LOS ANGELES – Apr. 7, 2025 – The International Game Developers Association Foundation (IGDA-F) welcomes Shannon Loftis as the new chair of its board of directors following the departure of Ed Fries, who is stepping down after a successful 2 years leading the organization and will remain on the board. With more than 30 years of experience in game development at Microsoft and beyond, alongside her commitment to inclusion in the gaming and technology spaces, Shannon will be an invaluable addition to the IGDA Foundation’s mission.

After graduating with computer science and mathematics degrees from Duke University, Loftis joined Microsoft’s Games group in 1995, where she contributed to over 70 games across PC, Xbox, and Xbox 360. Some of her contributions include early online card games, the Madness series (Motocross Madness, Monster Truck Madness, and Midtown Madness), Project Gotham Racing, the Fable series, the Viva Piñata series, and Banjo Kazooie: Nuts and Bolts.

Transitioning to leadership roles at Microsoft, Loftis managed teams worldwide that were responsible for many of Microsoft’s recent successes. She built the Good Science studio, which laid the groundwork and shipped the Kinect system and many of its titles. She later guided Microsoft’s First Party Global Publishing team, which delivered bestselling titles like ReCore, Ori, Microsoft Casual Suite, and Flight Simulator. Before retiring from Microsoft, she founded World’s Edge, which is dedicated to the award-winning Age of Empires series. Since leaving Microsoft, Shannon has remained active in the industry as a board member, advisor, consultant, and mentor.

Loftis’ long-standing commitment to inclusion and connection stems from her experiences as the youngest in a large, close family. She is fascinated by and passionate about the ways technology and entertainment can build community, which has driven her career with a passion to forge connections.

“I’m thrilled and honored to lead this board, and to work closely with the foundation and with the IGDA,” said Shannon Loftis, Chair of the IGDA-F Board of Directors. “The IGDA Foundation is one of the most inclusive, intersectional, globally-relevant and effective organizations in game development and I believe our mission is more crucial today than ever before.”

She has served on the IGDA Foundation and AIAS’ board of directors, and co-founded the Microsoft’s Women in Gaming SIG with Bonnie Ross and Laura Fryer, which is still active today as part of Games 4 Everyone (G4E).

“I have worked alongside Shannon since our days at Microsoft; she’s an excellent leader whose background and experience in the industry make her a perfect fit to take on the role of Chair,” said Ed Fries, former Chair of the IGDA-F Board of Directors. “I am confident that the IGDA Foundation will stay true to its values under her guidance.”

With the campaign ending soon on April 8th, the studio invites new and returning players to experience the latest demo update that is now available on Steam.

24 Hours Remain on Kickstarter!

The time is counting down on the DeathTower Kickstarter campaign!

A Tactical Roguelite for All 

In this 2.5D isometric roguelite tactical RPG, join Ikarus, a humble machine operator, on his journey to uncover the mysteries behind the Megaryon—a never-ending megastructure tower plagued by a deadly parasite outbreak. As you climb the tower, combine stealthy infiltration and an arsenal of devastating weapons to reach your objective. A combative approach uses weapons, grenades, and ammunition to clear floors, while stealthy players can use environmental structures and resources to avoid notice. Four diverse biomes compose this tower, with numerous floors scattered throughout. Fight through each floor’s threats, use hacks in the tower’s programming to amplify your abilities and summon assists, rewind your movements in case of a fumble, or fall in battle and restart your run from the beginning. 

New Demo, New Allies

In the demo update, players will unlock the new Erebus Game Hub after completing the tutorial, which features pixel-art venues and a fresh cast of characters, ready to share helpful hints. Within the Hub, players can visit the Starter Shop for items and weapons, or crimp upgrades to power themselves up between runs. Highly customizable, the demo showcases over fifty different weapons, thirteen unique tower hacks, and two fluid class trees, less than half of the total options planned for the full game. Headbang Club is excited for everyone to experience the world of possibilities in DeathTower and encourages curious players to give the demo a try! Experience the first hour of DeathTower’s opening act, explore the initial few floors, and try out a fraction of what’s to come in the demo’s first epic boss battle.

