Poppermost Productions’ Open World Winter Sports Game SNOW Lands in Early Access Beta on PlayStation®4

STOCKHOLM – Oct. 25, 2016 – Poppermost Productions’ SNOW, the massive, open world winter sports game, has entered an early access beta on the PlayStation®4 computer entertainment system, opening the mountain for players to shred online together on consoles for the very first time.

“It’s been quite the adventure getting SNOW this far, and we’re incredibly excited to take the next jump together with the PlayStation community,” said Alexander Bergendahl, CEO and game director at Poppermost. “We’ve put a great deal of time and dedication into ensuring each winter sport represented in SNOW faithfully captures the very unique feel of that activity. The world of SNOW is a true playground for fans of winter to enjoy.”

SNOW’s beta is available as early access for players who purchase the SNOW Founder’s Pack for $19.99 through the PlayStation®Store. The bundle comes with over $30 worth of clothing and exclusive equipment, including a special ski outfit, snowboard outfit and PlayStation-exclusive gold snowmobile and gold drone. Founder’s Pack owners who are subscribed to PlayStation®Plus will also receive an additional ‘80s-themed outfit to wear out on the slopes.

SNOW’s sprawling mountain wonderland has changed dramatically since the game was first announced for the PlayStation®4 system. SNOW arrives on consoles with the option to ski, snowboard or snowmobile across its vast, towering terrain. Poppermost has handcrafted over two dozen unique locations to explore, including an ancient castle, mountain observatory and cargo plane wreck. The studio has also partnered with ESPN to bring the Winter X Games to SNOW’s beta. Players can tackle Slopestyle, Super Pipe and Big Air courses from the 2016 Winter X Games in Aspen, recreated in-game with detailed accuracy. Those who successfully complete all three events with gold medals will unlock an exclusive X Games hoodie.

SNOW will eventually launch as a free-to-play title on the PlayStation®4 system, supported by an in-game store featuring cosmetic equipment, apparel and more from some of the biggest real-life winter sports brands. Players will also eventually be able to purchase additional events and mountains. Support for PlayStation®VR is currently in development, and the game is also available for Windows PC through Steam Early Access.

AMSTERDAM – Oct. 25, 2016 – Gambitious Digital Entertainment and independent developer Vile Monarch have teamed up to launch the insult dueling game Oh…Sir!!

There are six quarrelsome characters from which to choose from, each with unique voices, ticks and jabs, as well as four cantankerous conflict scenarios in which to verbosely vanquish one’s foes.

Oh…Sir!! The Insult Simulator also allows audiences to play along and even impact the outcomes of games with the option to enable Twitch integration in any gameplay mode. Spectators can vote on their favorite insults to influence how much damage each offense deals.

Oh…Sir!! The Insult Simulator is available worldwide today for $1.99 on Windows PC, Mac and Linux via Steam, as well as iOS and Android devices through the App Store and Google Play, respectively.

DARK SOULS III: Ashes of Ariandel also includes Undead Matches, a brand new way to play online against other DARK SOULS III: Ashes of Ariandel players around the world. By entering these multiplayer matches players can honorably duel against a fellow Cursed Undead, or do battle in free-for-all brawls or team-based fights for up to five other players. Entry into the Undead Matches does not come easily though, as adventurous players must first defeat a fearsome foe hidden within the world of Ariandel.

DARK SOULS III: Ashes of Ariandel is now available for download on PlayStation®4 computer entertainment system, Xbox One, and PC via STEAM for a suggested price of €14.99. A season pass for DARK SOULS III which includes the DARK SOULS III: Ashes of Ariandel and a second expansion, expected to be released in early 2017, is available for purchase for €24.99 for all versions of the game.
