<p class="">Hello, today we’re very excited to bring you our next seasonal update, a limited time expedition called Singularity. This is a big one, part expedition and part update with a ton of new content, story, gameplay and some of our most exciting rewards.</p>
<p class="">The last few months have been very busy for No Man’s Sky. We opened the year with Fractal, bringing PS VR2 support and much more. Six weeks later we launched Interceptor, which brought the first hints of a broader narrative playing out in the No Man’s Sky universe.</p>
<a href="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52945676677_53bdcc29bc_h.jpg" rel="noopener" target="_blank"><img alt="" height="1080" src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52945676677_53bdcc29bc_h.jpg" width="1920"/></a>
<p class="">Singularity delivers a story and challenge which is chapter two of a four part narrative which will play out across this year.</p>
<p class="">Singularity starts with players across all systems on the same planet as they set out to investigate curious robot heads that have been delivering cryptic clues across the galaxy.</p>
<a href="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52945676632_8de61db526_h.jpg" rel="noopener" target="_blank"><img alt="" height="1080" src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52945676632_8de61db526_h.jpg" width="1920"/></a>
<p class="">We want to keep the mystery, but this is a story about AI corruption, robotic uprisings and strong hints of what’s to come in No Man’s Sky.</p>
<p class="">Throughout the five week long expedition, the whole community will be working with Nada and Polo on the space anomaly can try to breathe new life into the galaxy, and work together for some exciting rewards.</p>

<p class="">The expedition concludes with the player having to make a choice which will have far-reaching consequences…</p>
<p class="">On top of all this there are even more strange clues to decipher that hint at a deeper story to come!</p>
<p class="">As with all No Man’s Sky expeditions, Singularity comes with a large number of rewards and souvenirs which can be redeemed across all saves, including our first new full customisation set in years for your main character – an impressive robot suit.</p>
<p class="">Our journey continues.</p>

<p class="">Synapse’s State of Play reveal <a href="https://blog.playstation.com/2023/02/23/synapse-brings-dual-wielding-vr-action-exclusively-to-ps-vr2-this-year/">illustrated</a> a potent combo of sidearm and telekinetic-infused combat. Last month at PlayStation Showcase, developer nDreams <a href="https://blog.playstation.com/2023/05/24/immersive-ps-vr2-action-shooter-synapse-launches-on-july-%EF%BF%BC/">used the release date announcement</a> to dig into the story of a lone operative diving into another’s mind to avert global catastrophe, and the reunion of two high-caliber voice talents who find themselves again involved in a black ops-style mission, but this time on different sides of a battlefield. And now, thanks to a hands-on with a specially-curated playable demo, we have a better understanding of how Synapse gameplay unfolds.</p>
<p class="">Let’s break down the core gameplay loop. It’s driven by tactical combat, using your base abilities of bullets and TK plus interactive objects to clear out multi-leveled arenas of enemies. Those encounters are punchy bursts of action which increase in complexity and intensity. You’re outnumbered, continually outflanked, attackers able to short-range teleport to better position themselves. The odds are put back in your favor through steadily unlocked abilities and randomized buffs, all tools built to nudge you into being as enjoyably, efficiently creative with your skills as possible. Synapse has the DNA of a roguelite.</p>
<p class="">Let’s dig deeper. A run will have you fight a growing mix of enemy types across multiple levels, the sequencing of those stages randomized and pulled from a large pool of potential locations. Completion of any opens a door to the next, at the threshold of which you’re offered one of two possible two Traits. These add fun modifiers for the rest of your run. Clutch an object with TK to kick in slo-mo. Add a curve to your bullets. Turn TK-grabbed foes into short-term friendlies or targets for other assailants to draw fire away from you. </p>
<p class="center"><img alt="" height="1080" src="https://media4.giphy.com/media/v1.Y2lkPTc5MGI3NjExNGNhMjE2MzhhM2ZhZGM3MmM4NjgwMzhhYWQyMjAwOWEwZjY4OTQwMSZlcD12MV9pbnRlcm5hbF9naWZzX2dpZklkJmN0PWc/GQj6T1BjFy9ag6ECpV/giphy.gif" width="1920"/></p>
<p class="has-text-align-center"><em>Synapse’s mini-map is thoughtfully executed. Flip your TK hand palm up for a radial-style device to materialize upon it. A 3D space floats above it, pinpoints enemy locations and collectables. It’s an interaction with the same simple satisfaction – and muscle memory – as checking your watch for notifications.</em></p>
<p class="">Revelations is Synapse’s name for permanent upgrades split across three skill trees, for your TK, weapons and general resilience respectively. These trees are available between runs and will grant you, amongst others, the ability to grab enemies (and toss them around like rag-dolls) or their grenades (catching them mid-throw), increase your weapon loadout. You can activate Shrines that’ll spawn within levels, granting you a health boost or new weapons.</p>
<p class="">All are unlocked and used during my hands-on, early access granted thanks to a generous dose of XP (called Defiance in Synpase) for the purposes of the demo. But before I step into several arenas to play around with my powers, I need to learn how the core mechanics work. Cue tutorial and the base mechanics.</p>
<p class="">Movement is an uncompromised first-person shooter, character movement and camera operated by the Sense controller sticks, with comfort settings also offered. You can also pick which of your hands does what. Gun hand is</p>
<p class="">is self-explanatory but doesn’t work in isolation: guns need to be reloaded by way of partially ejecting them then slamming magazines back into position. You <em>can</em> use your other hand. Or any solid surface, which includes cover points and an enemy’s noggin. Reloads continue to feel satisfying throughout the run.</p>
<p class="">Your <em>other</em> hand is where multitasking takes off. It can be used to grab cover, your Sense controller movement mirrored in-game to pull you out, up or to the side of whatever you’re ducking behind. As long as you’ve got your finger pulled down on the Sense controller trigger, you’re anchored. It’s a design brought over from nDreams’ previous PS VR title Fracked. A nice feature that gives you mobility options while stationary.</p>
<p class="center"><img alt="" height="1080" src="https://media3.giphy.com/media/v1.Y2lkPTc5MGI3NjExN2I0Mjc4M2FhMThhOGNmZmUxMDFkZDFmM2M0MDUwZWU5OTFmZDM1ZCZlcD12MV9pbnRlcm5hbF9naWZzX2dpZklkJmN0PWc/BaRdsnHPyrAuK2KU0I/giphy.gif" width="1920"/></p>
<p class="has-text-align-center"><em>The game’s music is being scored by Paul Weir, who also composed No Man’s Sky. The direction he was tasked to draw inspiration from was the cerebral blockbuster movies of Christopher Nolan, lending a Zimmer-like soundtrack to Synapse.</em></p>
<p class="">It’s this hand, along with PS VR2’s eye-tracking, that powers TK. You learn very quickly what is interactive in Synapse: crates, platforms (and later, enemies and their grenades). In a world that’s wholly monochrome, objects made for manipulating are suddenly outlined in vibrant color. Grip with the Sense controller, and you’re free to shift the item as telekinesis intended.</p>
<p class="">The item’s movement and velocity is dictated by your hand’s movement and speed. Hold a crate steady and close, and you have mobile cover. You could toss a fastball and use this flying box to cannon into – and aimed right, one-shot kill – enemies. The delicacy and precision that TK physics offers is impressive. I’ll admit I spend longer in the tutorial than I need to, just carefully stacking crates or attempting to juggle three in the air, spinning each faster and faster as I catch and release them, tossing them higher and higher.</p>
<p class="center"><img alt="" height="1080" src="https://media3.giphy.com/media/v1.Y2lkPTc5MGI3NjExYmExOGU2OWU1OGQxYjAwMTAyYzRhOWE1NGYzYjMzYjY1Y2VjNWMwZCZlcD12MV9pbnRlcm5hbF9naWZzX2dpZklkJmN0PWc/lOYLiRqC7pJs7mXCKm/giphy.gif" width="1920"/></p>
<p class="center"><img alt="" height="1080" src="https://media0.giphy.com/media/v1.Y2lkPTc5MGI3NjExNDI1MjVhY2YwZjFkZDQ1NzIxYzE3OGIxNjVjZWM1MjU4OGRhZWYwYyZlcD12MV9pbnRlcm5hbF9naWZzX2dpZklkJmN0PWc/2A7pnqDo8KR574bpDs/giphy.gif" width="1920"/></p>
<p class="has-text-align-center"><em>Two examples of using TK during combat: crates can be held and swiped back and forth, knocking enemies down like skittles. Barrels can be an explosive way to take out foes well hidden behind cover.</em></p>
<p class="">There’s smart use of the Sense controller’s adaptive triggers as well, with volatile objects such as barrels and live grenades requiring a lighter grip if you’re to hold them safely. Pull fully on the trigger and you’ll crush them, leading to explosive results. Perfect to toss then squeeze as they arc over the heads of congregating shooters, though a stray bullet from either side can as easily ignite a barrel.</p>
<p class="">Even in these early encounters, the action ramps up quickly, requiring you to think even quicker, pinpointing possible configurations of useful items, enemy locations, your route through and around any danger. All familiar ingredients of a roguelite, but TK gives Synapse a unique flavor.</p>
<p class="">And I’d be remiss if I didn’t take the time to acknowledge Synapse’s art direction. Monochrome levels with pops of vibrant color initially echo the best showroom OLED TV demos in showrooms, but the more I took time to soak in my surroundings, the more I felt subtly unsettled. The studio points out surrealistic art as an initial inspiration, but I realized what the desolate shoreline and rocky outcrops of this first biome was reminding me of. It’s a black and white starkness that harkened the setting of Swedish fantasy film The Seventh Seal. In that, a knight plays for his life in a game of chess against Death.</p>
<p class="">Perhaps that parallel isn’t an accident. Synapse’s story is one built around a battle of wits between two minds: The Colonel and his invader’s. In actual fact, it’s three different sources: the Colonel’s mind, your character’s own and the AI in control of the system. I’m curious to see what unfolds visually. nDreams promises a strong narrative to pull you in, stating it’ll take three complete runs to uncover the full scope of its story. And even after its conclusion, the game’s roguelite design is built to entice you back into another mind dive.</p>

                '<div class="post-single__content single__content entry-content">
<p class="has-default-font">While F1 Manager 23 is lining up on the grid for release on July 31, we’re jumping into a few of the new features that are now included in the most authentic F1 management simulation to date.</p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Race Replay</strong></h2>
<p class="">Race Replay is a brand-new mode for F1 Manager 23 allowing you to relive every race and pivotal moments from the 2023 F1 season.<br/><br/>Starting Grid is the first way to prove yourself in Race Replay. Choose any team and take on the starting grid and conditions from any real 2023 race and see if you have what it takes to beat the real-life outcome. You’ll need to manage your drivers, tactics, and tyres to produce the optimal performance for the team.<br/><br/>Race Moments let you jump directly into crucial, real-life scenarios faced by teams during the current season. Join Alpine at the Miami Grand Prix, where Esteban Ocon is battling to keep Charles Leclerc behind and choose the perfect time for your pit stops to ensure you beat the pursuing Ferraris. Or, take charge of McLaren after a hectic 29 laps at Albert Park and see if you can lead Oscar Piastri to a points finish at his home race.<br/><br/>With new Starting Grids and Race Moments being added to the game following every race weekend of the 2023 season, Race Replay is your opportunity to get closer to the action than ever before!</p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Pit Crew Training</strong></h2>
<p class="">New for 2023 is the Sporting Director: a key staff member responsible for trackside operations, bringing with them the ability to manage and improve your pit crew. Your Sporting Director will have their own set of performance ratings that will be crucial to develop to ensure they get the best out of your pit crew during training.</p>
<p class="">Pit-crew training schedules are set monthly. You can choose between preset regimes or create a custom plan (You can even set morning/afternoon plans per day!). Go balanced or focus on specific areas you need your crew to improve on. Pit Stop Errors will put focus on improving consistency, while Fatigue Reduction will give your crew members more rest days, reducing the likelihood of a fatigue related mistake.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><br/><strong>Driver Confidence</strong></h2>
<p class="">Confidence is key when hurtling around a circuit at 200mph in an F1 car and things are no different in F1 Manager 23.<br/><br/>Going into each race weekend, your drivers will have a baseline confidence level for each session. How you set up the car and how much time you give your drivers on-track in Practice will play a fundamental role in your drivers’ confidence and performance for Qualifying and Race sessions. If successful, your drivers will be more confident when the lights go out and be more likely to make that all important overtake. If they’re involved in a failed battle or incident, they will lose confidence! It’s up to you to keep an eye on how your driver is performing before issuing them commands.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Deeper Race Drama</strong></h2>
<p class="">Authenticity to the sport is at the heart of F1 Manager and this year we’ve taken it even further. You’ll see more on-track battles and wheel-to-wheel action going into corners, including that all important sprint to the first corner.</p>
<p class="">You’ll notice more variety in racing lines as drivers that are pushing hard will be more aggressive on the kerbs, while a driver that is conserving tyres may take a more passive approach to corners. New Driver Tactics will play into the previously mentioned Driver Confidence and influence how each race pans out while the ERS Battle Assist will make it easier to overtake/defend at those pivotal moments.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Get closer with Helmet Cam</strong></h2>
<p class="has-default-font">And last but not least, a new, more visual way to immerse yourself. Building upon the broadcast-style presentation, where we showcase all the action with real trackside camera angles, we’ve added Helmet Cam to F1 Manager 23.</p>
<p class="has-default-font">Introduced into F1 over the last couple of years, you can now get a driver’s-eye view of every corner, every battle and every incident in game.</p>
<p class="has-default-font">The immersion is ramped up immediately when you switch to the helmet camera and see your driver’s hands shifting rapidly from left and right as they tackle every apex. Or cut to the car behind and watch from their eyes. It really must be seen in action to appreciate how realistic it looks.</p>
<p class="center"><img alt="" height="1080" src="https://media4.giphy.com/media/v1.Y2lkPTc5MGI3NjExNjc1OGU4MjNjYmMzYTEyNThiZDY1ZjM3NWU5YjU0OTA3ZmJkZDQ4NyZlcD12MV9pbnRlcm5hbF9naWZzX2dpZklkJmN0PWc/IInJcY64eixNLD8Osh/giphy.gif" width="1920"/></p>
<p class="has-default-font">F1 Manager 23 features a plethora of improvements and features, bringing you ever closer to all the drama and action from the real F1 season, while setting you up with all the tools to prove yourself for years into the future. Find out if you have what it takes to be a Team Principal from July 31.</p>
<p class="has-default-font">PlayStation players who pre-order F1 Manager 23 will unlock three extra Race Replays. Deluxe Edition purchasers will also gain access to twelve exclusive scenarios for Race Replay.</p>
<p class="">F1 Manager 23 is available for pre-order now on PS4 and PS5, launching digitally on July 31.</p>

<p class="">Season 04 introduces the brand-new Vondel Battle Royale map, six new Multiplayer maps at launch and more across Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II and Call of Duty: Warzone. Season 04 launches on PlayStation on June 14. Let’s dive into the full details of what players can expect.</p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Warzone introduces Vondel, new Lockdown Mode, and more</h2>
<a href="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52945495232_ba97ea43a3_h.jpg" rel="noopener" target="_blank"><img alt="" height="1080" src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52945495232_ba97ea43a3_h.jpg" width="1920"/></a>
<p class="">A waterfront district of a Baroque European city, Vondel will launch with three supported modes, including Resurgence, DMZ, and a brand-new mode — Lockdown. Traditional Battle Royale launches at mid-season.</p>
<p class=""><strong>Lockdown:</strong> Score points by capturing and holding zones around the map. Matches last about double that of a traditional Hardpoint match.</p>
<p class=""><strong>Expanded DMZ Features:</strong> Vondel on DMZ adds new story missions, the Phalanx faction, the Signal Intelligence Contract, and dynamic fog.</p>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">New Resurgence features</h3>
<p class="">Available across all Resurgence playlists, the Dynamic Resurgence Timer automatically adjusts a squad’s respawn timers should one or more squadmates disconnect from the match. When a squadmate gets eliminated, the Nemesis Icon temporarily indicates the general location of the enemy Operator.</p>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">New items and event</h3>
<p class="">Drive on land and water with the new four passenger Tactical Amphibian Vehicle. Complete objectives in the Assault on Vondel Launch Event to unlock the Favorite Supply Box, awarding the weapons assigned to your Favorite Loadout, and the Reinforcement Flare to bring back fallen teammates. Boost your defenses with the mid-season High-Capacity Plate Carrier.</p>
<p class=""><strong>New Public Event — High Stakes:</strong> Capture fallen crates to earn Double Weapon and Player XP for the duration of the match, stacking with other XP bonuses.</p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Season 04 Combat Pack</h2>
<p class="">Starting on June 21, PlayStation Plus members can download the Season 04 Combat Pack, headlined by a new Oni Operators Skin featuring a carbon fiber armor-enhanced wetsuit.</p>
<p class="">From June 22 at 10am PT through June 23 at 10am PT, Sony players will additionally receive an exclusive Double Player XP bonus.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Six new Modern Warfare II Multiplayer maps, 12v12 S&amp;D and Prisoner Rescue</h2>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">New Core, Gunfight, and Battle Maps</h3>
<p class=""><strong>Showdown (Core Map, Launch):</strong>  A faithful recreation of the map originally featured in Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare, Showdown consists of the  central courtyard, the two-level structure surrounding it, and its outer perimeter. Operators attempting to cross the courtyard will face fierce resistance against enemies firing between the arched columns, though some ground cover offers a fighting chance against their attacks. The perimeter caters to long-ranged combat with its long, narrow lanes, though locked metal gates to the north and south keep players from rushing straight through.</p>
<p class="">Note the pathways in and out of the courtyard walkways: two staircases lead from the ground floor to the upper path, while direct access to the top floor is possible through traversing over the top of the outer metal gates. Versatility is king here, as you’ll often need to rapidly switch between close- to long-ranged combat. Operators equipped to handle the map’s long sight lines as well as its tight turns are well on their way to victory.</p>
<p class=""><strong>Kunstenaar District (Core Map, Launch):</strong> Positioned between the Stadium, Police Station, and Museum in Vondel, Kunstenaar District takes the battle to a mid-sized arts district with street murals adorning the walls of its various shops and town houses.</p>
<p class="">The map’s classic three-lane design funnels Operators along its narrow side streets and through the central plaza. Its tight interior locations offer access between the three main routes, and a canal along the map’s west flank gives Operators the chance to move past the dangerous central staircase without being seen. Watch your head when emerging back onto the main road, however, as its flat surface caters to long-distance eliminations across its length. Use the Shadow Company trucks and other vehicles in the area for cover as you move up for the attack.</p>
<p class="">When approaching the central plaza, watch for enemies at the top of the stairs. Attack from multiple angles to divide their attention or slip through the nearby archway and dislodge them before taking the position for yourself. The slope of the east path reduces visibility across, though it’s possible to mantle up onto the museum boundary for a greater overhead view.</p>

