​Stitch together plans with friends, because today’s the day for online play.

​Online play comes to Sackboy: A Big Adventure today as part of a new title update.* And with it a new opportunity to experience the chaotic, slapstick multiplayer fun of Sackboy’s latest escapade.

Our goal from day one of this project was to give players an excellent single-player platforming experience. But… we wanted that experience to be even better when you shared it with your mates.  
Teamwork levels
You can play through Sackboy’s whole adventure from start to finish with up to three companions. And we have included a set of ten dedicated Teamwork Levels where you and your friends will have to work together if you want to succeed. There are two Teamwork Levels in each of the five main game worlds. In these exclusive multiplayer stages, you and your team will need to collaborate, coordinate and communicate to reach your goal. And you should expect that at some point it will go completely pear-shaped, often with hilarious consequences.

Guide, goad and grief your friends
There are a bunch of multiplayer moves with which to both assist and annoy your chums. Experiment with slapping, grabbing, and rolling into other players. Then dodge out of the way before they do the same to you. Also, a word of warning: take care when wielding the Swingamajig with other Sackfolk around. You don’t want to do anyone a disservice… do you?

As well as these fun ways to aggravate aid your companions there are also co-op emotes so you and your friends can show your appreciation for each other with hugs, high-fives and chest-bumps. You can unlock co-op emotes with collectabells or discover them in prize bubbles. Equip co-op emotes in the wardrobe at Zom Zom’s and use them by pressing the D-Pad and having your buddy stand next to you and press the D-Pad too.

Everyone’s a winner!
Levels include rewards for bronze, silver and gold high scores. In multiplayer you earn (and lose) score as a team. To score big make sure you use your x2 multipliers wisely, take out as many enemies as you can and pick up those high-value collectables. If you work together you can rack up loads of points! It’s worth it because when you hit the scoreboard everyone gets prizes.

Keep your progress
What if you spend a bunch of time playing online helping someone else on their adventure? What happens to all of those valuable, hard-earned Dreamer Orbs you’ve discovered? Fear not! When you return to your adventure your progress will be carried over to your local game, so you keep all of those hard-won orbs.

PS4/PS5 Cross-Play
This game is awesome fun in multiplayer and we wanted to make sure that as many people as possible get the opportunity to enjoy it with their friends. So we have included support for PS4/PS5 Cross-Play.*

​PS4 to PS5 save transfer
This new update isn’t just about online multiplayer, we have also included an option to transfer your PS4 adventure progress over to PS5. To do this, simply load Sackboy: A Big Adventure on PS4, select Extras in the pause menu and follow the instructions.

I hope this post has given you a good idea of the multiplayer shenanigans you can look forward to when you take Sackboy online. We’re going to continue to support the game with future updates making tweaks and improvements to give you the best possible gameplay experience.

Finally, as you may know, music plays a massive part in the Sackboy: A Big Adventure. The soundtrack really does need to be heard to be believed. And to coincide with the launch of online play we’ve put together an all-new trailer celebrating Sackboy’s love of music, dancing and dressing up.  I hope you like it and I look forward to seeing you online.

*Online multiplayer requires internet connection and PS Plus subscription; fees recur until cancelled. Age restrictions apply. Full terms: www.playstation.com/legal/ps-plus-usage-terms.

​Wonderbelly and The Quantum Astrophysicists Guild are releasing The Gift Giver Update for award-winning game 'Roundguard' just in time for the holidays!

​SEATTLE, WA - December 17, 2020 - Wonderbelly Games and The Quantum Astrophysicists Guild are bringing another free update to the award-winning roguelike puzzler Roundguard. Titled "The Gift Giver" update, it's available today for Nintendo Switch, Xbox One, and PlayStation 4. Roundguard is also backwards compatible on the next generation PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X. The update arrives just in time for the holidays, bringing a snowy new event, treasures, and three new characters.

With the Gift Giver update, three new characters have been added to the dungeon. There's the Big Freeze, an ice cold frost giant who hits like an avalanche, and the Projectionist, a moody dark elf who wants to explore your emotions. And of course, there's the eponymous Gift Giver. Players must complete his quests to prove they are worthy of the treasures hidden inside his impeccably wrapped gifts. Along with the new characters come new quests, levels, trinkets, and elite fights.

Along with the new year-round content, Roundguard will also host a special in-game event from December 20th to January 2nd full of frosty flair and festive cheer. The dungeon and all its levels will be covered in snow and denizens will be dressed for the weather. You know what that means: ugly holiday sweaters and pom-pom hats! There will also be two weeks of unique daily challenges using new winter rules: Snowballing, which turns all pots to snowballs that stick to your hero, and Icy Winds, which blast through the levels and blow your hero around.

