Fantasy-themed action role-playing game 'Risen' announced for Xbox One, PS4, and Nintendo Switch

A mysterious volcanic island.

The heavy tremors on the island bode ill for its inhabitants. Ancient temples have risen from the ground recently, bizarre creatures are terrorizing the area. Fear and terror is spreading among the population.

The end of all hope?

A group of powerful men who call themselves "The Inquisitors" have taken it upon them-selves to put an end to these events. They send an expedition to this remote island, but a storm takes hold of the ship and destroys it at sea.

A hero will come.

As if by a miracle, you survive the shipwreck and are stranded on the volcanic island alone. You find yourself amidst a chaos of rebellion, tyranny, and mystic rituals. It is up to you to decide to which side the pendulum of fate will swing.

Delve into a gritty, raw, and atmospheric fantasy world in which every action has a consequence. In the epic world of Risen, filled with mysterious earthquakes, fearsome monsters, and unimaginable treasures, forge your path with the sword, learn the art of staff fighting, or become a powerful mage.

Risen Features:

  • Port of the cult RPG with full gamepad controls and reworked user interface.
  • Open world Action / RPG where every action has consequences.
  • Divided into four chapters, letting you decide which side you will join.
  • Over 20 different spells to choose from, cast either through scrolls or runes.
  • Fully seamless world streaming support—no loading screens.
  • With each level, your character will learn and improve their skills.
  • Countless side quests and creatures to discover.
  • Over 60 hours of immersive open world gameplay.

Check out the official announcement trailer below.

NARAKA: BLADEPOINT Devs Reveal Brand-New Documentary

NARAKA: BLADEPOINT Devs Reveal Brand-New Documentary
Published by: forahobby on Tuesday, December 13, 2022
Tagged: Gaming, Xbox One,

24 Entertainment released a new NARAKA: BLADEPOINT documentary video, reflecting on where their inspirations came from, and how they built a game that would go on to sell over 10 million copies, completely changing the online action genre. Sit down for some tea and meet the others that keep NARAKA and the players on their toes and listen the stories of the behind the scenes work that they do! #NARAKABLADEPOINT

NARAKA: BLADEPOINT Developers Reveal All In Brand-New Documentary

Fun fact: it all started with the iconic 1999 arena shooter, Quake III, as Lead Producer, Ray Kawn, explains. “It was so fun, but when I was playing it I came up with an idea. What if we played with swords instead of guns? Wouldn't it be more fun?” And so the seed was planted, an idea that Kwan and his team would ultimately grow into NARAKA: BLADEPOINT.

Something else you may not have known is that Viper Ning, the instantly recognizable face of NARAKA, underwent a dramatic makeover during development. In the documentary, 24 Entertainment reveal that their original mascot was a stoic swordsman, though the team wanted to shatter this stereotype and appeal to a wider international audience. By fusing the cinematic style of modern action games with the beauty of oriental aesthetics, the Blind Blademaster of West Yushan was born.

The developers also discuss the challenge of breaking into the battle royale genre, years after its original surge in popularity. Instead of thinking there was no hope, 24 Entertainment knew that that this genre was a perfect fit for their unique blend of dynamic player movement and melee action, as Kwan explains. The shrinking safe zone forces players to fight and adapt instead of simply fleeing when their health is low, solving an age-old issue with multiplayer action games.

Not only would they need to breach an overcrowded genre, the studio were challenged to make their game accessible to a wider audience, something melee-focused games have always struggled to achieve. Revealing all, the documentary explores how NARAKA’s gameplay went through many iterations, from something one tester refused to even touch, to a point where its own developers couldn’t stop playtesting from their desks.

Chessarama is coming to consoles & PC in 2023

Chessarama is coming to consoles & PC in 2023
Published by: forahobby on Friday, December 09, 2022
Tagged: Gaming, Xbox One,

Brazilian independent studio Minimol Games is proud to announce that their upcoming game Chessarama will be launched in Q2 2023 on consoles and PC and has become an official sponsor of the world's top online chess tournament, Play Magnus Group's flagship Champions Chess Tour, for the remaining event in the 2022 season and the duration of the 2023 season. Chessarama will also sponsor chess24's coverage of the FIDE World Championship cycle.

Minimalist chess-based puzzle game Chessarama is coming to consoles & PC in 2023

In Chessarama, the players will be able to enjoy a world of premium minimalist games, unlock collectibles and compete against each other by climbing the leaderboard. The reimagined chess game scenarios include cultivating a farmyard, fighting a dragon and fighting as a legendary Ronin in feudal Japan.

The story of Chessarama cannot be understood without Raphael Dias, a young Brazilian developer and Ph.D. in Physics who has been marked by his discovery of Chess when he was 14. Chess drove not only him to have a more structured mindset and discipline in his life as student and professional, but also taught him values like respect and patience. His passion for video games came into the mix with Chess in 2019, when he decided to found the independent studio Minimol Games with the mission of developing minimalist and innovative chess-based games.

After 30 small games launched, over 250k copies sold and an average positive review ratio over 85%, Minimol Games is developing their most ambitious title to date, Chessarama. Chessarama is a collection of original chess-inspired turn-based games with their own rules, dioramas and designs.

Play Magnus Group and Minimol Games will work together to make chess accessible and attractive to a wider audience through Chessarama. The aim is fully in line with the wider objectives of the Play Magnus Group.

Chessarama launches on consoles & PC via Steam in Q2 2023!

Celebrates 50 Years of History with the Release of Atari 50: The Anniversary Celebration on Consoles and PC

A mix of video game collection-meets-anthology, Atari 50: The Anniversary Celebration showcases the history of Atari through a combination of retro and modern playable games, short videos, never-before-seen interviews, early development diaries, and more.

Other files and materials are also part of the package, including early development sketches, hardware schematics, internal memos, pictures, films, and other "artifacts," the majority of which have never been made public.

A digital romp through Atari’s enduring past and a peek into the creative minds that created the publisher’s legacy, Atari 50: The Anniversary Celebration invites players to explore the golden age of video games through a new lens. Watch Atari grow from a small Silicon Valley startup to the iconic brand it quickly grew to become, explore early game concepts, and enjoy a handful of reimagined fan-favorites lovingly created by developer Digital Eclipse.

Features Include:

  • Expert Insight Through Storytelling: The collection is outfitted with a handful of various never-before-seen interviews with past-and-present Atari leadership as well as other prolific names in the games industry; complemented, of course, by the video game developers who helped raise Atari to become an industry icon.

  • Playable History: The massive selection of over 100 games spans seven different platforms: Arcade, 2600, 5200, 7800, Atari 8-bit computers, and, for the first time ever on modern consoles, Atari Lynx and Jaguar! Play the classics like Tempest 2000, Asteroids, and Yars' Revenge, or dive into some deeper cuts.

  • Reimagined and Revisited: The team at Digital Eclipse created six new games for the collection that reimagines some of the most beloved Atari classics or put a twist on classic game themes, including Haunted House, Neo Breakout, Yars’ Revenge, Vctr Sctr, and the infamously never-finished Airworld.

Atari 50: The Anniversary Celebration is available on Xbox One and Series X|S, PlayStation 4|5, Nintendo Switch and Windows PC via Steam and Epic Games Store for $39.99. Atari 50: The Anniversary Celebration releases for Atari VCS later this year.