<p class="">Other launch maps include the Mercado and Penthouse Gunfight maps, and the Mawizeh Marshlands and Ahkdar Village Battle maps. Expect an additional Multiplayer Core Map in the mid-season update.</p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Limited-time 12v12 Search &amp; Destroy, Prisoner Rescue</h2>
<p class="">Weekly Playlist updates will feature 12v12 combat in Search &amp; Destroy and Prisoner Rescue.</p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">General Overview</h2>
<p class=""><strong>Assault on Vondel:</strong> Fight back and reclaim the city from Nikto and his mercenaries in the Assault on Vondel Launch Event. Complete challenges to acquire medals, awarding personal and community unlock rewards along the way.</p>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">New Operators</h3>
<p class="">New Operators are arriving for SpecGru and KorTac, including the infamous masked Nikto as well as Ana Vega, Io (via BlackCell), and a new Farah Operator skin upon completion of Raid Episode 04 later this season.</p>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">New weapons</h3>
<p class="">Season 04 adds four new weapons to the mix. In the Battle Pass, get the Tempus Razorback Assault Rifle and ISO SMG. Through weapon unlock challenges, earn the new Tonfa melee weapon and a new Shotgun.</p>
<p class="">Stay frosty. </p>

<p class="">After showing off some gameplay in an explosive trailer earlier this year, the team is delighted to present some more of the roguelite (or roguelotl, as we call it) gameplay elements of our game AK-xolotl.<br/><br/>For these axolotls, the food chain is merely a suggestion and the line between prey and predator can easily be erased with an AK-47. Your enemies however, will not go down without a fight. Especially in the beginning, you’ll be outnumbered and outgunned.</p>
<p class="">As the old saying kinda goes, “Anything that actually kills us, makes us stronger.” For axolotls and their amazing regenerative abilities, this is undeniably true. In your quest for revenge and snacks (more on the story later) you’ll be faced with many challenging adversaries. As shown in the trailer, dying is part of the gameplay loop and players should be prepared to die…a lotl.</p>
<p class="">Luckily, our main Axolotl doesn’t have to face all this violence alone. During each run, new Axolittles can be unlocked, each with unique traits and skills. With a little love (and food) these Axolittles will soon grow into a bunch of trigger-happy little maniacs, eager to mow down their enemies.</p>
<p class="">In the trailer, we are showing off some of the unique abilities your Axolittles can inherit, ranging from a quick self heal to destroying all your enemies in the ultimate sacrifice.<br/></p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Snack</h2>
<p class="">Beginning players might appreciate the standard healing ability early on. While you are still learning the ropes and expanding your arsenal, being able to heal yourself will come in clutch during that first boss fight. You’ll still have to manage and plan your heals as the ability, like all abilities, requires a certain amount of damage dealt to enemies before you can use it again.</p>
<p class="center"><img alt="" src="https://media2.giphy.com/media/v1.Y2lkPTc5MGI3NjExN2EwZWFhYTIxY2IxM2NlMjRhNzgzMGE5ODZiYWI4Y2I3OTg4ZDgzYiZlcD12MV9pbnRlcm5hbF9naWZzX2dpZklkJmN0PWc/Six98aoJM5hCksk2OC/giphy.gif"/></p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Summon</h2>
<p class="">More experienced players might be more inclined to max out their special items by embracing their inner Greed Demon, an ability that allows them to summon power-ups from the netherrealms. Don’t expect to spam this ability though. The more you use it, the longer it will take to charge.</p>
<p class="center"><img alt="" src="https://media2.giphy.com/media/v1.Y2lkPTc5MGI3NjExZDgxYWQ5YjM3OTEzZTMyMDdkNGVkNGFkYTQ2ZTVmZjYyMWU4MTM2OCZlcD12MV9pbnRlcm5hbF9naWZzX2dpZklkJmN0PWc/K2H9KyveNEJi2EuVN5/giphy.gif"/></p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Lotzilla</h2>
<p class="">When collecting certain materials from specific biomes, sometimes you just want to be able to stomp your enemies and get it over with. In those cases, nothing beats the Lotzilla skill. You think an axolotl with a gun is a problem? Try facing a giant axolotl with a <em>giant</em> gun!</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Faith</h2>
<p class="">The powerful  “all or nothing” ability Faith should be reserved for only the fiercest players. When death is imminent, this type of axolotl can go full Super Saiy…lotl and overcharge their killing power to destroy everything on screen, including themselves. Why would anyone do that? Well, remember the regenerative power of the axolotls. Everytime they burn it all down, there is a small chance of surviving the explosion. A great way to either get out of a terrible situation, or go out in style.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">But wait, there’s more!</h2>
<p class="">Along the way you’ll be able to collect ingredients to cook hearty meals for your Axolittles, helping them grow and nurture their violent tendencies. Don’t get too attached to the little ones though. Somewhere in a forbidden corner of the pond lurks an ancient evil with an offer that is hard to refuse. Let’s just say that survival of the fittest sometimes means making some hard, dark choices…<br/><br/>AK-xolotl is coming to PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4 this fall.</p>

<p class="">Hello wanderers, I’m Gwen, co-founder and director at SOS. We are very happy to welcome you to Viewfinder, our first game as a studio. In it you, the player, can reshape reality with photographs, found objects, and a camera. That may sound confusing, but I’ve always found that the best way to explain the gameplay of Viewfinder is to experience it. For this reason, we are proud to reveal that you can do so today, in the new <a data-id="https://store.playstation.com/en-us/product/UP5180-PPSA16491_00-VIEWFINDERDEMOUS" data-type="URL" href="https://store.playstation.com/en-us/product/UP5180-PPSA16491_00-VIEWFINDERDEMOUS">Viewfinder demo at PlayStation Store for PlayStation 5</a>!</p>
<a href="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52954139723_6f25948380_h.jpg" rel="noopener" target="_blank"><img alt="" height="1080" src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52954139723_6f25948380_h.jpg" width="1920"/></a>
<p class="">When we were first developing the placing photos mechanic, we focused on what felt good and fun. Having a camera, taking photos, and placing things randomly in space to alter reality is very exciting and amusing. But we were very mindful that placing found objects in new spaces also meant destroying what was previously there. Things can get complicated and confusing, especially if you accidentally delete something, like a teleporter, as these mark the end point of each puzzle and take you to the next challenge or even to the end of the level. We wouldn’t want that. This would mean dead ends and as much as the core mechanic is interesting, it limits the things we wanted to do and would be an unpleasant experience for anybody.</p>
<p class="center"><img alt="" height="1080" src="https://media.giphy.com/media/v1.Y2lkPTc5MGI3NjExMGQ5ZWZkZGNlMTliMmRiOWY2MWI4MGQ5YWZmYTg4MTI4MTVmNDUwNyZlcD12MV9pbnRlcm5hbF9naWZzX2dpZklkJmN0PWc/x5adxUAmUhrSHvz8ao/giphy.gif" width="1920"/></p>
<p class="">Sometimes playing games can feel like work and resetting a whole level’s progress can be discouraging, especially when the solution is at the tip of your tongue. How could we give players the freedom to explore the world we’ve built without fear of consequences? So we thought of what else we can pair with this camera mechanic so that it doesn’t punish, but actually encourages trial and error for people figuring out ways to move forward.</p>
<p class="">The answer is Rewind.</p>
<p class="">We wanted to encourage experimentation and remove the fear of failure. Now when you stumble upon something that would have otherwise been game breaking, you can just turn back time and try again! It is very important that people play the game at their own pace and discover things in their own way. It doesn’t matter how you play the game, as long as you have fun along the way. After that, the game felt way fuller and concrete.</p>

<p class="">In the words of the Cheshire Cat, “Imagination is the only weapon in the war with reality.” Viewfinder gameplay became this unique experience that can only exist in the video game medium. Because it is so absurd, weird and far removed from reality, we wanted to ground it with things from the real world. The space you’re exploring should feel lived in and real. Instead of trying to make something wholly original, we did our best to figure out how we can bring who we are, and what makes us happy into the game. Like sitting, we really like sitting down.</p>
<p class="center"><img alt="" height="1080" src="https://media.giphy.com/media/v1.Y2lkPTc5MGI3NjExMDI2ODc4ZjkxMTFmYzU2ODllOTBmNmQ5ZjdiNWNmMjU5N2RlMDk2ZSZlcD12MV9pbnRlcm5hbF9naWZzX2dpZklkJmN0PWc/7yMcZpbaV0Qf8HkgVe/giphy.gif" width="1920"/></p>
<p class="">Adding in elements that are so closely tied to who we are as people can be complicated and scary. It takes a lot of hard work and vulnerability to translate feelings into a video game and hope people resonate with them. But it turns out that this was the best part of making this game.</p>
<a href="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52954070930_9b47ffec67_h.jpg" rel="noopener" target="_blank"><img alt="" height="1080" src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52954070930_9b47ffec67_h.jpg" width="1920"/></a>
<p class="">We’ve put in a robot vacuum cleaner and some of the places and paintings we love. There’s a bonsai mango. There’s a watermelon with a headset. Guitars. Electric guitars. Plants. Tea cups. The evil eye. Bread. A photocopier. What happens when you put the impossible triangle in 3D space? Does it go on forever? What will “The Scream” painting sound like? What’s inside a child-like house drawing? Do blocks fall when you place a picture of them in the sky? Is it a stair or is it just lines on the wall?</p>
<p class="">This is why we have a cat in-game. CAIT will be your companion as you learn more about the world we’ve built. And if you ever feel frustrated at a level, we encourage you to pet the cat. Now cats growl when they’re pleased, some people might call it purring, and some might call it growling. But yes, pet the cat.</p>
<p class="">So you get to rewind time and pet a cat.</p>

<p class="">Creating is freedom, but at what cost? You can learn more about this when you play Viewfinder. The demo will be permanently available on PlayStation 5. And we are very excited to release the full game on July 18. We hope you love the game just as much as we do.</p>

<p class="">But before I begin, here’s what you can expect from the demo:</p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Explore Krat</h2>
<p class="">This demo gives you just a glimpse of what’s explorable in Krat but there’s lots to discover! So, make sure you explore locations as you make your way to Hotel Krat. You just may uncover secrets that help P grow stronger and additional background information.  </p>
<a href="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52956523241_378dfa3d3e_h.jpg" rel="noopener" target="_blank"><img alt="" src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52956523241_378dfa3d3e_h.jpg"/></a>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Weapon assemble/ weapon combination</h2>
<p class="">Create unique weapons by taking some handles and blades to merge them into something new for all new attributes and styles. After meeting with Gepgetto, you can begin experimenting by speaking to Eugenie in Hotel Krat or by finding a stargazer.</p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Fable Arts </h2>
<p class="">Each weapon has two Fable Arts – one for the blade and one for the handle. Fable Arts have a wide-range of uses, including bolstering your defense or dealing damage in spectacular fashion</p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Legion Arm loadouts </h2>
<p class="">There are three available in the demo, each with a unique purpose so you can customize to fit your playstyle and weapon. Go to the Venigni Craft Machine in Hotel Krat to change your Legion Arm.</p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Improving P</h2>
<p class="">Increase all your attributes in exchange for Ergo by speaking to Sophia in Hotel Krat. The higher your attributes increase, the greater the Ergo cost. What will you improve first? You’ll be able to improve P via Stargazer before meeting with Sophia in this demo.</p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Stargazers/ Stargazers</h2>
<p class="">Using a Stargazer will replenish your health, but enemies also respawn so only use them if you really need to. </p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Groggy &amp; Fatal Attacks</h2>
<p class="">When attacking enemies, they’ll become Groggy (see white outline around health bar). After stunning a groggy enemy, use a Fatal Attack to punish them during this window. </p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Before you take on the Parade Master </h2>
<p class="">Purchase Throwing Cells from the Wandering Merchant located directly outside the boss encounter. They’re a particularly effective throwable object for this boss. They deal shock damage from a distance and make the boss more susceptible to damage from melee attacks for a short period.</p>
<p class="">Be sure to upgrade P from the Stargazer outside Krat Hotel before taking on the Parade Master. </p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Scrapping with the Scrapped Watchman </h2>
<p class="">Use a Star Fragment to summon a Specter outside the boss room to aid you in this encounter.</p>
<p class="">It will use electric elemental attack in the second phase, therefore it is recommended to use parts with electric damage reduction.</p>
<p class="">Electric shock status will cause more damage from this boss. Make sure to use Attribute Purification Ampoule to prevent it from happening.</p>

<p class=""><strong>Feedback, please</strong></p>
<p class="">The Lies of P developers have been hard at work to deliver a demo they’re proud of. But none of that means a thing unless you, the community, feel the same. Please share your feedback with us and we’ll release the very best Lies of P experience possible this September 19.</p>

<p class="">Remnant II immerses players in a seamless blend of fast-paced third person shooting, strategic character customization, and deep exploration.

<p class="">The game presents an arsenal of diverse weapons, each with their unique playstyle and devastating powers.

<p class=""><strong>About FINAL FANTASY VII</strong></p>
<p class="">First released in 1997 on the PlayStation® computer entertainment system, <em>FINAL FANTASY VII </em>celebrated its 25th Anniversary in 2022. The game is universally regarded as a hallmark title of the RPG genre. The original title received high praise for its epic storyline, unique characters, and movie sequences that utilized the most cutting-edge technology of the time. Since then, the game has sold over 13.9 million copies worldwide and continues to receive widespread acclaim from critics and fans around the world. The popular game has even expanded into spin-offs, films, and merchandise.</p>
<p class="">The first game of the <em>FINAL FANTASY VII </em>remake trilogy project, <em>FINAL FANTASY VII REMAKE</em>, released in 2020, has been praised by both players and critics across the globe, earning more than 20 perfect scores from media, and was selected as a PlayStation® “Editor’s Choice” pick. The game also became the highest-selling digital release on the PlayStation® platform in SQUARE ENIX’s history, exceeding more than five million shipments and digital sales worldwide since its release. <em>FINAL FANTASY VII REBIRTH</em>, the second game in the trilogy, is now in development and will be available worldwide in early 2024 for the PS5.</p>

<p class="">Discover the mystery of the Wilds in Fortnite Battle Royale Chapter 4 Season 3. A hidden jungle, along with ancient secrets, have been uncovered after the collapse of the Island’s center. Use the new environment to your advantage: slide in the mud for camouflage, or ascend to the canopies above to get the jump on your opponents in this new Battle Royale Season!</p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Use your surroundings</h2>
<p class="">The “high ground” doesn’t always mean the ground. Ascend to the jungle’s canopies and attack foes from above.</p>
<a href="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52959584317_0e5d6df7a0_h.jpg" rel="noopener" target="_blank"><img alt="Fortnite Jungle Canopies" src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52959584317_0e5d6df7a0_h.jpg"/></a>
<p class="">When you get back on the ground, slide in the mud for more speed than regular sliding… and gain camouflage in the process!</p>
<a href="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52960563980_99cfaf9e6a_h.jpg" rel="noopener" target="_blank"><img alt="Fortnite Mud Sliding" src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52960563980_99cfaf9e6a_h.jpg"/></a>
<p class="has-text-align-center"><em>Sliding in the mud can help you make a clean getaway (figuratively speaking).</em></p>
<p class="">Speaking of mobility, ride the jungle’s vines (called grind vines) to get from place to place faster. You can even use your weapons while you ride.</p>
<a href="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52960179506_256760beec_h.jpg" rel="noopener" target="_blank"><img alt="Fortnite Vine Grinding" src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52960179506_256760beec_h.jpg"/></a>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Wild weaponry</h2>
<p class="">A new weapon from ancient times, strategically hurl a Kinetic Boomerang and hit enemies in its flight and return paths. Miss your shot? No problem –- recall your trusty boomerang to trigger a small explosion then try again!</p>
<a href="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52960179456_e3c34c5374_h.jpg" rel="noopener" target="_blank"><img alt="Fortnite Kinetic Boomerang" src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52960179456_e3c34c5374_h.jpg"/></a>
<p class="">There’s the ancient Kinetic Boomerang – and there’s also a modern weapon. Grab the Flapjack<strong> </strong>Rifle,<strong> </strong>a high capacity, heavy-hitting weapon that deals high structure damage. The Flapjack Rifle is useful on opponents as well.</p>
<a href="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52959584182_cdbabf9b84_h.jpg" rel="noopener" target="_blank"><img alt="Fortnite Flapjack Rifle" src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52959584182_cdbabf9b84_h.jpg"/></a>
<p class="has-text-align-center"><em>The Flapjack Rifle features a spinning magazine — watch it go as you take down fortresses and foes.</em></p>
<p class="">Also a modern weapon, take up the Thermal DMR and detect the heat of your enemies. Just watch out for enemies with mud camouflage, as they’ll be hidden from thermal detection.</p>
<a href="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52960179441_31fe7e027a_h.jpg" rel="noopener" target="_blank"><img alt="Fortnite Thermal DMR" src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52960179441_31fe7e027a_h.jpg"/></a>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Ferocious flora and fauna</h2>
<p class="">The jungle is dangerous, yet full of advantages to gain the edge on your opponents. Shoot a Bomb Flower to create an explosion, or shoot a Stink Flower to unleash toxic gas on nearby enemies. Not <em>all</em> the vegetation is harmful — destroy Slurp Plants to heal you and your team.</p>
<a href="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52960327519_6ae15af7ca_h.jpg" rel="noopener" target="_blank"><img alt="Fortnite Bomb Pod Plant, Stink Pod Plant, and Slurp Pod Plant" src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52960327519_6ae15af7ca_h.jpg"/></a>
<p class="">What about the animal life? Raptors run wild in the jungle – take command of one by jumping on top of it. As you ride, you’ll be able to use your arsenal and jump super high.</p>
<a href="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52960634088_8fa34abfcf_h.jpg" rel="noopener" target="_blank"><img alt="Fortnite Raptor Riding" src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52960634088_8fa34abfcf_h.jpg"/></a>
<p class="">A hostile insect species known as Wildwasps<strong> </strong>also<strong> </strong>inhabit the jungle, preferring to swarm around certain plants. Gather them in a jar to throw at enemies! (If someone throws a Wildwasp Jar at <em>you</em>, jump in water or cover yourself in mud to get the Wildwasps off your tail.)</p>
<a href="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52959584167_ed36515ada_h.jpg" rel="noopener" target="_blank"><img alt="Fortnite Wildwasp Jar" src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52959584167_ed36515ada_h.jpg"/></a>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Chapter 4 Season 3 Battle Pass</h2>
<p class="">Explore the Island in style with the Chapter 4 Season 3 Battle Pass. Upon purchasing the Battle Pass, you’ll auto-unlock Era of the new “Ancestral Era” Set.</p>
<p class="">As you progress through the Battle Pass, you’ll unlock Outfits like rock ranger Rian and even Autobot leader Optimus Prime. Later in the Season, wild-time-haver Purradise Meowscles will become available to unlock in the Battle Pass!</p>