"We've started on a new playable hero, but it will take a lot more work to get them finished, tuned, and polished up," said Andrea Roberts of Wonderbelly Games. "In the meantime, we wanted to get something out there to give players new goals and more variety. And of course, we love events! We had a blast putting together a week of costumes and spooky challenges for our Tricks & Treats Halloween event, and we wanted to go even bigger for wintertime. We all need whatever little joys we can get right now!"

The Gift Giver update marks the third free content update that Wonderbelly Games has released this year. Roundguard has been nominated for several prestigious awards, including Games Radar's "Mobile Game of the Year" and DevGAMM's "Excellence in Game Design." With a new playable hero on the horizon, Roundguard is set to keep growing bigger, better, and bouncier in the new year.
- Limited time Winter event
- Snowballs, Icy Winds, and new Costumes!
- New characters: The Big Freeze, The Projectionist, and The Gift Giver
- Unique Daily Challenges with new rules!

Roundguard is rated ESRB 10+/PEGI 7 and is available for $19.99 USD.

Retrieve your life back through a new magical adventure in a fantasy RPG

December 16, 2020 - KEMCO proudly announces the release of Wizards of Brandel for PlayStation®4 set to hit the European/Australian PlayStation®Store today. Standard price is EUR 14.99, but PS Plus users will receive a special 20% OFF discount during the first two weeks! For more information, please visit each storefront.

​Story
The main character loses his house after he fails to make a loan repayment, and ends up living for free in the house of a wanted sorcerer! He meets a swordswoman who has absolutely no sense of direction, and a young demon girl who shrivels up immediately if she doesn't drink enough water. Fate decrees that they end up traveling together. Different beliefs, and different ideas of what is right... Where will the quarrels over differing principles lead to? This is a brand new fantasy RPG that'll take you on a rollercoaster of emotions!

Many different Familiar Spirits
There are many different Familiar Spirits, who can support you in battles. They have various abilities, and also different appearances. Some of them might be a bit strange, and some of them you might already be familiar with!

Make the most of Limit Burst!
By using Limit Burst, you can keep your turn going during battles. Unleash Limit Burst at the perfect time to launch a concentrated attack, or use continuous recovery to bring fallen comrades back to life. Depending on where it's used, Limit Burst can make a huge difference to the flow of battle. It all depends on finding the ideal time to use it!

Battle speed and enemy encounters can be changed freely
Battle speed can be changed freely between normal speed and 3x speed, and enemy encounters can be changed between none and 3x normal. Change the settings to suit the circumstances and your playing style: maybe you want to move through battles quickly or go through dungeons without encounters, or on the other hand, maybe you want to battle monsters to collect items, and raise your level. Of course, there are all the features and achievements you know and love, such as weapon strengthening, item crafting, catalogs, and the Arena!

​Featuring a new island Heist location, new nightclub, three new radio stations, and the ability to play solo for the first time

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Rockstar Games® is proud to announce that Grand Theft Auto Online’s biggest update yet, The Cayo Perico Heist is now available to download free for all players on Playstation 4, Xbox One X, PC and on Playstation 5 and Xbox Series X|S via backward compatibility.

“The Cayo Perico Heist is our way of getting everyone together to party and dance in the safest possible way while also giving players the chance to take on our biggest and best Heist yet,” said Sam Houser, Founder of Rockstar Games. “It’s been a difficult and challenging year, and we wanted to make something everyone could have some fun in – we’re really excited for you to play.”

The Madrazo crime family have a problem with one of their suppliers – the infamous drug lord, El Rubio, who is threatening extortion unless they renegotiate their terms. Now, it’s up to players to find a way to infiltrate El Rubio’s heavily secured private island home of Cayo Perico, and escape with his incriminating files, and all the gold, art and cash as they can carry – all while making it back to Los Santos in one piece.
From lush jungle reconnaissance to dance parties on golden beaches, The Cayo Perico Heist is an all-new GTA Online adventure in which players can choose to assemble a crew of up to four - or for the first time, plan, prepare, and execute the daring island heist all on their own.

Alongside the launch of The Cayo Perico Heist, GTA Online introduces a new underground nightclub open to all players called The Music Locker. Evolving concepts first introduced in GTA Online: After Hours, The Music Locker offers players a unique social space to party and dance with other players featuring performances from world-class DJs Moodymann, Keinemusik and Palms Trax.

