Super Dragons come home to roost in Super Animal World, the Dragon’s Loot Pass will have you looking legendary, and CRISPRmas returns in the new event format

Walnut Creek, Calif. (Dec. 12, 2023) – Winter has come to Super Animal Royale and the Dragon’s Loot Update is upon us, announced Maximum Entertainment and Pixile Studios today. Six ferocious breeds of Super Dragon are ready to wreak havoc and claim their spot at the top of the food chain. Meanwhile, Super Animal World is ready to celebrate CRISPRmas beginning with the gift of a Super Icicle Deer. Come along, squire, as we continue to explore the contents of the season:

Super Animal Royale’s more than 10 million players can LARP their way to victorywith this new major update:

• The Dragon’s Loot Pass is a treasure trove of fantasy-themed cosmetics to earn, including sets like the Wizard and Ranger outfits, Penguin Palace Photo Booth scene, Coconut Canter emote and, of course, the adorable Mini Horse pet. Just… don’t try to ride it into battle.
• The Super Dragons arriveth to the fight and they hath brought guns. The long-awaited Super Dragon has been released to the Research Lab, with six distinct breeds including the Super Dragon, Super Orange Dragon, Super Forest Dragon, Super Superite Dragon, Super Ice Wyvern and Super Black Wyvern.
• This season’s Starter Pack features the Super Fairy Skullcat, Fairy Armor, Fairy Sword melee weapon and 600 SAW Tickets.
• To celebrate Super Animal Royale’s Early Access release half a decade ago, the coupon code “BIRTHDAY” gifts players the Pixile Anniversary Firework melee, Pixile Umbrella, Party Beads and Fifth Anniversary Cake Gravestone cosmetics. The new Piñata Donkey breed has also been added to the Research Lab to celebrate.
• The jolliest, most genetically modified time of year is here: CRISPRmas. This year, the event will take place over the course of three weeks, with each week unlocking new challenges and rewards to complete, just like Howloween. The event features a total of three festive new Super Animal breeds, nine new cosmetic items to earn and 20 Legacy items to unlock with the Super Edition DLC. Snowmen have been built around Thomas’ Tundra that you can smash, too.
• Several improvements to the game’s UI and player experience have been made, such as backend dynamic loading for item menus to speed up load times. Players can now find hamster balls and Giant Emus to ride around the pregame lobby, and bugs have been squashed.

Super Animal Royale is a free-to-play top-down multiplayer battle royale for up to 64 players. Players select their favorite Super Animal from a menu of foxes, pandas, kitty cats and other bloodthirsty beasts before the match begins. Then, players parachute into the ruins of an ill-fated safari park and battle to the death, in a lethal barrage of bullets, explosives and hamster balls.

Cut tall grass and loot abandoned structures in search of the guns, Super Powerups and health juice you’ll need to survive, and watch out for the poisonous Skunk Gas, slowly seeping in from the edges of the map. Super Animal Royale features carefully balanced run-and-gun gameplay combined with an intuitive fog of war system that restricts a player’s view to line of sight, allowing for sneaky, strategic play. Whether predator or prey, only one animal can reach the top of the food chain, and with guns in their paws, it’s anyone’s guess which one it’ll be.

Crime Under the Christmas Tree – Rough Justice: ’84 Releases on December 20th on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation, and Xbox

Take care of wannabe gangsters and high-tier syndicate bosses in this dark and stylish neon-noir detective management game.

12.12.2023 Düsseldorf/Hamburg – It’s time to put grody criminals behind bars! Developer Gamma Minus and publisher Daedalic Entertainment are happy to break the news that the crime thriller Rough Justice: ’84 will release on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One on December 20th. Chill out to trippy synth-wave beats this holiday season and build your detective agency to save Seneca City from its demise.

SOLVE CASES AND MANAGE YOUR DETECTIVES

Rough Justice: ’84 is an eclectic mix of strategy, neon-noir crime thriller, and gritty detective game. Take matters into your own hands and solve exciting cases and challenges that will test your mettle, from protection details and repossessions to dangerous fugitive recoveries. The addictive moment-to-moment gameplay took inspiration from tabletop board games, which shows in its use of dice, cards, and puzzles while solving cases. That’s why the developers describe Rough Justice: ’84 as “the video game adaption of a board game that doesn’t exist”.

REVEAL DARK SECRETS

Rough Justice: ’84’s surprisingly mature story takes place in a hotbed of crime and violence. You step into the shoes of ex-cop Jim Baylor to manage an up-and-coming security agency full of unique agents. While you’re cleaning criminal scum off the streets of Seneca City, you slowly realize that something more sinister is going on behind the curtains. The more you dig into the city’s underbelly, the more evident it becomes just how rotten Seneca’s entrails currently are. Controlled from the shadows by a gruesome neo-Nazi organization. This will be Jim’s most challenging case yet, especially given his family tree…

DIVE INTO A DECADE OF EXTREMES

The story of Rough Justice: ’84 touches on some of the most sensitive subjects of the 80s: a time characterized by liberation, economic growth, and the dismantlement of borders on the one hand but political extremes, toxic ideologies, and oppression on the other. In that sense, Rough Justice: ’84 is not just a game but also a passion project for the multicultural team at Gamma Minus, many of whom have had experiences with these areas. Twitch Streamer CozyGamerKat interviewed some of the developers behind Rough Justice: ’84 to show more about the thought and design process that went into the depiction of this decade.

For more information on the game, please visit Rough Justice: ’84’s official Steam Page. Additionally, we encourage you to follow Daedalic Entertainment on X (formerly Twitter) for more news on upcoming titles.

P.S. The awesome 80s synthwave soundtrack of Rough Justice: ’84 is available on all music streaming services!