<p class="">The Mortal Kombat series recently<a href="https://blog.playstation.com/2022/10/07/ed-boon-talks-30-years-of-mortal-kombat/"> hit the big 3-0</a>. And what a long, bloody trip it’s been: Eleven mainline games over six console generations and somewhere between 75 and 80+ characters, depending on how and where you want to count them.</p>

<p class="">And now <a href="https://store.playstation.com/concept/10004911/?smcid=ma">Mortal Kombat 1</a>, which is looking to open the floodgates on that rich, gory history while serving as a chapter-one reset. It’s a reintroduction of the entire IP, with one big, big gameplay twist.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Kameos in the Spotlight</h2>
<p class="">While the visuals look stupendous, and the core fighting feels as tight as ever, the Kameo fighters are easily the star of this show. Using a combination of directional inputs and the R1 button, you can command your Kameo partner to bash an airborne enemy, juggle them, zap them from afar, throw them, execute a combo breaker… even perform a fatality. </p>
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li><strong>But you need to be strategic.</strong> Kameo fighters come with a cooldown, so you can’t spam your opponent with a barrage of incoming attacks. They work best as a combo extender or as a way to build momentum on your opponent — if you’ve played Tekken Tag Tournament, you’ll have a decent idea how Kameo fighters will fit into this mix. </li>
<li><strong>Kameo fighters were a combination of two ideas. </strong>Early in MK1’s development, the design team proposed adding unique modifiers to each fighter, such as giving Sonya a drone that could augment her attacks. “But it was specific to each character. And I kind of pushed back,” Boon explained. “I think we should do something everybody can share.” Then there was the question of the 2v2 Tag mode, not seen since 2011’s Mortal Kombat. “We loved it, and a lot of people loved it,” Boon explained, “but it wasn’t a much-played feature.” Enter Kameo fighters, which seemed to solve two different needs. “This kind of simplified thing, [activated] with a button push… that to me felt like the sweet spot.” </li>
<li><strong>More Kameos are coming, and every retro MK character is on the table for consideration</strong>. Boon expects that MK1 will include between 15 and 20 Kameo fighters on day one, but more will be on the way. “We have some ridiculous ones that are gonna be coming later,” Boon teased, “like, you know… how do they even remember that character?!” </li>
</ul>
<p class="center"><a href="https://media3.giphy.com/media/v1.Y2lkPTc5MGI3NjExYTA4MmU4MWUxZmU4NzFhM2ZiNGM1ODFjNDVjMTEwZWRlZDg3ZGJlZiZlcD12MV9pbnRlcm5hbF9naWZzX2dpZklkJmN0PWc/24i79Pd9siGkJuXxXI/giphy.gif" rel="noopener" target="_blank"><img alt="" height="1080" src="https://media3.giphy.com/media/v1.Y2lkPTc5MGI3NjExYTA4MmU4MWUxZmU4NzFhM2ZiNGM1ODFjNDVjMTEwZWRlZDg3ZGJlZiZlcD12MV9pbnRlcm5hbF9naWZzX2dpZklkJmN0PWc/24i79Pd9siGkJuXxXI/giphy.gif" width="1920"/></a></p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Ed Boon speaks</h2>
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li><strong>The premise. </strong>So is MK1 a reboot, a remake? “I think it could be in the category of a reboot.” Boon explained that the team at NetherRealm wanted to include key existing characters but tell a brand-new story. And the canonical ending of 2019’s MK11 made for a perfect springboard, with series mainstay-turned-fire-god Liu Kang in control of the flow of time and effectively resetting the universe. “And then, obviously,” Boon said, “something goes wrong.” The results will be familiar characters who may be in very, <em>very</em> different circumstances. </li>
<li><strong>Who’s the villain? </strong>While Boon confirmed that “a number of” classic Mortal Kombat villains would be returning in some way, he wouldn’t spell out who the big bad was. “Just like with the heroes, the villains will start completely different…they’ll go down different paths and have different relationships with each other.” If you’re well-versed in MK lore, expect to encounter some twists.</li>
<li><strong>New modes?</strong> Boon remained tight-lipped on online play details. But he did confirm that the team is working on a replacement for the Krypt mode seen in the past six MK games. “We have a whoooole new system,” Boon teased. “I can tell you it’s not the Krypt. But we’re gonna have a whole new system for unlocks.”</li>
<li><strong>New-gen benefits.</strong> Boon appreciates many things about the PS5 generation — “it’s obviously crazy powerful.” But his biggest appreciation? The superfast SSD. “We can load in these crazy detailed backgrounds that before would have taken so long to upload.”</li>
<li><strong>Some fatalities DO get rejected. </strong>Over the years, NetherRealm has established a sort of “fatality committee” that weighs in on pitches for the series’ iconic finishing moves. Ideas come in from around the company, but Boon has the final say. “Yeah, there’s a line, you know… there have been plenty that I’ve sent back and said, ‘no, that’s just crossing the line. We’re not doing stuff like that.’ And then they would get disappointed. But enough get through that they’re good.”</li>
<li><strong>Boon is a bit behind on his games. </strong>With MK1 only three months from launch, Boon’s eager to catch up on some recent hits. “I’m definitely going to get Street Fighter 6, I’ve always been a fan,” Boon said. “I haven’t even had a chance to play God of War Ragnarök. And I’ve never played Diablo, but I’m really curious about Diablo IV.”</li>
</ul>
<p class="center"><a href="https://media3.giphy.com/media/v1.Y2lkPTc5MGI3NjExMTYyMjVmYjljYzY2YzNjMzI3MzE1ZWVhZWUwMDY5ZGMyMGUzOWQ4MiZlcD12MV9pbnRlcm5hbF9naWZzX2dpZklkJmN0PWc/GZhUMe2aECb1lbaRA4/giphy.gif" rel="noopener" target="_blank"><img alt="" height="1080" src="https://media3.giphy.com/media/v1.Y2lkPTc5MGI3NjExMTYyMjVmYjljYzY2YzNjMzI3MzE1ZWVhZWUwMDY5ZGMyMGUzOWQ4MiZlcD12MV9pbnRlcm5hbF9naWZzX2dpZklkJmN0PWc/GZhUMe2aECb1lbaRA4/giphy.gif" width="1920"/></a></p>
<p class="">So that’s it… for now, at least. Based on my 30-minute play session, MK1 is a major series shakeup in more ways than one. With just three months to go, expect a steady stream of announces and reveals leading up to its September 19 launch on PS5.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Domain 9, an exquisite Eastern magical world</h2>
<p class="">Speaking of Domain 9, in Tower of Fantasy, we aim to create a unique Eastern aesthetic by seamlessly blending Eastern architectural elements with our sci-fi universe, resulting in a distinct art style. The new Domain 9 map features mountains, the Great Wall, citadels, and floating ships, intricately interconnected. You’ll encounter traditional Eastern cultural adornments like the eternal flame lamp and traditional ink-wash paintings, alongside futuristic elements like neon lights and floating structures.</p>

<p class="">To enhance the mystical ambiance of the Eastern world, we drew inspiration from ancient myths such as the<em> </em>Classic of Mountains and Seas and designed over ten different creatures based on these mythical beasts. By infusing them with our game’s sci-fi universe, these creatures take on dual forms, capable of spewing molten fire and summoning mechanical weapons for combat.</p>
<p class="center"><a href="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52955880991_b0caa8cfcc_h.jpg" rel="noopener" target="_blank"><img alt="" src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52955880991_b0caa8cfcc_h.jpg"/></a></p> 



<p class="">Now, let’s dive deeper into the intriguing character of Liu Huo, our latest addition to the character roster from the world of Domain 9. Picture her in a stylish qipao dress and rocking twin buns, giving off that charming girl-next-door vibe. But don’t be fooled by appearances! When the heat is on, she’s ready to unleash her secret weapon: a massive mechanical ink brush that packs a punch. As she swings it around, fiery Chinese characters light up the battlefield, adding a touch of flair to her fierce fighting style. Get ready to witness the perfect blend of tradition and modernity with Liu Huo in Tower of Fantasy!</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Freedom is at the heart of exploration in Tower of Fantasy</h2>
<p class="">We’ve gone the extra mile to provide an incredibly fluid parkour experience, allowing you to traverse the map seamlessly. Each weapon, relic, and vehicle offer its own unique flight postures and effects. For example, Lan gracefully descends with an umbrella and petals, while Alice transforms into a dragonfly, effortlessly soaring over towering mountains. Rubilia, on the other hand, spreads her mechanical wings, propelling herself through the sky at breathtaking speeds. In the 3.0 version, we introduce the brand-new relic Speedwalkers, enabling you to freely walk and run on walls and mountains, breaking free from the limitations of stamina bars and ensuring a seamless exploration experience.</p>

<p class="">In addition to parkour, we’ve incorporated various fixed-point movement modes throughout the game. Each map features specific means of transportation, such as taxis and subways in the cyber city of Mirroria or the ornate Dragonfly Cruiser in the mystical Eastern realm of Domain 9. These movement modes not only allow you to cover long distances quickly, unlocking new areas and collecting resources, but they also offer a fresh perspective on the game world, ensuring that traversal never becomes monotonous or boring.</p>

<p class="">In addition to allowing players to freely customize their characters on a high-definition screen, cutting-edge ray tracing technology is also used to experience the appeal of an open-world with higher quality graphics. The game also supports the DualSense wireless controller’s haptic feedback. </p>

<p class="">Venba is a game about culture, cooking, and change and how food can wonderfully represent it all, coming to the PS5 on July 31. We spoke with Abhi, creative director of Venba, on the ways the game showcases the challenges of immigrating to a new home and the things it can teach us as a person and community.</p>

</div>
<p class=""><strong>PlayStation.Blog: </strong><strong>What inspired you to make Venba?</strong></p>
<p class=""><strong>Abhi: </strong>A lot of immigrant media focuses on the assimilated children and their struggles, but we felt that the story of the parents is often overlooked. Moving to a completely different country is a huge risk and often isolating. This makes their cultural identity very important to them, and this is what we wanted to explore in Venba. </p>
<p class=""><strong>PSB: </strong><strong>How did you get your start in the gaming industry?</strong></p>
<p class=""><strong>Abhi: </strong>I have always had a huge interest in playing and making video games. I pursued a Computer Science degree with the intention of becoming a programmer in the game industry. Once I graduated, I started working at a mobile game studio right up until I left to start my own studio.</p>
<p class="center"><img alt="" src="https://media3.giphy.com/media/v1.Y2lkPTc5MGI3NjExZmU0NTEzZjQ5ZjY0ZTU0ZTFmNTI3MWY5ZWFjZDk4YzEzNTNiN2M4YyZlcD12MV9pbnRlcm5hbF9naWZzX2dpZklkJmN0PWc/DhUoAbfnh7BtzBkmXp/giphy.gif"/></p>
<p class=""><strong>PSB: </strong><strong>How many iterations/angles did you explore before landing on Venba being a narrative cooking game? Was it always planned this way?</strong></p>
<p class=""><strong>Abhi: </strong>Venba was always a narrative cooking game! The idea of telling the story through cooking was very compelling to us and was a core concept from the start.</p>
<p class="">However, the specific way we approached the cooking gameplay took a lot of iterations and prototyping. Ultimately we settled on the idea of restoring a lost recipe book and framing the cooking sections as puzzles, which we feel fits the game really well. </p>
<p class=""><strong>PSB: </strong><strong>What motivated you to start your own game studio?</strong></p>
<p class=""><strong>Abhi: </strong>I didn’t set out to start a studio, but I’ve always wanted to make my own games and tell certain stories. While at my full-time job, I would often be working on a side project or two. Venba was one such game, and its reception has allowed me to transition to working on it full-time and starting a studio!</p>

<p class=""><strong>PSB: </strong><strong>Where did you draw inspiration for the characters from?</strong></p>
<p class=""><strong>Abhi: </strong>The characters are strongly inspired from the many Tamil families I’ve seen both in Canada and back home. Apart from that, their characterizations also take a lot of inspiration from Tamil movies. </p>
<p class=""><strong>PSB: </strong><strong>Living in Toronto, were there any places or events that helped you find your way in this industry?</strong></p>
<p class=""><strong>Abhi: </strong>Working in the mobile game studio was definitely very helpful, as I was able to meet a lot of people who were passionate about game development.</p>
<p class=""><strong>PSB: </strong><strong>What was the most challenging part of developing a game like Venba? How did you and your team persevere?</strong></p>
<p class=""><strong>Abhi: </strong>We started working on Venba while working other full-time jobs. Transitioning from part-time work to starting a studio wasn’t straightforward, and there were a lot of challenges. Thankfully the reception to Venba has been overwhelming and has given us the confidence to start doing this project full-time.</p>

<p class=""><strong>PSB: </strong><strong>Are there any people in your life that played a key role in kickstarting your development journey?</strong></p>
<p class=""><strong>Abhi: </strong>I’d love to shout out Chandana Ekanayake, who’s the co-founder and creative director at Outerloop Games (Falcon Age, Thirsty Suitors). He got in touch with us after seeing Venba in its early stages and has been a constant source of support and mentorship! He’s really helped us a lot in our journey and is a big reason why we’re able to get as far as we did.</p>
<p class=""><strong>PSB: </strong><strong>What message are you hoping to convey through this title?</strong></p>
<p class=""><strong>Abhi: </strong>When I first pitched the idea of Venba to our producer, Shahrin Khan, she said, “I feel like people will call their mom after playing it.” So I think if that happens, we’ll be happy.</p>
<p class=""><strong>PSB: </strong><strong>If you had to share one word of advice for a new up-and-coming game dev, what would it be?</strong><strong> </strong></p>
<p class=""><strong>Abhi: </strong>One of my favorite film directors often says, “The more local you are, the more international you become.” There’s an idea that telling personal, specific, and authentic stories is not commercially viable, but I find that if it comes from a genuine place, it always finds an audience. This is something that has been true with Venba as well.</p>

<p class=""><strong>PSB: </strong><strong>How did you decide on the art style? What was the process like?</strong><strong> </strong></p>
<p class=""><strong>Abhi: </strong>Sam Elkana, our art director, has a unique art style that’s very stylized and inspired by the likes of Samurai Jack and Dexter’s Laboratory. When developing the art direction for Venba, he wanted to adopt a similar approach to stylization. </p>
<p class="">But since we’ll be introducing these dishes for the first time to a lot of the audience, Sam had to strike a balance between stylization while maintaining authenticity, which we think he has done really well.</p>
<p class=""><strong>PSB: </strong><strong>How important is food to your cultural identity?</strong></p>
<p class=""><strong>Abhi: </strong>I think food has a very strong connection to culture. One thing I’ve noticed about 2nd and 3rd generation immigrants is that no matter how assimilated they are, food from their culture finds a way to them. It has a staying power that other things from their culture, like movies, music, or even language doesn’t. </p>

<p class=""><strong>PSB: </strong><strong>Outside of cooking, what is the story you want to tell with Venba?</strong></p>
<p class=""><strong>Abhi: </strong>We mostly wanted to introduce players to the culture that we’re very passionate about. We’ve taken a lot of time and effort to help the player feel like they’re really stepping into a Tamil kitchen. Our sound designer, Neha Patel, spent a lot of time recording the sounds you hear by actually cooking the dishes and recreating them carefully. </p>
<p class="">Additionally, since music plays a big part in our households, Venba has an original soundtrack that the in-game radio plays during the cooking sections. These songs pay homage to the different eras of Tamil music we heard growing up.  </p>
<p class=""><strong>PSB: What are you looking forward to creating next?</strong></p>
<p class=""><strong>Abhi: </strong>The Visai Games motto is to tell intimate stories with interesting mechanics. We have quite a few exciting new ideas that we’re already exploring.</p>

<p class="">Creating a character from the ground up can be daunting, but developing a character’s growth through progressive storylines is a raging beast of a task in itself. Santa Monica Studio took on this challenge through its comprehensive development of the beloved Atreus, son of Kratos in God of War Ragnarök, where the main focus was to shape shift Atreus from “boy into a young man” with his own unique motivations.</p>
<p class="">A new God of War Ragnarök deep-dive featuring perspectives from developers at Santa Monica Studio details the journey of Atreus’ character development, specifically turning him into a playable character and narrative driving-force. One fascinating facet of Atreus covered is the story behind Atreus’ weapon choice in God of War Ragnarök.</p>
<p class="">Fans may be surprised to hear that while brainstorming ideas for Atreus’ weapons there were other options considered along with the bow, which ultimately became the focus.</p>
<a href="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52958268170_cf2e723b8b_h.jpg" rel="noopener" target="_blank"><img alt="" height="1080" src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52958268170_cf2e723b8b_h.jpg" width="1920"/></a>
<p class="">“There was a lot of talk early on about whether we should give Atreus a sword or a knife, but we didn’t want to overload players and wanted to leave room for Atreus to grow” says Bruno Velasquez, animation director at Santa Monica Studio.</p>
<p class="">The decision to not overload players with weapon choices gave developers a chance to flesh out the bow and how it can be used in diverse ways, considering ranged and melee attacks, as well as simple tasks like prying open chests to gather items.</p>
<p class="center"><img alt="" height="1080" src="https://media3.giphy.com/media/v1.Y2lkPTc5MGI3NjExNmI1MjE3N2Q5YjM0NDdiNzc3OWVjNTg3OTJmYmYxOTA3NmRlZmRiMCZlcD12MV9pbnRlcm5hbF9naWZzX2dpZklkJmN0PWc/lDUNIvEq9GGgqArE2H/giphy.gif" width="1920"/></p>
<p class="">More than just <em>how</em> he uses it, honing in on the bow presented the opportunity to explore <em>why</em> Atreus uses the bow and his connection to it.  </p>
<p class="">Atreus’ mother Faye gave him the weapon and taught him how to use it, making it much more than a tool. The bow is a small piece of her that he carries with him, as well as an extension of himself, as we see in the multitude of ways he uses it to interact with the world. </p>

<p class="">“We want players to understand that the bow is part of him – he’s always using it, he’s always thinking about it” says Grace Pan, animator at Santa Monica Studio.</p>

