European retail boxed editions coming for Nintendo Switch and PlayStation 5 alongside the digital release of the 2D action platformer. 

Barcelona, Spain – 25th July 2024. Global publisher and distributor SelectaPlay has today confirmed the release of two physical boxed editions of their upcoming 2D action platformer Morkull Ragast’s Rage. Releasing alongside the global digital PC and console launch, SelectaPlay has revealed a physical Standard and Collector’s Edition for PlayStation 5 and Nintendo Switch will be available via European specialist stores. 

Developed by Disaster Games, Morkull Ragast’s Rage is an exciting 2D action game that combines platforming and action with a touch of exploration. Take control of Morkull, God of Death and Darkness and Lord of the Ragast, and get ready to experience awesome gameplay mechanics that allow him to break the fourth wall and communicate with the player in some exciting and unexpected ways! 

SelectaPlay will be creating, publishing and distributing the physical versions of Morkull Ragast’s Rage for fans to enjoy, and has been working to create a Collector’s Edition worthy of the God of Death and Darkness himself! The limited Collector’s Edition will come with the physical release of the game, a set of four character stickers, a colour artbook with concept art and designs from the game and a CD of the game’s awesome soundtrack (along with a digital download code) all housed in a specially designed collector’s box.

Get ready to play as Morkull, the villain of this story who has some interesting knowledge. . . He knows that he is a character in a video game. He also knows the existence of a player who controls him (that is, you) and he knows of some developers who have created him (that is, us).

Your objective? Help Morkull escape from the Ragast so he can rule and carry out his evil plans around the world. Yep, that’s right. your typical cliché villain….

• Art and animation – Morkull Ragast ‘s Rage is completely hand-drawn and animated frame by frame. Inspired and influenced by traditional animated films and other two-dimensional video games. This traditional animation endows the entire cast of characters with great naturalness and life within.
• Break out of the fourth wall – What makes the game special is Morkull himself, his personality and character along with that fourth wall break that allows him to talk to players as if he were right there. We have endowed Morkull with great charisma and personality, constantly generating a lighthearted atmosphere, loaded with constant humour, bad jokes and pop culture references.
• Combat system – You’ll have your own hands and all the power that comes with being the God of Death and Darkness of course… plus you’ll have a wide selection of combos and abilities that will allow you to fight your way through the deepest corners of the Ragast.

Morkull Ragast’s Rage will be published globally via digital stores for PC via Steam, Nintendo Switch, Xbox Series and PlayStation 5 later in 2024. The physical Standard and Collector’s Editions will be available for Nintendo Switch and PlayStation 5 via European specialist retailers. Both the physical version and the digital version of Morkull Ragast’s Rage can now be pre-ordered.

The best titles of the year and the indie hits of the coming years 

Cologne, July 17th – Once again this year, the Indie Arena Booth (IAB) at gamescom offers the largest selection of the best indie titles of the year, where everyone is guaranteed to find what they are looking for. Over 160 titles from 37 countries have made it into the curated line-up and can be played by all visitors in hall 10.2, booth F010g – E019. 

The Indie Arena Booth trailer with the full bundle of games:

From action to contemplation, everything is offered: Those who like an adrenaline rush can turn the hordes of hell into kindling in the best Diablo style in Jötunnslayer: Hordes of Hel or escape from the Bastille in the bullet time platforming shooter Sacre Bleu. Or perhaps it could be Somber Echoes, a Metroidvania in a Greco-Roman spaceship?

Those who like it cozy, on the other hand, will also find what they are looking for, with very different approaches to the theme of comfort. Running a fantasy pub in Tavern Talk and looking for true love at the same time? That’s possible. Or how about making as much mess as possible as a chunky little pomeranian in Doronko Wanko? In Winter Burrow, on the other hand, you have to build a home as a small rodent and give your life meaning.

There are games that are worth a look for their art style alone: Keylocker mixes anime design with cyberpunk pixel optics, 30 Birds is inspired by Persian art and the historical-surreal fantasy world of Hieronymus is based on the work of the great master, Hieronymus Bosch himself.

But story-writting is not neglected either, and from Moses and Plato – Last Train to Clawville, a detective adventure with unsuspecting fox detectives, to the historical courtroom drama The Darkest Files and a melancholy journey through post-apocalyptic Seoul in Goodbye Seoul, fans of narrative games will get their money’s worth.

This year’s “Games that defy categorization” category includes Henry Halfhead, a game about the life story of half a head, or the wild adventures of a jellyfish who is abandoned by his wife and led astray by a drug-addicted magician (Netherworlds), as well as the rhythm puzzle platformer ANTRO, in which a nihilistic parcel delivery man runs parkour to the sound of hip hop and electro.

