Please be advised that the following contains the first DECLASSIFIED images and video confirmation of THE WAR OF THE WORLDS: SIBERIA from 1CGS. The assets recovered indicate a third-person view of action, adventure, suspense set in an alternate universe version of 1896, where an alien invasion much like the one described in The War of the Worlds by Herbert G. Wells, takes place. Our central agents must accomplish their missions and escape, at any cost. It is the first of many pieces of intelligence to become public as THE WAR OF THE WORLDS: SIBERIA continues to develop for the Personal Console (PC).
THE WAR OF THE WORLDS: SIBERIA is an action-adventure game inspired by the classic science fiction novel by Herbert G. Wells.
In an alternate 1896, Earth was the target of a massive Martian invasion. The War of the Worlds: Siberia follows survivors who attempt to save themselves by fleeing the panic-stricken Petrograd, heading for the eastern end of the Russian Empire. Using combat, puzzle-solving, and stealth, central personnel will evade danger in order to succeed in fulfilling their missions.
KNOWN INTELLIGENCE:
A thrilling third-person view action-adventure experience.
A unique setting of the Russian Empire under the rule of alien invaders.
An intricate story with memorable characters, historically inspired by 19th-century Russia.
Equipped with dozens of weapons, from cap-lock rifles and black powder pistols to the Maxim machine gun.
The time has finally come for PlayStation® and Xbox gamers to answer the call of the Ravenswatch and repel the Nightmare invasion. After a successful early access period and PC release at the end of September, with already over 700,000 active players, the co-op action-roguelike Ravenswatch is now available on PlayStation®5, PlayStation®4, Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One. The game will be released for Nintendo Switch™ on the 23rd of January 2025.
Time is running out, so go it alone or assemble a crossplay team up to 4 players and defend the world of Rêverie as best you can:
Players take on the role of one of 9 heroes, all inspired by old folk tales and legends. Little Red Riding Hood, the Snow Queen, Geppetto or Aladdin: each character has its own unique mechanics. In the purest roguelike tradition, each run unlocks skills that make heroes more powerful. Enemies, however, are formidable and leave no room for respite. Alone or playing alongside friends, the key to success lies in knowing and learning the enemy’s patterns!
An intangible threat hangs over the Guardians: the advance of time. Players have 3 days and 3 nights to strengthen their heroes. It’s up to them to optimize their actions within the allotted time, completing quests, finding Magical Objects and meeting other challenges before facing the level’s Master Nightmare.
In Ravenswatch, no two runs are alike. With over 200 talents, 50 magical items, endless build combinations, 4 difficulty levels, custom game modes and online cross-play co-op up to 4 players, the game offers an addictive experience and high replay value.
Ravenswatch is now available on PC, PlayStation®5, PlayStation®4, Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One. The Nintendo SwitchTM version will be available January 23rd 2025.

9x diamond-certified and gaming enthusiast Post Malone is set to make his mark on the extraction shooter genre with the arrival of the biggest ‘Hunt: Showdown 1896’ event to date – Post Malone’s Murder Circus! Bringing a unique blend of musical artistry and supernatural horror to the Bayou, Gulch and beyond, Post Malone takes on the role of the outcast Ringmaster turned deposed King – the lord of the circus and the human oddities who made up its twisted crew.
Post Malone comments about his passion for ‘Hunt: Showdown 1896’:
“You’re either hundred percent in or you’re done. I could either rock this dude and send him off, or I’m totally naked…. Every game I’m shaking, like this is awesome. Whenever you pull it off, I feel like I’m the best player in the entire world.”
Post Malone’s Murder Circus invites players into a nightmarish world where a once-traveling carnival has been transformed by a mysterious artifact known as the HelioStone. Post Malone, who plays the role of the vengeance driven Deposed King, the former Ringmaster, brings his unique creative vision to the game’s gritty historical landscapes marred by Corruption.
Driven out by the HelioStone’s power, Post shadowed the Circus across the continent vowing to destroy HelioStone. Every time it manifests, he does his best to tear it down to the ground. Sometimes he recruits others – bounty hunters, desperadoes, and suchlike – to do it. Sometimes he takes on the task himself. But always the HelioStone eludes him, and so the chase continues.
Post Malone’s Murder Circus also features a new Monster – orphaned bear cubs, turned unnatural beast, Ursa Mortis. With deformed bodies and minds, twisted into savage hunger by the HelioStone, the monstrous bear that stalks the Circus grounds and will charge at Hunters and attack with a lethal roar.
The collaboration introduces a series of themed hunter skins, weapon variants, enemies and more. Players are invited to experience a surreal carnival-inspired aesthetic that combines the game’s gritty historical setting and extraction shooter mechanics with the artist’s signature style.
Scott Lussier, Game Director for Hunt: Showdown 1896 comments on the collaboration:
“We’re thrilled to have had the opportunity to collaborate with such a passionate and high-profile Hunt fan such as Post Malone. Hunt: Showdown 1896 has always been about creating immersive, high-stakes gameplay. And with Post Malone’s Murder Circus, we’re bringing a new level of intensity and dark entertainment to the Hunt universe”.
