Tendez l'oreille et découvrez la magnifique bande originale de A Plague Tale: Innocence dans une nouvelle vidéo 

Toutes les belles histoires méritent de belles musiques. Le 14 Mai prochain sur PS4, Xbox One et PC, A Plague Tale: Innocence contera le récit déchirant d’Amicia et de son petit frère Hugo, livrés à eux-mêmes au cœur des heures les plus sombres de l’Histoire. Pour parfaire ce conte, Olivier Derivière, le célèbre compositeur des musiques de Vampyr, Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag - Freedom Cry, Remember Me, ou encore Alone In The Dark, orchestre l’extraordinaire bande originale de A Plague Tale: Innocence, alliant thématiques sombres à ses instruments caractéristiques pour créer une expérience inoubliable.

Deux des musiques du jeu sont dévoilées dans la vidéo d’aujourd’hui. Celle-ci met également en avant le talent d’Olivier Ponsonnet, Directeur Artistique du jeu, au cours d’un speed painting d’Amicia. Olivier Ponsonnet avait déjà détaillé dans notre websérie son approche sur le design et la retranscription de l’univers sombre du 14éme siècle Français - la peste, la mort, les rats.

The name of the game here is speed and precision, as you achieve that satisfying, zen-like state of being, air-dodging and weaving through more pixelated bullets than you can shake a floating skull at.

Couple this with a thumping synthwave soundtrack by Rémi Gallego (The Algorithm) and deliciously retro sound design by Magnus Pålsson (VVVVVV), and Hell is Other Demons will transport you into the bowels of hell. But like, with more bleeps and bloops.

Hell is Other Demons launches on April 18, 2019, with availability on PC and Mac (Kartridge), as well as Nintendo Switch. The game will then launch on Steam on May 20, 2019.

Frostpunk’s Icy Post-Apocalypse Making its Way to Xbox One and PlayStation 4

April 12, 2019 - Warsaw, Poland - Fans asked and 11 bit studios listened. The independent Polish developer is very excited to confirm that Frostpunk, the first of its kind in strategic gaming is officially coming to consoles. A gritty simulation of society survival in a frozen post-apocalypse, the Bafta-nominated Frostpunk was a bestseller of 2018 and multiple award winner in its genre. Frostpunk: Console Edition is a finely tuned adaptation of the PC hit that will be making its way to Xbox One and PlayStation 4 later this year.

Offering players a complex strategic challenge alongside a rich narrative featuring an alternative take on the 19th-century industrial revolution, Frostpunk weaves a story of how our planet mysteriously freezes, putting an end to civilization as we know it and forcing the human race to adapt to the harsh conditions. As the leader of possibly the last civilized society on Earth, you’re going to build the city your survivors live in, discover new technologies, explore frozen wastelands and most importantly, manage and rule society to prepare it for life in an unforgiving world. Whether you’re an enlightened ruler or an iron-fisted tyrant, you’ll discover choices in this world aren’t as easy as they seem, and that holding power over people has a cost as heavy as the responsibility you feel in caring for them.

Focusing on a smooth transition to consoles, great efforts are being taken to re-design the game and adjust its mechanics for the Xbox One and PlayStation 4, especially when it comes to controls. 11 bit studios still have some work to do but are close to the finish line, creating an intuitive interface allowing gameplay to feel natural even when playing with a controller. “We don’t want to reveal the exact release date yet, but I can say that the game should be out in the summer,” says lead designer Kuba Stokalski.

Frostpunk: Console Edition will contain all the previous free updates from the PC version including The Fall of Winterhome scenario, additional customization options, difficulty settings, and balance tweaks. Furthermore, additional content updates are planned for the future.

About Frostpunk: Console Edition:

Frostpunk: Console Edition is a society survival game where heat means life and every decision comes at a price. Presenting complex strategic gameplay, demanding challenges and rich story, Frostpunk extends its unmatched survival experience to consoles. Adapted for consoles with revised controls and adjusted mechanics, Frostpunk: Console Edition allows you to fully test your tactical prowess on the frozen wastelands.