<p class="">Hi PlayStation Blog readers! <a href="https://www.playstation.com/games/avatar-frontiers-of-pandora/">Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora</a> debuted a bunch of new gameplay in today’s Ubisoft Forward. Here at Ubisoft, we’re thrilled to bring you a little more insight into the world of Pandora and the Western Frontier directly from the game’s creators.  </p>
<p class="">Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora will launch on PlayStation 5 on December 7, and PlayStation players will receive the Aranahe Warrior Pack for free, which grants them exclusive character and weapon cosmetic sets. Developed by Massive Entertainment – a Ubisoft Studio in collaboration with James Cameron’s production company Lightstorm Entertainment and Disney, Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora lets players take on the role of a Na’vi who awakens on Pandora years after being abducted as a child and raised by the Resources Development Administration (RDA), a human militaristic corporation.  Now a stranger on Pandora, you must learn what it means to be a Na’vi while reckoning with the RDA and the threat they pose to the birthplace you are only just becoming familiar with.    </p>

</div>
</div>
<p class="">Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora Creative Director Magnus Jansén explains that this push-and-pull between two different worlds shapes the heart of the game. “This character has never connected with Pandora,” he says. “You’ve never set foot there. You don’t know the ways of the Na’vi. You must learn how to become Na’vi, and that is what a big part of this journey is about.”  </p>
<p class="">Being a child of two worlds has its practical uses, too, and your knowledge of humans uniquely positions you to combat the RDA. “You know how humans think,” says Jansén. “You know their gear, you know their tech, and that gives you an enormous advantage.”    </p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">A new world </h2>
<p class="">Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora is an expansion of the Avatar lore, and as a result Jansén and his team at Massive were afforded an exciting sense of freedom, one they wanted the game itself to reflect.   </p>
<p class="">“It brought me great joy very early on in the project when it was clear that Lightstorm didn’t want a game that repeated events that you see in the movies,” says Jansén. “In the world of Avatar, the joy comes from discovering and seeing mind-blowing new stuff.”   </p>
<p class="">With this in mind, Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora takes place on a never-before-seen region of Pandora: the Western Frontier. “The Western Frontier hasn’t been explored in any other media, and we’re excited to take players on an all-new adventure,” explains Jansén.   </p>

<iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/CpFL1Ib77hE" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe>
</div>
</div>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">First-person on the ground, third-person in the skies</h2>
<p class="">You’ll traverse the Western Frontier in first-person, a decision intended to immerse you fully into the body of a Na’vi. For Jansén, once again, it all comes down to that feeling of discovery and freedom.   </p>
<p class="">“So when I watched the first Avatar all those years ago, and then again with Avatar: The Way of Water, there’s this feeling when you first see Pandora, that it’s almost real, because the groundwork that went into creating it and the quality of execution is so impressive that it feels like a real place, and you instantly have this feeling that you want to go there,” says Jansén. “And I remember, walking out of the movie theater and almost feeling a little sad that I couldn’t.” </p>
<p class="">“My ultimate core goal is to make it possible for me, and you, to go to Pandora, and a first-person perspective is the best way to be immersed in a new place. There’s so much in the details and in the technology of Pandora, all these otherworldly, reactive things, and you want to touch them and see how they react. First-person was the most tactile, and most importantly, the most immersive,” says Jansén.  </p>
<a href="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52962701466_7a5d01e5eb_h.jpg" rel="noopener" target="_blank"><img alt="" src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52962701466_7a5d01e5eb_h.jpg"/></a>
<p class="">However, your perspective switches to third-person when you’re in the air, on the back of your very own customizable companion banshee, or ikran, which is pivotal to the core Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora experience. “Soaring through the skies is so key,” says Jansén. “And what the current generation of consoles has allowed us to do – with regards to how far we can render the speeds at which we can travel – meant we could really do it justice.”   </p>
<p class="">The way that you’ve customized your banshee, too, helps make it feel like it belongs to you; something that can only properly be seen in third-person. “The mission where you get your banshee is a central part of becoming a Na’vi, and you’ll get to really make it yours by naming it, equipping it with gear, and more,” says Jansén.  </p>
<a href="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52962100207_7e5761a78c_h.jpg" rel="noopener" target="_blank"><img alt="" src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52962100207_7e5761a78c_h.jpg"/></a>

<p class="">A varied lineup of exciting games coming to PlayStation was revealed in the Capcom Showcase livestream! From a new look at the highly anticipated Dragon’s Dogma 2, to the reveal of the Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney Trilogy, we featured games for all types of players.</p>
<p class="center"><a href="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52969484082_5598081a28_h.jpg" rel="noopener" target="_blank"><img alt="" src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52969484082_5598081a28_h.jpg" width="47%"/></a><a href="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52970453930_c3aa2f62cf_h.jpg" rel="noopener" target="_blank"><img alt="" src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52970453930_c3aa2f62cf_h.jpg" width="47%"/></a></p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Ascend, Arisen, and slay the dragon</h2>
<p class="">The Capcom Showcase dove deeper into Dragon’s Dogma 2, <a href="https://blog.playstation.com/2023/05/24/watch-the-first-trailer-for-dragons-dogma-2-capcoms-upcoming-action-rpg/">which made its grand unveiling just a few weeks ago</a> at the PlayStation Showcase. The game’s director, Hideaki Itsuno, explained a few of the game’s core elements, and revealed a bit about how the sequel is upping the ante on PlayStation 5.</p>
<p class="">At the heart of Dragon’s Dogma are two key features: the Pawn system, and best-in-class action-RPG combat. Pawns are AI controlled companions that join you on your adventures. You’ll take a main Pawn with you that can be customized to your heart’s content, and two others that can be hired from other players. With your party of up to four, you’ll enjoy companionship and camaraderie on your adventures.</p>
<a href="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52961081511_d7445d3688_h.jpg" rel="noopener" target="_blank"><img alt="" src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52961081511_d7445d3688_h.jpg"/></a>
<p class="">Dragon’s Dogma 2’s action is all about choice. Wield swords, bows, or magick, it’s all up to you. Your chosen vocation determines how your Arisen plays in combat, and there’s a wide variety to choose from. Choice is also a key part of combat scenarios. You’ll constantly be challenged to try and take on situations in your own way, whether it’s seeing what happens when you destroy a bridge or toppling a monster over by pulling their leg. </p>
<p class="center"><a href="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52970220484_2ebcf204ce_h.jpg" rel="noopener" target="_blank"><img alt="" src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52970220484_2ebcf204ce_h.jpg" width="47%"/></a><a href="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52970077681_a7136b26b4_h.jpg" rel="noopener" target="_blank"><img alt="" src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52970077681_a7136b26b4_h.jpg" width="47%"/></a></p>
<p class="">Dragon’s Dogma 2 leverages Capcom’s RE Engine, resulting in a densely populated world about four times the size of the original, woven with the latest graphical technology, physics technology and character AI to immerse you in its fantasy world.</p>
<p class="">Two important characters that are featured in the key art will play an important role in the Arisen’s journey. UIrika, a woman who wields a bow and has a deep connection to the Arisen, and Nadinia, a high priestess of the new beastren race, will impact the Arisen’s destiny and help shape their fate.</p>

<p class="">A brand-new title that depicts Kazuma Kiryu’s story after the events of Yakuza 6: The Song of Life. Featuring improved combat, new stages, and characters, an abundance of entertaining minigames, and a star-studded cast!</p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Story</h2>
<p class="">An Untold Story from Kazuma Kiryu’s Point of View – What must you sacrifice to protect the ones you love?</p>
<p class="">Having faked his own death to protect his loved ones, Kazuma Kiryu, the once-renowned yakuza, now lives in obscurity.</p>
<p class="">He occasionally receives missions as a secret agent for the Daidoji Faction, a shadowy organization that once operated as a fixer for the government. Kiryu’s very existence is kept a closely guarded secret within Daidoji. There he languishes away each day in his self-imposed solitude. Until one day, somebody arrives to drag Kiryu back into the fold.</p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">ULTIMATE COMBAT WITH TWO HIGH-IMPACT FIGHTING STYLES</h2>
<p class="">Dynamically switch between the Yakuza and Agent fighting styles in visceral melee combat. With the Yakuza Style, strike fear into enemies by unleashing wildly aggressive moves powered by Kiryu’s unparalleled strength and flair. Alternatively, up the ante with the Agent Style by delivering blows with absolute speed and precision, while using an array of high-tech gadgets like electrified bind wires to stun enemies and then send them flying. Strategically adapt to the situation and leverage both styles to dominate and destroy hordes of enemies.</p>

<p class="">Rogue Legacy 2 is landing on both the PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 on June 20. What’s more, it will be launching straight into the PlayStation Plus Game Catalog, so Extra and Premium members can download it straightaway and jump in! We’re going all-out by releasing RL2 with full cross-buy support for the PS4 to PS5. The game also includes the latest free content updates, the Fabled Heroes and the Swan Song, which are packed with additional challenges and exciting new game modes.</p>

<p class="">The original Rogue Legacy was released nearly a decade ago, and it’s incredible to think back on how it helped popularize roguelites on PlayStation. The community’s support for our little indie dream was nothing short of impossible. We were expecting a few hundred thousand players at best, but somehow ended up with more that 3.5 million across all PlayStation platforms. To say we were overwhelmed is an understatement.</p>
<p class="">With the upcoming aunch of Rogue Legacy 2 we’re excited to see if history will repeat itself. And to celebrate, Cellar Door Games is taking a look at some of our favourite roguelikes/lites (that aren’t Rogue Legacy) on PlayStation, and I’m giving some personal insight on what made them so great.</p>

</div>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Slay the Spire</h2>
<p class=""><strong>What it is:</strong> A deckbuilding roguelike where you slowly build your own deck as you ascend a tower.</p>
<p class=""><strong>What We Liked</strong>: One of the first deckbuilding roguelikes that truly capitalized on the “one more run” addiction. You can tell that the developers had a deep understanding of deck-building mechanics because of how well the cards synergize with one another. The balance and tempo throughout every run is also impeccable, both on the micro (enemy encounter length) and macro scale (time it takes to curate your final deck).</p>
<p class="">Aside from being incredibly solid and consistently fun, the map progression system is one of those things that had a real impact on the roguelike genre as a whole. Since the release of Slay the Spire, the ‘tower path’ progress format has been copied endlessly, because it’s just ridiculously elegant and simple.</p>

</div>
</div>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Crypt of the Necrodancer</h2>
<p class=""><strong>What it is:</strong> A dungeon-crawling roguelite where you move to the beat.</p>
<p class=""><strong>What We Liked:</strong> This is just an all-around fantastic rhythm-based roguelite. It’s fun, it’s crazy unique, and it’s incredibly catchy. But one of the coolest things it does is completely invisible to the player. If you slowly drift off-beat, the game will subtly change the tempo of the music in order to get you back on track. That level of player consideration isn’t seen in enough games these days.</p>
<p class="">It’s really easy to tell a game what you want it to do. If I press jump, I expect my character to jump. But what is ‘correct’ might not always be ‘fun’, because in reality nobody can play a game perfectly. Sometimes you might press the jump button a frame too late, and to compensate you need an input grace period when falling off a ledge, ubiquitously known as coyote time. Making a game feel good requires recognizing and accommodating player intent. Crypt of the Necrodancer understood this and implemented very creative ways to make it as enjoyable as possible.</p>

</div>
</div>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Gunfire Reborn</h2>
<p class=""><strong>What it is:</strong> A one-to-two-player looter shooter roguelite.</p>
<p class=""><strong>What We Liked:</strong> I’m a sucker for mobility shooters, and Gunfire Reborn is absolutely fantastic in this regard. I tend to avoid random number generation (RNG) heavy roguelites/likes where luck can sometimes play a bigger role than skill, but the balance of both in this game is pure joy, and the co-op is hard to beat. I also loved their take on class diversity and character build design. They streamline each class into only three-to-four specific builds but are unapologetically blunt about it.</p>

</div>
</div>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Hades</h2>
<p class=""><strong>What it is:</strong> You know what it is.</p>
<p class=""><strong>What We Liked:</strong> There’s so much to love about this game that it’s hard to choose only a few things, but what really stuck out to me was the narrative design. One of the major drawbacks to the “play it over and over” game loop of roguelikes/lites is how the story gets told. Since progress in these games isn’t always guaranteed, neither is progress in the narrative, which oftentimes makes it feel disjointed and repetitive. Hades somehow took the seemingly monotonous nature of repeated playthroughs and used it to its advantage. I won’t spoil anything, but because of that, there’s no story told quite like Hades.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">And so many more</h2>
<p class="">There are so many great roguelikes/lites out there that I could go on forever. We like to think the original Rogue Legacy played a tiny role in paving this path, one that even its sequel is now traversing. If you cherish creativity, then there are few genres that offer more variety than this one, and we’re excited to see how Rogue Legacy 2 pushes the boundaries even further. </p>
<p class="">We hope Rogue Legacy 2 ends up on some of your favourites lists as well when it launches on PlayStation June 20.</p>

                '<div class="post-single__content single__content entry-content">
<p class="">Arriving June 20 for PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5, The Elder Scrolls Online: Necrom introduces a brand-new way to play with the introduction of the Arcanist class. Boasting three unique skill lines and an all-new combat mechanic called the Crux system, Arcanists wield the eldritch powers of Apocrypha to obliterate their foes and protect their allies.</p>
<p class="">Get the inside scoop on each of the Arcanist’s three new skill lines from Brian Wheeler, Lead Combat Designer for ZeniMax Online Studios, and discover the arcane powers you can wield when exploring the Telvanni Peninsula and worlds beyond.</p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Herald of the Tome</h2>
<p class="">“The Herald of the Tome skill line is designed mostly around dealing damage to your enemies,” explains Wheeler. “There’s a wide variety of abilities here too, with some dishing out area-based effects while others focus on specific targets. There’s versatility in how you want to inflict pain on your enemies.”</p>
<p class="">When in design, the team knew the Arcanist had to stand out, so they focused on themes of cosmic horror and Hermaeus Mora’s Black Books, opening an eldritch portal to a wide selection of powers.</p>
<p class="">“Some abilities have a very crisp and precise look, while others are more chaotic and visceral,” says Wheeler. “In our testing, we saw players load up their entire action bar with Arcanist abilities, so we wanted to ensure that this skill line had a wide breadth of supporting visuals.”</p>
<p class="center"><img alt="" height="1080" src="https://media3.giphy.com/media/v1.Y2lkPTc5MGI3NjExNjY0MmM3MjM0OTNjNzNlZTFlOGYxODI1NWM3ODBiNjI2MzNlOThjOSZlcD12MV9pbnRlcm5hbF9naWZzX2dpZklkJmN0PWc/ix5N9N4oK49PXjfOf3/giphy.gif" width="1920"/></p>

<p class="">If any one ability captures the feel of the Herald of the Tome skill line, it is Fatecarver, which makes powerful use of the class’s new combat mechanic.</p>
<p class="">“We wanted players to channel pure arcane energy into a beam they could aim anywhere without requiring a target while also interacting with our new Crux system,” explains Wheeler. </p>
<p class="">“The more Crux you have, the harder the beam hits when you cast it.”</p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Curative Runeforms</h2>
<p class="">“Curative Runeforms adds healing and support to the Arcanist suite of abilities,” says Wheeler. </p>
<p class="">“Like the Herald of the Tome line, you can find some good synergies here blending single-target and area-based healing along with some new toys like Apocryphal Gate, granting mobility via a pair of portals.”</p>
<p class="center"><img alt="" height="1080" src="https://media0.giphy.com/media/v1.Y2lkPTc5MGI3NjExYjVkM2UzMjg4ZTc1MzUwMGFkZGQyZDlhODEyYmZlMGZmNGNhZDIwNSZlcD12MV9pbnRlcm5hbF9naWZzX2dpZklkJmN0PWc/2YpdWXTPJ3NtVjd9Rp/giphy.gif" width="1920"/></p>

<p class="">Being able to quickly identify what heals and what hurts is vitally important in the heat of battle, so the team made sure that despite having shared origins in Apocrypha, the damaging and healing skill lines appeared distinct.  </p>
<p class="">“This skill line has less ‘brutal chaotic’ looks to it, and we leaned into some of the watery or inky feel of Apocrypha,” says Wheeler. “For example, Arcanist Domain has a watery edge around its ability while also showing a cool animation as you fling out runes.” </p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Soldier of Apocrypha</h2>
<p class="">“The Soldier of Apocrypha skill line is focused mostly on taking damage and surviving,” explains Wheeler. “But there’s also some utility and support abilities to help control your foes. This includes several shield abilities that we refer to as ‘living buffs.’  These buffs aren’t just stat bonuses, as they also react to enemy actions by damaging them back or healing you!</p>
<p class="">Because of this focus, in addition to crown control, you can enjoy a lot of quick firing and self-focused abilities when welding the Soldier of Apocrypha skill line.</p>

<p class="">“A tank’s primary job is to protect their allies while absorbing any enemy damage onto themselves, so we gave the Arcanist a taunt. This is the first time a class in ESO has been given this functionality without relying on other skill lines.” The ability to taunt your foes is vitally important, but so is surviving the inevitable onslaught that comes as a result.</p>
<p class="">“Runespite Ward is one of the Arcanist’s standout abilities, as it provides great boosts to defense. One of the morphs for this ability, Impervious Runeward, provides even more armor during its first second, giving you the opportunity to time it to get maximum damage mitigation and retaliation!”</p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Unknowable powers await</h2>
<p class="">This is, of course, just a brief introduction to some of the eldritch powers that are available to you with the all-new Arcanist class. In addition to the three unique skill lines above, the Crux system allows you to further empower your abilities and customize the way you play.</p>
<p class="">Want to learn more? You’ll need to uncover the class’s weird and wondrous new abilities for yourself when The Elder Scrolls Online: Necrom arrives June 20 on PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5—good luck, and we’ll see you in Tamriel!</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Tiger Blade</h2>
<p class="">Tiger Blade brings all the stylish, adrenaline-soaked combat of the very best of Korean neo-noir action cinema to PS VR2. Slash and blast your way through ranks of hoodlums in a high stakes chase through the atmospheric and meticulously recreated marketplaces, docks, alleys, and streets of Sewoon. Set in an alternate Korea, you take the role of the deadliest assassin working for the Horangi chapter of the Tiger Clans. Ordered to steal a mysterious package from a rival chapter, you are shocked to find the object of the heist is, in fact, a tiger cub – thought extinct for a hundred years, the mythical creature is now desired by every gang in the city.</p>
<p class="">Tiger Blade is designed to be highly replayable, with a scoring and ranking system, online leaderboards, and speedrunning, and secondary objectives. The heart-pounding, non-stop action is further intensified thanks to haptic feedback, adaptive triggers, and headset rumble. To complete the Korean influence that runs through Tiger Blade, the action will be played to the beat of original Korean Hip-Hop. If you enjoyed the music for the trailer – ‘Seat Belt’ by SINCE – then you’re going to love what’s in store!</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The 7th Guest VR</h2>
<p class="">We are thrilled to announce that iconic 90s supernatural mystery, The 7th Guest, is being brought back to life with cutting-edge PS VR2 technology. The 7th Guest VR is a remake of the original game and its story with brand new puzzles, new spaces to explore and with a new technical benchmark of its own: 3D live-action graphics by way of ghostly volumetric video capture. We filmed our actors performing in a circular setup, surrounded by cameras to capture their every movement from every direction. These characters are then viewable from multiple perspectives as you play. Volumetric video capture plus exquisite performances help tell a visceral &amp; haunting story.</p>
<p class="">PS VR2 only enhances this experience. Eye-tracking allows you to delve into the intricate details of puzzles by focusing your eyes on specific pieces and areas within the rooms while the PS VR2 Sense controller’s adaptive triggers make every item feel tangible; PS VR2 headset feedback will convey the eerie presence of the characters as their stories unfold before your eyes. Plus, enhanced dynamic lighting and higher resolution volumetric video immerse you deeper into the chilling atmosphere.</p>
<p class="">The 7th Guest VR is coming to PS VR2 later this year and is perfect for fans of mystery-puzzle games and those seeking a new and haunting VR experience.</p>

