About Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Siege

Inspired by real-world counter-terrorist organizations, Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Siege puts players in the middle of lethal close-quarter confrontations. For the first time in a Rainbow Six game, players will engage in sieges, a new style of assault where enemies have the means to transform their environments into modern strongholds while Rainbow Six teams lead the assault to breach the enemy’s position. Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Siege gives players unprecedented control over their ability to fortify their position by reinforcing walls and floors, using barbed wire and deployable shields, laying mines and more, or to breach the enemies’ position using observation drones, setting charges, rappelling and more. The fast pace and uniqueness of each siege sets a new bar for intense firefights, strategic gameplay and competitive gaming.

Berlin, Germany – 16th November 2016: Nexon Europe today initiated Operation Janus, consisting of Graphics Engine, UI/UX and Matchmaking updates for the online FPS, Combat Arms.

Operation Janus Beta begins with the overhaul of the original LithTech Jupiter engine, which now supports advanced graphical features comparable to modern game engines. Players will eventually have the option of either selecting the original or updated engine, whilst allowing players with different graphics setting to play on the same server.

Early 2017 will see the second part of Operation Janus with the implementation of the UI/UX and Matchmaking updates. The User Interface will be even easier to navigate with the aspect ratio, changing from 4:3 to 16:9, games being accessible in just two clicks, and users being able to customise their own shortcuts to suit their personal taste. To conclude this evolution process, players will then enjoy a brand new matchmaking system, which provides them with a balanced gameplay experience by matching them with players of a similar skill level.

Beta key distribution for the first phase of Operation Janus started today, allowing selected players to test the improved engine. Players can connect with the Combat Arms team through the official website, forums and social media, for a chance to grab one of the most-wanted access keys.

Techland unveils Nano character class video for Torment: Tides of Numenera

November 16, 2016 – Wroclaw, Poland Techland is delighted to lift the lid on the ‘Nano’ character class, making its debut in Torment: Tides of Numenera.

Note: We will be pushing out two more Character Class videos during the next two weeks so stay tuned for the next one in a weeks’ time!

Nanos are the sorcerers of the game, blessed with the ability to alter reality to gain an advantage over other character classes. Unlike the use of magic, however, Nanos have an innate ability to tap into ancient, advanced technology (known as Numenera) left by previous civilizations. As their defensive abilities are limited Nanos should be used as ranged characters where they can read the minds of their enemies, unleash a combination of ranged attacks and warp themselves (plus fellow party members) around the battlefield to gain a strategic edge.

Torment: Tides of Numenera is an epic role-playing-game set across Monte Cook’s stunning science-fantasy world that takes place a billion years into the future. Offering exploration and innovative turn-based combat, Tides of Numenera is a unique experience that is a thematic successor to the critically acclaimed Planescape: Torment.

For more info on Torment: Tides of Numenera, check out the tormentgame.com website.

Torment: Tides of Numenera will be available on PC, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One in 2017.
