New trailer showcases the intense strategy needed to unify ancient China! 

Hertfordshire, 12^th July 2024 – Today, KOEI TECMO Europe and developer Kou Shibusawa announced that their highly anticipated strategy game, ROMANCE OF THE THREE KINGDOMS 8 REMAKE, will be available digitally 24^th October 2024 on Nintendo Switch™, PlayStation®5, PlayStation®4, and Windows PC via Steam®. To help celebrate the announcement, an all-new trailer was released along with stunning key art created by illustrator Keiji Hida, the artist behind the amazing visuals of ROMANCE OF THE THREE KINGDOMS  XIV.

Discover the first trailer of ROMANCE OF THE THREE KINGDOMS 8 REMAKE on YouTube

ROMANCE OF THE THREE KINGDOMS 8 REMAKE is based on ROMANCE OF THE THREE KINGDOMS VIII with Power Up Kit, complete with both the “All Officers Play” and “All Periods Scenarios” features, as well as a host of new content to deliver the most complete Romance of the Three Kingdoms experience to date.

Among the new additions, the number of playable officers has been increased from approximately 600 to 1,000. With newly added officers and forces, players can discover new events and relationships between officers for an even more authentic experience. The “All Periods Scenarios” feature has also been updated to offer over 55 scenarios, including fictional ones, making it the largest number of scenarios available in the series history. From the end of the Eastern Han dynasty to the final age of the Three Kingdoms period, players can choose any officers and which period they’d like to play, creating numerous possible combinations for an experience unique to each player.

Through the evolved “All Officers Play” feature, players have the option to take control of the powerful rulers and the officers who serve them or be a free officer and join a vagrant army. This enables players to explore the Three Kingdoms with a fresh and unique experience every time through thanks to the incredible amount of new features and the variety of associations formed both on and off the battlefield highlighted by both “Symbiotic” and “Antagonistic” relationships.

“Symbiotic” relationships are established when the player interacts with other officers through situations like commands or events and a certain number of “sympathies” occur. When a player is in a “Symbiotic” relationship with another officer, the officer will join and help the player in many situations, including domestics, councils, and battles. On the other hand, if the relationship is “Antagonistic”, the officer will not accept visits from the player and may even hunt them on the battlefield.

Another unique strategy element to ROMANCE OF THE THREE KINGDOMS 8 REMAKE is the addition of the powerful and unique “Traits”. Helping officers stand out, “Traits” is an ability possessed by some officers with exceptional achievements or memorable anecdotes in history. For example, Cao Cao is able to act twice in council and Liu Bei is able to meet with officers without fail.

The variety of relationships built up throughout the experience are now dramatically displayed through a number of new elements. Players will be able to check on the constantly changing dynamics of each relationship through the “Relationship Chart”. The “Relationship Chart” not only shows relationships like “Sworn Siblings” and “Spouses” but also depicts special relationships such as “Destined Partners”, “Rivals”, and “Sworn Enemies” as well as displaying the various “Symbiotic” and “Antagonistic” connections.  As relationships deepen with others, “Linked Forge” may even occur during battles and missions. These special links allow for a better performance beyond individual capabilities in various situations.

In addition, many events in the game, ranging from major historical incidents to anecdotes of officers can now be initiated by officers through “Tales”. This allows players to selectively participate in the events of their choosing. Additionally, some events offer choices and the player’s decisions will dynamically alter the lives of officers and the Three Kingdoms.ROMANCE OF THE THREE KINGDOMS 8 REMAKE, will be available digitally 24^th October 2024 on Nintendo Switch™, PlayStation®5, PlayStation®4, and Windows PC via Steam®.

Concord’s Early Access Beta is almost here and the Firewalk team is so excited to finally be able to welcome players into the Concord galaxy. The team can’t wait to see who your favourite Freegunners are, or what combos and strats will cook up as players build their crew. 

Before we head into both our Early Access and Open Beta weekends, PlayStation AU wants to share some more important information with players like, when you can pre-download, when the servers go live, some goodies you can earn from participating, and more. 

We’re especially excited to announce that PlayStation Plus is also inviting all members to participate in the Beta Early Access weekend. Just look for the option to download and play the beta when you boot up your PS5!

With that being said, let’s dive in!

Concord Beta Early Access (July 13 – 15) and Open Beta (July 19 – 22)¹

The Concord Beta Early Access weekend on PS5 and PC will begin tomorrow, Saturday, 13 July, at 3am AEST. Players can pre-download the Concord Beta starting today! 

