Gambitious Digital Entertainment Launches ThirtyThree’s Electrifying Action-Platformer RunGunJumpGun on Windows PC and Mac

AMSTERDAM – Aug. 31, 2016 – Gambitious Digital Entertainment and independent developer ThirtyThree have released the side-scrolling retro runner-platformer RunGunJumpGun. A neon fever dream of action inspired by the precision and speed of Downwell, movement of Flappy Bird and attitude of Hotline Miami, this ruthlessly challenging experience thrusts players into the jaws of death at breakneck velocity.

Armed with a massive, gravity-defying gun, players can only hope to survive RunGunJumpGun by mastering the game’s simple, two-button controls: one to explode upward in flight, the other to blast forward through obstacles. There are over 120 levels of meticulously merciless mayhem, with heart-pounding dangers and elusive pickups that demand fast thinking and reflexes to conquer. A bonus marathon mode lets players prove themselves in the ultimate test of skill against the world on the global leaderboards.

Set in a warped space-opera universe with bizarre, larger-than-life characters, RunGunJumpGun features blazing visuals, hyperkinetic sound design and a pulsing soundtrack, as well as key art from El Huervo, the creator of the distinctive cover art for Hotline Miami.

RunGunJumpGun is now available on Windows PC and Mac for $7.99 via Steam, The Humble Store, Green Man Gaming and the Mac App Store. A special edition of the game featuring its thumping digital soundtrack, a desktop wallpaper and high-resolution key art is also available for $9.99.

In addition, Gambitious Digital Entertainment has partnered with publisher Devolver Digital to offer a 25% discount for RunGunJumpGun on Steam to players who own either Downwell, Xeodrifter™, Hotline Miami or Hotline Miami 2: Wrong Number on Steam (discount may only be applied once; offer valid until Oct. 1, 2016).

Wargaming Helps Restore Stalwart KV-1 Tank

A new video shows how this iconic Soviet tank was discovered and restored

August 31, 2016 — The KV-1 is one of the most iconic tanks in Soviet World War II history, and over the past several months, Wargaming, along with The Historical and Cultural Complex Stalin Line, have been busy restoring the vehicle to fully working order. To document this journey, Wargaming has produced a special video.

In November 2015, fragments of the legendary KV-1 were discovered and salvaged from a bog in the Vitebsk region, Belarus. The salvage crew discovered a turret equipped with a rare L-11 gun, and fragments of the running gear—a sprocket wheel with two road wheels on the right side, and a part of the hull’s underside. As restoration work on the tank began, the hull was recreated on the basis of the ISU-152.

The project was dedicated to the 75^th anniversary of when Zinoviy Kolobanov and his crew put 22 German tanks out of commission during the Battle of Krasnogvardeysk. His feat is also remembered in World of Tanks with the special Kolobanov’s medal. The restored KV-1 has now become part of the museum’s vehicle collection and will participate in historical reenactments.

“Preserving history is in Wargaming’s DNA,” said Alexander Bobko, Head of Global Special Projects at Wargaming. “Earlier this year, Wargaming refurbished and transported the rare AC-1 Sentinel tank from the USA to its homeland in Australia. We’re always searching for new ways to bring history to life and share it with the public, and the KV-1 restoration and documentary is another initiative we’re excited about.”

You can discover how the KV-1 was restored in this video:

AZEROTH BURNS UNDER THE SHADOW OF THE LEGION— NEW WORLD OF WARCRAFT EXPANSION NOW LIVE!

Master the Demon Hunter hero class, take up mighty Artifact weapons, and unlock the mysteries of the Broken Isles in the latest chapter of the Warcraft saga

Sydney, Australia—August 31, 2016—A storm of fel fire rains from the heavens, and demonic armies flood into Azeroth in terrifying numbers. The Burning Legion has returned, and the sixth expansion to Blizzard Entertainment’s acclaimed massively multiplayer role-playing game, is now live!

In Legion, Azeroth faces complete obliteration as the warlock Gul’dan brings forth a demonic army more powerful than any the Horde and the Alliance have ever faced. To stop the Legion’s destructive crusade, Azeroth’s defenders must embark on a quest to unlock the mythic secrets of the Broken Isles, seek out and master Artifact weapons of legendary might, and rally like-minded champions to their cause in their Order Halls. In this desperate hour, they must also strike a forbidden pact with the outcast Demon Hunters of the Illidari, fel-twisted disciples of the dreaded Illidan the Betrayer. Should the heroes of Azeroth fail… kingdoms will burn.

“We’re excited to return to one of Warcraft’s core conflicts—the ongoing war against the Burning Legion—and send players on their most epic adventure yet,” said Mike Morhaime, CEO and cofounder of Blizzard Entertainment. “We’ve filled Legion with features and content that give players whole new ways to experience World of Warcraft, including a brand-new hero class, awesome Artifact weapons that unlock a new progression path, and more freedom to explore than ever before. We can’t wait for players to see everything in store in this expansion.”

World of Warcraft: Legion introduces a host of new features and content to aid heroes in their quest to save Azeroth:

• New Hero Class: Demon Hunter—Unleash Havoc in the form of devastating and dextrous attacks, or seek Vengeance and use your demonic powers to protect allies from harm. Demon Hunters begin their quest at level 98, so you can quickly join the battle on the Broken Isles.
• New Feature: Artifact Weapons—Seek out and master legendary Artifacts, mighty class-specific weapons from Warcraft lore—such as Ashbringer and Doomhammer—that grow in power as you use them in battle against the Burning Legion.
• New Continent: The Broken Isles—Explore new zones that dynamically scale to your level. Brave the vrykul realm of Stormheim, where mythic titan Keepers clash for control; unlock the secrets of the night elf ruins of Azsuna; free Val’sharah from the grip of the Emerald Nightmare—your path is yours to forge.
• Boost to Level 100—Head straight to the front lines of the battle against the Legion with an included level 100-character boost. Try out different classes before you commit to boosting, with Legion’s new Class Trial feature.
• New Feature: Order Halls—Gather with fellow members of your class and plan your resistance against the Legion. Command troops and champions of your order—including iconic Warcraft characters—to carry out missions to further your cause.
• New PvP Honour System—Earn new PvP-specific powers as you advance through the new Honour system, and earn rewards that benefit you whether you’re in the Arena, on the Battlegrounds, or engaging in PvE content.
• New Feature: World Quests—Experience a vast and ever-changing array of adventures for max-level characters. Hunt for rare treasures, spontaneously join forces to conquer elite bosses, and much more.

World of Warcraft: Legion is available in a Standard Edition (physical and digital versions available; RRP $69.95AUD) as well as a Digital Deluxe Edition ($94.95 AUD), which contains a hoard of in-game bonuses for a variety of Blizzard games: an Illidari Felstalker mount and pet for World of Warcraft, a Felstalker mount for Heroes of the Storm, a helm transmog and wings for Diablo III, and a pair of fel-infused StarCraft II portraits.

This all-star lineup of six well-known and highly talented pro snowboarders will be available to play in-game, adding yet another layer to the authenticity and excitement of the snowboarding experience only available in Infinite Air.*

“Working closely with the development of Infinite Air and getting these amazing riders involved in the game has been amazing,” said pro snowboarder Mark McMorris. “We wanted players to experience the same thrill we feel on the snow and it’s exciting to think that soon they will know what that adrenaline feels like.”

From the high alpine snowy mountain tops to the beloved powdery play zones, Infinite Air boasts more than 100 square miles of vast backcountry terrain in a highly detailed open world waiting to be uncovered.
