Sydney, Australia – August 30, 2024 – Today, Ubisoft, in collaboration with Lucasfilm Games, announced that Star Wars Outlaws, the first open-world Star Wars™ game, is now available on Xbox Series X|S consoles, PlayStation®5 and PC through the Ubisoft Store and Epic Games Store.

With development led by Massive Entertainment*, Star Wars Outlaws will invite players to experience the Star Wars galaxy like never before through an original story set between Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back™ and Star Wars: Return of the Jedi™. As the Galactic Empire relentlessly pursues the final defeat of the Rebel Alliance, the criminal underworld thrives. Fans will play as cunning scoundrel, Kay Vess (Humberly González), and her loyal companion Nix, (Dee Bradley Baker, Star Wars: The Bad Batch™), as they attempt one of the greatest heists the Outer Rim has ever seen. Seeking the means to start a new life, players will join Kay and Nix as they fight, steal, and outwit their way through the galaxy’s crime syndicates and join the galaxy’s most wanted.

In Star Wars Outlaws, Kay Vess and her companion Nix search for an opportunity of a lifetime. During this era, the Empire’s rule is distracted by the rebellion that won’t quit, leading to a golden age for the underworld. As a skilled thief, Kay’s antics catch the attention of Sliro, the leader of a new, foreboding criminal syndicate Zerek Besh. After Sliro places a bounty on Kay’s head, Kay and Nix are offered their one shot at freedom – pull off one of the greatest heists of all time. Kay and Nix will need to navigate the underworld across the galaxy, building their reputation with legendary criminal organizations including the Pyke Syndicate, the Hutt Cartel, the Ashiga Clan and Crimson Dawn as they grow from street thieves to skilled outlaws.

Kay and Nix can turn any situation to their advantage: use stealth and gadgets to gain the upper hand, use Nix to distract and draw away enemies, or engage in blaster combat in tense situations throughout their journey. In order to pull off the ultimate heist, Kay and Nix will search for and join forces with a cast of outlaws, including battle-hardened droid ND-5 (Jay Rincon). While stealing valuable goods, infiltrating secret locations, and outwitting enemies, they will need to carefully consider how their choices affect their status with each syndicate, as each move will influence Kay’s ever-changing reputation.

To gain the right resources and crew for the ultimate heist, Kay and Nix will travel across the galaxy and experience distinct new and iconic locations: Canto Bight, Kijimi, Tatooine, Akiva, and the windswept savannah of Toshara. Along the way, Kay will explore bustling cities and cantinas, race across sprawling outdoor landscapes on her speeder, and pilot her ship, the Trailblazer, through the wilds of space. When things go awry, the Trailblazer will also help them chase, evade and attack to gain the upper hand in thrilling dogfights with the Empire and other foes.

Experience A Revamped Urban Playground Featuring the Return of MyCOURT and the Reveal of Proving Grounds in a City Where You Can Play Anywhere and Win Everywhere

Today, 2K unveiled updates coming to The City in NBA® 2K25 for PlayStation®5 (PS5™), Xbox Series X|S and, for the first time, The City arrives on PC. Drawing on player feedback, NBA 2K25 welcomes players with a whole new revamped interactive City designed to feel more connected and intimate, a competitive hub on the Boulevard of Stars, a larger-than-life arena to house Proving Grounds, the return of MyCOURT and iconic 2K15 MyPARKS and much more.

“The City for NBA 2K25 has been redesigned with community feedback at the forefront,” said Erick Boenisch, VP of NBA Development at Visual Concepts. “We’ve built a completely new City that is significantly more intimate and accessible, brought back nostalgic fan-favorite experiences, and created new ways to compete for all skill levels. The City in NBA 2K25 provides a greater focus on basketball and a quicker entry into the experience allowing players to seamlessly connect and compete.”

The City offers a variety of improvements this year, including: 

