Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare Absolution DLC Available Now on PS4, Xbox One and PC 

Absolution Features Content for All Types of Players, Including Four New Multiplayer Maps that Reward a Variety of Different Call of Duty Play Styles

New Zombies Co-Op Experience “Attack of the Radioactive Thing!” Takes Players to the 1950s, Stars Cassandra Peterson Reprising Her Iconic Role of Elvira, Mistress of the Dark

August 9, 2017 – Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare Absolution, the third DLC Map Pack for Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare, is available now for PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC. Published by Activision and developed by Infinity Ward, Absolution features four new, diverse multiplayer maps that are designed to showcase the diverse play styles experienced within the game. The DLC pack also includes “Attack of the Radioactive Thing!” with actress Cassandra Peterson starring as Elvira in a 1950s Creature Feature zombies experience.

Attack of the Radioactive Thing!, the next action-packed chapter of the Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare zombies story, once again features the return of Willard Wyler, the merciless movie director villain portrayed with voice and likeness by Paul Reubens (Pee-wee’s Big Holiday, Gotham). Wyler has trapped the four protagonists inside an all-new horror film in the style of the classic, Creature Feature movies from the 1950s. Players will fight against a new array of zombie enemies across a ravaged beach town where a government science experiment has transformed the residents into flesh-devouring zombies and introduced a new biological menace into the city. Additionally, horror movie icon Elvira, played with voice and likeness by Cassandra Peterson (Elvira: Mistress of the Dark, Elvira’s Movie Macabre), will help players survive and give them gameplay tips and side quests with her unique Elvira style. New weapons, traps and more, will augment the hallmark Call of Duty zombies action fans know and love, with Seth Green (Robot Chicken, Austin Powers) as “the Scientist;” Ike Barinholtz (Neighbors, Suicide Squad) as “the Rebel;” Jay Pharoah (White Famous, Saturday Night Live) as “the Soldier;” and Sasheer Zamata (Saturday Night Live, Pizza Mind) as “the School Girl,” all making a return to the ongoing story in this all-new experience.

In addition to Attack of the Radioactive Thing!, Absolution will also include four new multiplayer maps:

• Bermuda – A shantytown created around the remnants of a crashed ship, Bermuda allows players to duck, dive, and wall ride from the fish market to the lighthouse in this small to medium sized map that’s been water-wasted and sandblasted.
• Permafrost – Set within the chill of a frozen city skyline, Permafrost lets players stick to the ground and pick their plan of attack in one of three main lanes. They will traverse the map, moving from street side to train station, and hobo village to wrecked theatre house in this small, tight-quarters map.
• Fore – In Fore, the only thing miniature about this large map is the golf courses players will be fighting in. Fore features great visual variety as players swing around the sights and sounds of areas that brandish magical forests, giant creamsicles, and elevated castle walls.
• Ember – Located near an old town castle, Ember is a remake of the Modern Warfare® 3 classic map Resistance, featuring old world aesthetics retrofitted with modern technology. The surroundings include lava, gallows and a torture room, where players will want to stick close to their teammates.

Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare Absolution DLC Map Pack is available via the Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare Season Pass, which can be purchased on its own or obtained as part of the Legacy Pro or Digital Deluxe editions of the game. Season Pass gives discounted access to all four Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare DLC Map Packs released during 2017 (discount based on a Season Pass suggested retail price of AUD$64.95/NZD$69.95 and four individual DLC Map Packs at a suggested retail price of AUD$19.95/NZD$22.95 each).

Call of Duty Documentary ‘CODumentary’ Releasing Worldwide by Devolver Digital Films on September 19th 

Feature-length documentation of game’s meteoric rise to global blockbuster status to release on major VOD platforms worldwide and on the Steam Store 

AUSTIN – August 8th, 2017 – Devolver Digital Films announces CODumentary, a documentary following a story centered about the blockbuster video game Call of Duty, releasing worldwide on VOD on Tuesday, September 19th at 10 AM PST.

The 93-minute feature documentary, created in the UK by Jonathan Beales, explores how the video game Call of Duty grew into one of the biggest global entertainment franchise blockbusters of all time. Video game publisher/film distributor Devolver Digital will release the documentary worldwide on the Steam Store and on VOD via Amazon on September 19th, to be followed by releases on iTunes, Google Play, MGo, Playstation, Xbox, TubiTV, Indie Reign, and the Indie Rights Vimeo Channel, as well as a DVD/Blu-Ray release with dates to be announced.

The documentary details how Call of Duty, created in 2003 by Infinity Ward, faced strong competition in its early days from a host of similar high quality WWII games yet managed to rise to the top and sustain its position with a growing global fan base.

Critically acclaimed by both fans and media, the release of Modern Warfare in 2007 took the multi-player competitive element to a whole new level through a fast action innovative game-play design structure.

Filmed across North America, the UK & Europe including the D-Day beaches, the story in CODumentary is told by developers, fans, professional players and numerous games experts, who describe in rich detail what makes the game so special and why it’s been so successful from launch to the present day. Jonathan Beales is an industry professional with over 31 years experience in video games media & marketing spanning print, radio, web and television.