MAINTAIN HOPE

Survival is about hope and the will to live. Your ability to spark and maintain these two in your people will be a determinant factor for success.

MAKE THE LAW

Society is a group of people abiding by the same rules and sharing similar beliefs. Establishing laws and customs will be a crucial factor in shaping your society.

WEIGH YOUR CHOICES

Will you allow child-labor? How will you treat the sick and wounded? Frostpunk challenges tactical skills while questioning your morality.

EXPLORE

Expeditions, while risky, can bring you valuable intel, precious supplies and grow your society’s population. There may be people out there, and their fate lies solely in your hands.

PLAY ENDLESSLY

Endless Mode offers new maps, game modes, mechanics, and allows you to dive into the Frostpunk experience deeper than ever before.

Steampunk Dungeon Crawler Vaporum Arrives This Week on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch

Bratislava, Slovakia, April 9, 2019 - Fatbot Games and Merge Games are pleased to announce their unique steampunk dungeon crawler Vaporum has arrived on PlayStation 4 in North America with Xbox One coming on April 10th, Nintendo Switch on April 11th, and PlayStation 4 in Europe on April 15th! Vaporum is an award-winning grid-based, single-player dungeon crawler game that uses a first-person perspective in an original steampunk setting. The game is inspired by old-school games like Dungeon Master I and II, the Eye of the Beholder series and the more recent Legend of Grimrock I and II.

Prepare to fight - you’ll encounter many enemies along your path. Each type has a distinctive set of strengths, weaknesses, and attack and defense mechanisms, so you’ll have to employ different tactics to beat them. Choose wisely when equipping yourself with gear; weapons differ from one another not only by damage levels and appearance, but also in terms of their unique bonuses or behaviors.

Use a wide range of skills thanks to the gadget-based RPG system: direct attacks, area attacks, offensive and defensive buffs, etc. But be careful, because while they are powerful, they also drain your energy. Remember that some enemies are immune to certain types of attack, so you will have to figure out the best way to deal with every encounter the game throws at you.

Solve intriguing puzzles and level-wide objectives where you will need to use both your wits and reflexes. While most riddles are contained in a single room, progression objectives can span entire levels, or even multiple ones.

Instead of increasing the abilities of your human character, improve your exoskeleton. Equip yourself with various items and define your own playstyle. Change your loadout at any time to adapt to all kinds of unexpected situations. As your exoskeleton becomes more powerful by absorbing a special substance – fumium – from defeated enemies, you will be able to unlock useful areas of the exo-rig, gaining significant permanent attribute bonuses and passive skills. Simply put – prepare for tonnes of customization.

VAPORUM – MAIN FEATURES:

Fight in real time - First-person real-time combat with deadly foes with varied abilities and behaviors
Be tactical - Use various attacks and read your opponents – each enemy has a different set of strengths and weaknesses
Fully voiced main characters - Find out what happened to the inhabitants of the tower with fully voiced phono-diaries kept by the main story’s protagonists
Tons of customization options - The gadget-based RPG system allows you to evolve your exoskeleton and define your own playstyle
Absorb fumium from defeated enemies - Unlock additional circuits in your exoskeleton and gain new bonuses and skills
Keep your wits about you - Solve level-wide objectives and puzzles that vary in difficulty
Explore and loot - Look for optional passages filled with additional challenges and rewards
What happened in the mysterious tower? - A storyline full of dark secrets and unexpected twists
Immersive steampunk setting - Beautiful graphics, stunning sound design and an atmosphere that makes you aware of the constant danger lurking around every corner

Vaporum will be released on the following dates/ formats:

Nintendo Switch: April 11th, 2019 ($24.99 / €24.99 / £19.99)
 Xbox One: April 10th, 2019 ($24.99 / €24.99 / £19.99)
PlayStation 4 EU: April 15th, 2019 (€24.99 / £19.99)
PlayStation 4 NA: April 9th, 2019 ($24.99)
