New Update for Lake Out Today – The Cats of Providence Oaks Need Cuddles

Looking for another excuse to visit the peaceful town of Providence Oaks? Well, developer Gamious and Whitethorn Games have a great one for you. Today (on National Cat Day, nonetheless), a brand-new, highly asked-for feature has been added to Lake on PC, Xbox, and PlayStation — you can now pet the cats that are lounging around Mildred’s home! Just like in real life, each cat is different and has their own unique response, so it’s up to you to determine how to earn their trust so you can give them all the pets… and maybe even that ever-elusive belly rub. 

In celebration of the new update, you can purchase Lake on Steam at a 50% discount starting today until August 14. 

Catch a glimpse of the Pet the Cat update in the trailer below:

But that’s not all — in addition to the Pet the Cat update, a new Endless Mode, recently released on PC, has been added for Xbox and PlayStation players! If you can’t get enough of the sleepy little town by the lake after you’ve finished the main story, you can now jump back into The Goose and keep on delivering mail to the eclectic residents as long as you’d like — no new stories, no additional dialog, just some scenic and relaxing driving around beautiful Providence Oaks. 

About Lake

Travel back to 1986 and take on the role of 40-something-year-old Meredith, who leaves the fast-paced drudgery of her big city life and returns to her quiet, rustic hometown. During her two-week stay in the beautiful lakeside community of Providence Oaks, Oregon, she’ll fill in for her father – the local mail carrier – where she will not only deliver letters and parcels to new and old friendly faces but will also rekindle old friendships, make new ones, and maybe even find romance.

At the end of her vacation, will Meredith return to the big city, or will she choose a different path for her life? It’s up to players to steer the story how they see fit in this slice-of-life interactive game.

Key Features of Lake include:

  • Travel back to 1986 and escape to a beautiful, rustic town that is free of the stresses of smartphones, the Internet, and social media.
  • Ditch that city life and desk job and go to drive your father’s mail truck in rural Oregon, or kick up your feet and let auto-pilot do the work.
  • Choose from a variety of after-work activities that include hanging with friends, helping out your neighbors, or staying in with a good book.
  • Experience a branching story that doesn’t shy away from slice-of-life themes. Like life, there are no right or wrong answers.

Lake is now available on PC via Steam or Epic Games Store, on PlayStation 4 and 5, Xbox One and Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch for $19.99 USD. The Pet the Cat update and Endless-Mode are now available for PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation platforms.

Hunt: Showdown 1896 Introduces Hellborn, A Brand-New Wild Target, Alongside Scorched Earth Event Reveal, Coming August 15 to PC, PlayStation 5 & Xbox Series X|S!

A monstrous new creature spreads the agony of the tortured landscape itself

FRANKFURT Aug. 8, 2024 – Today Crytek is thrilled to introduce the latest in-game Event, Scorched Earth, alongside a new Wild Target—the Hellborn. Prowling the tortured peaks of the brand-new Colorado map, Mammon’s Gulch, players face off against this game changing new threat in Hunt: Showdown 1896, launching on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S on August 15.

Starting off in the new Colorado biome, Scorched Earth brings three Pacts for Hunters to pledge to as they step off the train from Louisiana into the shadow of the mighty Rocky Mountains. The Mammon’s Gulch Incursion is fully underway as horrors beyond comprehension spill forth from the oil wells and mines running through the mountain peaks.

Alongside the fiery new Wild Target, the upcoming Event brings new equipment, ammo, and weapons, including the 1865 Carbine, the Infantry 73L base rifle with a sniper variant, Bear Traps as a new Tool, and a Crossbow Deadeye scoped variant. A completely new Weekly Challenge system better supports players joining the action mid-Event, and a Battle Pass full of both free and premium rewards are available to unlock.

Hellborn

An amalgam of fire and flesh and a source of immense heat, the Hellborn can be tracked audibly by listening in Dark Sight. Boiled up from the depths of Mammon’s Gulch, this new Wild Target can be found at multiple locations, stalking the land until provoked into explosive response.

Posing an entirely new threat, the Hellborn moves frantically to slag trespassing Hunters, scorching everything in its considerable reach. Be warned—the Hellborn is best dispatched quickly, as its raging howls attract the attention of other Hunters across the Gulch, multiplying the threat minute by minute.

Event Pacts

Attempting to impose order, The Lawful Pact look to establish Hunter authority in the Gulch under Wyatt Preston’s command. Making their first appearance, The Wilderness Pact puts no trust in the law. They have stepped out of their wild and remote haunts to defend the integrity of the mountain ranges and punish those who corrupt or exploit them.

Meanwhile, The Demented Pact have resurfaced under the cover of darkness, following signs of this new Corruption with twisted hearts. They seek to nurture and multiply the new wonders the Sculptor has wrought. Players are able to pledge to their chosen Pacts at the Supply Points, which grants them an exclusive Trait enabling fresh gameplay opportunities. Some existing Traits also gain bonus Conditional Trait Effects for Hunters who pledge to specific Pacts.

The Wilderness Pact Traits

  • Surefoot (New) – sprint with primed throwables or while using a First Aid Kit
  • Beastface (Conditional Trait Effect) – avoid triggering animals or breaking branches
  • Frontiersman (Conditional Trait Effect) – gain an extra Pledge Mark for the first 30 Event Points collected per Mission

The Lawful Pact Traits

  • Peacekeeper – restore an empty Health Chunk after looting a dead Hunter
  • Packmule (Conditional Trait Effect) – find extra ammo when looting dead Hunters
  • Vigilant (Conditional Trait Effect) – double the range of Dark Sight

The Demented Pact Traits

  • Berserker – boost melee damage
  • Adrenaline (Conditional Trait Effect) – 25% speed boost for 20 seconds when at critical health
  • Ghoul (Conditional Trait Effect) – restore health when damaging a Boss Target or Wild Target

Hunters will also be able to earn Event Pledge Marks and acquire additional boons and rewards, with the ability to carry up to 4 Pledge Marks at a time.

Hunt: Showdown 1896 brings the new Rocky Mountains experience to PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5 on August 15. Showcasing the CRYENGINE 5.11 upgrade, a new Wild Target, the Hellborn, unleashes visually spectacular fights and contributes to the unparalleled soundscape of the sprawling vistas and stoic mountains as its roars echo throughout the land, unleashing the Scorched Earth Event.

With tons of new content and a generational upgrade on consoles, stay tuned to the official channels for more updates and details this summer in the lead up to the launch of Hunt: Showdown 1896.

About Hunt: Showdown 1896

Hunt: Showdown 1896 is the new era of the competitive first-person bounty hunting game, packing the thrill of survival and the reward of profit into a horror match-based format. Set in Colorado in 1896, the game boasts a mixture of PvP and PvE elements that create a uniquely tense experience. It’s not just the monsters who are a threat—it’s every Hunter on the map. In the classic Bounty Hunt game mode, a match pits 12 players—playing solo or in teams of two or three—against each other as they race to take out gruesome creatures for a Bounty they must collect and extract from the map. Hunt‘s Soul Survivor mode offers a shorter match for solo players to scavenge for weapons as they compete for a diminishing pool of Bounty. The higher the risk, the higher the reward–but a single mistake could cost you everything. Hunt: Showdown 1896 is coming to PC, PlayStation 5 and Series X|S on Aug. 15, 2024. For more information, visit www.huntshowdown.com.
