Halo: Spartan Assault Coming to Xbox 360 and Xbox One

After releasing for PC and Windows 8 phones, Halo: Spartan Assault will be making the transition to consoles later this year for both the Xbox 360 and Xbox One. Adding in new content along with the Operation Hydra expansion previously released to the original version, console players will not only get the chance to experience the story of Sarah Palmer’s rise to the top of the Spartan IV’s, but join in with a friend.

Halo: Spartan Assault will be adding in a new co-op feature exclusively for the console version of the game, though unfortunately there will not be any cross-platform play between 360 and One. The co-op mode isn’t the only console exclusive however, as it will also include the first ever encounter with the Flood in Spartan Assault, along with a host of new weapons, armor abilities, and upgrades.

Halo: Spartan Assault is set to release for both the Xbox 360 and the Xbox One in December 2014.

Infinite Crisis Holding Closed Beta Cup

October 30, 2013

Warner Bros. and Turbine are looking to spice up its closed beta process for Infinite Crisis with a Closed Beta Cup in association with the Electronic Sports League (ESL). This closed beta cup will be taking place over the course of three months beginning on November 10th, with weekly events ending every Sunday where the eight best teams will receive points and the top team winning €200. At the end of each month, the eight team with the most points will compete to decide the top two teams who will be splitting a prize of €500.

While the MOBA isn’t set to release unto 2014, this seems like a pretty good way for Infinite Crisis to do a good amount of stress and balance testing, especially with the prize money on the line. Those looking to join in on the Infinite Crisis Closed Beta Cup can check out the ESL website to sign up.

Slender: The Arrival and Blood of the Werewolf Out Now

Majesco has just announced that they have released two new games from their indie label, Midnight City, onto Steam. The first of which is the only official Slender Man to be released with Slender: The Arrival. Coming from Blue Isle Studios, The Arrival pits players in a dark twisted world trying to discover whatever they can about Slender Man, as well as others that have already met their fate to him. Those wanting an even more immersive experience can find it thanks to Oculus Rift compatibility. Slender: The Arrival is out now on Steam, currently discounted 20% until November 4th.

The second game from the Midnight City label takes a every different approach, while still being about monsters with Blood of the Werewolf. Players will take on the role of Selena one of the last werewolves to find revenge after her husband was killed and son taken in this platformer from Scientifically Proven. With plenty of weapons to use and upgrade, collectibles to find, and talismans to increase her power, players will have more than enough to do while trying to save Selena’s son. Blood of the Werewolf is out now on PC from Steam, currently discounted 20% until November 4th.