Building on the game’s reputation for supporting underground culture and also as a platform for music discovery, The Cayo Perico Heist will also feature three new radio stations: Still Slipping Los Santos from UK DJ Joy Orbison; Kult FM hosted by Julian Casablancas of The Strokes and The Voidz featuring Mac DeMarco, David Cross and Tony Mac; and Music Locker Radio, bringing the club sounds of Moodymann, Keinemusik and Palms Trax to the airwaves of Los Santos. The Cayo Perico Heist also features major updates to existing stations, Worldwide FM with Gilles Peterson and FlyLo FM from Flying Lotus for a total of 250+ new tracks.

The Cayo Perico Heist also introduces an array of exciting new weapons and vehicles including a new heavily armed Submarine, plus a host of new updates across the entire world.
Like all GTA Online updates, access to The Cayo Perico Heist is free with every copy of Grand Theft Auto V.

Attention Passengers: Hilarious Co-Op Time Management Flight Attendant Simulator Shakes on a Plane Now Available for PC and Nintendo Switch 

WIESBADEN, GERMANY 15th December, 2020 — Publisher Assemble Entertainment, most famous for the notorious point-and-click adventure game Leisure Suit Larry - Wet Dreams Don’t Dry, and developer Huu Games are thrilled to announce today that Shakes on a Plane is now available on Windows PC via Steam and Nintendo Switch. Taking inspiration from popular titles like Overcooked and Unrailed, Shakes on a Plane puts players in the precarious position of providing a timely, relaxing, culinary experience at 30,000 feet to a host of hungry and impatient passengers before the plane reaches its destination. Of course, things are never as easy as they seem, so grab a crew, clear your schedules, and make sure to arrive at least three hours early. Shakes on a Plane is available for £12.99 GBP on PC with a 20% launch discount and £17.99 GBP on Nintendo Switch with a 30% launch discount.
“Shakes on a Plane takes the wit, humour, and simple fun that Assemble titles are known for and adds some surprisingly intense and chaotic multiplayer action,” said Assemble Entertainment CEO Stefan Marcinek. “It’s a goofy and colorful game built on a rock-solid platform that fans of the genre will certainly enjoy.”

Have you always dreamed of a life in the clouds, jet setting from exotic locale to exotic locale, and enjoying the finest international cuisine? Well, how about just the jet setting part, and instead of enjoying fine cuisine you’re instead serving burgers and shakes to a group of impatient, hangry passengers all crammed together in a metal box thousands of feet in the air? Shakes on a Plane tasks you and up to three friends with providing a satisfying airborne culinary experience in a chaotic environment with simple, easy-to-use controls and deceptively tactical gameplay. Coordination, delegation, and teamwork will propel-ler you to victory and ensure a five-star rating on the “How Was Your Flight Today” survey. And if the passengers get too sassy you can always para-drop them out the airlock — trust us, it’s standard procedure for all airlines.

Additional Features Include: 
  • Flying is Fun...Right?: Crying babies, obnoxious drunks, impatient business class fliers...It’s not your job to pick the passengers, but it is your job to keep them satisfied with delicious treats and tasty beverages

  • Teamwork Makes the Dream Work: Grab up to three other players to build your ideal team of talented flight attendants, but don’t forget that you’re locked with them inside a narrow metal tube at 30,000 feet — coordination, cooperation, and patience are the keys to a successful flight

  • I Didn’t Order the Fish: Attention to detail is vital to keeping your impatient passengers sated with enough fast food to hopefully put them to sleep for the remainder of the flight. Make sure you get the right order to the right person, on time, or the cabin might get a tad unpleasant…
​
  • Putting the F in First Class...And UFO: Don’t get too comfortable...each plane has a different layout, forcing players to adapt on the “fly” and perfectly plan their food delivery path

Shakes on a Plane is now available for Windows PC via Steam for £12.99 GBP with a 20% launch discount and Nintendo Switch via the eShop for £17.99 GBP with a 30% launch discount.

​New co-op/PvP multiplayer video game based on the “Evil Dead” franchise coming from Saber Interactive and Boss Team Games

​FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. -- Dec. 10, 2020 -- At The Game Awards this evening, Saber Interactive and Boss Team Games revealed Evil Dead: The Game, an upcoming co-op and PvP multiplayer title in development for PC, PlayStation®5, PlayStation®4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch.

For the first time ever, the Evil Dead universe comes together in one over-the-top experience starring boomstick-brandishing, chainsaw-wielding horror hero Ashley J. Williams. Boss Team Games has entered into an epic collaboration with Renaissance Pictures, STUDIOCANAL, leading entertainment company Metro Goldwyn Mayer (MGM), and global content leader Lionsgate (NYSE: LGF.A, LGF.B) to create this one-of-a-kind game.