                '<div class="post-single__content single__content entry-content">
<p class="">Before Escape Academy, Coin Crew Games produced location-based entertainment (LBE) experiences such as escape rooms and arcade cabinets. Producing an escape room called Space Squad in Space is how Wyatt Bushnell and Mike Salyh met, placing them on the path to founding Coin Crew Games. </p>
<p class="">The original goal for the studio was to design casual arcade experiences for large groups of friends to have some friendly competition. These first arcade cabinets took the shape of the licensed racing machine Hot Wheels: King of the Road and Coin Crew Game’s first original title, Battle Bowling.</p>
<p class="center"><a href="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52973457605_bce3efb571_b.jpg" rel="noopener" target="_blank"><img alt="" height="1080" src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52973457605_bce3efb571_b.jpg" width="1920"/></a></p>
<p class="has-text-align-center"><em>Battle Bowling pits up to four people against each other who must frantically spin a large orb to navigate a hazardous track and knock over the most pins. It will bowl your mind.</em></p>
<p class="">During the development of our third cabinet, the pandemic struck, forcing the closure of physical entertainment spaces. We figured out how to translate our talent and experience into a digital title. This exploration brought us to the idea of bringing the escape room experience to the digital space. </p>
<p class="">And thus, Escape Academy was born!</p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The difference in physical versus digital and making the transition</h2>
<p class="">Unlike most digital titles, physical experiences range from three to sixty minutes, so a key component is ensuring the game is immediately understandable with zero tutorialization. Players need to understand the objective simply by looking at the cabinet. Becoming practiced at simplicity was a key component in making Escape Academy accessible.</p>
<a href="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52973217804_efb065bc59_b.jpg" rel="noopener" target="_blank"><img alt="" height="1080" src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52973217804_efb065bc59_b.jpg" width="1920"/></a>
<p class="has-text-align-center"><em>In the case of Hot Wheels: King of the Road, the goal is simple. Outdrive your friends and be the first to the finish line.</em></p>
<p class="">Regarding puzzle design, an essential component is building clues and ways for players to deduce the solution. In real-life escape rooms, <em>everything</em> is a potential clue at first glance, so players spend much of the experience inspecting objects to determine their relevance to the puzzles. To recreate this digitally, every object in the environment must be programmed as an interactable, which posed a challenge scope-wise.</p>
<p class="">This engineering limitation made us decide to be very selective about what pieces of the environment became interactable, which afforded us much control over guiding the player’s path through the room. This was a critical way that balanced our rooms and ensured that all the puzzles remained accessible instead of overwhelming. Naturally, this “balancing” process takes some trial and error. However, Coin Crew Games had already established a rigorous playtesting regiment for their physical experiences which was another essential part of the process needing a digital translation.</p>
<p class="">In the past, we would observe people playing and note how they moved through the space, their body posture, and how many quarters they put into the machine. The shift to digital evolved into running 2-6 playtests a week while the players’ screen shared their game view and team members observed the play patterns. We encouraged our playtesters to discuss their thought processes while solving puzzles to hone in on misleading clues.</p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Art and environment</h2>
<p class="">Operating in the digital space allows for immense latitude in environment design because the laws of physics, space constraints, or pesky safety waivers no longer restrain us. However, we had to establish certain pillars around our environment design to service the gameplay and keep things focused.</p>
<p class="">The most important principle we established was to have the setting of each room allow for varied but thematically consistent puzzles. Placing a computer-based, binary cipher in the cafeteria wouldn’t feel right thematically, and placing an entire escape room level inside the janitor’s closet wouldn’t allow for a deep pool of diverse puzzles. </p>
<a href="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52973075646_0f1ffa755a_h.jpg" rel="noopener" target="_blank"><img alt="" height="1080" src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52973075646_0f1ffa755a_h.jpg" width="1920"/></a>
<p class="has-text-align-center"><em>Pictured above is the level “Escape Artist,” which was themed around art class, unlocking the ability to lean into spatial reasoning and other visually driven puzzles.</em></p>
<p class="">Another piece of escape room design that digital environments allowed for flexibility in was the rooms’ “ticking clocks,” aka the in-universe reason for there to be a time limit. Things such as the flooding tower or the burning library are ticking clocks that are only possible in the video game medium. After confirming that a room’s theming could adequately supply the puzzle design space, narrative and puzzle teams worked together to establish exciting stakes that could be represented in level through art, sound, and the story.</p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Iteration and expansion</h2>
<p class="">The ability to update, iterate, and respond to feedback within the product itself is yet another vast boon that digital titles offer, and it’s one we’ve done our best to take advantage of in a myriad of different ways. In the case of our upcoming DLC, Escape from the Past, we’re telling a prequel story centered around a whodunnit at the Academy that gives the player agency over the mystery itself.</p>
<a href="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52973075611_4ce82c5199_h.jpg" rel="noopener" target="_blank"><img alt="" height="1080" src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52973075611_4ce82c5199_h.jpg" width="1920"/></a>
<p class="has-text-align-center"><em>Without giving players a chance to solve the case in level, we feared the “whodunnit” would feel unsatisfying. This challenge forced us to push our escape room mechanics to their limits.</em></p>
<p class="">We explored ways to give our players agency in the mystery and enmesh the narrative more tightly with the puzzles to lean into the premise. This resulted in hiding related clues throughout all levels, allowing players to identify the culprit. We also developed a new mechanic that features a branching sequence in the final level that takes players on a different puzzle path depending on which faculty member they accuse of being the culprit. </p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">We’re not going anywhere</h2>
<p class="">After releasing our first digital title, the Coin Crew Games team was delighted to be met with such a warm welcome to the indie development scene. The interactions with players, developers, and the PlayStation Indies team have been stellar, and we can’t wait to keep working with everyone to build exciting digital experiences that leverage our physical background.</p>
<p class="">Don’t forget to keep your eyes peeled for Escape Academy: Escape from the Past, releasing June 19, and future Escape Academy updates.</p>

<p class="">Greetings, Wanderers! Get ready to immerse yourself in a world of boundless exploration and adrenaline-pumping battles. Tower of Fantasy, the immersive open-world RPG brought to you by Perfect World Games, is making its grand debut on PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 on August 8th (UTC+0), and pre-order is officially open today. Brace yourselves as you craft your very own one-of-a-kind character and embark on an unforgettable journey, either alone or alongside your friends. This world awaits your arrival.</p>
<p class="">Let’s dive into some of the amazing features that will make your journey truly extraordinary. </p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Liu Huo, the fierce fighter with an artistic soul</h2>
<p class="">After the release on PlayStation, all wanderers can take an adventure in the map called Domain 9, filled with eastern aesthetics. You’ll also encounter an intriguing character named Liu Huo—a spirited and formidable girl with an undeniable passion for martial arts. She loves to wear a vibrant red dress reflecting her prowess in combat and her role as the guardian of Farewellville. However, there’s more to Liu Huo than meets the eye. Beyond her rough exterior lies a burning passion for the arts, particularly painting, and calligraphy. Join Liu Huo as she strives to balance her pursuit of elegance with her spirited nature, and witness firsthand the extraordinary journey that awaits her.</p>
<a href="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52975679628_4ce51ac1fc_h.jpg" rel="noopener" target="_blank"><img alt="" height="1080" src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52975679628_4ce51ac1fc_h.jpg" width="1920"/></a>
<p class="">To reflect Liu Huo’s personality, we put a lot of thought into designing her appearance, combat actions, and skill effects. There are many eastern elements can be found in Liu Huo’s appearance. Her outer garment is made of silk with embroidered golden patterns on the collar. Her weapon is a giant brush called Pine Comet, which suits her refined taste. Additionally, the character “霸”  is written on her legs, symbolizing her dominant personality. </p>
<a href="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52974629992_b564a7033b_h.jpg" rel="noopener" target="_blank"><img alt="" height="1080" src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52974629992_b564a7033b_h.jpg" width="1920"/></a> 



<p class="">When designing her combat moves, we fused calligraphy and martial arts, capturing the essence of ink painting. We utilized vibrant blue and orange flames to intensify the visual impact, employing brushstrokes to convey varying levels of intensity. As Liu Huo unleashes her weapon “Pine Comet” in battle, it’s as if she wields a brush, evoking a formidable presence. However, keen-eyed observers familiar with Chinese characters might catch a stroke error. It appears that Liu Huo still has room to grow on her path to be a real artist.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Immersive PS5 features</h2>
<p class="">The DualSense wireless controller allows us to provide an immersive experience through haptic feedback. During intense battles, when hitting enemies or facing moments of crisis with significant blood loss, the controller’s haptics help you accurately assess the current combat environment. Outside of combat, appropriate haptics during key story moments create a thrilling experience. When racing, the controller’s vibrations accompany intense collisions, making it feel like a steering wheel and immersing you in the excitement of high-speed racing.</p>
<p class="">Moreover, you can communicate with teammates through the controller’s built-in microphone, making the vast world less lonely.</p>

<p class="">At the same time, the stunning 4K graphics and visual effects of the PS5 provide players with a high-resolution gaming experience. Currently, Tower of Fantasy features diverse map styles, including the sci-fi wasteland style of Aesperia, the cyberpunk metropolis of Mirroria, the deep underwater world of Innars, and the upcoming magical eastern world of Domain 9. In the 4K mode on PlayStation, the neon lights of Mirroria become mesmerizing, the Grand Sea undergoes dynamic changes, and the clouds and red maple of Domain 9 exhibit a mysterious eastern charm, further enhancing the visual experience.</p>

                '<div class="post-single__content single__content entry-content">
<p class="">Hello readers! We’re very proud to launch <em>Harmony: The Fall of Reverie</em> on PlayStation 5 on June 22<sup>nd</sup>. It’s a narrative adventure with two vibrant worlds, a cast of loveable characters, and a compelling story we hope all kinds of players will enjoy.  </p>
<p class="">One of the main features of our game is the Augural, and that’s what we’d like to talk about in this blog. The Augural is the game board and visual representation of our main character, Polly’s, gift of clairvoyance. It is the place in which you will foresee and make all your choices in <em>Harmony: The Fall of Reverie</em>.  </p>
<p class="">We wanted to the Augural to be a peaceful and beautiful place where you can prepare your next move without any stress. That’s why the Augural is set against a placid lake reflecting a starlit sky, and this starlight conveys the idea of an astronomical map where fates can be deciphered. </p>
<p class="">When we first set out to build the Augural, the intention was to offer significant choices that were well-informed, so you need never be surprised or caught off guard by the decisions you make. From there, it evolved naturally into a way to expose the ‘core’ of the story and show how events are connected to one another. We wanted to do something new in the Choices Matter sub-genre.  </p>
<p class="">We experimented with graphs and trees during conceptualization. One of our main references was Augury, the Ancient Greek art of divination, which they performed because they believed that the gods were willing to communicate with mortals. This was a good way for us to make the link between Polly’s clairvoyance and this method of representing it.  </p>
<a href="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52980132003_07ba6d51d4_h.jpg" rel="noopener" target="_blank"><img alt="" height="1080" src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52980132003_07ba6d51d4_h.jpg" width="1920"/></a>

<p class=""></p>
<p class="">But it came with its challenges – we wanted you to feel the gift of clairvoyance and still be surprised by how the story unfolds. The biggest issue however was readability; the Augural went through quite a few iterations!  </p>
<p class="">Some versions that we experimented with but ultimately didn’t make it into the game are more complex trees that would spread in several directions, cards that would reveal themselves on the board as the story progressed, and at one point there was even a building you could rotate in 3D! In the end, we made the system more user-friendly with lots of testing, removing any unnecessary visual elements, simplifying the background, improving readability at any level of zoom, and spent a lot of time tweaking the navigation. </p>

<p class="">As the Augural is a very visual way of playing, we had to create a system in which you can see even the seemingly trivial decisions eventually build up to greater outcomes down the line. This is so you can visualize how you’re going to play to reach the outcomes you seek. During the game you’ll also make decisions which have an immediate impact on the story and unlock branches while closing access to others.  </p>
<p class="">When it comes to the bigger decisions, you’ll use Crystals. This resource, which is your connection between the two worlds, is another unique aspect of the game which you will see and manage in the Augural. As the story progresses, you’ll gather Crystals from the Aspirations – ancient godlike beings living in Reverie – that you’ve helped or been helped by during your journey. Which Crystals you use and from whom will feed that Aspirations’ influence on the real world until one of them ends up standing above the others as the heart of humanity… perhaps. </p>
<p class=""><em>Harmony: The Fall of Reverie</em> is a game that relies on story and gameplay responding fluidly to one another – the complexity of the story mustn’t be an obstacle to comprehension. We think we’ve managed to pull it off, but we’d love for you to play and let us know what you think!  <em>Harmony: The Fall of Reverie</em> releases on 22<sup>nd</sup> June on PlayStation 5.</p>

<p class="">Hi readers, Jae here, founder of Studio Sai. Today I have some exciting insights to reveal about the importance of the relationships you make in Eternights and how they can affect your combat options, help you defeat monsters, and ultimately face the apocalypse with you. Studio Sai was founded on the principle of making games that emphasize the forging of relationships, so you can tell this is an incredibly significant element of the game for me and has been throughout development.</p>

<p class="">Eternights’ combat is inspired by a lot of hack ‘n’ slash greats where you unlock more and more special moves and combos as you progress through the game. You have a special skill gauge that receives a boost every time you execute a “perfect dodge.” Those perfect dodges will be your fuel when unleashing a variety of skills and counters onto your enemy.</p>
<p class="center"><img alt="" src="https://media3.giphy.com/media/v1.Y2lkPTc5MGI3NjExNDE1ZTlmYjk0MDViODA3OTgzNzFiNzY0ZmVmZWZjNDc4YTg4MTI3NSZlcD12MV9pbnRlcm5hbF9naWZzX2dpZklkJmN0PWc/hTULZxCgBKzUYlFQYC/giphy.gif"/></p>
<p class="">What we’ve done with the combat in Eternights is have companions fight with you. Each companion has their own supporting skills that can be used in battle, such as Yuna’s various healing abilities, Sia’s ice attacks to debuff enemies, and Min’s barrier skills to increase your resistance to enemy attacks and hazards. Companions can also unlock new elemental attacks for your character, which you can use to break elemental shields that some tougher enemies might have and use super effective elemental attacks that are advantageous against an enemy’s element.</p>
<p class="center"><img alt="" src="https://media3.giphy.com/media/v1.Y2lkPTc5MGI3NjExZmYyYWUxODlhMDI3Zjc5NTkzMDQ5ZDgwYzIzZDhkMmE5NzU1MzU3MSZlcD12MV9pbnRlcm5hbF9naWZzX2dpZklkJmN0PWc/s2T7k5cCGP2bTcnSki/giphy.gif"/></p>
<p class="">Now, this is when relationships become vital to succeeding in combat because to get these supportive skills, you need to increase your relationship rank with each companion. This unlocks a variety of skills and upgrades abilities relating to each companion’s specialism.</p>
<p class="center"><img alt="" src="https://media1.giphy.com/media/v1.Y2lkPTc5MGI3NjExMzM1MTMwMTYzMDdkNjkyZGVhMWRlNWJmZDVkNTg5YjExMmMzYzkxMSZlcD12MV9pbnRlcm5hbF9naWZzX2dpZklkJmN0PWc/oShYm15A7E2B6c2VAv/giphy.gif"/></p>
<p class="">You can increase your rank with different characters by improving your relationship XP with them. You can do this via a multitude of activities, sometimes platonic, sometimes romantic, if you choose. Some examples include scavenging different areas for items that are important to each companion, training with them by completing their special minigames, spending time with them and getting to know them through your dialogue options, and exploring the city and fighting with one companion specifically. The catch is that the end of the world is nigh, and you only have limited time to manage all the activities with your companions. Some of these activities can only be done in the daytime or the nighttime, so you’ll need to choose your activities and plan your calendar wisely.</p>
<p class="center"><img alt="" src="https://media3.giphy.com/media/v1.Y2lkPTc5MGI3NjExYmZkODVjNzRhYWQxYjE5ZmU1NThlOTRlOTU2NGFmMjMxYjAxMWIzNCZlcD12MV9pbnRlcm5hbF9naWZzX2dpZklkJmN0PWc/hqoIF7FTOUQEWxUWUE/giphy.gif"/></p>
<p class="">Before you can reach deeper relationship ranks with a companion, you also need to increase your own character’s traits based on what your chosen companion would admire. You can do this by picking dialogue options that signify that trait and providing more XP for it. For example, with Yohan, he admires courage, so you’d need a specific level of courage by interpreting and choosing the most courageous dialogue options. Yohan provides great buffs to your character and other companions, which is another good reason to date him.</p>

<p class="">I’m so excited that Eternights launches September 21 this year and is available to pre-order on PS5 &amp; PS4. </p>