Full-Game Features:

• 6 playable characters are waiting to be unlocked as you ascend the tower and explore the game’s different biomes.
• 30 enemy types boast unique characteristics depending on their environment and class type.
• 10 mini bosses necessitate skill expansions and combat expertise to defeat and climb to the next level.
• 120 unlockable weapons, ranging from grenades to laser guns, let each player hone their perfect kit.
• 75 hacks in the megastructure’s operations system can be programmed to attack, defend, manipulate the battlefield and summon terrifying creatures.
• 10 fluid class trees, comprising a total of 75 skills, can be combined to create a well-rounded party.

Don’t miss out on this chance to back the DeathTower Kickstarter  and help reach the stretch goal. The game’s demo is available for download on Steam, and learn more about Headbang Club via the studio’s website.

Eager Fans Can Get a Taste of La Quimera’s High-Tech Exosuit Combat in the New Gameplay Trailer

KYIV, Ukraine – April 7, 2025 – Game developer Reburn is excited to announce that La Quimera, its narrative-driven first-person-shooter game set in a futuristic Latin American megalopolis, will release on April 25 on PC via Steam. La Quimera will be priced at MSRP $29.99/€29.99. To prepare for the launch, Reburn is hosting a closed beta for 24 hours starting April 12 at 7am PT / 3pm BST / 4pm CEST. Fans can request closed beta access on La Quimera’s Steam page, though slots are limited. Participants will be able to access a part of a pivotal mid-game mission in solo or co-op play.

“Our Reburn team can’t wait to finally share our hard work and vision for La Quimera with players on April 25,” said Dmytro Lymar, CEO and co-founder of Reburn. “Ahead of our release, we invite players to join us in our closed beta to get an early look at the co-op experience for our vision of Nuevo Caracas and far beyond.”

In addition, eager FPS fans can get an extended look at La Quimera’s unique blend of sci-fi worldbuilding, Latin American mysticism, and tense shooter combat in the first gameplay trailer. The gameplay trailer pulls back the curtain on La Quimera’s intriguing blend of exosuit abilities, futuristic weaponry, and robotic enemies standing between the PMC and its objectives. Render enemies vulnerable with a multitarget electric shock, scan for hidden threats, dodge certain death with the exosuit’s agility, and more. Even better, La Quimera players can suit up with two additional friends throughout each mission for co-op action, coordinating combat tactics and experiencing the city and jungles of Nuevo Caracas together.

La Quimera is Reburn’s first original video game IP. The world and narrative of La Quimera is written and created by Nicolas Winding Refn (Drive, The Neon Demon) and E.J.A. Warren. Set in and around the fictional Latin American mega-city of Nuevo Caracas, the game tells the story of a down-on-their-luck PMC group caught up in a vast conflict between rival factions and shadowy corporations, as mystical events increasingly blur the line between reality and illusion. Exosuits provided by one such benefactor allow players to engage in intense combat, utilizing high-tech gadgetry and superhuman strength to outwit their enemies.

Reburn’s roster of developers includes lead gameplay designers, artists, sound engineers, programmers, and more from across the entire Metro series. Metro 2033, Last Light, and Exodus gameplay and AI designer Oleksandr Kostiuk serves as project lead on La Quimera. CEO and founder Dmytro Lymar has worked in games since 2006, and previously served as director and CEO of 4A Games Ukraine, which operated as a separately owned entity distinct from other 4A Games studios.

“As a development studio operating out of Ukraine, the last several years have been extremely challenging in terms of bringing any artistic creation to life while contending with the realities of war and dramatic shifts in the games industry,” further stated Lymar. ”Through it all, we stayed focused on what we love: Creating immersive, story-driven experiences. Our work wouldn’t be possible without the bravery and sacrifice of those defending Ukraine, and we’re profoundly grateful for their strength and resilience. We’re also truly thankful to everyone who supported and believed in us along the way.”

About Reburn:

Reburn is an independently-owned video game development studio led by CEO Dmytro Lymar. Reburn was formerly known as 4A Games Ukraine, one of multiple studios working on the Metro video game series. Reburn comprises more than 110 developers, featuring many designers, artists, animators, programmers, QA, and more from across the Metro game franchise. La Quimera is the studio’s first unique IP. The studio is based primarily in Kyiv, Ukraine, but utilizes a number of people working remotely around the globe.