Based on the "Evil Dead" franchise and characters created by Sam Raimi, Robert Tapert, and Bruce Campbell, the game casts players against the forces of evil that have been unleashed from the Necronomicon Ex-Mortis, with sights and sounds inspired by the films "The Evil Dead,” “Evil Dead II: Dead by Dawn,” and “Army of Darkness,” as well as the STARZ original “Ash vs Evil Dead” television series.
Work together as a team of four survivors, exploring, looting, crafting, managing your fear, and finding key artifacts to seal the breach between worlds. Or take control of the powerful Kandarian Demon to hunt Ash and his friends while possessing Deadites, the environment, and even the survivors themselves as you seek to swallow their souls!

Plenty of surprises await in this gore-filled battle against evil that captures the characters, horror, humor, and action from the franchise. Battle across memorable locations including the infamous cabin in the woods, brought to life with tons of terrifying visuals and all-new dialogue from Bruce Campbell. Discover more than 25 weapons, including Ash’s Gauntlet, Boomstick, and chainsaw, and advance in a variety of skill trees to grow stronger and survive in this fun co-op and PvP experience.

"I’m excited to be strapping on the chainsaw one more time,” said Bruce Campbell, who has given life to Ashley J. Williams across multiple films and the recent STARZ original “Ash vs Evil Dead” television series. “Boss Team and Saber Interactive are planning a huge immersive dealio, and I knew I had to come back. You’ll be able to step into my shoes and kick some Deadite ass!”

​Trailer introduces new monsters new area and more, Demo coming In January 2021

LONDON – Dec. 11, 2020 – Today at The Game Awards 2020, Capcom revealed a brand new trailer for Monster Hunter Rise, the upcoming entry in the award-winning and top-selling Monster Hunter action RPG series. The video showcases two new monsters, several returning monsters and a new area for players to explore. The new trailer also reveals an early look at the mysterious “Rampage” events that threaten Kamura Village, the game’s primary location. Also announced during the event, a free Monster Hunter Rise demo will be released for the Nintendo Switch™ system in January 2021, prior to the worldwide launch of the full game on March 26, 2021.

Revealed today, two entirely new monsters will be making their Monster Hunter debuts in Monster Hunter Rise. The trickster Bishaten arrives as a unique new threat with its distinctive tail and fondness for persimmons, which it stores in his stomach and hurls at its prey. Adding to its offensive arsenal, Bishaten is also equipped with multiple tail attack options and powerful spin moves that will require hunters to stay on their toes or risk getting swept off their feet. Also new to the line-up, Somnacanth is an intoxicating aquatic leviathan that can expel sleep powder to temporarily stun opponents, leaving them open for attacks.

The latest trailer also includes sightings of the scaly leviathan Royal Ludroth and the poisonous birdlike Great Wroggi, both of which are returning to join the growing roster of foes in Monster Hunter Rise. In addition to the previously announced Shrine Ruins hunting grounds, the new Flooded Forest area will provide players the opportunity to explore and battle fierce monsters in this overgrown and water-logged setting.

The puzzling “Rampage” events that threaten Kamura Village and its denizens were also featured in the trailer, as it appears residents and Monster Hunter Rise players will need to build up their defenses and prepare for the battle of their lifetimes. More information regarding the “Rampage” will be revealed in the months ahead.

A demo for Monster Hunter Rise on Nintendo Switch was announced today and will release worldwide in January 2021. The free demo will provide hunters their first opportunity to try out the inventive set of new tools in the game, including the debut of the Wirebug mechanic and Palamute companion, which can both be used to track down and defeat threatening monsters in new ways. More specifics on this demo, including release timing, will be announced soon.
About Monster Hunter Rise

Monster Hunter Rise is an action RPG that will transport players to the colorful Kamura Village, which attracts visitors with its unique culture and innovative hunting technologies. After hunters equip their armor and select from one of the various weapon types, all-new hunting grounds await, including the ancient Shrine Ruins and more. The debut of the new “Wirebug” mechanic allows for wire-based grappling actions that can be used to scale cliffs and other hard-to-reach areas, providing new traversal and aerial attack options.

Monster Hunter Rise will also debut new hunting partners called Palamutes, personalized and rideable “Canyne” companions that will provide players with a new set of attack options, while “Felyne” Palicoes will return as support characters for actions like healing. As players defeat monsters and progress through the game, items from fallen foes can be used to craft unique weapons and armor that will increase their chances of future success and survival. Hunters can tackle these challenges solo, or with up to three other players in local or cooperative online play, while also taking advantage of the versatility of the Nintendo Switch system, which allows for hunting anywhere, anytime and with anyone!