“One of the biggest challenges making the film was encapsulating a 15 year timeline into 93 minutes,” says producer Jonathan Beales. “I was very fortunate to work with a lot of great people whose input and contribution really helped make this happen. It’s a rich story of evolution told through the eyes of games developers, fans, industry experts and professional players. It’s a big documentary and we wanted to put the fans first so took the opportunity to host two full screenings at DreamHack Atlanta that were a big success.”

Beales continued, “It’s been a great 5-year journey and though documentary is centered on video games, the story is always about the human input and endeavor involved. The rich experiences of developing games, playing them or waiting in line to buy them will always remain center stage.”

Grimecraft’s Latest Remix Features LEGION’s International Heartthrob Sensation, August Gaunt

Sworn Enemy of the Agents of Mayhem, August Gaunt Taps Gaming’s DJ Powerhouse for Epic Boomfest

Larkspur, Calif. – August 8^th, 2017 – August Gaunt, the chiseled icon and prestigious LEGION lieutenant facing misguided opposition and baseless accusations by the Agents of Mayhem, has now been remixed by producer and award-winning DJ extraordinaire Grimecraft.

SoundCloud Link: https://soundcloud.com/deepsilvermusic/agents-of-mayhem-mixtape-grimecraft/

An expert in spinning foot-tapping beats and channeling classics into fresh, electronically-charged melodies, Grimecraft is the perfect complement to the world’s reigning king of pop, August Gaunt. The rising producer fainted a single time during August Gaunt’s gracious offer to collaborate, a physical feat that’s only surpassed by his masterful contribution to this new global summer anthem.

“I’ve been told some people don’t have lucrative Silicon Valley deals to cover their San Francisco winter homes, so letting Grimecraft work with the best vocals in the business felt like the right thing to do,” August Gaunt said as he deafeningly revved Tiffany, the vehicular crown jewel in his garage. “Giving back just feels good, you know? And the free PR boost should help make up for my next inevitable VIP rager.”

The collaboration graces fans ahead of August Gaunt’s upcoming charity concert with K-Pop sensation Aisha, which will be another prime example of music’s baby-faced salvation giving back to humanity despite enduring a ridiculous pursuit by MAYHEM, a band of misfits (including an alleged ex-adult film star) out to “save the world” who couldn’t harmonize to save their lives.

For future tour dates and chances to donate toward August Gaunt’s next artistically-freeing mansion, keep refreshing www.aomthegame.com. For chances to liberate August Gaunt from MAYHEM’s harassment by taking down the team from inside, check out Agents of Mayhem on August 15^th.

LIGHT TRACER to Bring Magical Puzzle Platform Play to PlayStation®VR in September

Oasis Games Brings New Title to the West for PS VR, Transporting Players to an Enchanting Magical Tower

August 7, 2017 – Oasis Games Ltd, a leading independent Chinese publisher, today announced that its new Puzzle Platform VR game, LIGHT TRACER, will launch in the West this September for PlayStation®VR. In the indie-developed game, players will lead a princess to the top of an enigmatic, Babel-like tower to save her ailing people, using godlike powers and a Light Staff to guide the princess while manipulating objects to create a safe path for her.

LIGHT TRACER combines platform-style movement and clever puzzles with unique play mechanics and delightful artwork. In the game, the player controls a mysterious godlike entity who can wield a magical Light Staff in one hand while using its other hand to interact with the game world, helping the Princess reach the safety of the tower’s pinnacle. The Light Staff guides the Princess forward while the player manipulates the world to get a better view, interacts with object triggers and moves items to turn barriers into bridges. As the player progresses, the entity’s hidden relationship with the princess is gradually revealed.

“LIGHT TRACER brings a new style of platform game to PS VR players, offering a journey of challenging puzzles, colossal heights and artistic visuals,” said Alen Wu, Business Director at Oasis Games. “You’ll need both hands to save the Princess: one to guide her using your Light Staff and the other to spin and manipulate the mysterious tower to open a path to save her people from a tragic fate.”

The Princess’s journey comprises eight varied chapters ranging from ice to gravity puzzles to mechanical contraptions, and each level ends with a challenging boss fight requiring strategy as well as quick reflexes. Players will guide the Princess through action-platform stages with jumping, timing and enemies—but they must also engage with mind-bending puzzles in each level. Often the solution depends not only on your intellect, but also in the way you look at things!

FEATURES

·     A New Kind of VR Puzzle Platformer: Guide the Princess through platform-style challenges with jumps, enemies and precise timing requirements while manipulating the world and solving clever puzzles that depend on your point of view—literally!

·     The Powers of a God: Wield your powerful Light Staff in one hand while interacting with the world with the other to open a path upward
·     Enchanting Graphics: A compelling, almost toy-like world comes to life as you ascend the giant tower and interact with the Princess
·     Eight Unique Worlds: From Gravity World to Ice World to Mechanica World, each chapter offers new puzzles and challenges
·     A View to a Thrill: Grab and spin the tower for fresh perspectives that may unveil the answer to the riddles in front of you
·     Battle with Bosses: Each chapter ends with a unique boss fight where you must use both strategy and quick reflexes to overcome opponents like a rock giant or a sinister snowman

Developed by Void Dimensions and published by Oasis Games for PS VR, LIGHT TRACER will be available this September on the PlayStation®Store. This game has been rated “E for Everyone” by the ESRB.
