J!NX Launches J!NX Brand and J!NX Pro Apparel Lines

SAN DIEGO — Nov. 14, 2016 — Jinx Inc. (stylized J!NX) has launched two new lines of apparel for gamers: the J!NX Brand, a collection of core clothing featuring comfortable fits and soft fabrics inspired by the upbeat and relaxed attitude of gaming, and J!NX Pro, an original label catering specifically to professional gamers and esports enthusiasts. Both lines build upon J!NX’s standing as a leading designer and provider of high-quality gaming lifestyle goods online and at retail. Drawing from this experience, both the J!NX Brand and J!NX Pro lines offer consumers a means of paying tribute to not just one particular video game license, but gaming culture as a whole.

“J!NX was created to celebrate gaming culture and lifestyle. Video games are not just something we do, they are woven into who we are,” said Sean Gailey, J!NX co-founder and CEO. “That passion and expertise uniquely position us to establish the J!NX Brand and J!NX Pro lines as the gold standard for core and competitive gaming apparel at an unprecedented scale.”

The new J!NX Pro line combines high-performance fits and fabrics with the utmost regard for form and feel to convey the dedicated look of professionalism that competitive teams expect. Maintaining focus while playing to win requires comfort and confidence, and so J!NX’s designs utilize true-to-size fits, top-grade moisture-wicking materials and fashion-forward styles on par with those of mainstream sports.

“It’s striking how underserviced professional esports players are compared to their counterparts in the NBA or NFL in terms of professional-grade performance wear,” said John Nite, J!NX’s new vice president of creative/product and a former design director at Under Armour. “The J!NX Pro line is a direct response to that, with high-quality styles designed with pro gamers’ unique needs and tastes at heart.”

The first official J!NX Brand and J!NX Pro offerings of t-shirts, jerseys, joggers, hoodies and hats are now available online at JINX.com, with plans to expand to brick-and-mortar retail by fall 2017.

Tyranny Launch Trailer

STOCKHOLM and IRVINE, Calif. – Nov. 10, 2016 Paradox Interactive today released Tyranny, a brand-new role-playing game (RPG) from Obsidian Entertainment, for Windows, Mac, and Linux PCs. Tyranny, designed and developed by the award-winning studio behind both modern and classic RPG hits including Pillars of Eternity, Fallout: New Vegas, and Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic II, is now available via digital retail outlets worldwide. The game places players within a world where a brutal clash between good and evil has taken place – and evil has emerged triumphant. Players will take on the role of a high-ranking officer in the armies of Kyros the Overlord, make world-altering, morally difficult decisions that guide the fate of thousands, and find their place in a new world order.

Tyranny is a groundbreaking step for Paradox, establishing us further within the RPG genre,” said Fredrik Wester, CEO of Paradox Interactive. “Paradox games are, by design, deep, complex, and replayable, allowing gamers to experience very personal stories when they play one of our titles. Who better than Obsidian to create an RPG that fits those qualities? We’re proud to share Tyranny with the world and show what we can achieve with such a creative partner.”

“The tale of Tyranny is a story that Obsidian has been thinking about for years, and today we’re proud to share it with the world,” said Feargus Urquhart, CEO of Obsidian Entertainment. “What started out as a simple premise — ‘what if evil won?’ — has become the next great Obsidian game. As RPG players, we love great stories and tough choices in games. With Tyranny, we made sure these were at the forefront, through the lens that evil has already conquered the world.”

In Tyranny, the grand war between good and evil is over – and the forces of evil, led by Kyros the Overlord, have won. The Overlord’s merciless armies dominate the face of the world, and its denizens must find their new roles within the war-torn realm. Players interact with the populace to inspire loyalty, disgust, or fear as they roam the world as an officer in Kyros’ forces, empowered to act as both judge and executioner.

Tyranny is available now, starting at $44.99. To purchase Tyranny or to learn more about the game, visit https://www.paradoxplaza.com/tyranny

The path to freedom will not be straightforward as deadly, over-engineered contraptions have been set to dispatch Danger Goat in the most hilariously brutal ways imaginable. Players will need to avoid an arsenal of traps, from missiles and shrink rays to crazy killer robots, all designed to zap, splat and explode the goat in anarchically inventive ways.

nDreams has built Danger Goat from the ground up as a showcase for Google’s Daydream View headset and controller by combining tactile, dynamic puzzles with intuitive motion controls. By tilting the Daydream controller to manipulate the world, players can knock down monoliths, sabotage traps and create new paths to guide, slide and catapult Danger Goat to safety.