In addition to the Standard Edition (physical and digital) of Monster Hunter Rise, a special digital Deluxe Edition will include the Standard Edition of the game, as well as a digital DLC pack voucher that can be redeemed for bonus in-game content such as a “Kamurai” full layered armor set, exclusive gestures, cosmetic items and more.

Coming to Nintendo Switch in early 2021

LONDON – Dec. 11, 2020 – Today at The Game Awards 2020, Capcom announced Ghosts ‘n Goblins Resurrection and Capcom Arcade Stadium, two new titles for the Nintendo Switch™ system that pay homage to some of Capcom’s most revered arcade classics. Providing a modern take on a beloved franchise, Ghosts ‘n Goblins Resurrection will bring a haunting new adventure to life starting February 25, 2021, when it releases digitally across North America and Europe on Nintendo Switch. For old-school fans and arcade novices alike, Capcom Arcade Stadium will usher 32 classic Capcom titles out of arcade machines and onto Nintendo Switch™ when it releases digitally in February 2021. More information on Capcom Arcade Stadium will be announced at a later date.
About Ghosts ‘n Goblins Resurrection:

The legendary platforming series rises again, as Ghosts ‘n Goblins Resurrection marks the heroic return of the series, which debuted over 35 years ago. Paying homage to Ghosts ‘n Goblins and Ghouls ‘n Ghosts, the latest entry combines the franchise’s action platforming gameplay with storybook-like graphics and challenging new obstacles. The new entry will once again follow the valiant knight Arthur as he runs, jumps and battles his way through eerie stages set in the Demon Realm, a demonic fantasy world. Arthur must overcome countless ghoulish foes on his quest to rescue the princess from the treacherous grasp of the Demon Lord. Brave knights will need to proceed with extreme caution as terrifying dangers await, including familiar enemies like Zombie, Skeleton Murderer, Pigman and Red Arremer.

Whether a longtime Ghosts ‘n Goblins fan or a newcomer, Ghosts ‘n Goblins Resurrection players can decide how perilous Arthur’s journey will be by selecting one of three different difficulties: Squire, Knight and Legend. New to Ghosts ‘n Goblins Resurrection is the Page mode, which allows untested apprentices to respawn on the spot with unlimited lives. To progress through the Demon Realm, Arthur must utilize everything at his disposal, from tried-and-true weapons like the Lance and Dagger to all-new additions like the Hammer and Spiked Ball. Arthur’s updated arsenal also includes various types of skills and magic, allowing players to bring game-changing spells like Firewall and Thunderstorm into combat. Arthur will need to master each of the weapon types and magic abilities to overcome his battle against evil and restore peace to the land.
About Capcom Arcade Stadium:

Capcom Arcade Stadium will allow players to bring home the electrifying thrill of an arcade with 32 action-packed classics, which includes a free download of 1943 - The Battle of Midway - and the original Ghosts ‘n Goblins as a stand-alone add-on. Retro fans can then choose to purchase up to three different arcade packs that highlight a different era of Capcom arcade goodness, from ‘80s classics like BIONIC COMMANDO and STRIDER to ‘90s favorites like SUPER STREET FIGHTER II TURBO. Players can also purchase the all-in pack containing all three packs of 10 games in addition to the Ghost ‘n Goblins stand-alone add-on for maximum retro nostalgia. This must-have collection will include (up to four-player) local multiplayer for the games that support it. Additionally, each title comes with a variety of options that can be adjusted such as Game Speed, Difficulty Level, Display Settings, Display Filters and various frames including a variety of 3D-rendered arcade cabinets. Each game also comes with a Rewind feature, allowing players to jump back in time to save themselves (or a friend) from any unforeseen dangers.

Includes literally thousands of procedurally-generated stages of meat mushing mayhem

Redmond, Washington, December 10th, 2020 - Team Meat is proud to reveal that it’s long, long awaited sequel to 2010’s runaway platforming hit Super Meat Boy is finally nigh! That’s right, Super Meat Boy Forever is coming for us all on the Epic Games Store on December 23rd, where it will cost $19.99, though there is a 10% pre-order discount bringing it to $17.99. It’s a holiday miracle!

This much anticipated sequel also moves the Meat Boy saga forward, as Meat Boy and his partner Bandage Girl have had a child, Nugget, who has unfortunately been kidnapped by the sinister stillborn psychopath, Dr. Fetus (I hate that guy!). So now it’s up to Meat Boy, Bandage Girl, and some surprising new characters in the Meat Boy Cinematic Universe, to rescue the kidnapped child.