• A Whole New Interactive City: NBA 2K25 features an all-new vibrant City with basketball at its core. Featuring a more condensed map where empty spaces have been eliminated and every building has a purpose, The City has been designed to be more intimate and feel more dynamic. Centrally located in the heart of The City is the Boulevard of the Stars, an upscale street with easy access to all of the game modes and experiences such as refreshed Pro-AM, The REC and Ante-Up. The street is also lined with a Walk of Fame, which showcases every NBA championship team and leaves spots yet to be filled. As players win championships of their own in MyCAREER, their dynasties will be memorialised alongside NBA history.
• MyCOURT: Answering the community’s call to bring it back, NBA 2K25 reintroduces MyCOURT. The apartment and basketball court combo at the center of The City is a player’s private hub to practice and experiment on the court and a central location for NBA 2K25‘s basketball-focused MyCAREER. Players can hone their skills and practice solo, or invite friends and MyCAREER teammates to join them for 1v1, 3v3, HORSE, and more game types. Players can personalise their MyCOURT with new wall mural art earned through Quests and Season rewards. 
• Proving Grounds: Proving Grounds is the new home for heightened competition in The City. The colosseum-inspired arena is the go-to for ranked play across intense 1v1, 2v2, 3v3 or 5v5 games with comp-level difficulty sliders and Shot Meters turned off for everyone. Proving Grounds will highlight who the very best NBA 2K25 players are with leaderboards that update daily to track the top-ranked players per game type. The Top 5 players each Season will earn the exclusive rewards while all who compete in Proving Grounds can tier up and earn the best REP in The City.
• RISE and ELITE Affiliations: The ELITE vs. RISE rivalry continues into NBA 2K25 with brand new parks for each affiliation. ELITE players will set up shop in the remains of an old fort that once served as a bustling center for seafaring pirate trade showcasing a pirate ship with playable courts on deck and inside. Those who join RISE will experience a futuristic and bustling robot manufacturing factory, featuring massive mechs actively being assembled all around. Based on community feedback, courts within each Affiliation park have been designed to be closer together and easy to hop between so players can get in on the action faster.
• Iconic MyPARK Integrations: NBA 2K25 dials up the nostalgia and celebrates a decade since NBA 2K15 by bringing back all four MyPARKs as events in the Event Center. From the sun-drenched Sunset Beach park, to the industrial Rivet City, the urban setting of the Old Town, and of course, the upgraded Old Town MyPARK on the aircraft carrier, all MyPARKs are getting remastered down to the last detail while incorporating new gen tech and lighting. A new remaster will be unveiled during each of the first four Seasons.
• Co-Op Streetball: Streeball returns with more over-top-rewards and three entirely new locations. Co-Op mode for Streetball is introduced in NBA 2K25, allowing players to join forces with up to two other friends in 3v3 games to take down a new set of bosses and complete Streetball Quests together.
• New Features for Beginners: Several new features have been added to NBA 2K25 to make The City more welcoming to beginners. Outside of every game mode building or activity, the new HoloHelp Info kiosks provide players a breakdown of how each mode works and the target skill level for the experience. Meanwhile, new novice-friendly Casual Courts with easier difficulty can be found in ELITE & RISE parks allowing players to learn how to play alongside other beginners.

For the first time, The City is coming to PC. Players with compatible hardware will experience enhanced realism in The City through ray tracing technology. Full details on The City,, including new updates across Streetball, REP, a new indoor karting experience, how players can access Triple Threat Park and more check out the Courtside Report and Developer Diary.

Two Aussie couples will tie the knot in legally binding weddings with the full blessing of The Lamb

Sydney, Australia, August 30, 2024 – Praise the Lamb! Devolver Digital and Massive Monster have announced they will host two Cult of the Lamb weddings at this year’s PAX Australia exhibition in Melbourne. The activity will be titled Unholy Matrimony – a Cult of the Lamb Wedding, and see two devoted couples commit their love for each other in front of the Lamb… and everyone attending PAX Australia.

The two weddings will take place at 11am and 3pm on Sunday October 13 and be conducted in a faithful life-size replica of the Cult of the Lamb Temple featured in the game.

The ceremonies will be real and legally binding, recognised by both the Victorian Government, and more importantly, the Lamb itself.

The Temple will be located next to the Handheld Lounge and the entrance to the Main Theatre, so there will be plenty of space for fans attending PAX Australia to come and join the congregation and celebrate with the happy couples as they tie the knot.

“Last year, we threw an epic rave at Federation Square, and over 6,000 people showed up,” said Julian Wilton, Creative Director at Massive Monster. “So, we thought, how do we top that this year? Easy… wedding rituals!”

“We’re definitely dialing up the crazy, but it’s all for you, our amazing fans. The love you’ve shown for our game has been incredible, and now it’s time to spread that love. And what better way to do that than by legally marrying two awesome couples?” Julian added.

In one of the most extravagant booths Pax Australia has ever seen, fans can visit the Temple on the Friday and Saturday of PAX Australia  (Oct 11 & 12) to watch various panels and presentations, play the latest update for Cult of the Lamb – Unholy Alliance, purchase items from the new range of Cult of the Lamb themed merchandise, or simply take selfies of themselves in front of the Temple basking in the full glory of the Lamb.

