Collect resources on your explorations and lead the Knacks back to their village. Use your resources and the new inhabitants to rebuild the village and expand it from a few shacks to a safe haven!

Set out to discover beautiful procedurally generated biomes while looking for lost ones, and meet quirky inhabitants on your way, from lazy trolls and crazy scientists, to…chickens?! They all offer their own quests and bargains to you. While some may seem rather dubious, they all promise unique rewards, from resources and tools to upgrades to your equipment. Choose which offers you are willing to take—it’s all up to you!

Features

• Explore an ever-sprawling world full of small adventures and big surprises
• Traverse various biomes in a procedurally generated world with endless replayability

• Lay the foundation for future adventures, as each new building and vendor will give you a head start on your next quest

Royalty has a dark side in this critically adored visual novel

Boulder, Colo. (June 8, 2024) – Serenity Forge and Black Tabby Games announced today during the Future of Play Direct showcase that they are teaming up to bring the acclaimed Slay The Princess – The Pristine Cut and all its reality-bending moral dilemmas to PlayStation, Xbox, Nintendo Switch and PC in Fall 2024. The news was accompanied by a new trailer showcasing the perils that await you:

The new Pristine Cut edition of Slay The Princess is the definitive release of the beloved title and brings a host of brand-new content to the psychological visual novel, including:

• New content totaling 35% more gameplay, including:
• Three brand new chapters
• Never before seen princesses
• Expansions to familiar routes
• An entirely new ending 
• A gallery to relive your memories, triumphs and untimely deaths throughout Slay the Princess’ many encounters
• Over 1,200 new frames, hand-illustrated by Abby Howard
• Over 2,500 new lines of dialogue fully voiced by Jonathan Sims and Nichole Goodnight

You’re on a path in the woods, and at the end of that path is a cabin. And in the basement of that cabin is a Princess.

You’re here to slay her. If you don’t, it will be the end of the world. She will do everything in her power to stop you. She’ll charm, and she’ll lie and she’ll promise you the world, and if you let her, she’ll kill you a dozen times over. You can’t let that happen.

You do care about the fate of the world, right?

From the creators of Scarlet Hollow, Slay The Princess offers a horror experience where player choice has drastic consequences. In this game, you will die a lot. And every time you die, the game starts over, only things are a little different: the cabin, the princess, even the voices in your head. What you choose to believe, and how you act on those beliefs, has the power to shift the story in dramatic directions. Next time you see the princess, will she be a normal princess, or will she be a 10-ft tall demon? No matter what reality you fall into, every background and sprite is beautifully hand-penciled by Ignatz award-winning artist Abby Howard and perfectly captures the eerie atmosphere and shock of surprising moments.

Originally released on Steam in October of 2023, Slay The Princess has been met with overwhelmingly positive reviews. With the new content coming to the game, returning players will have plenty to sink their teeth into, while new players will have the unsettling, tragicomic horror experience of a lifetime. Two physical editions, a Standard Edition and Collector’s Edition, will be available for purchase for fans, collectors and physical media enthusiasts to add to their shelves. Physical editions will be available at major retailers and on the Serenity Forge store for Nintendo Switch and PlayStation 5. Fans can pre-orders theirs today at https://store.serenityforge.com/collections/slay-the-princess

• A Physical copy of the game
• Sticker sheet 
• OST download card

• A gorgeous 17cm Princess statue
• Knife emblem bookmark, for your stabby reading needs

M. Bison gameplay reveal comes one day after Year 2 character roster unveiled

London (June 8, 2024) Galloping fiercely into battle as the 23^rd character in Street Fighter™ 6 is the Psycho-powered fallen dictator, M. Bison, entering the fray on June 26, 2024, across PlayStation®5, PlayStation®4, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam! M. Bison’s gameplay reveal comes just one day after all four Year 2 characters were announced, including M.

The iconic, power-hungry M. Bison was last seen seemingly defeated by Ryu in Street Fighter™ V, and has now awoken and stumbled into the Ruined Lab with only one thought on his mind: reattaining the villainous power he once had.

M. Bison’s move set will feel both familiar and fresh compared to previous Street Fighter installments, with Psycho Power and aggressive pressure still major parts of his fighting style, featuring some of the following moves:

• Shadow Rise: A quick and high-reaching jump that has two follow-ups, including his iconic Head Press and Devil Reverse moves
• Backfist Combo: An all-new move that allows M. Bison to plant Psycho Mines in his opponents
• Knee Press Nightmare: M. Bison’s Level 1 Super Art that takes aim at opponent’s legs with a series of crushing blows and is invincible on start-up
• Psycho Punisher: M. Bison’s Level 2 Super Art that launches opponents into the air with a powerful shockwave from a stomp
• Unlimited Psycho Crusher: M. Bison’s Level 3 Super Art sees the villain rush towards his opponent and smash them into the ground with devastating strength

Check out even more details on his moves here so you can better prepare for the impending evil.

