. I have no doubt that everyone will find something to their taste on the SEGA/ATLUS booth this year.”

During the past year, we’ve seen a strong response from fans to key western releases in the Yakuza series and have heard their voices for more Valkyria Chronicles. As part of the wealth of IP owned by SEGA, it is our pleasure to bring Yakuza Kiwami 2 and Valkyria Chronicles 4 to fans at the show,” said Naoto Hiraoka, President and CEO of Atlus U.S.A., Inc. and Senior Vice President of Publishing for SEGA of America, Inc. “This E3 also represents an important moment for ATLUS as it nears its fifth year with SEGA, and as part of that, we will have something to announce very soon for the west.”

Streaming, Giveaways and an All-New Trailer for Catherine: Full Body

Fret not if you can’t attend the show, because we will bring the show to you! We’ll be streaming throughout E3 on Twitch, YouTube and Facebook, featuring exclusive content and interviews with the producers behind our diverse line-up.
