LILLE, France — June 10, 2024 — Kamaeru: A Frog Refuge, the cozy frog sanctuary farming sim developed by Humble Reeds and published by Armor Games Studios, springs into action on PC via Steam, Nintendo Switch, and Xbox Series X|S following this past Saturday’s Wholesome Direct.

Return home as Cleo, an adult yearning for a break from her mundane day-to-day, as she reconnects with Axel, her caring childhood friend known for his love of frogs. Rebuild their local wetlands and foster a home for frogs of all varieties in a restoration project filled with a colorful cast of characters working towards a wholesome goal.

Hop into a cozy farmland by collecting more than 500 adorable amphibians across eight species. Discover each one’s food preferences, specific color patterns, and unique traits, then breed them for repopulation and research. Capture ‘em all (on film, not with a net!) by photographing each frog throughout three distinct biomes and log them in the handy Frogedex. 

Create a peaceful home for all frog-kind by forming ponds, growing plants, and harvesting precious crops. Place comfy furniture, slippery slides, and refreshing pools to attract new visitors to the wetlands. Gather resources and craft goods for sale at shops to earn more funds to improve the frogs’ lovely new habitat.

After the main story concludes, work to complete the Frogedex, decorating the refuge, and restoring the wetlands. Collect sociable swamp dwellers of all kinds and watch their home flourish in a vibrant watercolor art style complimented by a cozy, soothing soundtrack.

“The comforting wetlands of Kamaeru are a great way to unwind and escape from daily life,” said Dan McNeely, CEO & Founder of Armor Games Studios. “As cozy gamers all over the world restore the wetlands in Cleo’s story, we hope it inspires a greater appreciation for nature, the ecosystem we live in, and a drive to protect the froggy friends we make along the way.”

Kamaeru: A Frog Refuge launches on PC via Steam, Nintendo Switch, and Xbox Series X|S now for $19.99 in English, French, German, Japanese, Spanish, Brazilian Portuguese, and Simplified Chinese.

TOKYO — June 10th, 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.

First Dwarf – The dwarven scout embarks on a do-or-die mission on June 19th – This is the perfect time to gather everything you might need to conquer the floating islands

Warsaw, Poland, June 10, 2024 – Developers from Star Drifters are proud to announce the release date of their latest game – First Dwarf. It will be available in Early Access on Steam starting June 19th. To mark the occasion, they unveiled a new trailer. Players excited to explore this unique blend of genres can also try out the demo version now on Steam.

During the open tests held between March and April, almost 25,000 people played First Dwarf. This shows how many players wait for the chance to experience the adventures of the dwarf Tru and his dragoness companion, Ragna. The game attracts players with its diverse gameplay that combines the most desired features of colony survival, action RPGs, city builders, and tower defence games.

„We’re counting down the days, and the whole team is excitedly awaiting the launch of First Dwarf in Early Access. Both the tests and the demo version are immensely popular among players, yet this is just a glimpse of what we aim to deliver to them on June 19th and in further updates. We’re eagerly awaiting feedback from our fans because we want to listen to their opinions and craft our game together with them. We also feel that with the support of the community, we’ll be able to build a title tailored to what players are currently looking for” said Jakub Wójcik, Star Drifters’ CEO.

The story developed by the team at Star Drifters will immerse players in the world of Driftland, a realm consisting of floating islands. On one of these islands, a dwarf crash-lands while on a mission to find a new home for his kin. The hero must survive in an unknown and hostile environment to transform the island into a haven for future settlers. Fortunately, Tru won’t be alone in his mission. He’ll be aided by the dragoness Ragna and a mighty mech, which he’ll operate himself to move around the island, collect resources, and build.

First Dwarf also features online and local co-op modes, allowing two players to join forces and take on the roles of either the dwarf or the dragoness, exploring, building, and uncovering new adventures together. The fun won’t be limited to just one island. As Tru progresses, he’ll visit various diverse and mysterious locations, expanding the scope of adventure and discovery. Everything is part of an effort to save the dwarves and uncover the truth about the expedition that his father disappeared on years ago.

Key features:

• Control dwarf Tru, pilot a powerful mech and fly with Ragna the Dragon, each with their skills to upgrade.
• Build, optimize and look after your colonies.
• Upgrade, craft and discover new structures, technologies, tools and weapons.
• Fight tainted enemies by engaging in close combat and by building defensive turrets and walls in advance, preparing not only for monster waves but also natural disasters.
• Heal tainted animals or purge the island of them – the choice is yours.
• Unveil the hidden secrets of Driftland and learn the truth about Tru’s father’s past.
• Embark on an adventure alone or with a friend in co-op assist mode.

First Dwarf will be available in Early Access from June 19th, and all players can already check out the demo on Steam. The title is being developed for PC as well as PlayStation 5, Xbox Series S/X, and Nintendo Switch, where it will be released after the launch of version 1.0.