Cruisers under construction and brand-new badges in World of Warships
Headlining April’s update for players on PC is a new Dockyard, with two ships up for grabs. Waiting at the end of 20 construction phases is German Tier IX Premium heavy cruiser Blücher. This ship boasts highly accurate shots and armored piercing shells that come equipped with increased penetration, improved ricochet angles, and flat ballistics. After progressing through the first eight Dockyard phases, players will also unlock Tier VII Commonwealth light cruiser Gambia, equipped with high explosive shells and Short Burst Smoke Generator to help take down enemy ships.

Players confident in their naval combat strategy can now showcase their skills through the addition of Efficiency Badges, which can be earned by completing Random Battles. After each clash, the base experience points of a player’s performance will be compared against the recent average performance of players from around the world, rewarding them with one of four tiered Efficiency Badges to display on the ships in their profile summary. As players improve their standing, climbing from 3rd Grade to Expert, ships will only display its highest-ranking badge.

Finally, a temporary battle type is sailing into World of Warships with Unbreakable Line, which welcomes a respawning feature. Running until 15 May, Tier VIII-IX battleships, cruisers, and destroyers can dive into action-packed 7 vs. 7 skirmishes. In a race to achieve 1,000 points, teams will need to win capture points and sink enemy vessels. But sinking these ships isn’t enough, as they’ll instantly respawn with reloaded weapons to jump back into battle. 

World of Warships Legends shells out turtle mayhem and a new game mode

As part of April’s update, the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles are surfing into World of Warships: Legends. Players can sail into battle sporting their most beloved dude, with themed Commander guises and new skins. To celebrate the crossover, players hungry for new cosmetics can also pick up limited-time Pizza Time crates. With two available for free, one can be earned by conquering the new Turtle Power! Mission, and another by battling through the Dragon’s Voyage campaign during the update.

April is also bringing fresh ways to play with War Tales, a brand-new PvE game mode that sees teams of three to five players working together to accomplish specific objectives using ships from Tier III ships upward. Three War Tales will be available to begin with, each with its own unique mission, such as securing a control point or escorting an allied ship. To emerge victorious, communication and solid strategies across teams will be vital.

For players seeking new vessels to lay down destruction with, the Hindenburg Marathon rounds out the April update, offering German Legendary Tier cruiser Hindenburg as the main reward. Spanning across three updates, players will have to work hard to accumulate a special currency known as Ship Parts.

GORN 2 is the skull-crushing sequel to VR smash hit GORN. New developers Cortopia, working alongside original series creators Free Lives, are stepping into the arena to take on virtual reality’s most outrageous gladiator sim.

In GORN 2 you will ascend to a heavenly realm where the souls of all the gladiators you slaughtered in the first game now dwell—and kill them again. Expect new weapons, new arenas, new traps, new enemies, and new bosses as you raise Hell in the heavens and prove your battle prowess before an army of terrifying foes.

This brutally slapstick brawler will be making its way to Meta Quest, SteamVR, and PSVR2 later this year, with in-your-face combat so irresponsibly violent you’ll check your headset for blood spatters when the fight is over.

Key features

• Engage in fierce gladiatorial battles powered by an outrageous fully physics-driven combat engine, savagely striking down foes with a bountiful collection of 35 devastating, uniquely violent weapons–including many monstrous new additions to your gladiator’s arsenal
• Journey through a series of heavenly realms populated by the fallen heroes of the original game. Here you’ll battle the five sons’ champions: powerful bosses primed to unleash fresh challenges upon even the most seasoned, blood-flecked arena veteran
• GORN 2 is everything GORN was but MORE. More weapons, more enemies, more arenas, more traps, more power-ups, and more hilariously over-the-top combat. If you loved the first game, but still feel a raging yearning for more, GORN 2 will sate your blood-thirst
• Conquered all five heavenly arenas? Then stand your ground in the relentless non-stop onslaught of Endless Mode, or try creating your own battlefields of destruction in Custom Mode. Get creative and crush your opponents any way you choose, no matter how outlandish

GORN 2 will launch later this year on Meta Quest, SteamVR, and PSVR2.