In the time since we saw him last, Meat Boy has been hitting the gym and he now packs a punch with an oversized, Battletoads-esque right fist that packs a mean whollup! Combined with new slide and plummet maneuvers, Meat Boy is more agile than ever!

What’s better than playing through Super Meat Boy Forever once? The answer is simple: Playing through Super Meat Boy Forever several times and having new levels to play each time! Levels are randomly generated and each time the game is completed the option to replay the game appears and generates a whole new experience by presenting different levels with their own unique secret locations. We’ve handcrafted literally thousands of levels for players to enjoy and conquer. You can replay Super Meat Boy Forever from start to finish several times before ever seeing a duplicate level. It is truly a remarkable feat of engineering and a monumental example of ignoring the limits of rational game design and production.
“Super Meat Boy was a massive success that changed my life forever and people had been clamoring for a sequel for ages,” said Team Meat co-founder and programmer Tommy Refenes. “But I didn’t just want to deliver more of the same and call it a day. Meat Boy deserved more than that. I wanted to rebuild Meat Boy from the ground up, in a way that would offer an entirely new experience that still hits all the same kinetic, addictive notes as its predecessor. I know Super Meat Boy Forever took forever to make but we’re confident that it was worth the wait.”

About Meat Boy
​
Meat Boy took the world by storm in 2008 when it was conceived as a free Flash game by developers Edmund McMillen and Jonathan McEntee. This devilishly difficult love letter to arcade platformers went so viral that over 8 million people played it. Due to its popularity, Team Meat founders Edmund McMillen and Tommy Refenes collaborated on a commercial successor that became the 2010 megahit Super Meat Boy, which went on to sell over a million copies in its first 15 months. A decade later, Super Meat Boy is still capturing the populace’s imagination as its Switch port’s launch sales nearly matched that of its 2010 debut on Xbox 360. The franchise’s latest project, Super Meat Boy Forever, is coming to Epic Games Store on December 23rd, 2020.

Coming Soon to Xbox Game Pass for PC

One of the biggest gaming hits of 2020 is coming to Xbox Game Pass for PC, as we’re excited to announce that InnerSloth’s Among Us will be coming to the service soon.

Need a primer on a game that’s been dominating the world with over half a billion players? We got you. Among Us is an online, 4-10 multiplayer game that has you and your friends attempting to prepare your spaceship for departure. Work together and complete your tasks quickly but beware… there may be impostors aboard!

That’s right, there’s a twist: One (or more?!) of your crewmates has been replaced by a dangerous impostor who wants to eliminate the rest of the crew before the ship reaches home. Whether it’s sneaking through vents, sabotaging the ship, or even secretly killing off members of the crew, it seems you can’t trust just anyone in your group. Call an emergency meeting if you suspect something, but the Impostor can easily frame other players too…

 Among Us is all about communication, teamwork, betrayal, and deceit. While everyone is fixing up the ship, no one can talk. However, once a body is reported or a meeting is called, the surviving crew will openly debate who they think The Impostor is. Meanwhile, The Impostor’s goal is to pretend they are a member of the crew and blame someone else. If The Impostor is not voted off, everyone goes back to maintaining the ship until another meeting is called. If The Impostor is voted off, the crew wins!

We’ll have more to share on Among Us coming to Xbox Game Pass for PC.

​The battle rages on with a new map – Deadly Dockyard – along with a debut for The Lab, free Christmas cosmetics, and additional downloadable content readying for launch, as the real-time action shooter teases a look ahead into 2021.

Thursday, 10th December 2020 – Team17 has unveiled a new arena for the recently released 32-player Worms Rumble, as part of a bumper free content for the game next Thursday (17th). The new arena, Deadly Dockyard, will see players battle it out in a bustling shipyard packed with shipping containers, cranes, and boats launching from the docks, altering the environment as the action plays out! New Christmas themed cosmetics will also be released as part of the free update, alongside a selection of new premium skins and items. But before that comes today’s debut for The Lab, time-limited game modes that will test even the most adept worm.
Lock and load, because the Deadly Dockyard awaits in this new trailer:
Deadly Dockyard is the start of Worms Rumble’s post-launch support, with a roadmap of content through to the end of March 2021 being teased, including additional maps, modes, and more. Starting today, Worms Rumble will receive regular, time limited game modes in The Lab. Whenever the doors of The Lab open, players can take part in ‘experimental’ matches and unlock exclusive in-game cosmetic rewards. The first, Pistols at Dawn, equips each worm with a hand cannon capable of instantly killing an opponent, and is so powerful that it can only hold a single shot in the clip! Worms taking part during the 48-hour event will secure a Gold Worm Skin. The Lab is open from 3pm GMT today until 3pm GMT on Saturday 12th December.
​
To celebrate the Holiday season, a selection of free Christmas cosmetics will be available to Worms Rumble players, alongside with two new premium outfits befitting the new map. The premium outfits allow players to either set sail as the Sea Captain or sink their teeth into Shark attire. Weapons are also getting fresh looks, celebrating the hugely popular Worms Armageddon with skins that reproduce terrain like Cheese, Forest, and Manhattan from the fan favourite classic entry, as well as more eccentric emotes, including Goodbye, Selfie, Make It Rain, and Kick Ups.
 
