Styx: Shards of Darkness unveils the "Art of Stealth" trailer

Styx: Shards of Darkness is Cyanide Studio’s upcoming Stealth Adventure game arriving March 2017 on PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC. Today, watch Styx subvert Elven defenses in a stealthy attack that sees him using throwing daggers, knives, traps and even chandeliers to distract and kill his enemies, and steal the coveted Quartz, a source of magical power.

As a nimble Goblin, Styx’s strengths are boosted by a magical Amber flowing through his veins, allowing him a plethora of magical abilities such as amber vision, a short-lived invisibility, and even the possibility to clone himself. As well as these, Shards of Darkness introduces crafting, allowing Styx to create tools and gadgets to distract, disable, and kill his foes.

Use both magic and mayhem to infiltrate huge environments on the hunt for Quartz in Styx: Shards of Darkness, releasing March 2017 on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC! You can preorder the game now on Steam to get 10% off and exclusive access to the Akenash set, donning the outfit and dagger from Styx's first adventure.

Following its positive reception from press and players, the centuries-old goblin assassin Styx returns in a new stealth game, Styx: Shards of Darkness, with a bigger budget, bigger ideas, and a new engine: Unreal 4.

Master of Shadows was a valiant exploration into the world of the green goblin thief, but Shards of Darkness will delve deeper into a complex narrative and fully realized world. Following the fall of Akenash tower, an extraordinary matter has forced Styx out of hiding to infiltrate Korrangar, the city of the Dark Elves. Supposedly impregnable, a diplomatic summit offers Styx a chance at slipping in unnoticed, as he learns that the event is nothing but a mere façade... Embark upon a stealthy adventure with new enemies, new environments, and a plethora of new mechanics aimed at refining the abilities and movement of Styx ; grappling around corners, climbing ropes, and using his trusty knife as a zip-wire. Shards of Darkness aims to offer unparalleled freedom of movement, along with refined stealth and assassination mechanics, expanding and improving on the strengths of Styx: Master of Shadows.

Styx: Shards of Darkness will be available begining of 2017 on PS4, Xbox One and PC.

Focus Home Interactive and Spiders reveal in video their new RPG: GreedFall

GreedFall is the latest RPG from Spiders, currently in development for PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC. Revealed at "le What's Next de Focus" event last week, GreedFall today unveil a first teaser trailer, hinting at the 17th century setting of the game and its ambiance embedded in magic. As showcased in this video, Greedfall aims for a very unique visual identity, inspired by Baroque art from 17th Century Europe, depicting grandiose sceneries in muted warm colors and dark undertones.







Explore a fresh new world as you set foot - alongside many other settlers, mercenaries and treasure hunters - on a remote island seeping with magic, rumored to be filled with riches and lost secrets. A grand journey filled with mystery follows, as you find yourself in the middle of ever-increasing tensions between the invading settlers and the locals, protected by supernatural beings, manifestation of the island's earthly magic.

With a strong focus on its core RPG identity, GreedFall follows Spiders' experience in building intricate worlds filled with mysteries to discover, weaving deep character interactions, and offering players great freedom to achieve quests and objectives in a multitude of different ways - through combat of course, but also through diplomacy, deception or stealth. The island of GreedFall is a living, ever-evolving world. Your actions, from seemingly trivial choices to the most important political decisions, will influence and affect its course as well as the relationship between the different factions established on the island.







"With GreedFall, Spiders is happy to renew its collaboration with Focus Home Interactive, our publisher for many years. The relationship of trust and transparency we have been developing together makes us particularly confident about the creation of this new project, more ambitious than all our past productions. Few publishers have the ability to support totally distinctive games like GreedFall and this secures us in our belief that we will manage with Focus Home Interactive to make this experience in a brand new universe both unique and unforgettable", says Jehanne Rousseau, CEO of Spiders.





"We are happy to once again support the studio, directed by Jehanne Rousseau, in a new collaboration. If Spiders' titles could have divided gamers in the past, they are gathering a bigger and bigger audience that enjoys the studios approach to the role-playing genre, allowing Spiders to improve game after game. Through this new collaboration, the studio will have more means to fully achieve its ambition. Thanks to its theme, its universe and its promise, Spiders' GreedFall will be a game to closely follow, for RPG lovers", says Cédric Lagarrigue, President of Focus Home Interactive.

GreedFall is planned for release in 2018. We will reveal more about the game the weeks and months to come.

《叛乱：沙漠风暴》公布大量新情报 已跳票至明年！

　　《叛乱2（Insurgency）》开发商New World Interactive在一年前公布游戏新作《叛乱：沙漠风暴（Insurgency: Sandstorm）》之后，终于在近日公布了这部新作的最新情报。其中包含了游戏首次公布了截图、玩法、剧情等大量要素。



　　《叛乱：沙漠风暴》将放弃前作的起源引擎转而采用最新的虚幻4引擎打造，在下面的截图中我们也可以看到新作更加优秀的画质表现（以下文中插图均为官方最新公布的游戏截图或概念图）。



　　新作中以下的重要特点也得到确认：

　　·　新作中地图场景更为广阔
　　·　引进轻型运输及火力支援载具
　　·　游戏将为载具作战专门设计相应的模式
　　·　新作将引进匹配对战模式同时也有新的反作弊和排名系统
　　·　改进游戏的弹道系统，新作中武器将有弹道下坠和子弹飞行时间
　　·　新作中将包含环境互动，包含攀爬和破门系统



