Sucker Punch co-founder Brian Fleming shared his thoughts on the upcoming PC version, here is what he had to say: 

“We’re proud to announce that our friends and partners over at Nixxes are bringing Ghost of Tsushima to PC! This is a first for Sucker Punch – all our previous work is console-exclusive, so we are excited about all this and Nixxes was the right team to do this project. With them on board, we knew the results would be nothing short of amazing! Now excuse me as I go order a Super Ultra Wide monitor!” – Brian Fleming, Co-Founder, Sucker Punch

For PC players who are new to the game, here’s an overview of everything that is included: 

Ghost of Tsushima Director’s Cut is an action-adventure game set in feudal Japan. Protagonist Jin Sakai was raised and trained in the ways of the samurai. His world is shattered when a Mongol invasion defeats the samurai army of his home on Tsushima island, and he is faced with a difficult decision: honour the tradition and customs of his upbringing and maintain a fight he cannot win, or deviate from his samurai path to protect the island and its people by any means necessary.  

In his quest to reclaim Tsushima, Jin seeks the guidance and support of old friends and new unlikely allies. He must break away from tradition, become a new kind of warrior, and protect what’s left of his home at all costs. 

Iki Island Expansion – In this story expansion, Jin discovers new locations, characters, and enemies on a mysterious island. The island of Iki is a wild, lawless land of raiders and criminals. Jin will have to bring all his skills to defeat the enemy and save Iki. 

Legends – Inspired by Japanese folk tales and mythology, this cooperative multiplayer experience consists of two-player story missions and four-player wave-based survival missions, as well as the competitive two-versus-two Rivals mode. Choose one of four classes: Samurai, Ronin, Hunter or Assassin and play with friends or via online matchmaking. 

Kurosawa Mode – Experience the game in black and white with film grain effects, as well as Japanese dialogue and English subtitles. This mode is inspired by the movies of legendary filmmaker Akira Kurosawa. 

On behalf of everyone at Nixxes Software and Sucker Punch Productions, we can’t wait to bring Ghost of Tsushima Director’s Cut to PC. We will have more information to share, such as system requirements, as we get closer to launch on Friday, 17 May.

The first title from Reflector Entertainment will launch this summer, with Anya Chalotra starring as main protagonist Haroona

Lyon, France – 6^th March 2024 – Bandai Namco Europe revealed today a first look at gameplay from narrative action-adventure game Unknown 9: Awakening. Developed by Reflector Entertainment, the title is set to release this summer on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S and PC via Steam.

Unknown 9: Awakening’s first gameplay trailer is available 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 organization known as the Leap Year Society, which wants to use the Fold to alter the course of human history.

Players will take on the role of Haroona, who embarks on a globetrotting journey to right the wrongs of her past. As this quest unfolds, players will choose whether to ambush opponents from the shadows or fight by stepping into their enemies to control them, dodge bullets, shield attacks, hurl energy, and devise creative combat combinations to customize their playstyle.

“We are thrilled to share some gameplay of Unknown 9: Awakening for the first time. It’s an exciting moment for the studio as our teams have been hard at work to create a new piece of this expansive narrative universe” said Christophe Rossignol, Creative Director at Reflector Entertainment. “The game will offer an exciting journey set in a rich and vibrant world for players to enjoy. We hope you will follow our next steps as we reveal more of this adventure!”

Joining in on this project is the talented Anya Chalotra, who portrays Haroona, the game’s audacious main protagonist. The actress’ knack for bringing strong female characters to life made her an obvious choice when it came to casting Unknown 9: Awakening’s lead character.

Unknown 9: Awakening is the key entry point into the Unknown 9 IP’s expansive narrative universe, which includes a series of interconnected adventures told across comic books, podcasts, novels, and more. Players will be able to extend their Unknown 9: Awakening experience by enjoying these tales. Those who know where to look will uncover their share of crossovers, callbacks, secrets and more.

