TOKYO — July 24, 2025 — The Great Villainess: Strategy of Lily, the crowd-controlling turn-based strategy game produced by Alliance Arts, rallies the masses for revolution with today’s launch on PC via Steam with a special launch 10% week discount until Thursday, July 31st.

Wrongly accused of the Emperor’s murder, Duchess Scarlet flees the Imperial Capital and joins forces with Lily, a time-travelling, premier strategist. Together, the two hatch a plan to incite a rebellion and clear Scarlet’s name. Their weapon of choice? An airship with cutting-edge streaming technology.

Take to the battlefield with the power of propaganda on Scarlet’s side. Spread rumors of incoming attacks to distract enemy battalions, then interfere with their supply lines to weaken their firepower. Freeze their advancements with a Stalling Stream, or cut off their supplies with an Interception Stream.

Once their defenses are lowered, it’s time to act—convince entire squadrons to concede with a Surrender Stream, or swiftly strike vulnerable posts with a Hustle Stream. Capitalize on Lily’s cunning personality with a Capture Stream to convert enemy generals to Scarlet’s cause, or slaughter with no remorse in a take-no-prisoners approach. 

Each defected general brings new expertise and abilities to the war effort, while each slain general increases combat power at the cost of shifting Lily and Scarlet’s personality over time. Nurture bonds between ally units, increasing their strength and unlocking special tag-team skills after successive team battles. 

A proper strategist is always a few steps ahead. Carve out a path to victory where brains beat brawn through ambush tactics, long-term sieges, or full-scale attacks at strategic locations. Be on guard against surprise attacks and Imperial reinforcements, and sacrifice less important outposts to focus units on powerful enemy outposts.

Will the Rebellion topple the oppressive Empire, or become the new oppressor regime? Strike a balance between mercy and massacre along a branching narrative where every kill of a high-ranking official paints a less noble picture of the rebellion, leading Scarlet to become the very thing she’s been accused of being — a murderer. 

The Great Villainess: Strategy of Lily is available today on PC via Steam with language options in English, Japanese, Chinese (Simplified and Traditional), and Korean. For more information, visit the Alliance Arts official website and follow Alliance Arts on Twitter and YouTube.

Next playtest of the upcoming MMORPG from the creators of Tibia // Sign-ups still open // System with more freedom in character development 

Regensburg/Germany, July 24, 2025 | The zombie MMORPG Persist Online, announced by CipSoft last year, is getting a new skill system. Starting with the next playtest, this will give players even more options for developing characters according to their own preferences. As before, points are earned by performing actions belonging to one of the game’s 25 skill trees, such as firing a shotgun or cutting down a tree. However, players can now invest these points much more freely into various passive and active skills.

Once an active skill has been unlocked, it can be improved further by enhancing its effect or reducing its cooldown, for example. Using badges gradually increases the maximum level of a skill tree. Once 11 points have been spent, players can choose one of two specialisations for the skill. As before, a particularly powerful “ultimate skill” awaits at the end.

“This skill system rework gives players more freedom, clearer progression, and meaningful choices,” reads a blog post published on the MMORPG’s website today. Alongside further details and numerous examples, the 14-member team has revealed initial information about weapon adjustments that have become necessary due to the new skill system. For instance, all machine guns now penetrate up to three enemies by default.

All the new features can be tried out at the next playtest in August. Simply register with an email address at www.persist.online for the chance to participate.

You can already add the MMORPG to your Steam wishlist. As of today, Persist Online is also part of “Games Forged in Germany”. This week-long event on Steam showcases the variety of German games, and Persist Online will soon be featuring a new variety of characters.

About Persist Online

Persist Online is the new game from genre pioneers CipSoft, who released Tibia in 1997, one of the first MMORPGs ever. Instead of casting spells on orcs, players must fight zombies with firearms and melee weapons. Still, at its core, Persist Online is an old-school MMORPG, with hundreds of players sharing the same server and enjoying the greatest possible freedom. The game is the brainchild of two long-time CipSoft employees and began as a hobby project. Currently, a 14-member core team with the mentality of an indie studio is working towards an Early Access release on Steam. 

About CipSoft

CipSoft GmbH was founded in Regensburg in June 2001 and emerged from the success of Tibia. As one of the oldest German game developers, the independent company today generates annual revenues of over 20 million euros and employs more than 100 people. With TibiaME, a mobile adaptation inspired by Tibia, CipSoft released one of the first online role-playing games for mobile phones in 2003. In April 2025, the Bavarian studio took over the browser game The Settlers Online from Ubisoft Blue Byte. Since this year, CipSoft has made Tibia’s payment system available to other game developers under the name MultiPayer.

Neolithic LLC is hyper-focused on improving the survival title! 

London, UK, 24th July 2025 – After an Early Access launch on Meta Quest in July, survival adventure Neolithic Dawn continues to go from strength to strength. The team at Neolithic LLC has been hard at work improving the highly anticipated VR experience, taking on board player feedback to roll out a myriad of quality-of-life updates.

As an Early Access game that’s continually being enhanced and refined, the team has released three major patches for Neolithic Dawn since launch. Targeting a range of gameplay features and mechanics, community suggestions have led to a number of fixes. These include taming animals in co-op, improving spear and stabbing physics, fixing graphical glitches and skill tree balancing. 

“The team has been pushing out weekly updates to fix bugs that may have affected your first experience, as we continue shaping Neolithic Dawn into a survival game the community can be proud to have supported from the beginning!” said James Bellian, CEO & Founder of Neolithic. “The feedback we’ve received on Neolithic Dawn in these first few weeks has been invaluable. We want to thank everyone playing in Early Access for their trust in the team – and for all the reviews, bug reports, and ideas for future updates!”

Major Bug Fixes (Patches 1-3):

• [Fixed] Unable to tame animals in co-op
• [Fixed] Multiple bugs that may have caused save file corruption or loss of backpack
• [Fixed] Items getting lost or clipping through the floor are
• [Fixed] Graphics issues in multiple maps that led to invisible colliders, holes, missing meshes, or missing materials
• [Fixed] Waterfall audio in the Bruce Peninsula map
• [Fixed] Items clipping through the map
• Improvements to backpack fixing bugs that made it impossible/difficult to remove items, especially in multiplayer
• Improved spear and stabbing physics to prevent weapons from getting stuck in animals or pulled from your hands
• Improved Physics 
• Improved the lighting in the first dungeon
• Made butchering easier—stabbing the animal now also works for skinning and butchering
• Balanced stat draining so players aren’t starving, thirsty, or passing out every 10 seconds
• Balanced skill tree boosts to have better improvements and fewer debuffs
• Hip holsters’ position adjusted and now stay in place when looking down to be more comfortable to use

Set across five open-world maps in North America, players are whisked back to a time when they can discover prehistoric creatures and ancient Ice Age civilisations. Neolithic Dawn is a true survival game where factors including hunger, thirst and warmth all have to be accounted for. To maintain that sense of realism throughout, players will have to handcraft weapons and tools, hunt animals, and prepare for the ever-changing seasons.

Neolithic Dawn is available now as an Early Access release on the Horizon Store for Meta Quest. A Steam edition is in development with a launch date coming soon. Neolithic LLC has an expansive roadmap planned during Early Access for Meta Quest in 2025, with further details to be announced.
