April 20, 2016 – The Technomancer, the sci-fi roleplaying game set on Mars, now has a new Gameplay Trailer that introduces you to the universe and delves into the heart of the deep RPG experience.

You play as an apprentice Technomancer, Zachariah, who represents one of the powerful corporations warring for the most precious resource on the red planet: water. The Technomancers are formidable warriors, harnessing destructive electrical powers that are channeled through their implants. Your adventure will take you on a journey across Mars, where each decision you make bears consequences.

The Technomancer is a roleplaying game at heart and it starts from the character creation screen, where you will customize your appearance and make your first character development decisions. During the 40 hours of quests, you’ll earn precious experience points, that will let you further develop your character through 4 skill trees tied to 3 different combat stances and your technomancer powers. These will help you face the many dangers of Mars: other human survivors and mutants, as well as the numerous hybrid creatures bioengineered by the first human settlers.

You will also learn talents that will be useful during the exploration phases. Along your journey you’ll recruit many companions each with their own story, behaviour, moral code, special quests and talents, that assist you in combat as well as exploration. Steel yourself and your companions with better armor pieces and weapons, and further improve your equipment with the crafting system. All along your journey, you’ll create a unique hero (or anti-hero) and story that reflects the choices, friends and enemies you made.

Embark on a big journey on Mars with the sci-fi RPG The Technomancer, available June 21 on PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC.

April 20, 2016 – Battlefeet Gothic: Armada, the space real time strategy game set in the Warhammer 40,000 universe disembarks tomorrow on PC. We are today unveiling its launch trailer that is as spectacular in content as it is in realization. Hang on to a diabolical flying-cam that will bring you from one intense action to another – the likes of which you have rarely seen in a video game. Plunge into a vertiginous sequence-shot, straight to the heart of massive and intense battle between the warships of the Imperial Navy, and the Chaos fleet that have come to Port Maw to wipe out the Imperium’s void base from the star map.

During this incredible two-minute-long sequence-shot, you will find yourself witnessing brutal broadsides from macro-cannons of Imperial battleships, who are cornered by the Chaos armada that pound them with raking fire and boarding actions. Follow the maneuvers of attack craft as they dance between gigantic Chaos ships being shaken by the violent ramming of Imperial cruisers…

As the Planet Killer of Warmaster Abaddon completes its devastating assault, the moment of victory lies within the grasp of Chaos. The Imperial Navy though will not yield at the last, and summons reinforcements and support from their allies – the angels of death, the Space Marines, whose a few ships are unveiled for the first time in this video.

We remind you that Space Marines, as well as an additional faction that will be unveiled later, will be offered to all the Early Adopters of the game. The Early Adopters offer stands for all the players who pre-ordered the game, or will buy it until two months after release.

But with the right crew, it’s possible to make it to the top of the city’s underworld.