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

BIP Blueprint links Studios in Early Development with Creators to Boost Visibility, Secure Superior Publishing Deals, Successful Game Launches

• Beck Interactive Partners, founded by industry expert Alex Beck, announces launch, aims to transform game representation and influencer landscape
• BIP emphasizes aiding indie developers, ensuring exceptional games from smaller teams gain visibilty in saturated market
• Focused on long-term relationships, BIP’s rev share model brings studios and creators together from early development, fostering public interest and advantageous publisher deals

March 5, 2024 | Developer representation firm Beck Interactive Partners (BIP) launches today, under the guidance of seasoned industry veteran Alex Beck. BIP aims to forge a new and unique path in the game marketing and influencer landscape by fostering authentic partnerships between innovative game developers, influential creators, and visionary publishers.

Having served as the former Director of the Loaded Games Team, the largest influencer management firm on Twitch, Beck has orchestrated over 500 creator deals, facilitated collaboration with over 50 game publishers, and has deployed over 17.5 million USD in budget for creator collaborations with game studios worldwide.

Beck’s vision involves a framework aimed at forging sustainable and reciprocal relationships between studios and influencers, with a special focus on emerging studios and games in the early stages of development. Utilizing a proprietary dataset, BIP strategically connects their studio clients with top-tier influencers. This involvement amplifies the game’s development journey, leveraging creators’ vast, dedicated audiences across social platforms. This engagement boosts public interest and enthusiasm, generating momentum as the game nears its launch.

This revenue-sharing partnership not only bolsters the game’s appeal and brings attention to the studio, but enables creators to invest in projects they are truly passionate about. This cultivates an environment that attracts great publishers, who come prepared to offer favorable deals, supporting the collective success of all parties involved. 

Through this model, BIP not only addresses the challenge of discoverability in a deeply saturated market, but throws into focus the maturation of creators, and their largely untapped potential in game marketing.   

“The influencer ecosystem has shifted,” says Beck. “It’s not the wild west anymore. A rapidly growing number of today’s creators are brand-conscious professionals seeking to be a positive force in gaming. They want to be advocates and partners, curating relationships with studios where they aren’t simply contracted to play and stream a studio’s game for short-term gain, but invest personally in its long-term success. BIP exists to facilitate these relationships, ensuring creators are foundationally matched with studio clients, so their go-to-market roadmap is paved with the best publishing agreements possible.”

While BIP can easily support the needs of established studios, Beck seeks to distinguish his firm with a mission to elevate the games of emerging indie developers with limited resources.

Concludes Beck, “With so many studio closures and games lost to cancellation in recent years, navigating our industry is already daunting. Much like the ’90s ushered in a golden era of independent movies when the film industry was struggling, I believe indie games can play a similar revitalizing role for us while our industry finds its footing, and beyond. However, for that to happen, these games need to be seen. Our goal is to ensure that the studios we represent, regardless of development team size or resources, have every opportunity for success and recognition in a crowded marketplace. We intend to be the one-stop, industry solution that ensures the next Lethal Company doesn’t slip through the cracks because there was nobody there to evangelize on its behalf.”

BIP will announce its first studio/creator partnership in the coming weeks. 

ABOUT BECK INTERACTIVE PARTNERS

Beck Interactive Partners was founded in 2023 with a mission to redefine developer representation. Using a proprietary dataset, BIP identifies emerging studio talent and connects them with world-class content creators. Utilizing their vast followings and passion to shine a light on unique games and the teams who make them, these collaborations aim to maximize the conditions for securing optimal publisher deals for go-to-market launch.

Extended gameplay and area boss “Viper” are unveiled in the next chapter of Nexon’s time-honored Dungeon & Fighter franchise

SEOUL – March 6, 2024 – Live during Xbox Partner Preview, Nexon and Neople unveiled a new official trailer for The First Berserker: Khazan, a highly anticipated single-player action RPG from the extensive universe of Dungeon & Fighter (DNF). A unique blend of Dungeon & Fighter’s anime art style and distinct combat system, The First Berserker: Khazan places emphasis on stylish combos, fast dodging, and precise parrying. The trailer introduced audiences to the unique action and darkly-atmospheric visuals of Khazan through an intense battle scene with area boss “Viper”: The First Berserker: Khazan – Gameplay Reveal | Xbox Partner Preview (youtube.com)

First teased at The Game Awards in 2023, The First Berserker: Khazan tells the story of the Great General Khazan, the ancestor of all slayers, after he was falsely accused of treason. In this hardcore action RPG, thrilling combat takes center stage with every step of Khazan’s bloody quest for vengeance against those who orchestrated his downfall, marked by a dark fantasy world, gritty, manga-inspired visuals and intense, aggressive and ever-changing styles of battle.