　　正如之前公布的那样，新作将引进剧情模式，剧情模式将支持单人游戏和四人合作对战。同时在主机方面也开发者真在考虑加入本地双人分屏合作模式。另外游戏中将有一名根据真人事件“改编的”女性战士Yazidi Kurd。据游戏创意总监Andrew Spearin的介绍，这位女性角色和另一位女角色被当地武装分子囚禁，后来她们被一名美国和法国军人救出，之后他们成为了一个四人作战小队。



　　Andrew Spearin同时表示，游戏的剧情本身将集中表现个人在战争中的命运，而不会像很多3A射击游戏大作那样，表现电影大片级别的宏大场景，游戏在风格上更像一部个性的独立电影。



　　在剧情时长方面，Andrew Spearin表示，游戏剧情模式时长不会太长，大约在5小时左右，但是如果游戏在发售后取得成功，那么开发者将根据时间、玩家的要求和预算的因素来考虑推出更多的剧情DLC。



　　在游戏内容方面，Andrew Spearin表示，他们的目标是在游戏发售时引进十张游戏地图，同时游戏在发售之后，也将和前作一样保持定期的更新节奏，为游戏引进更多的免费内容。当然游戏也将继续支持创意工坊。



　　“我们理解《叛乱2》为什么卖到了300万份，因为我们在游戏发售之后，不断为游戏更新新内容，同时加上游戏支持创意工坊等因素。”Andrew Spearin在采访中提到。



　　最后在游戏的发售问题上，Andrew Spearin表示他们预期将在今年年末在PC平台举办一次A测，并在明年正式发售游戏。游戏之前宣布的是在今年年内发售，目前开来游戏确实已经跳票到了明年。

Styx: Shards of Darkness – Developer Cyanide explain the Making of a Goblin in video

Cyanide Studio, developers of Styx: Shards of Darkness, today share in video how they envisioned and gave life, personality and soul to the main lead of their game, the witty goblin Styx.

More ambitious than its predecessor in every department, Shards of Darkness takes our nimble thief out of the shadows of Akenash and into a bigger world with more skills, a greater bestiary, and more intricate, vertical level design. Shards of Darkness benefits from a larger production and better realization, with a story supplemented by cutscenes in which Styx expresses his trademark wit and snark - get a sneak peek at his sarcastic, fourth wall breaking humor in this video!

You’ll learn why Styx is not the kind of character you're used to playing, and how his wits outweigh his weaknesses. As a goblin, direct confrontation is the best way to kick the bucket, so you’ll have to study your environment to find the best approach and tools to overcome your enemies.

Discover how this “ugly little green character” adapts to your playstyle, as “you can be the guy that goes in and out through the level getting every item, or the sneaky one who never raises any alarm.” Take advantage of Styx’s acrobatic prowess and rain down from above, or use your tools and abilities to totally avoid detection – it’s entirely up to you. No matter how you play, he’ll be there for the entire journey, criticizing not only the player, but his creators too!

Styx: Shards of Darkness comes March 14th, 2017 to PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC! You can preorder the game now on Steam to get exclusive access to the Akenash set, donning the outfit and dagger from Styx's first adventure.

　　《冥河：暗影碎片》将带来新的敌人，新的环境，新的机制，改进Styx的能力和移动设计。Styx可以在角落与敌人扭打，攀爬绳索（在空中可以用匕首杀死敌人）。

　　本作承诺实现自由移动，改良过的潜行和刺杀机制，继承比发扬前作《冥河：暗影大师》的优势。

　　《冥河:暗影碎片》采用虚幻4引擎开发，将于2017年3月14日发售，登陆PC，PS4和Xbox One平台。

   

Styx: Shards of Darkness – Cooperative assassination revealed in new trailer

Styx: Shards of Darkness, Cyanide Studio’s new Stealth game, arrives March 14th to PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC.

At any time during your adventure, you are able to invite a friend to join your current session to sneak around with you for an alternative stealth experience. Two players opens up many more opportunities for clearing a level and reaching the objectives, but also doubles the risk of being spotted. Assassination partners must co-ordinate carefully in order to succeed!

Work together to create elaborate distractions, unleash dastardly synchronized assassinations, and run circles around larger enemies - every level and mission is playable in coop and will open a new array of gameplay possibilities.

Styx: Shards of Darkness unveils Launch Trailer before its release next week

Styx: Shards of Darkness, the Stealth game from Cyanide Studio, releases Tuesday March 14 on PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC! Players will take control of agile goblin thief Styx, as he assassinates, sneaks and snarks his way across an immense, dark fantasy world filled with deadly secrets and enemies. Watch the game’s lively launch trailer for a taste of Styx’s abilities, quick acrobatics, and even quicker tongue!

Styx’s latest adventure sees him making an unexpected deal with a mysterious human officer named Helledryn – and she’s got a job with far higher stakes than anything he’s tackled before. He must steal an ambassador’s scepter, which has attracted the interest of several nefarious (and goblin-hating) parties. As a reward for completing this dangerous mission, he’s promised a mountain of magical Amber, the source of Styx’s power and a substance he’s hopelessly addicted to. Of course, it’s not long until our green-skinned thief is stuck in a web of intrigue and assassination!

Master the verticality and non-linearity of Styx: Shards of Darkness’ open environments with an array of tools and abilities. Struggling to bypass a heavily guarded entrance? Scout the path ahead using your amber vision, distract the guards with a controllable goblin clone, then emerge from temporary invisibility to stab them in the back! Styx will always have a wide range of dastardly creative methods for completing his objectives – and if you join a friend in the drop-in coop, you’ll discover even more ways to unleash chaos!

Styx: Shards of Darkness releases Tuesday March 14 on PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC. Preorder the game now from participating stores, and get exclusive access to the Akenash set, donning the outfit and dagger from Styx's first adventure.
