Child-of-Light-Deluxe-Edition

Ubisoft came out with a huge amount of content today regarding their 2D turn-based J-RPG/Adventure title Child of Light, including details on a deluxe edition for retailers, a new co-op trailer and a release date. Included in the Deluxe Edition will be a poster designed by Japanese artist Yoshitaka Amano, a 24 page art book with unrevealed artwork and an Igniculus key ring. This boxed edition will also include additional in-game content, with a bonus quest, a new character and a pack of collectibles. You can check out all these neat goodies in the above image (click the image for the full size version). Unfortunately, this Deluxe Edition will only be available for PS3, PS4, and Windows PC editions of the game and only in the UK and EMEA (Europe, Middle East, Africa) regions. In better news for fans of Sony’s consoles, the game will be cross buy, so if you buy it on PS3 you have access to it on PS4 at no extra charge and vice versa. The Deluxe Edition is available to pre-order now.

Child of Light uses UbiArt Framework engine to allow artists to insert unedited concept work into the game to truly bring their original artistic views to life. As you can see from the trailer below, the game looks beautiful and just like a watercolour painting. The game centers around the theme of fairy tales as players step into the shoes of Aurora and explore the magical painted world of Lemuria together with her firefly sidekick Igniculus and other unlikely allies. Players can explore the magical kingdom to uncover mysteries and take back the sun, moon and stars which are being held captive by the evil Queen of the Night.

The Forces of Chaos Descend on Tower Defense Games in Game Insight¹s Battle Towers for iOS

Epic battles between order vs. chaos come to tower defense games in Battle Towers for iOS


Moscow and San Francisco ­ March 05, 2014 ­
Game Insight, a global leader in mobile/social games, announces the launch of a chaotic new chapter in tower defense games for iOS: Battle Towers. The game was previously released for Android devices and has already garnered more than 2 million players worldwide.

Battle Towers pits the two distinct nations of Order and Chaos against each other in an eternal conflict. While the two factions once lived together in peace, they have found their differences impossible to reconcile. The Order faction¹s intentions seem noble, but its actions are often reckless, while the Chaos faction seems wild and unruly, but its subjects are eager to organize themselves for battle. Each faction has its own unique units, buildings, and magic spells. Neither will rest until the other is destroyed!

In Battle Towers, players construct important buildings, such as resource-producing houses and defensive towers, while also recruiting armies of warriors to march into battle to annihilate the enemy. Players can also make use of mighty magic spells to strengthen their units and increase their chances of victory, but must plan their attacks wisely in accordance with the game¹s day-night cycle, which favors Order during the day, but favors Chaos at night. Players may also challenge each other in cross-platform player-versus-player (PvP) battles.

Defeat your enemies and conquer their lands! Download Battle Towers for iOS and become a legend in the next generation of tower defense games!

Tecmo Koei launches evil mini quiz and details pre-order bonuses for Deception IV: Blood Ties

WHAT’S YOUR STYLE OF EVIL?

Tecmo Koei launches evil mini quiz and details pre-order bonuses for Deception IV: Blood Ties 

Hertfordshire, 05 March 2014- Tecmo Koei Europe announced today pre-order bonuses and new assets for upcoming title Deception IV: Blood Ties slated to be released across Europe on 28th March 2014 for the PlayStation®3 computer entertainment system and the PlayStation®Vita handheld system.

This entertaining follow up to the classic Tecmo title ‘Devil’s Deception’, first released in 1996 on the PlayStation®, is a strategy focused trap action game that follows the story of Laegrinna, an animated fragment of an imprisoned Devil’s soul, as she battles her enemies by mischievously luring them into strategically placed traps.

Deception IV places the player on the side of evil, which, as the saying goes, comes in many forms… In Laegrinna’s case it comes in the form of the three Daemons who assist her in her quest: Veruza, Caelea and Lilia. Each of them represents a different aspect of cruelty: Sadistic Torment, Elaborate Death and Humiliating Demise, and they reward points and upgrades every time Laegrinna chooses to use one of their traps to escape her rivals.

There are more than 120 different types of traps – including themed traps for each stage and enchanted moving trapmobiles – in Deception IV: Blood Ties and players can use a vast number of combinations to defeat those who try to harm them. Based on the result the three Daemons will judge and reward points for the best combo.

For a better idea of the variety of combos and traps included in Deception IV: Blood Ties, Tecmo Koei launched today an sinfully indulging, interactive mini quiz that serves to determine each player’s individual style of evil! There, they can choose between spring boards, Iron Maidens, falling vases and more, watch them in action and discover which Daemon favours their choices as well as get information on their lucky trap based on their options.

The Evil Style Quiz can be accessed through www.deceptioniv.eu/special.html.

Furthermore, Tecmo Koei announced a series of bonus traps for those who pre-order the title. Specifically, those who pre-order from GAME will receive a ‘Guillotine Lite’, a Sadistic trap in the form of an axe falling from the ceiling. For those who opt for the Elaborate, pre-orders from Amazon will include a ‘UFO?’ trap, guaranteed to blow your enemy out of this world… or into the nearest wall. For fans of the Humiliating, the PlayStation® Store will offer a trap called ‘Queen’s Heel’, a giant heel that drops from the air to squash your opponents. Finally, Independent retailers (through CentreSoft) will receive a series favourite ‘Golden Horse’ trap, which humiliatingly strikes right at your poor rival’s nether parts..

——————————

Deception IV: Blood Ties is produced by the creator of Fatal Frame, Keisuke Kikuchi and developed by Tecmo Koei. The franchise as a whole has sold more than 800,000 copies globally.

League of Angels opens 100th server

League-of-Angels-Artwork-01

The hybrid turn-based fantasy MMORPG/strategy game by Reality Squared Games (R2Games), League of Angels, is celebrating the launch of its 100th server. The game was released on January 10th of this year and has experienced a large influx of players. Over 1 million registers were recorded before the end of the first month. To celebrate with its players, R2Games has decided to hold special in-game events to reward players who join the new server. Alongside these events, new features are also being released this week. These features include: “Mount Bless, Hero Bless, Guild Boss, and Raiders”. What exactly any of that actually entails is yet to be seen with the new add-ons to be implemented as quick as possible; starting with servers 1 and 2.

I, for one, hope that R2Games celebrates this milestone by further engaging the services of celebrity cosplayers in creating promotional material. They’ve done it before and I believe that such an initiative is a good way to engage with the gaming community. We have also previously covered the launch of the game here and its good to see R2Games meet with success in their new title. The game itself can be accessed here.

Optimus vs Grimlock in New Transformers: Age of Extinction Teaser

Transformers-Age-of-Extinction-Character-Poster-Tessa-01It feels like we only just stopped talking about Paramount Pictures‘ Transformers: Age of Extinction Super Bowl spot, and now we have another trailer!

Of note, this new teaser trailer – which can be viewed embedded at the bottom of this article – gives us a look at just how Optimus Prime is reintroduced in the film, along with a sneak peek at a big-time battle between the leader of the Autobots and… Grimlock?!

Yes, it seems that our favorite mack truck and the Dinobot general are not exactly seeing eye to eye, just like in the cartoons. Although they eventually band together, there was always a struggle for leadership, mostly due to the ego and pride of Grimlock. Seems Optimus has to smack some sense into him… before convincing Grimlock to allow him to ride him like a horse!

No wonder they have issues. Anyway, check it out below, and also note the new character posters for Tessa (Nicola Peltz) on the right (click to enlarge) and Optimus Prime below. Transformers: Age of Extinction comes out nationwide on June 26.