And there’s also a game about the suffering of game designers, in which players can finally experience for themselves what it’s like to fix bugs, add features and get one step closer to the release date…

As befits a world-class showcase, there are of course also some world premieres to marvel at. Playable for the first time ever are ChromaGun 2: Dye Hard, Morriton Manor Stories: Nordic Whispers, The Merlies and Usual June, as well as long-awaited fan favorites such as Slay the Princess – The Pristine Cut or Yes your Grace: Snowfall and many more. More highlights to be announced.

Memoriapolis’ innovative approach to city-building challenges the player to become both a visionary urban planner as well as a political leader.

Key features include:

• Dynamic Historical Progression: Navigate through distinct historical eras, making critical choices that impact the city’s development and layout
• Organic Growth: Create a harmonious cityscape to guide the organic growth of the city
• Building Management and Strategic Urban Planning: Optimize building placement, preserve or demolish buildings, strategically locate the city centre, and master the art of overlapping historical eras.
• Resource Optimisation: Efficiently collect, transform, and trade resources to fuel the city’s growth and prosperity
• Population and Politics: Meet the needs of the citizens, maintain political balance, and enact decrees to shape the city’s future – disregarding the populations wishes could lead to the end of your rule and game
• Worldwide Influence: Construct iconic wonders, expand the city’s global reach to solidify its place in history and face external challenges that can impact the city

“We wanted to create a game that not only challenged players’ strategic thinking but also allowed them to experience the thrill of building a civilization from the ground up.” said Jean Baptiste, Head of Studio at 5PM Studio. “Memoriapolis offers a unique blend of city-building and historical simulation, inviting players to make impactful choices that shape the destiny of their metropolis.”

Part of the Inside an Elevator Superdrop 2024, Secret Lair x Monty Python and the Holy Grail Vol. 1 and Vol. 2 On Sale Starting July 29th

Limited Quantity of Both Drops in Foil Edition Will also be Available at the Hasbro Pulse Booth During San Diego Comic-Con 2024

Today, Wizards of the Coast announced its debut collaboration with the British comedy classic, Monty Python and the Holy Grail and revealed two separate Magic: The Gathering Secret Lair sets, Monty Python and the Holy Grail Vol. 1 and Vol. 2.

A limited quantity of both drops in Foil Edition will also be available at the Hasbro Pulse booth #3213 during this year’s San Diego Comic-Con 2024. More information on each volume of the timeless drops is below:

Secret Lair x Monty Python and the Holy Grail: Vol. 1:

Five decades ago, King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table set off on a sacred quest to reclaim the Holy Grail. They… still haven’t found it. But they stopped by Secret Lair and told us all about their escapades, immortalised in Monty Python and the Holy Grail. Go watch it! We liked it so much that we made two drops inspired by it. This drop even has a double-sided Birds of Paradise that lets you choose between an African and European Swallow. How do we know so much about swallows? Well, you have to know these things when you’re a king.

Secret Lair x Monty Python and the Holy Grail: Vol. 2:

The volume of this drop shall be “2,” no more, no less. If thou proclaim it “1,” thou speakest of our other drop. The cards herein are different. If thou pronounce the volume to be “3,” thou speakest falsely for there is no such thing. “2” shall be the volume of this drop. And in this drop, thou shalt discover cards featuring scenes and quotes from Monty Python and the Holy Grail. And perchance thou shalt lobbest thine cards against thy foe to gain victory most sweet.

About Monty Python

Monty Python was born in May 1969, in a tandoori restaurant in Hampstead, where five Brits (Graham Chapman, John Cleese, Eric Idle, Terry Jones and Michael Palin) and an American animator (Terry Gilliam) first sat down to spice up the world of comedy by planning a new BBC series.

After the success of their debut series ‘Monty Python’s Flying Circus’, the group transformed the comedic landscape, producing multiple hit films including ‘Monty Python and the Holy Grail’ and ‘Monty Python’s Life of Brian’, as well as various live comedy performances, record albums, documentaries, books and the hit stage show ‘Spamalot.’

Monty Python revolutionised comedic entertainment with their surreal and absurdist humour, blending wit, satire, and slapstick in a way that had never been seen before. From argument clinics to dead parrots, the Pythons abandoned conventional structures and embraced “something completely different”.

Today, Python keeps their famous foot in the future with a wide range of merchandise and games, active social media channels and strategic brand partnerships ensuring that the work of Monty Python, in all its iterations, will continue to be loved by future generations.