<p class="">The Wumpa Fruit is calling, and it’s nearly time to open the gates. Experience a whole new way to Crash with the upcoming launch of Crash Team Rumble, arriving today, June 20 for PlayStation 4 and 5.</p>
<p class="">Developed by Toys for Bob, this all-new strategic multiplayer experience brings 4v4 platforming action to the Crash universe, featuring eight crazy characters and nine wild arenas at launch. Your team’s goal? Collect and bank the most Wumpa Fruit. Though strategically deep, it’s easy to pick up and play, making Crash Team Rumble a great title for Crash veterans and new players alike.</p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Scorers, Blockers, and Boosters</h2>
<a href="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52973486300_f1d628cf72_h.jpg" rel="noopener" target="_blank"><img alt="" height="1080" src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52973486300_f1d628cf72_h.jpg" width="1920"/></a>
<p class="">In their pursuit for fruit, each character will use their own unique abilities in addition to fulfilling one of three important roles as a Scorer, Blocker, or Booster. Scorers excel at moving around the map to collect and bank Wumpa, Blockers fight to prevent enemy players from depositing Wumpa at their bank, and Boosters collect Relics to activate map-specific, tide-turning Relic Stations and capture Gem Pads, which provide temporary multipliers to their team’s Wumpa deposits.</p>
<p class="">With eight characters available at launch plus more coming in post-launch content, there are plenty of ways to approach each match. For now, let’s focus on three of our characters: Catbat, N. Brio, and N. Tropy.</p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Catbat</h2>
<a href="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52972508377_4cd489898b_h.jpg" rel="noopener" target="_blank"><img alt="" height="1080" src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52972508377_4cd489898b_h.jpg" width="1920"/></a>
<p class="has-text-align-center"><em>Some Characters and Cosmetics featured in these screenshots available in-season.</em></p>
<p class="">A speedy Scorer with unmatched aerial mobility, Catbat is an all-new playable character in the Crash universe, equipped with a long-ranged dive attack and the ability to jump five times higher than other characters, making it easy to access hard-to-reach areas on the map.</p>
<p class="">Catbat also supports teammates with their healing ability to keep them going during the toughest combat encounters while easily engaging and disengaging opponents through use of their aerial maneuvers — they can even stall in the air to wait out the most dangerous situations below.</p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">N. Brio</h2>
<a href="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52973486050_13ad4373fa_h.jpg" rel="noopener" target="_blank"><img alt="" height="1080" src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52973486050_13ad4373fa_h.jpg" width="1920"/></a>
<p class="">A high-risk, high-reward powerhouse, N. Brio is a Blocker who controls the battlefield with summoned monsters. By throwing flasks on the ground, he can summon up to two slime monsters that attack enemy opponents. The monsters also make for great jumping pads, allowing N. Brio to bounce off them for a major height boost.</p>
<p class="">By drinking his potion, he can transform himself into a huge monster, smashing anything in his path for a short time. Timing is critical, however: N. Brio is vulnerable to enemy attacks during the transformation process. </p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">N. Tropy</h2>
<a href="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52973559993_d397e26f9f_h.jpg" rel="noopener" target="_blank"><img alt="" height="1080" src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52973559993_d397e26f9f_h.jpg" width="1920"/></a>
<p class="">The self-proclaimed master of time, N. Tropy is a ranged Blocker who sweeps the battlefield with large, slow-moving projectiles that can knock the enemy away. Using her long attack range, she chases down and pesters the enemy team from a safe distance.</p>
<p class="">When working in tandem with a powerful melee Blocker like Dingodile, N. Tropy really comes into her own, providing valuable ranged damage while her teammate takes on the brunt of the attack.</p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Post-launch expands the roster and more</h2>
<a href="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52973559833_d22e664ab0_h.jpg" rel="noopener" target="_blank"><img alt="" height="1080" src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52973559833_d22e664ab0_h.jpg" width="1920"/></a>
<p class="">Expect the roster of characters to expand with additional post-launch content, including two more characters arriving later in Season 1. Other post-launch content includes new arenas, modes, powers, time-limited events, customization options, and more.</p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Standard vs. Deluxe Editions</h2>
<p class="">Purchase Crash Team Rumble for $29.99 SRP for the Standard Edition and $39.99 SRP for the Deluxe Edition. The Standard Edition includes the full game plus additional post-launch seasonal content and limited-time modes, as well as the Season 1 Premium Battle Pass*.</p>
<p class="">The Deluxe Edition includes everything in the Standard Edition plus 25 Battle Pass Tiers instantly unlocked during Season 1, the Season 2 Premium Battle Pass**, and the digital “Proto Pack,” which features extra customization options for each hero and villain at launch and more.</p>
<p class="has-small-font-size"><em>* Premium Battle Pass will be accessible in Crash Team Rumble once the Season 1 Battle Pass, or equivalent system, is made available in-game. Limited time only. Season 1 Premium Battle Pass (or equivalent version) must be redeemed by September 12, 2023.</em></p>

<p class="">Hello everyone, I’m Yasuyoshi Yamamura, Art Director at Q-Games. Today I have some development insights to share with you to celebrate the upcoming release of our frantic party-brawler, PixelJunk Scrappers Deluxe.</p>
<a href="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52974658936_509ad90941_h.jpg" rel="noopener" target="_blank"><img alt="" height="1080" src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52974658936_509ad90941_h.jpg" width="1920"/></a>
<p class="has-text-align-center"><em>Yasuyoshi Yamamura, Art Director at Q-Games</em></p>
<p class="">Since the launch of the very first PixelJunk game on PS3 in 2007, PlayStation has been the spiritual home of the series. From PixelJunk Shooter to Monsters, Racers to Eden; PlayStation players have always supported our goal to explore cool genre mixes and new mechanics. We’re excited to be making a return later this year as PixelJunk Scrappers Deluxe prepares to punch in on PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5.</p>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Land of the rising fun</strong></h3>
<p class="">Set within a post-apocalyptic world where robots rule and garbage is overflowing, players control a team of robot Scrappers and brawl through the streets of Junktown to clear as much trash as possible. I enjoy drawing robots as a personal hobby, so when one of our game directors had the idea for a game about robot garbage collectors, I was desperate to get started.</p>
<p class="center"><img alt="" height="1080" src="https://media2.giphy.com/media/v1.Y2lkPTc5MGI3NjExNjVkNmI3NDIxMDE5ZTA5ODY2MmE1YjFjNjBlMDM2MTMzN2UyYTY0MyZlcD12MV9pbnRlcm5hbF9naWZzX2dpZklkJmN0PWc/Yp54RnLrpWEGr3o0iu/giphy.gif" width="1920"/></p>
<p class="has-text-align-center"><em>Clean up the streets of Junktown as a trash collecting robot</em></p>
<p class="">Q-Games has been making games in Kyoto for 23 years and we often take subconscious inspiration from the world around us. But this time, we chose to deliberately bring the game to life using elements of Japanese culture that mean a lot to us. </p>
<p class="">Stages are spread across five areas of Junktown, with the first four taking inspiration from real locations in Japan. When it came to art direction, I made the decision to take an authentic look at Japan… and then turn it on its head.</p>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Idol animation</strong></h3>
<p class="">Haruhabara was inspired by the famous shopping district of Akihabara mixed with the striking fashion district Harajuku. I did a lot of research to pick out the iconic aspects that are recognisable. </p>
<p class="center"><img alt="" height="1080" src="https://media3.giphy.com/media/v1.Y2lkPTc5MGI3NjExend2M282dG5kZ2FuNjNkd3p6bGhhbmpzNzc4MTZwcXl2NzM5M3I0eSZlcD12MV9pbnRlcm5hbF9naWZfYnlfaWQmY3Q9Zw/suWZecO4IkuC4QFeNy/giphy.gif" width="1920"/></p>
<p class="has-text-align-center"><em>Haruhabara – inspired by ‘Electric Town’ Akihabara and fashion district Harajuku.</em></p>
<p class="">As well as being famous for video game and electronics stores, Akihabara is well known for its idol culture and I wanted to create enemies that fit that theme. I began sketching three members of what would become Trinity Lovers, the enemy idol group, and based their style on famous J-Pop groups like Perfume. I’ve always been a big fan of robot anime, particularly the old-school trope where things combine to become bigger robots, so we designed the boss sequence to allow the Trinity Lover idols to fuse together for the final showdown.</p>
<a href="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52974803359_0fa91d7ba4_h.jpg" rel="noopener" target="_blank"><img alt="" height="1080" src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52974803359_0fa91d7ba4_h.jpg" width="1920"/></a>
<p class="has-text-align-center"><em>Trinity Lovers enemy design, from concept to final</em></p>
<p class="">The Trinity Lovers are of course supported by their hardcore fans, known as Otabots, who attack players by doing Otagei. This choreographed audience routine of waving neon batons in time to a musical performance is a popular part of Japanese idol culture. The final boss is fought during a live concert, so players must learn the routine to steer clear of incoming attacks.</p>
<a href="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52974803364_6916954d2b_b.jpg" rel="noopener" target="_blank"><img alt="" height="1080" src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52974803364_6916954d2b_b.jpg" width="1920"/></a>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Hometown homage</strong></h3>
<p class="">An area themed around our home city was an early idea that we were keen to get exactly right. Kawaii Kyoto makes up Area 4 and is based on Edo Japan, with huge torii gates and old shrines. We had a lot of fun working out how they would fit into our futuristic setting.</p>
<p class="center"><img alt="" height="1080" src="https://media0.giphy.com/media/v1.Y2lkPTc5MGI3NjExNDQ0YTU1MDg3YThlM2M5MGNiZmM5YWI2NjI2YjUxZjU0YzUzOWI0YSZlcD12MV9pbnRlcm5hbF9naWZzX2dpZklkJmN0PWc/Nroj0XaM8P6AZHhh7k/giphy.gif" width="1920"/></p>
<p class="">Kyoto also hosts a lot of famous festivals or matsuri, including Gion Matsuri, where the streets are lined with food vendors and stalls. Our studio looks out over the route of the main festival and we get together every year as a company to watch the parade, so being able to include matsuri<em> </em>elements into PixelJunk Scrappers Deluxe was really cool. Our team attended a lot of events for level design inspiration and ate a bunch of delicious food, which was of course… purely for research.</p>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Breezy rider</strong></h3>
<p class="">When it came to character designs, I incorporated a lot of festival iconography and created a series of enemy robots based on popular activities and traditions. These include the 400 year old Awa Dance from Tokushima Prefecture in Japan which is used as an attack by Awadoribots, and the Tengubots who are based on a legendary yokai spirit.</p>
<a href="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52974062367_8e3d88250f_h.jpg" rel="noopener" target="_blank"><img alt="" height="1080" src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52974062367_8e3d88250f_h.jpg" width="1920"/></a>
<p class="has-text-align-center"><em>[Matsuri inspired enemy design]</em></p>
<p class="">One of my favourite enemy designs is the biker punk Bosu-zoku that rides around on koinobori, traditional Japanese flags that flow like carp when hung in the breeze.

<p class="">The last thing I want to share is our tribute to the traditional Japanese lion dance, Shishimai. I started out by drawing the concept sketch below as a background element for one of the areas, but as development continued, we became pretty attached to the design. </p>

<p class="">The traditional performing art is a big part of Japanese culture and there’s a very famous shrine only 1 hour away from the Q-Games studio called Namba Yasaka, which has a huge lion sculpture at the entrance. After some re-working and design expansions, the Shishimai King boss was born! Shishimai traditionally symbolises incoming good luck and fortune, and there’s a very big fortune to be cashed in once this ferocious enemy is defeated at the end of Area 4.</p>

<p class="">Developing a new numbered Final Fantasy game is a balancing act. Players have expectations of what they’ll encounter but still crave elements that change up and build upon established series traditions. But even those have to start somewhere: many elements commonly associated with Final Fantasy as a whole–Chocobos, Moogles, summons, and beloved job classes and abilities–were, at one point, completely alien to the series. Finding a delicate balance between tradition and innovation is always challenging, especially so with Final Fantasy XVI, the first numbered game in the long-running series to fully eschew menu-driven battles in favor of real-time combat. </p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">From Active Time Battle to fighting in real-time</h2>
<p class="">Elements of action gameplay have evolved in Final Fantasy over time, beginning with the implementation of the “Active Time Battle” system in Final Fantasy IV. This upped the pressure on players by forcing them to respond quickly and consider the order in which enemies and allies would be able to act. Waffling on crucial decisions could prove costly, as foes would continue their onslaught no matter how long it took you to input your commands. (If you want to check out the genesis of Active Time Battle, you can play the Final Fantasy IV-VI Pixel Remasters now available on PlayStation.)</p>
<p class="center"><a href="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52989510024_448b5a0403_4k.jpg" rel="noopener" target="_blank"><img alt="" src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52989510024_448b5a0403_4k.jpg" width="460"/></a><a href="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52989736905_e203d052b3_b.jpg" rel="noopener" target="_blank"><img alt="" src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52989736905_e203d052b3_b.jpg" width="460"/></a></p>
<p class="has-text-align-center"><em>Final Fantasy IV (left) and Final Fantasy XII (right) </em></p>
<p class="">Active Time Battle would serve as the mechanical basis for most numbered Final Fantasy games going forward, with the positioning-driven open-field combat of Final Fantasy XII and the dynamic, on-the-fly role-swapping battles of the Final Fantasy XIII saga building on many of the concepts ATB solidified. Final Fantasy XV moved many of the typical menu commands to face buttons, shifting combat in a decidedly action-focused direction. </p>

<p class="has-text-align-center"><em>Final Fantasy XV (left) and Final Fantasy VII Remake (right) </em></p>
<p class="">Even with this gradual evolution, many modern Final Fantasy games, notably the Final Fantasy VII Remake series, still use some hybrid of menu- and action-driven gameplay. FFXVI going full-on action-RPG surprised many hardcore fans, who wondered how this may impact the “essence” of Final Fantasy. To talk about developing FFXVI to evolve the franchise while satisfying existing fans, we sat down with producer Naoki Yoshida and director Hiroshi Takai to dive deeper into their process. </p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Action and drama make for great stories</h2>
<p class="">Yoshida’s love for Final Fantasy blossomed from the very beginning of the series. “Final Fantasy I was an important gaming experience for me,” he says. “I bought it on launch day, and I remember how confused I was when I booted it up and there was no title screen. Then you leave town and cross the bridge, and up comes the Final Fantasy logo! I was blown away that a video game could feel so cinematic, and that’s what I wanted to recapture with this new game—the feeling that you’re playing the leading role in an epic movie.” </p>
<p class="">“So yes, I grew up on turn-based RPGs, and they still have a special place in my heart,” he remarks. </p>
<a href="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52989831343_31881ad74e_4k.jpg" rel="noopener" target="_blank"><img alt="" src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52989831343_31881ad74e_4k.jpg"/></a>
<p class="">“We decided to go with real-time combat in FFXVI for two main reasons. The first is simply that most of the members of our development team are gamers, and recently, most of us have been into action games. The controller-gripping combat in those games really makes you want to pour hours into them. The other reason is that, in today’s market, going with an action combat system that anyone can get to grips with quickly and easily was our best way of appealing to the largest audience.</p>
<p class="">“By interweaving the real-time action with a fantastical story, we believed that we could create a game that was still Final Fantasy at heart. And, of course, when we say we want to appeal to the largest audience possible, that includes stalwart fans of turn-based games and those who aren’t the greatest at action games, too. We’ve put systems in place so that anyone of any skill level can enjoy the game just as much as a seasoned action gamer—maybe even more.”</p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Soul of Final Fantasy</h2>
<p class="">Yoshida, a veteran producer who helmed the universally praised reboot of Final Fantasy XIV, also recognizes the expectations that come with the Final Fantasy name. “Making things different for the sake of it is the easy option,” he says. “For me, the key elements to an FF game are the cinematic presentation, the gripping story, and the battle system that underpins it all–not to mention the cutting-edge graphics and evocative soundscape. The combination of all those things, plus the fact that the world, story, and characters change with each installment, makes it feel like a series that is always breaking new boundaries. As Hironobu Sakaguchi, the father of the series, once said, ‘Final Fantasy is what the director at the time thinks is best.’” </p>

</div>
</div>
<p class="">“FFXVI is no exception–the whole team worked together to make the very best game we could. The challenge we set ourselves was to change things up while keeping the game recognizably Final Fantasy. For instance, the classic high fantasy setting was inspired by the time-honored FFI. When you play through FFXVI, there are lots of little touches and nods to that game.” </p>
<p class="">Director Hiroshi Takai chimes in with his perspective. “One of the stand-out things about the franchise is that every one of the games in the mainline series brings with it a whole new world, story, and gameplay experience. It’s the shared elements that tie them together–the summons, the spells, the Chocobos and the Moogles–as well as the things that always change between entries, like the battle system–that make Final Fantasy games unique. Maybe the reason the players have stuck with the series so long is because we’ve always stayed true to the vision Yoshida mentioned–striving to make the very best game they can at that particular moment.”</p>
<p class="">“I’ve also played every installment in the franchise and have been involved in the making of a fair few of them,” Takai continues. “So naturally, I’ve taken a lot of inspiration from past games, even on a subconscious level. For example, I loved the customizable ability system from FFV–that idea formed the basis of the new battle system in FFXVI.”</p>
<p class="">Perhaps the most recognizably Final Fantasy element in FFXVI are the Eikons–summoned monsters known by many different terms like “Eidolons,” “Espers,” “Guardian Forces,” and more throughout the series. Takai explained their place in FFXVI. </p>
<p class="">“The classic Summons take a leading role in both the story and the battle system,” he says. “Even though we’re switching over to an action battle system with this game, it’s all centered around the Summons, which gives it that all-important Final Fantasy flavor.”</p>

</div>
</div>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">A worthy successor</h2>
<p class="">Even with all of their passion and effort put into the game, the team acknowledges that some players might not see Final Fantasy the same way they do. “Every FF fan around the world has a different idea of what makes for the perfect FF game,” notes Yoshida. “And as a fan myself, I’m sure my own idea differs from everyone else’s. So while we always knew that it would be impossible to satisfy the expectations of the whole fanbase, Takai, [Kazutoyo] Maehiro, and the whole of the development team took the approach to make the game we wanted to make while at the same time keeping an objective eye on the fans’ expectations. I think it’s important to always try to remain objective about your own work, even if it’s only for your own peace of mind.”</p>
<p class="">Takai is optimistic that fans will find a lot to enjoy about FFXVI upon its release date. “I hope that Clive’s story, and the hopes and dreams of all the people of Valisthea whose path he crosses, will stay with players. The decisions that Clive and his friends make are seen and judged differently by the different people of the realm, and I think there’s a real parallel with the world today, where everyone has a different viewpoint. FFXVI is a game that tackles the issues that it deals with head-on in both the story and the presentation, and I hope that, when people look back on it and its place in the series, it will be remembered for exactly that.”</p>
<p class="">Final Fantasy XVI will launch exclusively for PS5 on June 22. Be sure to download the demo ahead of time and transfer your progress to the full game.</p>

