Your Team, Your Drivers, Your Decisions. F1 Manager 2024, out now on PC and Console

Design, recruit and develop your way to the top of the sport in the quintessential F1® management experience

Cambridge, UK (23 July 2024) – Frontier Developments plc (AIM: FDEV, ‘Frontier’) today invites players to create their own team and take total control of the big decisions as their career unfolds in F1® Manager 2024, which launches digitally today across PC, PlayStation® 5, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch™,  PlayStation® 4 and Xbox One for a suggested retail price of £29.99/$34.99/€34.99. 

Fans can enhance their experience with F1® Manager 2024: Deluxe Edition, which expands their creative options with five additional classically inspired Create A Team livery patterns, whilst an additional five fictional Race Replay scenarios offer unique single-race challenges, all for a suggested retail price of £39.99/$44.99/€44.99.  

F1® Manager 2024 turns F1® fantasy into reality with the new Create A Team mode, where players can experiment with detailed logo and livery creation tools, choosing their challenge level using editable Team Origins to live out their own story and set the starting parameters of their career. Taking their team to the top will require careful management of both talent and resources, from negotiating sponsorships to maintaining their driver and staff mentality, ensuring every aspect of their constructor is ready for race day. 

With enhanced AI decision-making ensuring each team is always in the hunt for success, leaving a lasting legacy on Formula 1® requires effective decision making over multiple seasons. Players can cement their position by building a successful stable of up and coming affiliated drivers, or shake up the system by departing their team to take on their legacy with one of the established 10 constructors. The future of the sport is theirs to decide, with the option to simulate races bridging the gap between vital upgrade packages, or bringing tomorrow’s talents to the fore to see who will reign over the next chapter of F1®. 

Race weekends place simulation and strategy at the fore, as players react to every moment of tension; from a sudden downpour of rain and a late safety car, to the managed risk of new mechanical failures. Team Principals are required to weigh the cost of every decision and instruct their drivers to deliver the best possible results. Using the new Heli-cam to strategise from the skies or immersing themselves in the action with broadcast style cameras and an impressive 70,000 lines of real team radio, F1® Manager 2024 brings the sport to life like never before.

Pokemon-meets-Harvest Moon in Ova Magica, Launching In Early Access Today!!

Fresh off the heels of participation in this year’s Guerilla Collective showcase and a highly successful June NextFest, colorful JRPG Ova Magica launches into Early Access on Steam today, July 23rd, at 10am EST / 3pm BST.  

Billing itself as “Pokemon-meets-Harvest Moon”, the game has had a long history of development originating as far back as 2019. Developed by a primarily woman-led team, the game has received extensive hype online, and became the #6 most funded game campaign of 2021 on Kickstarter (as well as received the “Big K” community award from the site). The game has had significant attention directed toward it since then from multiple locations, including being spotlighted in an edition of the 2022 PC Gaming Show thanks to its publisher, Top Hat Studios, Inc. The game received significant attention in recent months thanks to its participation in the Steam Cozy Celebration, Guerilla Collective, Woman-led Games Showcase, Games Baked In Germany, and the most recent Steam NextFest. Players have given extremely positive feedback on the prior-available extensive demo, which showcased 4-5+ hours of content.

After much hard work and years of effort, the team is extremely proud to be able to present its initial early access. The early access version of the game is feature complete and features an estimated 20-30+ hours of gameplay,  if not more. It is planned to feature the majority of content minus end-game content.  The game will launch today at a price of 25 USD/EUR/GBP and maintain a 10% discount for 2 weeks. A trailer for the game’s early access launch can be viewed below:

The game features an extensive, highly interwoven mixture of Creature Collector, JRPG, and Simulation elements. You’re the new resident of Clover Town, and your new life awaits you! Befriend blobs, explore themed dungeons, and maybe meet the love of your life! When not battling fellow blob trainers or making friends with (or doing errands for) the other residents of the town, tend to your very own customizable farmstead, where you can grow and craft ingredients & materials to not only strengthen your blobs and make money but also unlock beautiful new worlds full of adventures.

The goal of Ova Magica is to combine the charm of classic genres with new, modern and intuitive twists on staple mechanics. After moving to take care of a farmstead in the aforementioned quaint little hamlet Clover Town, you’re introduced to something that changes your life forever: Blobs! Blobs are cute, wobbly, and rotund creatures which hatch from eggs. Treat them with care and they can become your greatest companions!

Coming in dozens of varieties (with all of them being cross-breedable, for hundreds if not thousands if not more results!), Blobs can face off against rival blob trainers and help you out around the farm and in the wider world with their unique abilities. As your relationship with the locals (some of whom you might choose to settle down with!) and the town increases, the secrets of Clover Town start to unlock in front of you. And by secrets, we mean hidden temples, dungeons, and portals to exotic dimensions!

These new worlds contain strange items and priceless artifacts that hold the key to the town’s – and your own – future. Tame and raise blobs, battle trainers or wild dungeon blobs, build your homestead, explore the secrets of the world, and win the hearts of the residents of the townfolk. What will you write in the history book of Clover Town?
