ANNO 2205™ BIG FIVE PACK FREE DLC NOW AVAILABLE

London, UK — June 6, 2016 — Today, Ubisoft^® and Blue Byte released the new Anno 2205™ Big Five Pack, a free DLC for all players, including new features, updates and ornaments.

The Big Five Pack brings Economic Warfare to the game. Player can enter the stock market and compete with the Big Five, the five most influential corporations, for shares, influence and industrial dominance. Competing with the Big Five offers new challenges and grants special rewards and powerful buffs for a richer endgame experience.

Players will have several tools at their disposal to ensure their corporation’s supremacy over the Big Five. A new resource will be introduced: influence. In the stock market, players can buy other companies’ shares during auctions. With Espionage, players can gather information and unlock special auctions to gain advantage over the Big Five.

Gaining the upper hand in this economic warfare grants players several bonuses. Owning all the shares from another company unlocks additional buffs and reaching industry dominance will grant a special reward. A new public building is also available as a reward for entering the stock market: the trading floor.

On top of introducing Economic Warfare, the Big Five update brings new features to Anno 2205: the sector effects. The Calamities, like the Hacker Attack or Climate Warfare, are temporary and can be removed by solving a counter measure quest, while the Sector Traits affect regions permanently in a positive or negative way. The building quick view also includes industry types and additional improvements in order to help players craft their strategy for industry dominance, and new ornaments are available for the metropolis.

On July 20, the Anno 2205 Orbit DLC will allow players to build their own modular space station, which offers a brand new science and research system to upgrade different areas in their corporations. Anno 2205 Orbit DLC is part of the Anno 2205 Season Pass but will also be available as a standalone purchase.

Anno 2205 is in development at Blue Byte, a Ubisoft studio, and is available now.

Deep Silver Announce Agents of Mayhem® from Volition,  the Creators of Saints Row

 Discover an amazing new comic hero universe bursting with unforgettable characters

as the Agents of M.A.Y.H.E.M. do battle against the sinister forces of L.E.G.I.O.N. in a brand-new open-world extravaganza

Larkspur, Calif. – June 6, 2016 – Volition are back with a brand new game in their latest open-world epic – Agents of Mayhem® coming to Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and PC in 2017.

The developers of the highly acclaimed and hugely successful Saints Row series have taken it to the next level with the creation of a new comic hero universe.

Meet the Agents of M.A.Y.H.E.M. (the Multinational Agency for Hunting Evil Masterminds) – a motley outfit of unique and diverse Super Agents recruited from around the world to thwart the destructive schemes of the evil supervillain organization L.E.G.I.O.N. (the League of Evil Gentlemen Intent on Obliterating Nations).

Featuring an original storyline, trademark over-the-top open-world gameplay, and the look-and-feel of a distinctive superhero cosmos, Agents of Mayhem is pure Volition. The title exists as a part of the Saints Row universe, sharing certain story elements, symbolism, and design inspiration with the multi-million selling franchise. Building on the skill of the AAA studio to continuously surprise, endear, and engage players, Agents of Mayhem represents the culmination of over a decade of open world experience and creativity.

In a simultaneous global assault, LEGION has taken control over the nations of the world and the only force left to stop them is MAYHEM. Led by the mysterious and no-nonsense Persephone Brimstone, MAYHEM’s elite Super Agents are called to the city of Seoul, South Korea. Led by LEGION Minister Doctor Babylon and his diabolical lieutenants, a nefarious plot is set in motion to build a world-altering device that will grant unrivaled power to the supervillain organization. In order to stop LEGION and take back the world, the Agents of Mayhem will traverse a sprawling urban battlefield from the ground to the rooftops and team up as a super-agent collective to stop LEGION at any cost.

Success is far from guaranteed and collateral damage will be substantial, but it’s all in a day’s work for the Agents…

Champ Man 16 predicts Spain will win this year’s European Championships

·        100,000 game engine simulations tip a Spain v Germany final
·        Run-throughs suggest England are likely to exit in the Quarter-Finals
·        Dele Alli also predicted to be the most-likely England star to see red

The team behind Champ Man 16, the hugely-successful mobile football management sim, are tipping Spain to win this summer’s European Championships after using the game’s sophisticated engine to run 100,000 simulations of the tournament.

It predicted the most probable final will be between Vincente del Bosque’s Spain and Joachim Löw’s Germany, with current holders Spain the most likely victors. They retained their crown 30% of the time while Germany only managed to win 20% of the time. Italy were next likely on 14%, then France on 11% with England’s likelihood seeing just 7% of trophy-lifting wins from the simulations.

The game engine predicted a one in 10 chance of England being runners-up with their most likely finish being in the quarter-finals yet again, bowing out at that stage 30% of the time.

Surprisingly, Belgium, despite a strong squad, look set to struggle with just a 15% chance to reach the semi-finals. But with Leicester teaching us that football dreams can happen, Turkey came ahead of both Croatia and Russia for an outside chance of winning the tournament, proving victorious in 2% of the 100,000 trials.

In terms of goalscorers, it looks to be Ronaldo’s tournament with the Portuguese number 7 topping the chart in more than 30,000 simulations. He will have some tough competition though from both Thomas Müller and Zlatan Ibrahimovic. England’s own Harry Kane’s hot streak looks set to continue – he topped the goals list 8% of the time (the fourth highest player) but Gareth Bale looks unlikely to challenge with just 3% of simulations finishing with the Welsh attacker at No1.

Looking at red cards, Romania may be playing with 10-men a lot with Steliano Filip and Gabriel Torje keeping the first two places on the naughty step warm – followed by Zlatko Junuzovic, of Austria, and Oleg Gusiev and Serhiy Rybalka of Ukraine. Surprisingly, mild man of English football, James Milner, scrapes into the top 10 list of sendings off although Dele Alli is the most-likely England star to see red.

Confident in the strength of the game engine and its predictions for this year’s European Championships, the Champ Man team have placed a £1000 charity bet on Spain to triumph at odds of 11/2. As they love an outsider in the Champ Man office, the team has also put its money where its mouth is with a cheeky £50 flutter on Turkey at 80/1. Any winnings will then be donated to GamesAid, a charity that helps disadvantaged or disabled children and young people – www.gamesaid.org .

The Champ Man team have placed their bet with Paddy Power, the leaders in football betting, who have committed to matching any winnings with a donation to their charity of choice, Special Olympics UK.

Des O’Connor, producer for the Champ Man franchise, says: “The Champ Man team is excited about the summer of football ahead and we’ll all be watching the matches to see how accurate our game engine is. Even if we’re not right about everything, we’re confident it’s going to be one of the most exciting tournaments in years with so many talented players and teams in France.

“We’re also very grateful to Paddy Power for kindly offering to match our selections even though we think our prediction tool is giving us the upper hand!”

Paddy Power himself said: “As huge fans of the series, we’re delighted to have worked with Championship Manager ahead of the tournament. With a huge bank of data and a sophisticated game engine, the Champ Man team’s predictions carry serious weight and should they hit the mark, some very worthy charities will reap the benefit.”
