The Earth Defense Force (EDF) is once again called upon to protect the planet from the aggressive extraterrestrial invaders and determine the true purpose of the giant ring-shaped object that has recently appeared in the sky. Will the EDF be able to pull humanity from the edge of defeat, or will this be the species’ last stand?

Blood Bowl 3 Reveals Infographic from Last Beta Run!

Lesquin, France, July 5, 2022 – Greetings, sports analysts! The third phase of the Blood Bowl 3 beta came to an end on 12 June, and the feedback from fans has been overwhelmingly positive. Let’s take a look at a few stats from the beta, which saw an abundance of blood, sweat, and tears, along with a heavy dose of stunning successes and failures.

Nearly 11,000 coaches led their teams onto the pitches, with a total of 35,755 hours of game time. The coaches' strategies led to 23,823 touchdowns, 2,668 completed passes, and 216,933 tackles were expertly dodged (though sometimes it was just blind luck).

Speaking of luck, a few coaches had less than their fair share: there were 752 dropped passes, and 26,884 (intentional) fouls were called by the referees - to the crowd’s evident displeasure. Dices do count, but by the end of the day, victory rewards no one but the best tactician!

“What about brutality” you’re asking? There were 224,194 injuries, 4,618 players left the pitch in a coffin, and… 575 team-mates were hurled across several yards by Ogres, Trolls, and Treemen. This is Blood Bowl after all.

Wackier, bloodier, and more spectacular than ever, Blood Bowl 3 is a hit with fans of the universe and strategy games alike. At launch, the game will include 12 teams each with their own pitch and cheerleaders, Solo and Multiplayer modes, and more customization options than any Blood Bowl game has offered before.

Blood Bowl 3 will be available on PC, PlayStation®4, PlayStation®5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, and Nintendo Switch™ later in 2022.

Upgrade your deck: you can boost the effects of cards by adding gems. You can also transmute your cards to create completely new effects!

Collect as many cards as possible: unlike other games of this type where refining your deck is one of the most common strategies, Roguebook encourages players to build as big a deck as possible to unlock unique skills for your heroes. These skills can be crucial to the success of your quest!

Explore the world in your own way: the chapters of Roguebook are told in a non-linear way. Reveal areas of the map with the ingenious ink system and explore as much of the map as possible to unearth all its treasures!

Every run counts: in true roguelike fashion, you must start from the beginning after a defeat. But you become more powerful with each run thanks to the new cards, skills, and permanent upgrades you have unlocked!

Roguebook is now available on PC, PlayStation®4, PlayStation®5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S and Nintendo SwitchTM, and Stadia

Roguebook is on Facebook, Twitter, Discord, and YouTube.

New Explosive Trailer for Rogue Company!

Alpharetta, Georgia USA - 25 MARCH 2020: Hi-Rez Studios® and First Watch Games® have released an explosive gameplay trailer for their slick cross-platform team shooter Rogue Company™. Delivering action, tactics and a whole lot of attitude, the new trailer reveals Rogue Company’s energetic gameplay and third-person, action movie flair.

Watch the hired guns of Rogue Company cause mayhem in the gameplay reveal trailer.

Launching same-day this summer on Nintendo Switch™, PC via Epic Games Store, PlayStation®4 and Xbox One®, Rogue Company features an ever-growing roster of mercenaries, game modes, weapons, and gadgets.

Taking on million-dollar contracts from governments and special interests, Rogue Company is a vigilante force going where governments can’t stop credible and imminent threats. Relying on public opinion and popular support, many Rogues embrace their newfound celebrity. Elite, sexy and paid, Rogue Company operates between the lines and on the run.

Headed-up by Lead Game Designer - and former Halo world champion - Scott Lussier, Rogue Company is the debut game from First Watch Games; a band of Hi-Rez Studios developers and industry veterans with experience working on some of gaming’s most famous and successful shooters.

“Gamers should be able to play with their friends, regardless of platform”, says Lussier. “Rogue Company is all about bringing together a huge community of gunslingers and giving them a depth of gameplay to show off their individual style.”

“We're tired of grown-up shooters being overly serious”, says Chris Larson, Executive Producer. “Rogue Company matches a modern, high-style universe with tight, tactical action gameplay. The alpha testers are loving it and we can't wait to welcome more of you in as we gear up for launch!"

Rogue Company is currently in Alpha (apply here), available to wishlist via Epic Games Store and will release this summer on all platforms. Watch the gameplay trailer here.
