EVERSPACE 2 Zharkov: The Vortex Launch Trailer

2021/08/04

Geek News, News, Trailers / Videos, Windows PC News

ROCKFISH Games has released the second major Early Access update to their spacefaring looter shooter RPG, EVERSPACE 2— Zharkov: The Vortex opens up an all-new star system, a new spaceship class, companion, main and side missions, activities, challenges, and more than 120 improvements and fixes being added to the space action RPG.

Set in a gas cloud system, Zharkov: The Vortex is packed full of new environments, locations, and star bases to discover. Fair warning, Zharkov is EVERSPACE 2’s most dangerous area yet as it is filled with lightning storms, ruined hulks, and strong enemies seeking their next target.

Playing as Adam, a former clone pilot, the player will dive deep into the shady dealings of the Grady & Brunt mining operation and uncover secrets leading to mysteries of The Ancients, and learn how the factions in the game are all connected.

During a certain section of a high-risk undercover operation, players have to prove their 6DOF maneuvering skills when navigating a remote-controlled maintenance drone through narrow tunnels and pass laser security barriers undetected to prevent an inside job from going south.

Further progressing through the fully voiced campaign, EVERSPACE: Encounters players will recognize the new companion added, an old friend: Tareen, the Okkar trader will join the roster of companions and provide some very useful perks. As the new quartermaster, Tareen will expand the player’s storage and increase the number of ships that can be parked at the Homebase.

The latest EVERSPACE 2 ship, the Vanguard, is a lightweight reconnaissance fighter with a focus on speed, quick maneuvers, and defensive measures – perfect for players who love to delve headfirst into the battle and take out enemies in quick succession. The Vanguard’s Special “overcharges” the ship’s shield to up to 200% capacity when boosting or when in Cruise Mode allowing for shield-buffed attacks. This ship also receives an increased critical hit chance when attacking enemies from the rear, making clever combat positioning a significant advantage in dogfights. The Vanguard’s Ultimate, Time Extender, slows down time giving plenty of opportunity to regain the upper hand in any given combat situation if things get messy.

Vanguard ships also come with one out of four random Passive Perks that let cruise drive to be activated with enemies nearby, reduces Web effect by 50%, lowers up to 20% support device cooldown depending on overcharge percentage, or makes Time Extender immediately restore all weapon and boost energy.

Along with the Vanguard, players will also be able to access the second tier of all other current ship types, granting new wing styles and better base stats.

The Zharkov: The Vortex update also brings a significant amount of additional features such as new missile and mine types, a grappling hook, additional music tracks, new gameplay mechanics, and more. For more details, read the latest Steam News Update.
Zharkov: The Vortex Early Access Update Features:

New Star System – Zharkov: The Vortex takes players deep into the eye of the storm
New Companion – Tareen the Okkar Trader joins as the homebase quartermaster, expanding storage capabilities and allowing for more ships to be held in the base hanger
New Light Fighter Class: The Vanguard – A lightweight, highly maneuverable reconnaissance ship with a high emphasis on speed/mobility and defensive measures
New Main and Side Missions – The plot thickens, so players will start putting the pieces together of how everything is connected in this mind-bending sci-fi story
New Gear – The new Fusion Hook allows for quick turns through asteroid fields; new Corrosion, Armorbreaker, Shieldbreaker, and Destabilizer missiles and Web and Corrosion mine launchers add an arsenal of new ways to destroy enemy ships
Newly Voiced Lines – Added English voice acting for dialog added since the previous Contracts/Hinterlands update
New Activities, Mini-Missions, and Challenges – All kinds of activities have been scattered through the new star system
And More – New music, ship colors, item set bonuses, item affix, crafting UI/UX improvements, and lots more!

The full changelog can be found here. A high resolution image of the EVERSPACE 2 2021 roadmap can be downloaded here. The game is currently 20% off on Steam. Deal ends on August 9, 10:00 am PDT.

The all-new animated special from Lucasfilm and the LEGO Group continues the rich legacy of collaboration between Lucasfilm and the LEGO® brand and is a seasonal celebration of the villainous dark side of the Star Wars galaxy— just in time for Halloween.

After the events of “The Rise of Skywalker,” Poe and BB-8 must make an emergency landing on the volcanic planet Mustafar where they meet the greedy and conniving Graballa the Hutt who has purchased Darth Vader’s castle and is renovating it into the galaxy’s first all-inclusive Sith-inspired luxury hotel. While waiting for his X-Wing to be repaired, Poe, BB-8, Graballa, and Dean (a plucky and courageous young boy who works as Graballa’s mechanic) venture deep into the mysterious castle with Vader’s loyal servant, Vaneé. Along the way, Vaneé shares three creepy stories linked to ancient artifacts and iconic villains from across all eras of Star Wars. As Vaneé spins his tales and lures our heroes deeper into the shadowy underbelly of the castle, a sinister plan emerges. With the help of Dean, Poe and BB-8 will have to face their fears, stop an ancient evil from rising, and escape to make it back to their friends.

EMG and KRYTAC Unveil FN P90 Tactical Submachine Airsoft Gun

2021/08/02

Jerry Paxton

Action Sports, Airsoft News, Articles, Geek News, News

Evike Manufacturing Group (EMG), the production and distribution subsidiary of Evike.com, the worldwide leading airsoft retailer, announce the airsoft reproduction of the FN P90® Tactical Submachine Gun, manufactured in collaboration with KRISS USA Inc.’s premier brand of airsoft products, KRYTAC®, under license granted by Cybergun SA.

The EMG P90® AEG is a 1:1 representation of the FN P90® Tactical SMG, a top loading, bullpup submachine gun, with MIL-STD 1913 Picatinny top rail. The body is made of a durable, impact resistant, polymer, with an aluminum upper receiver; and an ambidextrous magazine release, charging handles, and selector switch. The P90® is a select fire SMG with a compound trigger in Auto mode, a half press fires one round, a full press fires automatic. The EMG P90® is fed through a 200 rounds mid capacity magazine, with selectable 50 rounds capacity switch.

“Evike Manufacturing Group (EMG) is excited to bring this new Licensed FN P90® to the Airsoft and training market,” according to George Melahn, Evike.com Marketing Manager. “We are very pleased to collaborate with KRYTAC® and Cybergun on this endeavor.”

“The P90® AEG is beloved for its compact size, weight, and ease of upgradability. We’ve elevated this great platform in the same way that every KRYTAC product stands above the rest,” states KRISS USA Marketing Manager, Tim Seargeant. “Subtle, but significant, features are designed into this P90 to improve the useability and ownership experience. The trigger pull is adjustable through a small port behind the grip. The hop up window opens when pulling the charging handle, and it’s large enough to be adjusted while wearing gloves. Removing the butt plate reveals the quick change spring guide and a generous battery compartment, due to the fuse mounting to the gearbox, reducing unnecessary wiring. Internally, 8mm ball bearings support all three gears, integrated MOSFET, T-plug connector, and electronic fire control unit with last round cut off, when using KRYTAC Magazines.”

The EMG P90® will be available worldwide beginning in September 2021. Standard packaging will include one mid capacity magazine, metal P90® muzzle device, Tamiya to T-plug battery connector, and one picatinny side rail section. Pricing and performance will vary by region. For more information on the EMG P90® visit the product page at www.evike.com.