It’s time to “Break, Build, and Battle” with friends, as GUNDAM BREAKER 4, the co-op hack-and-slash action game from Bandai Namco Europe is now available to aspiring Gundam pilots worldwide. Fans can expect a memorable entry in the franchise and action-packed gameplay centred around building custom Gunpla models, taking them into battle, upgrading them with new and better parts, and creating new powerful Mobile Suits to continue the fight and share with other players via custom photos and dioramas. GUNDAM BREAKER 4 is now available on PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch, and PC via Steam.

As an aspiring Gunpla hobbyist, players will be able to mesh together their own mecha creations by using parts from more than 250 iconic Mobile Suits from throughout the Gundam series, and then test their creations on a virtual battlefield with up to 3 players in co-op multiplayer. Fight through missions to hack, slash and shoot through hordes of enemy mechs, build up combos by chaining together melee and ranged attacks, breaking off their parts to collect and upgrade builds. GUNDAM BREAKER 4 introduces an all-new feature to the series, where players will be able to dual-wield different weapons for unique combos in their quest for the best parts to build the perfect Gunpla. Fight through the game’s fully voiced story mode to uncover the sinister plots within the GBBBB battle simulator.

Watch the launch trailer for GUNDAM BREAKER 4 below:

Between battles, players access a robust mecha garage where they can customise their creations with new parts as well as paint, decals, and weathering to make the ultimate mecha expression for Gundam fans. Once players finish building their Gunpla, they have the option to bring it into a wide variety of both offline and online missions. Take down bosses or take on hordes of enemy mecha to gain new parts and equip new skills. Load up a Quest mission to fight for a veritable treasure trove of Gunpla parts or select specific NPC enemies to take their bounties for extra in-game currency. For the creative-minded, a brand-new feature unique to GUNDAM BREAKER 4 is the introduction of Diorama Mode. Players can construct elaborate scenarios with a variety of backgrounds, environmental elements, and special effects, then place any of their Gunpla creations in a diorama, capturing the perfect pose with highly articulable models and sharing their scenes with players around the world.

About NotGames 

NotGames is a British game studio that opened its doors in 2013 to attempt to save the charity that brought us all together. Coming from a bizarre background of film, TV, theatre, and comedy, NotGames aren’t your usual game developers. If you’re asking, we’d like to call ourselves ‘multi-talented all-rounders’, while our former employers would probably say we’re ‘unfocussed and easily distracted’.

Exhausted after the runaway success of the cult-classic NotTheNameWeWanted and the subsequent stillbirth of NotCoD (we don’t like to talk about it), we took some time out to contemplate our navels in a dark room. 

In 2017, we decided to get the band back together, with NotGames 2.0 combining satire, social commentary, and original gameplay into the dystopian wonderland of Not For Broadcast.

In 112 Operator, the player is in charge of answering emergency calls from people in need of help and managing emergency services. It is up to the player to correctly recognize the situation in a given case, give the right advice and send a fire, police or ambulance unit to help. It is also important to remember that the services do not have unlimited resources, so every decision of the operator matters.

REHOVOT, Israel – 29 August 2024 – Possible One: Lunar Industries, the first realistic industrial space simulator based on modern technologies from developer Upstairs Games, plants the flag for an Early Access debut on PC via Steam in 2025. Play Possible One: Lunar Industries for the first time when it makes its public debut this week at PAX West 2024.

Take command of humanity’s flagship attempt to establish vital facilities away from the gravitational confines of its mother planet, leading the construction and staffing of a permanent lunar base. Lay the project’s foundations with drone vehicles and tools, scout the craters with rovers, and build up habitats, reactors, hydroponics, and other experimental facilities.

Manage a variety of crew members like engineers, doctors, mechanics, agriculturalists, and scientists, from their hiring to their arrival on the lunar surface. Balance the crew’s sober true-to-life issues like radiation exposure, the physical challenges of low-gravity living, and the morale impact of living countless thousands of miles away from home on Earth.

Harvest the untapped wealth of resources buried beneath the lunar dust with tools and techniques only made possible due to human potential. Strategically engage with every step of the process necessary to make humanity’s foothold to the stars a sustainable reality. The future lies just beneath the rubble of Shackleton Crater!

“From the 1970s to now, humans have been fascinated by the new frontiers of outer space, but we consume so much sci-fi media that we forget what we’re able to accomplish in the here and now,” said co-founder Asaf Baitner. “We wanted to bring realism into the challenges of the space colony management genre, to re-ignite the excitement people have for what’s theoretically possible now.”

Possible One: Lunar Industries takes to the stars on PC via Steam Early Access in 2025. To learn more about Possible One: Lunar Industries, check out the official website, follow Upstairs Games on X, and join the official Discord server.