During December, Worms Rumble is available on PlayStation®5 and PlayStation 4 for free as part of PlayStation Plus. The standard edition of Worms Rumble is now available on Steam for £10.99/$14.99/€14.99 and on the Team17 Store with a 17% off price reduction (using promo code TEAM17) as part of Team17’s 30th anniversary celebrations. To keep up to date with Worms Rumble please like us on Facebook, follow us on Twitter, and join us on Discord.

​With thanks to Team 17 for the email

​Wands at the ready!

Niantic and Warner Bros. Games are unleashing iconic villains and foes from the Wizarding World in Harry Potter: Wizards Unite with the game’s expansive new Adversaries update.
 
In the biggest feature release of the year, Adversaries is an all-new way for witches and wizards to face off against powerful enemies in the real-world and build up the power and skills to duel some of the most iconic villains from the franchise. Each monthly update will feature new challenges and increasingly powerful foes to battle against, including Slytherin’s Basilisk, Fenrir Greyback, Draco Malfoy, Bellatrix Lestrange and more. Players will receive a variety of rewards including Wizarding XP, Challenge XP, a chance at Defence Against the Dark Arts Books and more based on how many villains they defeat to continue growing their powers in Harry Potter: Wizards Unite.
 
Additionally, players will have access to Adversaries Registry pages with over 75 new collectibles, even more combat lessons to improve Professions skills and further rewards to advance in SOS Training lessons. 
 
Assets surrounding the Adversaries update can be found via the link below the headline. More information about the feature can be found in the blog below and on the official website here.
Duel the Most Iconic Villains and Foes of the Wizarding World
 
Witches and Wizards,
 
Something wicked this way comes as Dark wizards and villains descend upon Harry Potter: Wizards Unite. Ready your wands and prepare to duel some of the most iconic foes of the wizarding world in a new kind of magical combat.
 
“Adversaries” are a new type of encounter where you face off in battle against a chain of increasingly difficult foes. If you’re successful in battling your way to the final opponent, you’ll find yourself pitted against some of the most fearsome villains and creatures known to the wizarding world – Slytherin’s Basilisk, Fenrir Greyback, Draco Malfoy, Bellatrix Lestrange and others have all been rumoured to be amongst their ranks. Knowing the company these nefarious characters keep, whispers have circulated of a possible sighting of a certain Dark wizard whose name we dare not speak.
 
If you’re confident in your combat skills and are ready to dive into the fray, you can find Adversaries on the Map or during brand-new Adversaries Events. When you see the Adversaries icon, inspired by the Dark Mark, on the Map, simply tap on it to enter into battle, but make sure you’re ready before engaging in combat. Adversary battles aren’t for the faint of heart; while you regain health after defeating each opponent, if you lose at any point during the string of battles, or choose to exit during a fight, the chain is broken and the entire encounter is over.
 
As you defeat individual villains as part of the chain of battles, you’ll receive incremental rewards, culminating in a large cluster of rewards if you’re successful in finishing off the final Adversary. These rewards include Wizarding XP, Challenge XP, a chance at Defense Against the Dark Arts Books and more. Adversaries and their enemy attendants drop Fragments of Adversary Objects when defeated. These Fragments are listed on the new Adversaries Registry Pages in the Challenges section of the Registry. Placing these Objects in the Registry also grants you rewards such as Challenge XP and Defense Against the Dark Arts Books.
 
Adversaries fall into two classes: Feared and Lethal.
 
Feared Adversaries can occur randomly on the Map or during Adversaries Events and include Foes such as Peter Pettigrew and Draco Malfoy, which have fewer, less-difficult enemies to defeat before reaching them. Feared Adversaries are indicated by an Adversaries trace marker; these Adversaries, while more common, are not to be taken lightly.

