New STALCRAFT: X Game Mode Revealed in New Trailer Showcased at The Game Awards

Get ready for the new ‘Operations’ PvE mode coming in 2025. 

Indie developer EXBO has revealed the action-packed new game mode for their large-scale MMOFPS STALCRAFT: X in a thrilling new teaser trailer during Thursday’s The Game Awards.

‘Operations’ is a new PvE game mode where teams of three players will venture into the mysterious corners of the Chernobyl Exclusion Zone in a dungeon-crawling format with various objectives, interesting opponents, complicating modifiers, and mini-bosses.

This will be the game’s first concentrated PvE content, and the developers plan to release it in several stages throughout the year. This is the long-awaited STALCRAFT: X update fans have been waiting for, as currently, most in-game activities are related to PvP modes. 

In other news, the EXBO team is launching a major winter event today. During this event, the entire Chernobyl Exclusion Zone will be covered with snow, and thematic activities will take place.

About STALCRAFT: X

Players will spend their time in the open world of the Chernobyl Exclusion Zone. Locations are filled with many kinds of PvP and PvE activities, beloved by fans of Stalker, such as searching for artifacts, mutant hunting, exploration of uncharted locations, doing quests, creating laboratories and participating in faction wars. For those who have less time to play, there are various session modes to experience.

A living open world

The open world of STALCRAFT: X is truly alive, and players create unique situations for each other, forging loyal friendships and relentless enemies along the way. While exploring the game world’s many locations, other factions’ players may shoot you, but you won’t lose all your gear and progress; instead, you’ll only leave part of the resources you’ve collected during that trip. This ensures you retain the thrill of each raid, while setbacks are not overly fatal.

A unigue combination of FPS and RPG

The balance of weapons is not typical for open-world MMOs, and rather resembles session shooters like Counter Strike and Call of Duty. We define the shooter component as fast-paced, tied primarily to reaction and shooting skills. At the same time, you will remain motivated to progress further on as, over the years, the developers have managed to achieve a unique combination of FPS and RPG mechanics.

Progression and open world economy

Don’t let the MMO genre scare you away — there is no levelling mechanic, and you progress through the game by obtaining new equipment. You can aquire it in many ways, including buying it from other players — because STALCRAFT: X has an open economy. You can become a legendary merchant without leaving the base! And by the way, there are no game wipes.

The distribution model

STALCRAFT: X is distributed for free, and there is no catch here — monetization is organized according to the P4T (Pay for time) as well as cosmetics model.

Any items can be obtained through playing the game, however, the soft monetization method allows you to speed up some areas of character levelling.

STALCRAFT: X is available to play for free now via Steam and the EXBO launcher

About EXBO

The history of the company began in 2014, when a small team of modmakers launched its first servers, transforming the fan-inspired idea of an online S.T.A.L.K.E.R. game based on Minecraft. By 2024, STALCRAFT: X has become the most popular online shooter in the post-apocalyptic Chernobyl setting, unique in its blend of MMOFPS features with an open world and economy.

2D-Survival Horror Dead of Darkness launches for PC on 23rd January 

Release date trailer takes you to the dark heart of Velvet Island; key requests now open for media and creators

Osterholz, Germany – 16th December 2024 – Solo developer, Retrofiction Games is today thrilled to announce that its upcoming 2D survival-horror title Dead of Darkness will be launching for PC via Steam on 23rd January. The date was first revealed during The Horror Game Awards on Saturday, in which a brand new trailer for the game was premiered.

Set in England in 1985, Dead of Darkness is a 2D survival-horror action-adventure with cosmic horror influences. It features an expertly crafted narrative, rich and foreboding atmosphere, deep lore and devious puzzles. Players will step into the well-worn boots of private investigator Miles Windham, who, following the tragic passing of his daughter, heads to the mysterious Velvet Island to investigate a lead on her death.

Shortly after arriving, Miles discovers the residents to be increasingly hostile, and soon finds himself in a desperate struggle for his own survival. Only by facing grotesque creatures, surmounting deadly traps and managing his sanity, does he have a hope of unraveling the disturbing secret that lies at the dark heart of the island.

Narrative is the core of the Dead of Darkness experience, and as such is equally inspired by classic tales of terror, contemporary weird fiction and the survival horror classics of yesteryear. It effortlessly brings these influences together and plays with genre tropes to create a fresh and surprising gameplay experience.

Rendered with pixel-perfect, sprite-based two-dimensional art, the game’s dark story and locales are further brought to life with eye catching – and often unsettling – high-definition illustrations, atmospheric lighting and sound; all is which is backed-up by professional voice acting from a talented international cast including Bradley Gareth (My Time at Portia), Abigail Turner (Remothered: Broken Porcelain) and Paul Moran (Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader).

Dead of Darkness Features

  • Complex, multi-layered narrative. Meet more than 15 memorable characters over the course of the game – each with their own story that revolves around the terrible secrets of Velvet Island.
  • Challenging survival-horror. Resources are scarce, your inventory is limited, and danger lurks around every corner. Plan your routes carefully if you want to survive.
  • Intense hallucinations. Each enemy encounter takes a toll on your mental state. The lower your mental state, the stronger the hallucinations you will experience – some will even blur the distinction between reality and fiction.
  • Relentless enemies. 13 different enemies are hungry for your flesh, and some of them will stalk you relentlessly. Fight them, run from them, or use your wits to outsmart them.
  • Become a detective. Search your environment, inspect items and read documents in order to unlock clues. Use these clues to reveal hidden troves or unlock secret passageways.

Dead of Darkness is scheduled to launch for PC on Thursday, 23rd January 2025. A demo is now available via Steam, where you can also wishlist the game. Eastasiasoft will be bringing the game to PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch and Xbox consoles at a later date; details on which will be announced in due course.

About Dark Atlas: Infernum.

Out there, the world is falling apart. Massive electrical storms have begun to sweep across the Earth. After each passing, little by little, the streets are filled with ghosts. Scientists and sorcerers of our time have decided to call them “Imprints”. They look like our dead but don’t react to any stimuli. They are entities contemplating the night of the cities. And the nations are burning.

Your destiny, however, is to escape from a nightmare in which the ‘Word’ is perpetually harassing you through your memories, the ruins of civilization, the nether abysses of your soul, and hell itself. It is time to face the questions and the consequences of your actions. You must fight against the captivity you have been subjected to for telling the truth. Because endless threads hang from your knowledge.

You can’t waste any more time. You must react and find the exit because you are in a labyrinth of crossroads. Outside, the skies crumble. Great forces are consolidating to seize power in the spectral world. They want to use them as instruments of desolation. They want you to tell them how to forge the holy book: the Corona Radiata.

Features

  • Single-player, first-person survival horror with a dark, disturbing narrative. 
  • Gameplay is steeped in psychological horror, stealth, and puzzles. 
  • Strong narrative content: an original story from the Saga Radiata, the literary universe created by Álvaro Aparicio that includes books, podcasts and other narrative formats, and in which the meta-anthology of horror Dark Atlas is integrated.
  • The cast of voices in Spanish is led by Alberto “Láudano” Martínez, voice of the popular Spanish podcast Noviembre Nocturno.
  • A haunting original soundtrack composed to accompany the dark narrative. 
  • Includes original collectables and Steam Achievements, so you’ll want to explore every corner…if you dare.