<p class="">Since the end of The Callisto Protocol’s main game, things have gone from bad to worse inside the penitentiary. The virus that’s been wreaking havoc inside is threatening to escape the prison and it’s up to you to retrieve Mahler’s data and transmit it off-world. It’s not going to be a walk in the park. You’re going to have to fight tooth and nail to make your way through monster-infested corridors, where new abominations await. </p>

<p class="">When it comes to battling Biophage, players need reliable tools to survive. The Stun Baton is a great blunt instrument, but new threats call for new gear. According to Lead Systems Designer, Paul Guirao, the team behind The Callisto Protocol listened to fan feedback and decided to add a new melee weapon to the game. “We wanted to give players something more powerful than the Stun Baton,” Guirao explained.  </p>
<a href="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52975182256_106d1c0a36_h.jpg" rel="noopener" target="_blank"><img alt="" height="1080" src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52975182256_106d1c0a36_h.jpg" width="1920"/></a>
<p class="">The result is the all-new Kinetic Hammer. With its design and shape, you can feel the power and weight behind every swing. It has light and heavy melee attacks that hit harder than the Stun Baton, but that’s not all – Guirao explains, “Holding down the heavy melee button produces an even more powerful attack. But mastery of the heavy charged mechanic can be tricky… you become the ultimate badass once you’ve mastered it. It’s one of our favorite weapons because it obliterates everything it touches.” As a bonus, a successfully executed charge attack also creates a powerful area-of-effect.  </p>

<p class="">However, the thrill of wielding the Kinetic Hammer is only fully realized when pitted against worthy adversaries. Final Transmission introduces a new enemy type and boss for players to square off with. </p>
<p class="">With twistedly agile corruptors and brutally powerful two-headed brutes lurking around every corner, not to mention the hard-to-kill Security Units, Black Iron Prison was always a treacherous place. But now a new enemy is stalking its halls: the Biophage Robot, or the Biobot as the developers affectionately call it. This terrifying foe is a combination of Biophage and UJC Security Units, and a deadly reminder that Black Iron is still as dangerous as ever. </p>

<p class="">“In the main game, the security robots are only seen a couple of times,” Guirao tells me, “With the final chapter, we really dug into the idea of what happens when the Biophage starts taking over machinery.”</p>
<p class="">Visualizing the Biobot as a grotesque and intimidating bio-mechanical enemy was an iterative process, “We worked closely with the Concept Art team to create a look that fits in TCP’s universe. It took several iterations to establish the look. We went in both extremes, too robotic and then too organic,” Guirao explains. The more robotic iterations felt too much like the existing Security Units and lacked the gruesomeness the team was looking for. On the other hand, the more organic versions appeared too fragile and didn’t do enough to differentiate the powerful new enemies from their Biophage brethren. Eventually the team “found that sweet spot.” </p>
<a href="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52974586337_b474b22809_h.jpg" rel="noopener" target="_blank"><img alt="" height="1080" src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52974586337_b474b22809_h.jpg" width="1920"/></a>
<p class="">Affectionate nicknames aside, the Biobot is not an enemy to be taken lightly. According to one of the Senior Systems Designers, “Security Unit Robots were big, daunting enemies that couldn’t really be beaten up and would only go down from precision headshots.”<br/><br/>Guirao adds, “we’re not a tactical cover-based game, so making the Biobots a melee unit made more sense for us. We have an in-your-face style of combat and did not want to deviate from that.” </p>
<p class="">Guirao and the team at Striking Distance watched hundreds of hours of streamers playing The Callisto Protocol, “there was a lot of feedback on how all our NPCs felt the same and it was something that we needed to address.” To survive, players need to employ new tactics to take down Biobots, however, once players get the new melee weapon, they’ll have the chance to exact satisfying and well-deserved revenge on the bio-mechanical enemies and “finally get their chance to smash them apart.” </p>
<p class="center"><img alt="" height="1080" src="https://media0.giphy.com/media/v1.Y2lkPTc5MGI3NjExOTNmMTlkYmUwMTZlOTQ4MjM1M2UwOGI0NWFjZWRhODhlMzg5YjU4ZiZlcD12MV9pbnRlcm5hbF9naWZzX2dpZklkJmN0PWc/ud4QyrnwyqFh3S74CB/giphy.gif" width="1920"/></p>
<p class="">The Biobot isn’t the only new enemy you’ll encounter in your return to Black Iron. Without giving too much away, the final boss in Final Transmission is truly something special. “Our goal was to showcase the Kinetic Hammer’s power and make players strategize on the best ways to beat the boss; deciding when to use melee or ranged attacks and utilizing the arena to their advantage,” Senior Systems Designer Quinlan Richards reveals, “we’ve given the boss similar mechanics as Jacob, switching seamlessly between hard-hitting melee and aggressive ranged attacks. And to keep things interesting, we’ve given the final boss an ability that goes beyond anything Jacob can do.” </p>
<p class="">We can’t wait for you to return to Black Iron Prison to face the new horrors lurking its halls. PS4 and PS5 players get exclusive 48-hour early access to The Callisto Protocol: Final Transmission starting on June 26 at 9:00pm PST.  </p>

                'https://blog.playstation.com/tachyon/2023/06/99d17e082044ab2b039c1511779fa6e3170c3f34-scaled.jpg?resize=1088%2C612&crop_strategy=smart',
                '<div class="post-single__content single__content entry-content">
<p class="">From the very inception of the world that would come to be known as Luna Abyss, there has always been a clear vision. Bonsai Collective’s Art Director Harry Corr, and Creative Director Benni Hill, set out with a grab bag of influences and a set of aesthetic and narrative waypoints which underpinned the worldbuilding in its early stages. That vision remains integral to the game we have created. </p>
<a href="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52991774179_0127195e24_h.jpg" rel="noopener" target="_blank"><img alt="" src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52991774179_0127195e24_h.jpg"/></a>
<p class="has-text-align-center"><em>Caption: Tsutomu Nihei’s Blame! was a major influence on our art style and level design </em></p>
<p class="">Building the world of Luna Abyss has been a process of extrapolation – building outwards from carefully defined core concepts, expressed in early level blockouts and key narrative beats, a core cast of characters to bring those beats to life. All good construction needs a solid foundation; ours was a sprawling brutalist megastructure, a sky within a moon, sufficiently strange as to pique the imagination. How did we get here? Where <em>is</em> here? These are the questions our protagonist asks, and who better to answer than an omnipresent disembodied head…? </p>
<a href="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52991634281_aea6b68e49_h.jpg" rel="noopener" target="_blank"><img alt="" src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52991634281_aea6b68e49_h.jpg"/></a>
<p class="has-text-align-center"><em>Caption: Beyond the decaying halls of Sorrow’s Canyon lies a vast alien landscape for Fawkes to navigate.</em></p>
<p class="">So how do you take something as vast as an alien moon and scale it down enough to understand where your characters fit, and how best to tell their story?</p>
<p class="">“We started with the cell,” says Lenny Ilett, a character designer at Bonsai Collective. “The game revolves around the axis of the cell, so it was pretty important to define those characters <em>in</em> the cell so we have something to work from.” For our primary characters – protagonist Fawkes, and their prison warden Aylin – the cell is the site of their most important interactions. It’s also a space of transition, literally and narratively – Fawkes returns here between missions to rest and process the events of the day. It was a useful waypoint in building the relationship between these two characters – how were they going to react to one another in this place of forced proximity versus out in the world, where their roles are more clearly defined?</p>
<a href="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52992003530_1731d1cfa9_h.jpg" rel="noopener" target="_blank"><img alt="" src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52992003530_1731d1cfa9_h.jpg"/></a>
<p class="has-text-align-center"><em>Caption: Ellie: Lift guardian, train conductor, poet.</em></p>
<p class="">For the most part, building our characters was a back-and-forth process between the art team and the narrative team. Fawkes and Aylin were defined early on in the process, as the key characters in the story, but over time, and as the world grew in scale, it became necessary to expand our cast in order to tell the story we wanted. Here, art and story worked hand in hand. An example of this is Urien Caldecott, dubbed “axe cat” by the internet, who existed in concept for quite some time before receiving the character design treatment. Lenny describes the process of visualizing a character as chipping away at a block of marble, revealing the character in increments based on their dialogue, or their backstory. “You’re bringing words on a page to life,” Lenny says, of Urien, “but what does that look like? That’s something you have to navigate.”</p>
<a href="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52992095883_4c6ce304da_h.jpg" rel="noopener" target="_blank"><img alt="" src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52992095883_4c6ce304da_h.jpg"/></a>
<p class="has-text-align-center"><em>Caption: </em><em>The mysterious Waif is the first person you’ll meet in the Abyss – but not the last.</em></p>
<p class="">This process exists in parallel, too. Some of our NPCs began life as basic character models; biomechanical wardens, much like the one Fawkes inhabits, which come in a variety of weird and wonderful shapes. Lenny explains that these wardens emerged from a process of continual iteration; back-and-forth between character design and animation, ensuring that the designs were actually feasible in three dimensions. For this, the designers often looked to the natural world for inspiration. Lenny gives the example of a particular warden which originally had human-like legs, but ended up with a structure more akin to a kangaroo, the better to maintain balance. Similarly, Animator Marie Trystad mentions looking at the way snakes move in order to animate Aylin’s uncannily long neck. This in turn inspired the sound design; a particular character the player will encounter in the Meadows is a glorious amalgamation of ideas from across the team, brought to life by Marie, and given even more personality by Sound Designer Sarah Sherlock. In this way, our characters have truly been a team effort.</p>
<a href="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52991774174_a50ec30964_h.jpg" rel="noopener" target="_blank"><img alt="" src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52991774174_a50ec30964_h.jpg"/></a>
<p class="has-text-align-center"><em>Caption: </em><em>Environmental storytelling allows us to shed further light on the world of the Abyss.</em></p>
<p class="">Part of the process of making our NPCs feel like living, breathing people who populate a world that is vast and lived-in, beyond the limits of Fawkes’ scope and perception, was bridging the conceptual gap between the machine and the human soul within. It was important to us to give these characters their own self-contained stories, which intersect with Fawkes’, but nonetheless give a sense of a world beyond that which the player experiences directly. In assigning models to these characters, we then found ourselves in a situation where it seemed necessary to understand <em>why</em> they were in these particular wardens – which traits might lead a person to being assigned one type over another, and what this meant for the characters. It was from this core question that we ourselves began to understand more about the world we’d created. The results of this can be seen threaded through the supplementary lore encountered in the game world.</p>
<a href="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52991037252_973cb3723d_h.jpg" rel="noopener" target="_blank"><img alt="" src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52991037252_973cb3723d_h.jpg"/></a>
<p class="has-text-align-center"><em>Caption: Our art team rose to the challenge of representing the human soul trapped within the machine.</em></p>
<p class="">As these characters began to gain a life of their own, so it seemed important to make them visually distinctive – not just on a practical level, so they might be differentiated from the multitude of other wardens across the Abyss, but also because it seemed reasonable that these individuals, with their own personalities and identities, would seek to individualize their own appearance in some way. This was the most important point of collaboration between the story and art teams. I had an ongoing dialogue with Animators Waseem Shaheed and Marie Trystad, exchanging questions and backstories to gain a greater understanding of who these characters were, and by extension, how they might move; this in turn influenced the personalities of these characters, which became more clearly delineated in the way they held themselves, or in the subtleties of their motion. Similarly, I worked with Lenny and Art Director Harry Corr to develop visual shorthands, within our limitations, to express elements of personality through appearance; working from the understanding that these characters, by virtue of being trapped inside biomechanical bodies, would find ways to customize them to their liking.</p>
<a href="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52992095893_2e5baeb822_h.jpg" rel="noopener" target="_blank"><img alt="" src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52992095893_2e5baeb822_h.jpg"/></a>
<p class="">We had always intended to create a cast of characters with diverse identities. Our protagonist, Fawkes, is nonbinary; we chose to present this quite simply as a fact about them, without posing it as an issue to be discussed or a dilemma to be pondered. We chose to include a variety of ethnicities, sexualities and gender identities among our cast to reflect the lived reality of those at the studio; it was important to us to normalize all of these things and weave them into the fabric of the world, which also included casting voice actors to authentically represent those characters. From a visual perspective, we faced the challenge of how to signpost certain elements of these identities in a way that felt realistic, given the limitation of the nonhuman warden bodies. In other cases, we decided to play with the cognitive dissonance of – for example – two cisgender male characters housed in feminine-coded bodies. Ultimately, we allowed the characters themselves to guide our hand.</p>
<p class="">Finally, we also created a library of lore entries, which the player discovers as they progress through the game. Collecting these will build a codex of entries, which act as an archive rather than an exhaustive encyclopedia; letter, diary entries and other windows into life on Luna, adding context to the events Fawkes experiences. The end result, we hope, will be a glimpse into a world which collapsed two hundred years before Fawkes ever set foot on the blood moon.</p>

                '<div class="post-single__content single__content entry-content">
<p class="">The world of Meet Your Maker is expanding with the arrival of Sector 1: Dreadshore.</p>
<p class="">We’re packing a lot into this release, and since Dreadshore marks our first major content update, we’re celebrating by letting you claim the Sector 1 Arsenal Pack for free beginning tomorrow until July 10.</p>
<p class="">With Meet Your Maker launched and officially out in the wild, it’s been a pleasure watching millions of Outposts spring up around the world, all thanks to our engaged, incredibly creative community. You’ve made some truly twisted stuff, and we love you for it.</p>
<p class="">It’s our job to keep fueling that creativity, and Sector 1: Dreadshore with its new lore, environment, arsenal additions, and cosmetics, is an important step in that direction.</p>
<p class="">Let’s start with the obvious: What exactly is Sector 1: Dreadshore, and what does it include?</p>
<p class="">“We’re using the Sectors to deliver large gameplay updates though a narrative,” explains Ash Pannell, Meet Your Maker’s Creative Director. “The Dreadshore is a place in our world and the items that you get from that Sector are all tied to its story. It helps expand the lore of Meet Your Maker alongside the actual gameplay.”</p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Welcome to Dreadshore</h2>
<a href="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52991820256_977f889136_h.jpg" rel="noopener" target="_blank"><img alt="" height="1080" src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52991820256_977f889136_h.jpg" width="1920"/></a>
<p class="">Each Sector in Meet Your Maker explores a new location on Earth, devastated in its own specific way.</p>
<p class="">The Dreadshore, situated on the remains of the New England coastline, is the location of an abandoned Sanctuary housed beneath a lighthouse. Within this facility, clones were subject to a host of cruel, disturbing experiments until one escaped, killing the out-of-control Custodian and Chimera on their way out.</p>
<p class="">Sector 1: Dreadshore will include a new environment and themed Deco Pack – both free and instantly accessible to all players.</p>
<p class="">“Environments and Deco Packs give tools to the builders to create stories out of their Outposts,” shares Ash. “Completely different from the Red Sands, Dreadshore is all about being dark, moody and playing with light. As such, it’s the perfect place to construct dark and scary Outposts. The Deco Pack’s rusty metal and worn wooden blocks allow players to imagine a lot of old buildings and structures.”</p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">New tools of destruction</h2>
<p class="">Undoubtedly the most exciting Dreadshore additions come in the form of the Sector 1 Arsenal Pack.</p>
<p class="">The four new gameplay elements not only deliver new ways for builders to strategize and concoct unexpected kills, but also give raiders some new tricks of their own to survive them.</p>
<p class=""> “Being a systemic game, every single new item has massive gameplay repercussions,” says Ash. “Just playtesting this sector has been amazing, and knowing what it’s going to do to change the meta in the game is indeed exciting – and that’s before players start getting hold of it and really showing us how to use these new items.”</p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">New Custodian: Nautilus</h2>
<a href="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52991223567_88413e7870_h.jpg" rel="noopener" target="_blank"><img alt="" height="1080" src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52991223567_88413e7870_h.jpg" width="1920"/></a>
<p class="">The Nautilus represents the lone survivor of the Dreadshore Sanctuary. This mysterious figure was one of the clones being held captive and experimented upon. He built a suit in secret that could bolster his defensive abilities and help him escape.</p>
<p class="">While the two other suits currently available are geared towards ranged and melee perks, Nautilus is all about defensive weapon capabilities with all three of its perks greatly buffing the Arc Barrier’s effectiveness.</p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading"> New trap: Sentry Beam</h2>
<a href="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52991223597_54cc1276cb_h.jpg" rel="noopener" target="_blank"><img alt="" height="1080" src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52991223597_54cc1276cb_h.jpg" width="1920"/></a>
<p class="">The Sentry Beam was designed by the lighthouse Sanctuary to keep its population of prisoners in check. It uses motion tracking to fire a laser beam of super-heated amplified light at raiders that can ricochet multiple times before dissipating, adding an element of chaos to its attack.</p>
<p class="">“This trap is great. It’s an area denial trap designed to pin unsuspecting players down,” explains Ash. “As it bounces off walls it brings a nice new sense of randomness that helps break repetitive patterns of play.”<strong> </strong></p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">New guard: Ravager</h2>
<a href="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52992284243_35450c4f00_h.jpg" rel="noopener" target="_blank"><img alt="" height="1080" src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52992284243_35450c4f00_h.jpg" width="1920"/></a>
<p class="">The Ravager is the unintended result of a Dreadshore experiment gone wrong. The guard sees multiple targets where there’s only one, and simultaneously shoots a bolt at each, creating a deadly scattershot effect.</p>
<p class="">“Think of this one as a different kind of pattern breaker,” points out Ash. “The Ravager has a horizontal field of fire making it very tough to strafe to avoid. Strafing has previously been the way to defeat these enemies, so when combined with other guards and traps, players will again have to adjust their playstyles.”</p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">New weapon: Demolition Cannon</h2>
<a href="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52991820261_fbb79e52f7_h.jpg" rel="noopener" target="_blank"><img alt="" height="1080" src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52991820261_fbb79e52f7_h.jpg" width="1920"/></a>
<p class="">The Demolition Cannon was developed for war, but as global unrest occurred, it was used more as a lethal crowd control weapon. Essentially a grenade launcher with recoverable ammo, the lighthouse Sanctuary stocked this weapon as a last resort should the prisoners revolt. Nautilus discovered and used one during his blood-soaked escape.</p>

