DiRT Rally Hurtles Onto Steam Earluy Access

Codemasters today invites gamers to join them on the road toward the future of the DiRT series with the release of DiRT Rally on Steam Early Access. Launching initially with 17 classic and current cars and 36 challenging stages spread across three very different real world environments, the team will be adding regular free updates featuring more vehicles, locations and game modes as they build a new, exciting breed of focussed and challenging off-road racing.

Globally renowned for delivering realistic, yet fun, driving games, Codemasters is once more bringing its talent and experience to the world of rallying. With DiRT Rally, the team wanted to take off-road racing to a new level of realism, so tore up its previous pace notes and completely rebuilt the physical simulation and driving models to truly capture the feeling of each individual car as it hurtles along a variety of surfaces in different conditions.

Codemasters has captured the essence of what makes rally unique – that sense of trying to remain in control of your emotions, as you hurtle along dangerous, undulating roads at breakneck speed, aiming to squeeze everything out of your car whilst knowing that one crash could irreparably harm your stage time. It’s the ultimate test of a driver’s skill, and it’s the ultimate in high risk, high reward gameplay.

The community will be DiRT Rally’s co-driver and their feedback will help shape the evolution of the experience. For players joining DiRT Rally in Early Access and the road ahead, the team want their feedback. They’ll be helping to test theories and providing vital data that will help to refine DiRT Rally.

Hatred Will be Released on June 1, 'Human Shields' Gameplay Trailer
引发话题的暴力射击游戏《恨意满天 Hatred》6 月 1 日上市 公开新宣传影片

　　波兰游戏开发商 Destructive Creations 28 日宣布，PC 暴力射击游戏《恨意满天（暂译，Hatred）》即将于 6 月 1 日在 Steam 平台上市，同步公开新一波宣传影片。

　　《恨意满天》当初一开始公布时，由于影片呈现充满恨意的一名男子持枪攻击街上的普通市民与警察引发争议，后来在申请通过 Steam Greenlight 时也引发玩家正反不同的讨论，一度遭到下架，后来在 Valve 共同创办人 Gabe Newell 介入下，再度重返 Steam Greenlight 开放投票，并顺利取得 Steam 平台上架机会。

　　游戏故事描述恨意充满主角全身，主角厌倦毫无存在价值的人类，唯一想做的就是拿枪带来世界末日，以冷血方式到纽约郊区消灭人类。 当然，主角也将面临将来打倒自己的武装部队，玩家得想办法隐藏与反击。

　　Destructive Creations 接受欧洲游戏媒体 Eurogamer 访问时指出，《恨意满天》的上市日期是经过仔细思考后的决定，他们不希望干扰到自己祖国波兰最大游戏作品（指《巫师 3：狂猎》）的上市；Destructive Creations 创意总监 Jarosław Zieliński 表示，原本他们打算在 5 月 19 日推出《恨意满天》 （注：《巫师 3：狂猎》上市日期为 5 月 19 日），但老实说，他们自己到那时应该是在玩《巫师 3：狂猎》。

　　《恨意满天》预定 6 月 1 日上市，目前官网开放预购价为 16.66 欧元（约新台币 565 元）。

NCSoft Announces Blade & Soul to Launch in Europe and North America this Winter

NCSoft has announced that Blade & Soul will launch in Europe and North America this winter. Blade & Soul is a game unlike any other, set in an Asian, mythological world where fast-paced combat collides with the visual beauty of a Far-East martial arts massively-multiplayer online universe. Since its initial launch in Asia in mid-2012, Blade & Soul has attracted tens of millions of players across South Korea, China, Taiwan, and Japan, while emerging as one of the top MMORPGs in the world.

“Blade & Soul is one of the most anticipated online games by Western consumers", commented John Burns, senior vice president of publishing at NCSoft West. “This is a tremendous opportunity to bring one of the most successful and fun online games in Asia to our Western audience this winter and we can’t wait to deliver this extraordinary and distinct gaming experience to millions of new players across Europe and North America”.

Blade & Soul delivers an engaging story and vibrant world for players to explore. In the game, players must fight to avenge the death of their fallen master in a classic Wuxia storyline. Wuxia, which literally means "martial hero", is a broad genre of Chinese fiction concerning the adventures of martial artists in ancient China. As players explore the world in Blade & Soul, they will see a fusion of Asian cultures that delivers stunning landscapes and vistas.

Blade & Soul defies typical MMO conventions, delivering action-based combat with ability combos and a flexible party role system that does not require dedicated healers. It gives players unprecedented movement abilities around the world as their characters leap over mountains and fly through the air.

The first major Blade & Soul livestream will take place on Thursday, 21st at 10AM PDT / 19:00 CEST / 18:00 BST at twitch.tv/bladeandsoul. In addition, fans can receive exclusive and on-going information on all things Blade & Soul by signing up for the game’s newsletter at bladeandsoul.com. Player feedback will help shape the game as it evolves, so fans are encouraged to follow and interact with Blade & Soul via social media and other communication channels, including: Twitter (@bladeandsoul) and Facebook (facebook.com/bladeandsoul)

Selected fans who sign up on the site will be given access to the closed beta that is planned for autumn of 2015 in Europe and North America. At launch, the Western version of Blade & Soul will be fully localised into English, German and French (including voice-over). Additional information about the business model will be revealed this summer.

Game of Thrones - Episode 4 'Sons of Winter' Coming Next Week

   

'Game of Thrones: A Telltale Games Series' Continues Next Week with 'Sons of Winter'

Based on the award-winning HBO television drama series, Game of Thrones: A Telltale Games Series tells the story of House Forrester. Caught up in the events of The War of the Five Kings, they are placed in a precarious position where members of the household must do everything they can to prevent the house from meeting its doom.

The game series is based on the world, characters and events seen in HBO's TV show, which in turn is based on George R. R. Martin's books (A Song of Ice and Fire). The events in the game series begin towards the end of Season Three of the series, and end right before the beginning of Season Five. Players will visit familiar locations such as King's Landing and The Wall, as well as unfamiliar locations such as Ironrath, the home of House Forrester.

The game is played from five different points of view. Each is a member of House Forrester; either a direct family member, or a person in service to the House. Scattered across Westeros and Essos, each will play their part in seeking to save House Forrester from destruction.

In Episode 4, the fate of the scattered Forresters hangs in the balance, and no one allied with the family is safe. An unexpected meeting offers Rodrik a new opportunity to free Ironrath from its Whitehill stranglehold, but with young Ryon Forrester still held prisoner, his next moves are critical. Gared must abandon Castle Black and venture beyond the Wall in search of the mysterious North Grove, risking encounters with Wildlings and worse. In King's Landing, the population is reeling from a recent royal death, and Mira must step carefully in an increasingly complex game of politics where secrets are traded as currency. Far away in Essos, Asher infiltrates the slave city of Meereen at the behest of Daenerys Targaryen, but will the friendship he holds dear break under the strain of a mission that raises memories best forgotten?