Lethal Adversaries include the likes of Dolores Umbridge and Bellatrix Lestrange and have a greater number of more challenging enemies to defeat before reaching them. Lethal Adversaries are indicated by a more intricate Adversaries trace marker and are truly some of the most terrifying and powerful opponents you can encounter. Unlike Feared Adversaries, Lethal Adversaries can only initially be encountered during certain, special monthly Adversaries Events. Although the challenge may be enticing, Lethal Adversaries will not be immediately available, and will gradually be introduced into the game, with later events introducing stronger, more formidable villains.

A new consumable item, the Edible Dark Mark, will allow you to spawn Feared Adversaries, and Lethal Adversaries once they have been introduced, on the map, should you invite the challenge.
 
To stand a fighting chance against the more powerful Adversaries, you’ll need to reach Level 15 and make sure you’ve properly invested in your Combat Profession. After completing any single Profession tree, a new Lesson Plan will be made available to you. In order to be able to defeat both Feared and Lethal Adversaries, you’ll want to master some of these new skills first. In addition to honing your combat abilities, you’ll want to strategically utilize a variety of Potions and develop your Potion skills in SOS Training as well. Healing Potions, Exstimulo Potions and Wit-Sharpening Potions can all be used to give you an edge in combat against Adversaries, especially with Exstimulo and Wit-Sharpening Potions stacked together. You’ll need every boost you can get to face these fearsome opponents and prevail to tell the tale! 
 
Do you think you have what it takes to take on these all-powerful antagonists? The arrival of Adversaries in Harry Potter: Wizards Unite is imminent, so stay tuned for the latest updates! 
 
Don’t forget to join the social conversation with #WizardsUnite, make sure to follow along on our official Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram channels for the latest updates, and head over to the Harry Potter: Wizards Unite Community Forums to discuss the game with fellow players!

Next year marks both Pokémon’s anniversary and Pokémon GO’s fifth anniversary! To celebrate, we’re excited to announce a virtual, ticketed event that Trainers all around the globe will be able to take part in.
No matter where you are in the world, take a trip back to the region where it all started: Kanto.

Pokémon GO Tour: Kanto

Experience the wonder of the games that sparked a global phenomenon! In the ticketed version of this event, you’ll choose between the Red Version or Green Version of the event experience, each featuring version-exclusive Pokémon. Complete event-exclusive Special Research, and test your Pokémon-collection skills. Trading with a friend who chose the other version will be important, just like it was in Pokémon Red and Pokémon Green! Can you collect all 150 original Pokémon in one day?
We’re also excited to announce that during the Pokémon GO Tour: Kanto event, the first 150 Pokémon originally discovered in the Kanto region will be available as Shiny Pokémon, some of them for the first time ever.

That’s not all—after completing the Pokémon GO Tour: Kanto Special Research, Trainers will receive a second event-exclusive Special Research line. Overcoming difficult challenges and daunting tasks will be required to complete it, but it’ll all be worth it to discover Shiny Mew.
Tickets for Pokémon GO Tour: Kanto are available in the in-app shop now! And if you purchase a Pokémon GO Tour: Kanto ticket by a certain date, you’ll also receive tickets for the Special Research stories for the January and February Community Day events!

An aquarium Tamagotchi

There was no need to wait long for the first recording of the Fishkeeper game. The Underwater Sims or the Aquarium Tamagotchi, as the creators of Blinkclick Games in Cracow like to talk about their game, is a peculiar combination of economic strategy and life simulator. In the game, we play the role of an aquarist taking care of the fish in a tank built with our own hands.
The presented gameplay shows you how to build an aquarium. We can see how to, step by step, buy our first tank, enlarge and decorate it, buy equipment, substrate, plants and corals so that the fish can finally live there. The gameplay is accompanied by relaxing ambient sounds and calm music as well as a commentary by the artist, who draws attention to the numerous relationships between aquarium elements and the organisms living in it.

Only a few weeks have passed since the game was announced, so it’s important to note that we’re still watching an early version of the game — the pre-alpha. The creators intend to share their work progress by demonstrating further aspects of the game’s mechanics. At the moment, we know that the life of organisms in the aquarium (in addition to fish, corals, snails and shrimps will also be available) will be realistically reproduced. The player will be able to multiply and sell his fish, and the cash earned will be used to expand the aquarium kingdom. In addition, you can visit the tank in your self-designed bathyscale, i.e. an “underwater drone”.

The planned date of its premiere on PC is the end of next year. Meanwhile, you can add the game to your Steam Wishlist, which the creators kindly request.

With thanks to BlinkClick Games for the email via Superindie games for the email
