After a leak earlier today many already knew a little of what to expect from Watch Dogs 2 as well as when they could expect the title to be released but now Ubisoft has officially unveiled the game with an extended E3 trailer, more footage, and a few extra details. Watch Dogs 2 is set to be released on November 15th for the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC and in the game players will take on the role of Marcus Holloway.

Marcus is a brilliant young hacker who has fallen victim to ctOS 2.0’s predictive algorithms and is accused of a crime he did not commit. In Marcus’ quest to shut down ctOS 2.0 for good, hacking is the ultimate weapon, and players can not only hack into the city’s infrastructure but also every person and any connected device they possess to trigger unpredictable chains of events.

“Our creative team is working hard to deliver an outstanding WATCH_DOGS experience,” said Dominic Guay, senior producer, Ubisoft Montreal. “In WATCH_DOGS 2, we’re excited to give players a captivating storyline with engaging characters that offers deeper, more meaningful hacking options, a greater variety of gadgets and weapons, and a brand new seamless multiplayer experience that will appeal to fans of the original WATCH_DOGS as well as players new to the brand.”

The Deus Ex Universe expands with Deus Ex: Mankind Divided – Breach and Deus Ex GO

The Deus Ex Universe expands with Deus Ex: Mankind Divided – Breach and Deus Ex GO

– Deus Ex: Mankind Divided’s experience reinforced with the “Breach” mode – Deus Ex joins the GO line up-


MONTRÉAL, CANADA – 8 June 2016 – Award-winning Canadian studios Eidos®-Montréal and Square-Enix® Montréal today announced two new additions to the Deus Ex Universe®: Deus Ex: Mankind Divided® – Breach and Deus Ex GO™, both bringing new elements to the rich transmedia universe.

Deus Ex: Mankind Divided Breach is an innovative game mode included in Deus Ex: Mankind Divided. This new take on the game offers, for the very first time, an arcade approach on the gameplay of Deus Ex: Mankind Divided, providing players with a connected puzzle shooter experience. As a Ripper, your objective is to obtain and sell highly classified corporate data by infiltrating some of the world’s most secure servers, using the funds you acquire to upgrade both your skills and arsenal. As you play, the rewards you earn, including XP, credits, and booster packs, will allow you to face the increasing difficulty of the game. Challenge yourself, your friends, and people from around the world in the ultimate Deus Ex® arcade twist. Deus Ex: Mankind Divided Breach is a live game mode, introducing new challenges and features by rolling out updates on a regular basis.

“We are introducing a brand new game mode to Deus Ex. In addition to being a new visual approach for the players, the Breach mode broadens the lore of the Deus Ex universe” said David Anfossi, Head of Studio at Eidos-Montréal. “Breach also reinforces Deus Ex: Mankind Divided’s gameplay experience with a totally different setting”

Deus Ex GO is a turn-based infiltration puzzle game set in a stylized interpretation of the Deus Ex Universe. As double agent Adam Jensen, you’ll use hacking, combat, and augmentations to solve the most challenging puzzles of the entire GO series. Work alongside your allies in TF29 and the Juggernaut Collective as you infiltrate locations to unravel the conspiracy behind a terrorist plot.”

“With Deus Ex, we are taking the GO franchise to another level. We are building on the learnings of Hitman™ and Lara Croft® to go a step further with Deus Ex in terms of visual, game design and social features” said Patrick Naud, Head of Studio at Square Enix Montreal.

The Deus Ex Universe is also expanding outside of the video game world: Eidos-Montréal has partnered with Open Bionics, the award-winning robotics start-up and Razer, the world leader in creating connected devices and software for gamers to bring Deus Ex inspired augmentations to life. The three companies will partner up to help bridge the gap between fiction and reality, working together to design, 3D print, scan, power, and create affordable bionic hands. This initiative will combine the expertise of each company, with the ultimate goal being to make fashionable robotic prosthesis accessible to a larger audience. More information can be found here.

Deus Ex: Mankind Divided will launch on August 23rd for PlayStation®4, Xbox One, and Windows PC.

Deus Ex GO will be arriving this summer on phones and tablets.

Action RPG, HIT Pushes Mobile Gaming to its Limits

Action RPG, HIT Pushes Mobile Gaming to its Limits

New trailer showcases incredible visuals and character line-up; 50,000 preregistered players so far


Berlin, Germany – 8th June 2016 – Nexon and NAT Games have released a brand new trailer for their upcoming action RPG, HIT (Heroes of Incredible Tales), that showcases the visual spectacle of the title, in addition to highlighting the varied character roster. HIT’s stunning graphics are so good, that you won’t believe this is a mobile game while watching the trailer!

Coming to IOS and Android this summer, HIT is set to be the premier action RPG on mobile devices. Developed by a team world-class engineering team at NAT Games lead by Yong-Hyun Park, the renowned lead designer behind Lineage II and TERA, and powered by Unreal Engine 4, it delivers incredible, triple-A visuals – the likes of which have never before seen on mobile screens. Fast and fluid combat lies at the core of the HIT experience, and as aerial combos are executed, foes thrown and pushed down the action doesn’t let up – delivering an intensely satisfying experience, both mechanically and visually.

Four varied characters will be available at launch, each of which has their own highly customisable skill tree; giving players the opportunity to dramatically change the dynamics of combat and tailor the action to suit their own style.

Hugo, the first of four Heroes, wields a bigger-than-enormous sword into battle, as is more than capable of dispatching whoever stands in his way. When his roar echoes throughout the battlefield, it’s only a matter of time before the enemy is annihilated. Dual-wielding, Lucas handles his blades like no other. Even the strongest enemy quivers in fear of his merciless blades. While, Anika uses a scythe to deftly cut down those that stand between her and her goal, acrobatically bouncing from foe-to-foe. Finally, Kiki is able to harness the mysterious power of nature, transforming the elements into deadly weapons; throwing lightning at her enemies, or summoning a massive water dragon to obliterate those that oppose her.

HIT pre-registrations are now open to Western audiences. A staggering 50,000 users have already signed up, guaranteeing themselves access to unique in-game rewards. Even more rewards can be gained by all players reaching the next level of preregistrations.

So don’t delay, stay up to date on the latest HIT news by liking Nexon on Facebook, or pre-registering for the game at: hitmobile.nexon.com

Step into the shoes of Fenix, a really sweet creature of speed and (blocky) cuteness… then feel his boundless rage. He is pissed! You would be too if your village was decimated by a huge explosion (and your game name was legally blocked!), leaving only two survivors: Fenix and the mysterious enemy Oktarus. Fenix will track down this shadowy villain through nine worlds, defeating righteously brutal bosses and hundreds of minions bent on his destruction, on a mission to return harmony back to his world. And to get cookies.

Winner of the Gamemaker Game of The Year award, Fenix Furia is now available for PlayStation®4 and the Xbox One via the ID@Xbox self-publishing program.
