Indie publisher 663 Games revealed that action roguelite title Realm of Ink is coming to Consoles and PC via Steam in 2024. Developed by Leap Studio and Maple Leaf Studio, the game will be the publisher's first global game launch following the success of their previous Asia-specific published titles.
Realm of Ink is an Ink-style action rogue-lite game beautifully brought to life with a distinctive mix of 2.5D Chinese-style ink painting and modern art direction, along with a rich combat system using multiple playable characters. Its deep and intriguing story discusses the philosophical significance of life as well as the beliefs of nihilism and existentialism.
During the hunt for a cunning Fox demon, the heroine and expert swordsperson Red, discovers that she is a fictional character within the short story collection called Realm of Ink. Only by unlocking the dark secrets of the Book Spirit will Red discover the truth of her existence and defy her fate.
The story unfolds in a virtual realm called "Realm of Ink," where inhabitants unknowingly exist as mere fabrications within a fictional world. Controlled by the mysterious Book Spirit, they obediently follow predetermined fates, oblivious to their cyclical lives.

RIPOUT, the sci-fi horror FPS from 3D Realms (@3DRealms) and indie developer Pet Project Games (@PetProjectGames), just unleashed a new trailer for RIPOUT(@RipoutGame), the game that lets you tear apart aliens and use their limbs as weapons. RIPOUT gives a new meaning to the phrase "arm yourself". Watch the new "No Safe Place in Space" trailer if you dare.
RIPOUT is a co-op horror shooter where players will fight their way through abandoned, mutant-infested spaceships, collect loot, and customize their character in search of the last remaining bastion of humanity. Will you and your trusty Pet Gun find Sanctuary in time, or will you perish alongside the rest of Earth's residents?
Titled “No Safe Place in Space,” the new trailer showcases the haunting environments awaiting players and their trusty Pet Gun as they explore procedurally generated derelict ships where monsters lie in wait, danger lurks around every turn, and even ordinary objects can turn into lethal surprises!
Ripout features include:
Hazardous Levels: Players will discover a variety of levels, some on the verge of collapse, requiring platforming skills to traverse safely. Interactive machinery like retractable bridges offer new paths, but may draw hordes of monsters. Vents provide a claustrophobic challenge, as players are pursued relentlessly by smaller creatures.
Robots: Decommissioned robots may malfunction and become hostile. Avoiding contact with these hulking metal machines is often the safest way forward. Stealthily approach and deactivate them to gain resource rewards, or destroy them from a safe distance.
Mimic Chairs: Unassuming chairs become lurking enemies, mimicking ordinary seats while patiently awaiting their prey. Players must stay vigilant, promptly identifying and eliminating these mimics before they strike.
Mimic Doors: Even opening doors can become a tense experience, as monsters mimic doors until revealing themselves, armed with deadly close-range attacks and rifle fire. Players must utilize all available resources to combat these formidable adversaries.
Turrets: Derelict ships are equipped with dangerous turrets that can scan rooms, detect players, and unleash deadly firepower. Players can choose to dismantle them with precise shots or employ the Pet Gun's ferocious attack to tear them apart.
Steam Pipes: As ships crumble under pressure, ruptured steam pipes release scalding heat into the surroundings. Players must navigate these hazardous areas, either by avoiding the steam or cautiously ducking underneath to ensure safe passage.
Auxiliary Segments: Auxiliary Segments are special doors that hold valuable loot, guarded by locks and turrets. Players are encouraged to keep a keen eye out for these unique entrances while exploring, as the rewards they contain are well worth the effort.
RIPOUTlaunches on Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5 and PC later this year.