<p class=""><strong>Aston Martin Valkyrie ’21 </strong><br/><em>A uniquely shaped hypercar with F1 derived aerodynamics.</em></p>
<p class="">Aston Martin is one of Britain’s most beloved luxury sports car manufacturers. This hyper car, the Valkyrie, is a result of their near 110 years of experience in the field combined with the expertise of F1 constructor Red Bull Racing. The design started from an idea for an innovative road car devised by Red Bull Racing’s designer and aerodynamics expert Adrian Newey. Newey took his proposal to Aston Martin where he made a connection with their chief designer Marek Reichman. In 2016, the project began in earnest as ‘AM-RB 001’. The car developed under the AM-RB 001 codename was first unveiled at the 2017 Geneva Motor Show, along with its official name, the Valkyrie. </p>
<p class="">Production versions of the Valkyrie were first seen in 2021, taking form as a uniquely shaped hyper car which incorporated F1 derived aerodynamics with the Aston Martin design language. The high nose of the car is equipped with an underslung wing and creates powerful downforce through the Venturi tunnels running under the body. Between them sits the teardrop shaped cockpit where the driver and passenger sit feet-up in the style of a formula car. Extensive lightening has been implemented across the carbon-fiber body with even the Aston Martin nose emblem being reduced to a 70-micron thick piece of aluminum. As a result, the car weighs roughly 1,000 kg, achieving an astonishing power-to-weight ratio of 1.01 kg/BHP. </p>
<p class="">Hard mounted to the rear of the cabin is the hybrid power unit, a Cosworth 6.5L naturally aspirated V12 engine with KERS (kinetic energy recovery system). The total output of the system is 1,140 BHP putting the car on par with even top category racing machines. The Valkyrie was first available in a limited run of 150 coupe models, which sold out almost immediately despite the price tag of over 2M pounds. The coupe was followed by the ‘AMR pro’ Le Mans style competition model and an open-top ‘Spider’ model. This pinnacle of performance is notable as one of the first hyper cars to reach the level of an LMP1 machine.</p>

<p class=""><strong>Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution III GSR ’95</strong><br/><em>Improved aerodynamics and cooling make for the ultimate first wave ‘Evo’.</em></p>
<p class="">The Lancer Evolution was launched in September 1992. Starting with the compact body of the commercial Lancer saloon and adding Mitsubishi’s mechanisms used only for the WRC-grade Galant VR-4, the Lancer Evolution became a rally-oriented car. At the core of this car was the 4G63, a turbocharged 2.0 L DOHC inline-4 engine, already producing 246.5 BHP and 31.5 kgfm of torque at the time of its debut. With overwhelming traction and power delivered to all four wheels, it was already much faster than any other model in its class. </p>
<p class="">One year after its creation, in December 1993, the improved Lancer Evolution II was revealed, with its maximum power output increased to 256.4 BHP. The tyres were also changed to 205/60R15, and modifications to the wheelbase and the tread size were also implemented. Around this time, it started to be called by its famous nickname, “Lan-Evo”, by the Japanese fans. Another evolution happened in January 1995. </p>
<p class="">The 3rd generation, called Lancer Evolution III, saw its exterior drastically modified to improve aerodynamic performance. With a larger opening in the front bumper and a larger rear spoiler, it now had the powerful look of a vehicle focused on competition. The compression ratio of the 4G63 power unit was raised to 9.0, improving maximum power output to 266.3 BHP. Detailed changes and enhancements were also made to the suspension, and these changes greatly improved both engine performance and maneuverability. At the time, the base Lancer model was about to receive a full model change, and it was rumored then that the Evo III may in fact be the last Evo.</p>

<p class=""><strong>Subaru Impreza Sedan WRX STi ’04</strong><br/><em>2nd generation Impreza which was developed alongside the rally spec model.</em></p>
<p class="">Just one year after the release of the radical Spec C, in November 2002, a facelift was already being implemented in the Impreza series. Though loved by many, the previous round headlights proved to be unpopular on the mass market and were abandoned in favor of imposing new teardrop-shaped lights. This time, under joint development with the SWRT (Subaru World Rally Team), new expertise facilitated the creation of better aerodynamic characteristics. On the performance side, a twin-scroll turbo system was introduced for better spool efficiency along with a modified exhaust system to match. The crankshaft, along with the pistons and conrods were reinforced enabling the engine to produce 40.2 kgfm, the highest torque figure in the 2-litre class at the time. </p>
<p class="">Some manual transmission models were also equipped with a driver-controlled center differential featuring an automatic mode. Depending on the conditions while cornering, the distribution of torque to the front and rear of the central differential was divided automatically, and the car demonstrated tremendous effectiveness on both circuits and winding roads. In June 2004, a model with larger tires was introduced. This was in response to demands from the motorsport field, such as in the Super Taikyu Endurance racing. The maximum torque was also increased to 42.0 kgfm at this time. The Impreza found its way to fame as one of Japan’s most representative high-performance cars, recognized by enthusiasts the world over. From 2003, the exportation of the STi model to America began, and with the Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution also starting exportation, the fierce rivalry reached further outside Japan’s borders.</p>

<p class="">We have decided to stay true to the game’s minimalist roots – it is based on Sega’s console and arcade classic – and encourage players to discover new techniques and powerups and to improve their skills with each new playthrough.</p>
<p class="">Here are six features, techniques and options you might not have yet discovered – and a teaser for what’s to come…</p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">You are a magnet</h2>
<p class="center"><img alt="" src="https://media4.giphy.com/media/v1.Y2lkPTc5MGI3NjExcXE5OWtzZW95a2VmN2dxZzU2Z2V2anVsOG04dnBtdHR4MWxqMWU1dyZlcD12MV9pbnRlcm5hbF9naWZfYnlfaWQmY3Q9Zw/0bx2FN1go3mZCmWGTU/giphy.gif"/></p>
<p class="">While the game will push your body and mind to the limits, a subtle feature will help when you – or the ball – may be feeling cornered. Moving sideways will attract the ball in that direction, even from a distance, allowing you to move the ball out from behind a block for instance.</p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">You’ve got the power</h2>
<p class="center"><img alt="" src="https://media2.giphy.com/media/v1.Y2lkPTc5MGI3NjExNmk3MHA3cm5jOXJhbmZ1cHNtYjcxdXdrOGIzY240MGRrYWM3NGNhYSZlcD12MV9pbnRlcm5hbF9naWZfYnlfaWQmY3Q9Zw/iCOVRuIsVrenQP9d4X/giphy.gif"/></p>
<p class="">Look at your racket. With each consecutive successful ball hit, your racket will gradually fill up. Once full, use the trigger on the racket hand (R2 by default) to activate the Power Smash. Keep holding it down while you’re hitting the ball to perform it.</p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading"> </h2>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Left, right, don’t matter</h2>
<p class="center"><img alt="" src="https://media1.giphy.com/media/v1.Y2lkPTc5MGI3NjExejdscjUxZm92aWF1OHJnMjRneHVpcjBoendkb2htMDN0djV3emUwbiZlcD12MV9pbnRlcm5hbF9naWZfYnlfaWQmY3Q9Zw/BATOIkCAZJIg4yoOoC/giphy.gif"/></p>
<p class="">Whether you’re left- or right-handed or just like to change things up a bit, you can easily switch racket hands in the menu. Note that you can also decide which hand to have the lateral movement stick assigned to.</p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading"> </h2>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Space commander</h2>
<p class="center"><img alt="" src="https://media3.giphy.com/media/v1.Y2lkPTc5MGI3NjExOHE0OHhubzM5dXpxMzFlZ251eXE5d2M5N2U1YWx2Y2hjNGcyamVmcCZlcD12MV9pbnRlcm5hbF9naWZfYnlfaWQmY3Q9Zw/zFv7tBW4SKm6kBQ7r3/giphy.gif"/></p>
<p class="">Lateral movement is your friend. Feel the fluidity of moving left and right, even without the ball in play. Soon you will feel like you’re dancing and will be able to catch balls which previously might have seemed impossible to reach.</p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Rogue one</h2>
<p class="center"><img alt="" src="https://media3.giphy.com/media/v1.Y2lkPTc5MGI3NjExYjUwcXJ2ZTZzdHJpbG9lN2d3NXd0M3llcDhkamlkZjh0Zm92eG0yOCZlcD12MV9pbnRlcm5hbF9naWZfYnlfaWQmY3Q9Zw/YF9N9XUpg7uDh96MBw/giphy.gif"/></p>
<p class="">The single-player Journey map adds unique rogue-like progression to our futuristic sports game. Choose your own path through the cosmos and hop from orbit to orbit, your paths randomly generated with each new playthrough. Discover new power-ups along the way, such as the Launcher.</p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Sit down, stand up</h2>
<p class="center"><img alt="" src="https://media2.giphy.com/media/v1.Y2lkPTc5MGI3NjExem9xYm5tOGN1eDd0OGZtM2ZhY21jNmoxanZyaXQxbmw2YzU1a2N0NiZlcD12MV9pbnRlcm5hbF9naWZfYnlfaWQmY3Q9Zw/OlwbiDAzDLxX0YAS6Q/giphy.gif"/></p>
<p class="">We want C-Smash VRS to be enjoyed by everyone. Do you prefer to play seated? Do you have a smaller play space? Fear not, your height will be adjusted to match other players. And you’ll be able to reach low balls by using the squat button.</p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Unfolding the cosmos</h2>
<p class="">There is so much more to discover in C-Smash VRS and, like the cosmos itself, the game will keep growing in the coming weeks.</p>
<p class="">Coming soon, entirely for free:</p>
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li><strong>Co-Op: </strong>so you can enjoy C-Smash VRS with someone else without the pressure to compete.</li>
<li><strong>Infinity Mode:</strong> this mode will let you play forever* in a dynamically generated arena that will keep changing along with the music. Imagine working out to the world’s greatest DJ set. </li>
<li><strong>Music Player: </strong>the music is so good, we’ll give you the opportunity to just chill and listen to the mixes.</li>
</ul>
<p class="">And we won’t stop there.</p>

<p class="">Baldur’s Gate 3 is a big RPG. A great, big, uncompromising RPG! It shows in the numbers: more than 170 hours of cinematics and featuring three times more cinematic dialogue than all three The Lord of the Rings novels combined, a library of more than 600 spells and actions, and plenty more.</p>
<p class="">Dungeons &amp; Dragons is all about player freedom – the freedom to define your character, to explore vast territories with your allies, and decide the fate of the world. We’ve spent the last six years bringing the unlimited freedom D&amp;D is known for into the realm of video games. We’ve written two-million words of dialogue across the thousands of characters that populate the world of Faerûn, with an exhilarating story and in-depth character creation that puts you at the helm of the adventure. The dice may define your luck, but you define the story.</p>
<p class="">Originally due to launch on August 31, we’ve decided to release Baldur’s Gate 3 for PS5 on September 6. This brief delay allows us more time to achieve our ambition of 60 frames per second, thanks to the power of PlayStation 5. For those of you who purchased our gigantic Collector’s Edition (limited stock still available), don’t worry, we’ve got your back. We’ll be emailing you codes so you can jump in on September 3, at the start of the September 3 72-hour Early Access period that comes with the Deluxe Edition.</p>
<p class="">We’ve talked about how Baldur’s Gate 3 is an ambitious game, so let’s take a look at some of the features you can expect when it launches on September 6, or for those of you with the Deluxe Edition, September 3.</p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Create a character who looks like you, or make something completely different</h2>
<p class="">Whether you have the stature of a gnome or the muscle tone of a half-orc, it all begins with a hero. Character creation is such a central part of D&amp;D, and in Baldur’s Gate 3, we wanted players to experience the same kind of freedom when shaping their own identity. Who you are, what you look like, and how you want to play is up to you. Define your body type, your age, and looks – right down to the highlights in your hair. Baldur’s Mouth will be writing about you, so it’s important you make a bold impression.</p>

<p class="">You steer the adventure. Well, a version of you based on your choice of Human, Dwarf, Githyanki, Elf, Drow, Tiefling, Halfling, Half-Elf, Gnome, Half-Orc, or Dragonborn. But how you appear doesn’t define who you are. That’s why we’ve 12 classes from D&amp;D, including Barbarian, Bard, Cleric, Druid, Fighter, Monk, Paladin, Ranger, Rogue, Sorcerer, Warlock, and Wizard, with a total of 46 subclasses between them for some extra spice and specialization. Or should you not want to choose, you can create a hybrid class through Multiclassing.</p>

<p class="">Get as macro or as micro as you like.</p>
<a href="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/53004736438_58944458a2_h.jpg" rel="noopener" target="_blank"><img alt="" height="1080" src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/53004736438_58944458a2_h.jpg" width="1920"/></a>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Friends, lovers, and enemies</h2>
<p class="">Whether exploring Faerûn with your companions in single-player or playing with friends in split-screen multiplayer, your story is shaped by the company you keep, the bonds you forge, and the enemies you make along the way.</p>
<p class="">On your long rests between battles and quests, you’ll make camp with others who have undergone the unfortunate process of tadpole insertion into their brains. While Baldur’s Gate 3 offers in-depth character customisation, you can also play as an Origin character: authored, playable protagonists each with their own stories, desires, and alignments.</p>
<p class="">You don’t have to play as an Origin to enjoy their story and companionship; you may also recruit Origin characters into your party. You may meet others on your journey that can be of help to you; some new friends, and some familiar faces.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">From the fires of Avernus</h2>
<p class="">Karlach is an example of an Origin character, who (if not played) can be recruited into your party. With a giant battleaxe in hand, this battle-worn tiefling barbarian packs a mean blow. Some say it’s her years of experience on the scorched battlefields of the Blood War.</p>

<p class="">It could also be the unholy machine that pumps hellish fire through her veins, a gift from the archdevil she once served. But be careful – if she gets too worked up, she could destroy anything she touches, and that includes you.</p>
<p class="">Like a cast die, every decision you make in Baldur’s Gate 3 has the potential to alter the course of your story. As you create your legacy, the people of Faerûn take note of your actions, chart your adventure, and make their own judgements based on their own inclinations and expectations. The decisions you make in-game have far-reaching near and long-term effects – but every choice you make is valid; it’s your story. Unless you die. Whatever you did then was probably a bad idea.</p>
<p class="">These decisions also affect your relationships with your companions. Whether it’s an impish vampire spawn or a beefy archdruid in the middle of a wild shape transformation, in Baldur’s Gate 3 you can romance almost all of your camp companions. And, depending on how you interact with them, you may see different romance scenes for several of these characters during your replays.</p>
<p class="">Relationships in Baldur’s Gate 3 develop and blossom, or grow sour and dwindle just as in real life. They require maintenance, and are based on genuine admiration from the perspective of each character’s general point of view about the world, and your actions within it. The dating world in Baldur’s Gate 3 is your oyster. It is what you make it… well, give or take a few dice rolls.</p>
<p class="">But we’ll leave some of the more intriguing visuals for Panel From Hell: Release Showcase, which is airing July 7 – where you’ll also have the chance to meet our seventh and final Origin character.</p>

<p class="">Greetings everyone! I’m Jovan, Technical Artist at Ebb Software. The whole team here found joy in bringing you nightmarish experiences that will fully immerse you into somber tapestries. And today we’re excited to reveal that our first game, Scorn, will come to Playstation 5 later this year.</p>

<p class="">Many of you here may be new to Scorn, so for those less familiar with the game, you are about to experience a horrific adventure like no other. Trapped and stranded in a strange biomechanical world, you must make your way through a civilization in decay, now inhabited with twisted and grotesque creatures. While you will be able to wield various weapons in the game, Scorn is not a shooter, and each encounter can quickly turn deadly. Ammo and life are scarce, and your wits will often advise you to avoid direct confrontation.  Instead, to progress through this mesmerizing labyrinth, you will have to revive and activate abandoned contraptions, part machine, part flesh, all horror.</p>
<p class="">We like to compare it to the experience of a nightmare. Most often, nightmares are described as strong subjective experiences that can be intensely distressing and frightening, eliciting emotional responses in dreamers, and causing feelings of fear, anxiety, and terror. Scorn tries to offer these emotions to its players in a very subtle manner through a somber atmosphere and its gloomy corridors.</p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Immersive power of PS5</h2>
<p class="">As we were developing the game for PlayStation 5, we finally had the opportunity to tap into the potential of the DualSense wireless controller to immerse you even further in this twisted world, extending the synesthetic experience of Scorn. It allows us to deepen the player’s immersion and to let the whole world “breathe” in a new way. Since there is no spoken dialogue in the game, we have put a strong emphasis on environmental storytelling, hence haptics are a great addition to this peculiar audio-visual experience. </p>
<p class="">The main character in the game interacts with the world mostly by using his hands. Most of these interactions are also painful for the character. That’s where haptics comes into play. The imagery offered to the player’s eyes is painful by itself, but we wanted to increase this feeling by giving a sensation to the hands holding the controller. Players are also able to feel the directions of haptics (left or right hand), further adding to the experience.</p>
<a href="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52992437423_4d2adcdb15_h.jpg" rel="noopener" target="_blank"><img alt="" src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52992437423_4d2adcdb15_h.jpg"/></a>
<p class="">From the smallest interaction, such as feeling the low rumble of an organic head-mounted display to the situations in which players find themselves in dire and dangerous encounters, the DualSense controller haptics elevate the feeling of immersion by balancing the intensity of vibration according to in-game sounds.</p>
<p class="center"><img alt="" src="https://media2.giphy.com/media/v1.Y2lkPTc5MGI3NjExaHYzdXgzcnR3OGlidm5xbXRubnBxbWY4Znd3ZXNxNGc3ZGViY2xocSZlcD12MV9pbnRlcm5hbF9naWZfYnlfaWQmY3Q9Zw/7rz41ESiDcN1srU4Ww/giphy.gif"/></p>
<p class="">We have also made immersive use of the DualSense controller adaptive triggers when the player needs to use tools and weapons to survive. Every weapon or tool has a subtle, but different feeling of weight. For example, the piston-like melee tool, used to operate different contraptions, and occasionally in desperate attempts of self-defense, has a specific resistance in the trigger that when used alongside the haptics, enhances the desired effect.</p>
<p class="">Finally, the DualSense controller light bar represents the health of the player, changing colors in appropriate situations. It is a small addition to the otherwise very minimalistic HUD in Scorn. The idea is that a player can get a piece of immediate information on their HP status while playing the game.</p>
<p class="">Balancing the DualSense controller features was not an easy task but with coordination between TechArt, Programming, and Audio teams, we have successfully pulled it through and made something special for PlayStation 5 players.</p>
<p class="">We are also very proud to announce that following popular demand, a physical version of the game will be available at the same time as the digital version, including a digital artbook, digital version of the Original Soundtrack composed by Aethek &amp; Lustmord, and, only available at selected retailers, an exclusive SteelBook:</p>

<p class="">We can’t wait for all PlayStation fans to delve into our mesmerizing world later this year. Stay tuned for more information!</p>