The new trailer follows an in-game scene set against the backdrop of the Embars region leading up to a boss encounter with “Viper.” It also highlights key battle scenes during the boss’ first and second phases, never-before-seen combat, executions and Khazan’s impactful burst attacks that ground themselves in Dungeon & Fighter’s trademark punchy, yet edgy cartoon graphics.

Alongside the new trailer, Nexon and Neople announced that they will host the second focus group test preceded by the successful first test conducted exclusively in Korea in February.

The First Berserker: Khazan will be available for PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. For more information about The First Berserker: Khazan, visit the official game website and

Kraków, Poland – Mar. 6th, 2024 – Winter Survival, the story-driven, sanity-testing sandbox survival game from developer DRAGO entertainment, braves the frigid unknown on PC via Steam Early Access today.

Brace for blistering winds in a harrowing tale of man versus nature. An adventurous hike with friends descends into a nightmare when a starving bear attacks the unsuspecting group. Separated from the troop, adapt to the ways of the wilderness, or perish at the claws of bloodthirsty beasts and merciless Mother Nature. 

Explore the barren winter wasteland and an abandoned town in search of shelter, and defend against the debilitating cold with crackling campfires. Scrounge up menial meals to keep hunger pangs at bay, and scour snowbanks for materials to craft makeshift tools. Become stronger, faster, and smarter by honing hunting skills, building sturdy structures, and fending off sickness and starvation.

Cobble together knives, spears, and traps to defend against prowling wolves, untamed boars, and the ever-ravenous bear. Stealthily maneuver behind fallen trees or rotting sheds to track roaming wildlife and avoid dangerous situations. Under unrelenting conditions like fatigue, stress, and isolation, sanity starts to fray. Treat wounds, satisfy physical needs, and keep fear at bay to protect the mind from succumbing to horrific hallucinations.

Three distinct game modes allow wilderness enthusiasts to play at any pace. Learn more about the abandoned town in Story Mode, face the ultimate test of survival skills in Endless Mode, or battle never ending blizzards in Coldwave Mode, launching one week from today.

“We are grateful to every single player that took the time to try Winter Survival’s previous demos – Steam Next Fest allowed our talented team to connect with so many amazing people,”  said Joanna Tynor, CEO at DRAGO entertainment. “Feedback throughout Early Access will help us make the wonderfully wicked winter sandbox we’ve always wanted to make, and fans have always wanted to play.” 

Winter Survival is available today on PC via Steam Early Access for $24.99 USD, with console versions planned for the future. For more information, wishlist the game on Steam and follow DRAGO entertainment on Twitter and Facebook for updates.

Sydney, Australia – 6^th March 2024 – Absolutely Games and Team17 Digital have launched WWII-based strategy epic Classified: France ‘44 on PlayStation®5, and Xbox Series X. An original take on the turn-based tactics genre, Classified: France ’44 authentically captures the challenges of World War II firefights, shining a light on a lesser known story.

Check out the trailer below:

James Brooksby, CEO, Absolutely Games, said: “The whole team at Absolutely Games are thrilled to finally share Classified: France ’44 with the world.

Our hope is that we achieved that and more – that what we created in Classified: France ’44 is an ambitious game that authentically mixes tactical stealth, intense firefights, strategic campaign, a wide range of characters, and unique mechanics for players to enjoy for years to come”.

Key Features

• Unique morale system: Every shot counts. Even if it misses, fire wears down enemy forces’ morale and can turn the tide in the heat of battle
• Tactical stealth action: Infiltrate enemy positions; set up ambushes, and choose your overwatch targets wisely. Friendly fire can shape the battlefield, so position your squad and pick your marks carefully
• Engaging and replayable campaign: Define the success of the historic ‘D-Day’ battle with a replayable campaign with 15 different endings. Form a specialist team, court the Resistance factions and aid them in building their strength, and make decisions that lead to game-changing outcomes.
• Historically authentic gameplay: Mirroring real-world military tactics, missions are a thrilling, varied experience. Use your tactical toolbox of stealth, ambush, morale and flanking to outwit the enemy and aid the Resistance.
• The Classified System: Built on the ‘Classified System’ players can access in-game tools to create their own missions to share with the community.
