Travel through time and save Heaven from a fate worse than death (you know, if Heaven wasn’t a thing anymore).
Bristol, United Kingdom — September 26, 2024 | The time has come. Yogscast Games and Perfectly Paranormal are proud to announce that The Holy Gosh Darn is here! Launching across PC, Switch, Xbox and PlayStation, this satirical tale sees players become a mediocre angel with one job: Saving Heaven from total annihilation. Just a normal Tuesday, really!
It turns out the preservation of angels, demons, humans — and everything in between — isn’t easy. Players will need to jump through time, skip conversations they’ve heard before and learn about the past from the future. This isn’t all blue boxes or vehicular space-time manipulation, instead, the fate of the world lies in the ticking hands of a golden watch.
Using unique time-travel, players will use clues they’ve gathered from the future to alter the past. Stuck behind a door, go find the code and enter it earlier in the day! A conversation gone wrong? No matter, just rewind and try again.

And in any order players see fit!

Players combine cards in a vibrant world where their small villages are trying to earn the favour of their god.

Open booster packs to acquire a variety of resources and gathering cards. These will form the foundation of your village’s growth and success. Strategically use your cards to maximise resource collection and efficiency.
Gain your god’s favour to access new technologies and make breakthrough discoveries. Combine your hard-earned resources to craft new materials, tools and structures. Watch your village evolve as you unlock new possibilities!
Prepare your offerings to earn valuable boons and bonuses for your tribe. But beware – appease your god or face his wrath. He can unleash devastating consequences upon your village, from lightning strikes and tornadoes to harming your loyal followers.
Head out on expeditions to discover new resources and expand your options. But tread carefully – the wilderness is bustling with dangerous wildlife. Use your deck-building skills to create the perfect strategy against your opponents in combat to overcome these threats and return victorious.

Four strangers died that day. Now Teru, Aira, Manami, and Soukichi live again.Though technically free to enjoy their second chance at life to the fullest, they must now hunt down and slay specters in order to recharge their new lease on life.
While these four try to enjoy the gift they’ve been granted, they must now grapple with the fear that the energy fueling their new lives could easily run out before they can refuel, the uncertainty of when they’ll be called upon to fight these specters, and their new, dispassionate employer who treats them as disposable combatants with no concern for the unnatural libido and arousal caused by their new bodies’ reaction to stressors.

Wide Variety of Erotic Moments: With their new bodies reacting to stress with spikes of arousal, each of the four characters must find outlets for their unusual lusts, and each one will slake them in a variety of erotic ways.
Can these ordinary people estranged from violence cope with the murder they must now inflict to survive and endure the flames of lust now burning within? Will they ever truly return to their normal lives, or will their return remain a superficial farce?

Sydney, September 26, 2024 – Following a meeting of its Board of Directors, Ubisoft updates its financial targets for FY2024-25. The Company now expects net bookings of around €1.95bn, and around break-even non-IFRS operating income and free cash flow. The company now targets FY2024-25 Net bookings for the second quarter FY2024-25 to stand at around €350-370m million. The revised targets are mainly a reflection of decisions taken for Assassin’s Creed Shadows and the softer than expected launch for Star Wars Outlaws.
Listening to players’ feedback, and as an illustration of our player-centric approach, the following important decisions relative to Assassin’s Creed Shadows have been taken:
Assassin’s Creed Shadows will now be released on 14 February 2025. While the game is feature complete, the learnings from the Star Wars Outlaws release led us to provide additional time to further polish the title. This will enable the biggest entry in the franchise to fully deliver on its ambition, notably by fulfilling the promise of our dual protagonist adventure, with Naoe and Yasuke bringing two very different gameplay styles.
We are departing from the traditional Season Pass model. All players will be able to enjoy the game at the same time on February 14 and those who preorder the game will be granted the first expansion for free.
The game will mark the return of our new releases on Steam Day 1.
Additionally, despite solid ratings (Metacritic 76) and user scores across the First Party and Epic stores (3.9/5) that reflect an immersive and authentic Star Wars universe, Star Wars Outlaws initial sales proved softer than expected. In response to player feedback, Ubisoft’s development teams are currently fully mobilized to swiftly implement a series of updates to polish and improve the player experience in order to engage a large audience during the holiday season to position Star Wars Outlaws as a strong long-term performer. The game will be available on Steam on November 21.
Yves Guillemot, Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer, said “Our second quarter performance fell short of our expectations, prompting us to address this swiftly and firmly, with an even greater focus on a player-centric, gameplay-first approach and an unwavering commitment to the long-term value of our brands.
Although the tangible benefits of the Company’s transformation are taking longer than anticipated to materialize, we keep on our strategy, focusing on two key verticals – Open World Adventures and GaaS-native experiences – with the objective to drive growth, recurrence and robust free cash flow generation in our business.
In the light of recent challenges, we acknowledge the need for greater efficiency while delighting players. As a result, beyond the first important short-term actions undertaken, the Executive Committee, under the supervision of the Board of Directors, is launching a review aimed at further improving our execution, notably in this player-centric approach, and accelerating our strategic path towards a higher performing model to the benefit of our stakeholders and shareholders.
Finally, let me address some of the polarized comments around Ubisoft lately. I want to reaffirm that we are an entertainment-first company, creating games for the broadest possible audience, and our goal is not to push any specific agenda. We remain committed to creating games for fans and players that everyone can enjoy.”
Further details will be provided during Ubisoft H1 results announcement on October 30, 2024