M. Bison will be unlocked for owners of the Year 2 Character Pass and Ultimate Pass, and M. Bison’s iconic Outfit 2 from Street Fighter™ II: Champion Edition will be released at the same time as well.

We’ll have much more to share about Year 2 characters in the months ahead – and don’t forget to check out the full Year 2 announce trailer here on YouTube – so stay tuned for more later this year!

TOKYO — June 8th, 2024 — Witch of Oblivion, the sorcerous soulslike set in an ever-changing open world developed and self-published by Tasto Alpha, sparks into existence in a reveal trailer featured in today’s IGN Live showcase. Master the flames on PC via Steam Early Access next spring.

In an age forgotten, the godlike Ancients have wielded nature’s might to dominate the world for time immemorial. The awakening of Cinder Witch Lyva provides kindling for hope to blossom, but upon waking from her years-long slumber, she has no recollection of her life’s purpose. Search high and low across an ever-changing forest for memory fragments to unveil her reason for existence in a colorful, dreamlike RPG adventure.

Explore a vast, dangerous woodlands that magically alters the locations of its fantastical inhabitants, keeping Lyva on her toes for what’s behind each tree. Befriend docile critters in possession of magical secrets, and battle aggressive fauna like flying snakes, sprouting spiders, and ferocious fowl. Then, interact with sage-like animals and the human-esque Wildfolk, who offer sidequests in exchange for worship and gifts. 

Within Lyva lies the ancient Fire Magicks, versatile offensive and defensive magicks that can be used to destroy, create walls of flame, traverse the environment and even conjure a healing bonfire. Her magicks can even be used to improve her close quarters combat with her staves, or mix movement abilities with counterattacks for an advancing parry. Conjure up to four abilities at once, and equip additional passive skill gems and talismans for stat boosts.

Time is of the essence during Lyva’s excursions into the unknown: keep an eye on her energy levels during exploration and battle, lest she suffer a narcoleptic need for sleep that transports her back to the last visited Tree of Respite. Visit the shopkeeper to purchase new spells, use them to strengthen Lyva, increase her resistance to sleep to elongate each run, and awaken to a different landscape as the field rearranges itself with newly positioned enemies and dungeons.

Respect the Forbidden Flame — capable of burning friends and foes alike — or risk uncontrolled destruction of innocent life. Indiscriminate use will leave the forest and its furry inhabitants in ashes, leading to untold consequences and altering the story’s trajectory. Ready to unleash Lyva’s full destructive capabilities? Climb online leaderboards against witches around the world while burning bosses to a crisp in record time.

“Witch of Oblivion mixes the classic soulslike experience with elements of precision and self-control. Instead of only monitoring health and magic reserves, it also requires consideration of collateral damage,” says Tom Ikeda, Director at Tasto Alpha. “Our crafting system allows for near infinite ways to customize your playstyle, so players can explore the effects of a cautious approach, wanton destruction, and everything in between. ”

Witch Of Oblivion will be available on PC via Steam Early Access in spring 2025. For more information on the game, visit the official Steam page, and follow @WitchofOblivion on Twitter / X.

Bandai Namco Europe revealed today that Unknown 9: Awakening, the narrative action-adventure game by Reflector Entertainment, will take players on a journey across the world starting in Spring 2024 (ANZ) on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S and PC via Steam.

In a new trailer revealed today, players can discover more about the motivations driving Haroona’s quest and spot a few of the friends and foes she’ll encounter along the way. Haroona has relied on her beloved mentor Reika’s teaching to help her master her unique Fold-related abilities since she was a child. For years, she trained Haroona on the intricacies of this other dimension, tutored her on the ways of the world, and often recounted tales of enigmatic immortal figures said to preside over all of humanity’s knowledge — the Unknown 9. 

Unfortunately, all this training came to a sudden halt the moment Vincent Lichter decided to take Reika’s life. Believing the Unknown 9 have kept humanity from realising its true potential for far too long, the leader of the Ascendants and former pupil of Reika’s has committed himself to freeing the world of their influence once and for all. His goal? To ensure humankind takes control of its own destiny, no matter the consequences. His actions cost Haroona too much, and so she sets off on a journey to stop him. Can Haroona prevent humanity’s best-kept secrets from falling into the wrong hands?

Dive into the story trailer here:

Unknown 9: Awakening is a third-person, narrative-driven, action-adventure game that follows the story of Haroona, a Quaestor born with the ability to venture into the Fold: a mysterious dimension that overlaps our own. On her quest for powerful hidden knowledge, she will learn to master her unique connection to the Fold, which allows her to channel its powers into our world. But such power does not go unnoticed. Haroona quickly becomes the target of the Ascendants, a splinter faction of a secret organisation known as the Leap Year Society, which wants to use the Fold to alter the course of human history.

Unknown 9: Awakening will launch this Fall 2024 for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S and PC via Steam.
