TAKE TO THE SKIES WITH EAGLE FLIGHT™ – THE FIRST VIRTUAL REALITY GAME FROM UBISOFT^®

SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA – October 19, 2016 –Ubisoft has announced that its first Virtual Reality game, Eagle Flight, is now available on Oculus Rift and will be available on PlayStation^®VR on November 8 and HTC Vive on December 20.

Developed by FunHouse, a division of Ubisoft Montreal, Eagle Flight is set 50 years after humans have disappeared from Earth, where wildlife and nature have taken over Paris. The game lets players explore one of the most visited cities from a new point of view, as a bird of prey. As an eagle, players glide past historic landmarks and weave through narrow streets and secret passages. In single-player mode, players refine their flying skills, learning new tricks by competing in challenges and in multiplayer face-off in a heart-pounding capture-the-prey dogfights for up to three vs three players.

Eagle Flight, developed specifically for VR, focuses strongly on accessibility and comfort. The game features a VR control technology breakthrough that provides players with natural and precise movement controls. With this breakthrough players can comfortably hone their flying skills in order to achieve remarkable aerial manoeuvres, and experience the true sensation of flight.

“At Ubisoft we care deeply about innovation and new technology, so we’re excited to release Eagle Flight, our first Virtual Reality game,” said Patrick Plourde, VP of FunHouse. “Eagle Flight is a fantastic game for newcomers to VR and experienced players alike. The game is very intuitive, so novice players can simply boot up the game and fly at their own pace with ease. For more seasoned players looking for a more intense experience, they can jump into the single player challenges or into a multiplayer match where they will have to expertly navigate the streets, skies and underground of Paris as they try to capture the prey and defeat their opponents.”

Eagle Flight marks the first virtual reality game launch for Ubisoft, who are also working on Werewolves Within™, Star Trek^TM: Bridge Crew and a VR partnership with the film company, SpectreVision.

Fight For Glory with the New ‘Gladiatrix Update’ in Starpoint Gemini Warlords on PC

‘Gladiatrix Update’ Trailer and New Screenshots Released

Haarlem, The Netherlands – October 18 2016 – Iceberg Interactive and developer Little Green Men Games today released a major update to their popular Steam Early Access title Starpoint Gemini Warlords. With the Gladiatrix update, players are offered a completely new gameplay option, by now being able to set up their matches and battle against other ships, testing their skills with the new ‘direct combat’ system.

Some highlights of the update:

• Added Arena battle gameplay mode (Arena structure with “skirmish” battles. The first Arena out of several planned)
• Added entirely new skill system
• Added Artefact Vault system (with quests and rewards)
• Redesigned combat system to accommodate the new Arena gameplay mode and different application of skills

Mario Mihokovic, CEO of Little Green Men Games says: “As we go full-steam ahead with Warlords development, some fans have shown concern that the game lacks something to expand gameplay until the storyline and full conquest has been added. Our antidote is the Arena agmeplay mode. Now you’ll be able to set up your own “matches”, see more ships and test your unique skills without having to travel halfway across Gemini. With Arena, we’re also introducing a completely new skill system and new direct combat mechanics. We’re keen to hear feedback on the new direction we’re taking…”

JACKBOX GAMES LAUNCHES THE JACKBOX PARTY PACK 3 ON PLAYSTATION®4, XBOX ONE, WINDOWS PC, MAC AND AMAZON FIRE TV

YOU DON’T KNOW JACK® Studio’s Latest Entertaining Game Bundle Features Five Completely New Titles

CHICAGO – Oct. 18, 2016 – Jackbox Games, independent developer of hilarious party games like Drawful, Quiplash and YOU DON’T KNOW JACK®, keeps the tradition of making holiday parties a roaring success with The Jackbox Party Pack 3. Like its predecessors, this newest bundle in the series features five multiplayer games that use phones or tablets as controllers. By visiting Jackbox.tv and entering a room code, players anywhere in the world can join the fun – and up to 10,000 spectators can participate in the audience, in some instances affecting the outcome of the game.

The Jackbox Party Pack 3 features four totally original titles: Trivia Murder Party challenges up to eight contestants to test their knowledge while being held captive by a hilariously unstable serial killer; Guesspionage is a game of percentages that asks up to eight players to guess the public’s answers to thought-provoking questions; Tee K.O. combines your artistic side with witty wordplay by turning drawings and slogans from up to eight players into hysterical T-shirts; and Fakin’ It tasks up to six players with secret, ridiculous instructions, with the exception of one clueless player who must lie and cheat to avoid being discovered as “The Faker.”

The pack’s fifth title is the exciting return of a party game favorite. Quiplash 2 is a bigger, better version of the original, with more say-anything prompts and a new final round, The Last Lash. And for the first time, Quiplash 2 allows users to write their own custom prompts, making it infinitely replayable.

The Jackbox Party Pack 3 also includes improved audience and streaming features. VIP status within games allows censoring of unruly players or audience members, keeping games troll-free. And for family game nights, mature content can be eliminated in Guesspionage, Fakin’ It and Quiplash 2 with the Family Friendly Filter.

The Jackbox Party Pack 3 is available today as a digital title for the PlayStation®4 computer entertainment system via the PlayStation®Store (in North America), Windows and Mac via Steam, and Amazon Fire TV. It will be available on the PlayStation®4 system in Europe on Oct. 19, as well as worldwide on Xbox One through the Xbox Games Store on Oct. 21. All formats are priced at $24.99.

According to Tan, “The value of THX rests in its bedrock competencies with certification, optimization of audio and intellectual property development. We expect Ty, Laurie, and the executive team and employees of THX, who we have also retained, to continue leading the world in innovations and technology in the audiovisual space.”