Pre-ordering any edition of Concord will grant you access to the Beta Early Access weekend, as well as four extra codes you can share with friends so you can squad up with your own crew and take on rival crews together. Your extra codes will be for the same platform you pre-ordered on. 

The Open Beta will begin next week, from Friday, 19 July, at 3am AEST, through Monday, July 22. You will also be able to pre-download on PS5 starting Thursday, 18 July at 3 AM AEST.

Get to know the Concord galaxy 

During the Early Access and Open Beta, all 16 of the launch Freegunners will be unlocked and available to play and customise. Whether you want to snipe from afar, lock down an area, provide support for your teammates, or… just dive head-first into the fight, the full roster of Freegunners has something for everyone. It’s been a minute since we’ve checked in with the Freegunners of the North Star, so the Firewalk team will also be sharing the first Vignette during the Early Access Beta and can’t wait for players to learn more about the crew and their tidy ship.

There will be three modes, Clash Point, Trophy Hunt and Cargo Run, available to play during the Beta Early Access weekend. It was important to Firewalk when developing Concord to make sure there were modes for everyone, so whether players are looking to queue up for a quick round of Trophy Hunt or want to prove you and your crew have the best strats to retrieve Blue Buddy in Cargo Run, there’s something for everyone. There will also be four maps players will get to explore and play on: Freewater, Star Chamber, Water Hazard, and Shock Risk. 

Once players head into the Open Beta next weekend, a new mode will also be added, Area Control, and a new map, Bone Mines. Check out the original announcement of the beta to learn a little bit more about each of the maps and modes available during our Beta weekends.

Beta Rewards

If players plan on joining for both Early Access and Open Beta, their progress will carry over between the weekends. However, please keep in mind that the progress from either Beta will not carry over to our official launch on 24th August (AEST).

Life as a Freegunner is all about taking high-stakes jobs with your crew and reaping the rewards, so as a thank you, players will receive a few goodies for just participating: a Frog Weapon Charm (Frog, stands for “From Orbit to Ground”, and is the name of the Northstar’s drop ship, not a literal frog, everyone’s favourite amphibian), a Star Flare Icon and Business Card.

Beta PC specs and features 

The Concord Beta Early Access weekend and Open Beta weekend will support cross-play so players can play with your friends across both PS5 and PC. For players on PC, we’re excited to share the system specifications and just some of the supported features for the Concord Beta on PC:

The Concord Beta will also support:

• 4K*
• Ultrawide 21:9*
• Uncapped Framerate*
• KBM and DualSense Controller Support

Please note these system specs and features are for the Early Access and Open Beta. Be on the lookout for more details about Concord on PC, including final specs and additional features, in the lead-up to launch in August.

We can’t wait for all players to experience the Concord galaxy this weekend, and we’re excited to hear who your new mains are and see all your hype clips and fan art.

“Our mission at First Break Labs is to empower indie developers,” said Alfonso Cubias, Chief Publishing Officer, First Break Labs. “Some of the most innovative and creative ideas in gaming originate from independent studios. Our goal is to provide them with the resources and support they need to bring their creative visions to life and reach a global audience.”

With experience publishing everything from one-person indie titles to AAA blockbusters, single-player narratives to games-as-a-service, and long-revered nostalgic franchises to new IP, First Break Labs is dedicated to providing a full spectrum of support and resources, tailored to each game.

Most importantly, First Break Labs is announcing four signed games set to launch in 2024-2025: Entropy Survivors, Warside, Baseless, and Particle Hearts. All four bring a new and exciting take within their genres. First Break Labs has chosen to work with developers who bring something fresh to the gaming landscape. Each title was selected by the First Break Labs team based on its merits of quality and fun.

• Entropy Survivors: A Bullet Heaven roguelike featuring an unlikely interplanetary duo: a formidable mech and a sharpshooting space frog. Each pair is equipped with unique abilities and customizable weaponry. Entropy Survivors can be played solo or with a team of 2-4 players in an online co-op.
• Warside: Fast-paced, turn-based tactics game. With a story campaign, multiplayer support, and a built-in map editor, the fight for victory never ends. Choose your Commander, assemble your forces, and battle your way to victory.

With shooting equating to movement, players navigate a 360° gravitational environment, creatively demolishing every enemy in their path to save their adopted family. Armed with potent weaponry and accompanied by charming companions, embark on a journey through a vibrant galaxy worth defending.
• Particle Hearts: A third-person adventure game where travelers explore a world made entirely of particles. Using special abilities to manipulate particles, solve puzzles, and avoid detection, players must uncover the role they play in this sinister and beautiful land.
