Today we are welcoming you on the bridge of a futuristic carrier. You are in command and the mission is simple: conquer the isles of the Archipelago making the most of the combined arms army that you have on board.
This is what Carrier Command players from the ’80s were experiencing and this is what MicroProse is bringing back in this modern and ambitious remake.
What will be the Carrier Command 2 experience?
Carrier Command 2 is Strategy, Planning and Teamwork on a scale that is both engaging and manageable. True to MicroProse’s heritage, Carrier Command 2 is all about meaningful decisions.
Strategize: Gather intel from your vehicles’ radars, pick your tools of the trade, and launch your attacks where the enemy is weaker. The approach you take to a situation will play a big part in the outcome.
Plan: Once you have taken an island you will need to exploit and defend the resources it provides. Ensuring these supply lines remain open will be key to your survival. Think ahead.
Teamwork: Make the most of different unit synergies and create combined arms assaults to efficiently win battles. On top of that, get into each and every vehicle and take part in the action. Lead from the front!
A Strategic Challenge
In the near future humanity’s hunger for mineral resources and fossil fuel has only increased, and a newly discovered chain of islands offers an abundance of both…to whoever can take control of them first.
Your mission: Command a mighty carrier ship, multi-role aircraft, amphibious tanks, drones and more as you attempt to establish a secure network of bases within the archipelago.
Unfortunately, you are not alone.
Every step of the way, you will be competing against rival AI or human carrier commanders whose technical capabilities are a match for your own, are every bit as determined to succeed, and have no qualms about blowing you out of the water!
Success or failure will come down to not just superior overall strategy but also the chance to turn the tide of the battle by assuming direct control of individual vehicles to defend your bases or stage a direct attack on your enemy!
Winning combination
Carrier Command 2 combines a sophisticated real-time strategy with detailed vehicle simulation, allowing the player to choose exactly how and where they focus their attention. This unique blend of gameplay also makes for a huge amount of replayability.

With Werewolf: The Apocalypse – Earthblood releasing on February 4, 2021, NACON and Cyanide are pleased to unveil a 6-minute gameplay video featuring the game’s exploration, stealth and brutal action. For the release of this video, Julien “Patch” Desourteaux, Game Director at Cyanide, provides insight into the game’s development, and its roots in the World of Darkness – a shared story universe where supernatural beings roam hidden from human’s sight.
The biggest challenge for Cyanide was implementing all the mechanics for an action RPG: designing the combat systems, balancing the effects, working on different types of animations, and more… When the main character, Cahal, shifts to his Crinos form, players must feel like a bestial predator. Thus, a “stance” system was implemented so players can switch between agility and ferocity according to the situation.
The team went to considerable effort to create a visceral beat’em up game while staying faithful to the original tabletop roleplaying game. In Werewolf: The Apocalypse, the Garou are warriors of Gaia, the Mother Earth, and are fighting to save the planet from the Wyrm’s corruption. This aspect of the game is visible when the players explore environments like an overexploited forest, an arid desert or an offshore oil rig.
—
Werewolf: The Apocalypse – Earthblood is the first action-RPG game adapted from the eponymous horror franchise. Mature, brutal, and complex, it invites the player to embody Cahal throughout his quest of bloody redemption. He’ll play an essential role in the great war led by the Garou against Endron, a global corporation whose activities are devastating the natural world.
Werewolf : The Apocalypse – Earthblood will be available February 4, 2021 on PlayStation®4, PlayStation®5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S and PC (Epic Game Store).

Wizards of the Coast has granted Tactical Adventures a license to use the Dungeons & Dragons SRD 5.1 content and rules in Solasta: Crown of the Magister.
Solasta is a team-based adventure game where each character plays a critical role in the campaign and can be a hero. The dynamic and mysterious world features elements of verticality, allowing players to use their surroundings as an element of strategy. Players can position ranged characters on high vantage points or send their thief down into shafts and caverns to scope out what lies ahead. In Solasta, light is a tool to explore the depths and hallows of dungeons or can be used as a weapon against the creatures of the dark, but if players aren’t careful, it will give away the party’s position to nasty creatures bent on their demise.
