Level editor and tools – mod support is coming!
Two new maps – includes a snow map and another yet to be revealed
Night versions of maps – this includes the release of special nighttime equipment
New weapons and equipment – toggleable optics, mini-shotgun attachments and more are planned, along with others based on post-launch community surveys
Hardcore ruleset across all modes – the option for hardcore rulesets will be made available to every game mode
PvP Frontline & Co-op Outpost game modes – these two new game modes were chosen in Sandstorm’s first community survey.

Recently-released CG teaser trailer

As the latest game in the acclaimed tactical shooter series, Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts drops players into the middle of the unforgiving Siberian wilderness, forcing them to contend with their toughest challenges yet – both natural and contractual. In addition to getting a first look at its contract-based mission structure, a wide range of locales and the flexibility with which players can approach mission engagements, the debut gameplay shines a spotlight on the brand new Rivals system.

Put simply, players will never truly be alone as they take on contracts, as they encounter rival contract killers. While players will need to carefully plan out and execute the perfect kill and exfiltration from a given encounter, they must also contend with the tension of an AI-controlled taking on the same contract in tandem. Whether this involved removing a rival from the equation or being quick enough to beat them to the punch, players will have more variables to consider than ever before, ensuring that no two missions go down the same, all the while ratcheting up the tension.

From its in-depth single-player campaign and range of multiplayer options, to its return-to-form, intense mission-based contracts system, Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts seeks to perfect the feeling of staring down a scope and planning your approach. Get ready to tackle the Siberian wilderness and all the unique environmental obstacles it brings with it, because Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts is taking aim.

Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts will launch in 2019 on PS4, Xbox One and PC. For more information about the Sniper Ghost Warrior series, head to SGWContracts.com, follow the team on Facebook, or join the conversation on Twitter.

[E3 2019] The Surge 2 smashes towards release with an incredible new E3 Trailer

The Surge 2 will continue Deck13 and Focus Home Interactive’s excellent Action-RPG series on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC on September 24. In a brand new, gorgeous E3 Trailer featuring The Day Is My Enemy by The Prodigy, get a glimpse of all the new features, stories, and enemies coming in this violent sci-fi sequel.

Inside the high walls of Jericho city, trapped in a technological apocalypse that threatens to consume everyone within, our hero fights to survive and uncover the truth of the disaster. Cult members hopped up on drugs, nanomachines, looters, and security forces will try to stop you wherever you go while a mysterious girl leads you to parts unknown.

This plays out on a backdrop of a world on the brink of simultaneous total collapse and technological ascendancy. Self-evolving nanobeasts crush buildings with swipes of their massive claws while the downtrodden, infatuated with machines through malfunctioning implants and rising religion, roam the streets in packs. The rich and wealthy exist above it all, while hunters try to capture their valuable nano-prey and what remains of the military maintains a flimsy order.

This is the world of The Surge 2. Have a very safe day.

The Surge 2 releases September 24 on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC. Check out the new E3 Trailer now. Pre-orders are available now, including the Limited Edition – check the store page for more details.

AT E3 2019 THE TERROR RISES… AGAIN!

SURPRISE! Funcom’s Conan Chop Chop is a real game

On April 1st Funcom cheekily announced the upcoming game Conan Chop Chop as an April Fools’ Day joke. But surprise! Not only is it real, the game will release on PC, PlayStation 4, Xbox One and Nintendo Switch in less than three months’ time!

OSLO, Norway – June 10th, 2019:

“… game that is definitively not real, but probably should be”

“I’m thinking this might actually be a hit”

“Why is it that every April Fools’ game I see I ACTUALLY wanna buy it”

These were some of the remarks we received from press and viewers when we announced Conan Chop Chop on April 1st. The game was perceived to be an April Fools’ Day joke, but today we set the record straight: The roguelike hack and slash game Conan Chop Chop is very real indeed. So real that it’s going to release on PC, PlayStation 4, Xbox One and Nintendo Switch on September 3rd 2019!

In fact, Funcom and the Australian developers at Mighty Kingdom are proud to announce that Conan Chop Chop will be the most realistic stick figure game ever to feature Conan the Barbarian!

“Keeping this a secret has been a hardship,” admits Funcom CEO Rui Casais. “The feedback we got from fans when we released the April Fools’ Day trailer was amazing and remarkably unanimous, and so I have been itching to give them the good news ever since.”

“But don’t be fooled by the game’s humoristic and quirky looks. There is a lot of hard work being put into this, and the game should thrill roguelike fans and hack & slash fans alike,” says Casais.

The game will support up to 4 players couch co-op and is set in Hyboria, the world created by fantasy author Robert E. Howard more than 80 years ago.

You will be tasked with thwarting the plans of the evil wizard Thoth-Amon, who plans to resurrect the even eviler wizard Xaltotun. If he succeeds, he will condemn the world to an eternity of darkness and enslavement. Only you can stop him, but in order to do so you must use all your cunning. All your guile. You must summon all your courage and swordsmanship. You must … Chop Chop! 

Key features:

1-4 players: Conan Chop Chop supports couch co-op.

Diverse cast to suit your playstyle: Play as Conan, Pallantides, Valeria or Bêlit, all known heroes in the Conan universe.

Diverse word: Explore the desert of Koth, the enchanted Darkwood, the burning slopes of Hyperborea and the icy world of Vanaheim, each with their own deadly dungeon.

Lots of loot: Use everything from a broom to a bastard sword to hack your foes to bits.

Astonishing combos: CCC will feature not only the ability to swing left and right, you will also learn even flashier fighting moves as you progress.

Ruthless bosses: Now is finally your chance to go up against a giant gorilla in a cape! But beware killer boss moves, such as Lava Reflux, Tail Whip and Loogie Glob.

Infinite replayability: Randomly generated maps, tons of weapons and abilities ensure that every game will be a whole new experience. The game is superdeadly, but you will get to unlock new weapons for your next playthrough.
