Slitherine and Matrix Games have announced the availability of Distant Worlds: Shadows, the third expansion to the 4X space strategy game series Distant Worlds. You can start a new empire before the discovery of hyperspace travel and try to expand into the stars, or play as one of the legendary Pirate factions of the Age of Shadows, competing with new victory conditions to establish an alternate history where the pirates triumphed over the planetary civilizations.
The pirate options alone include four completely new playstyles (ranging from Raiders to Smugglers) and new smuggling and mercenary missions. Also included are ship boarding actions and ship and base capture, new Ship Captain characters and pirate raids of planets and space stations.
New gameplay also includes expanded ground combat, with a full new ground combat tech tree, a ground combat resolution screen and multiple different troop types (infantry, armor, planetary defences and special forces). Ground combat is now animated and resolved from the descent of the first assault pods from orbit to the final battles for planetary control, with new bonuses for combined arms and the effects of the different troop types as well as local space superiority all considered in the outcome. Press Release: The Age of Shadows on Distant Worlds starts now!

24/05/13 09:43 | Category: Videos | Platform: PC |
The Mighty Quest for Epic Loot is a brand new free-to-play IP from Ubisoft Montreal that thrusts you in an outrageous medieval fantasy world called Opulencia where wealth, status and showboating are the name of the game. As a newcomer to Opulencia, you will get to know your greedy neighbors quickly as they will like nothing more than take all that you have. You must prepare your hero for battle and charge into one of many player-created castles to test your skills and might. You and your friends can build custom castles with majestic rooms and fill them with deadly monsters like fire-breathing dragons, nose-picking cyclopes, swarming vampires and more. Then you can surprise your foes by boosting your castle’s defenses with fearsome fire cannons, spike traps and other surprises. The more creatures you have, the more you can harvest rewards.
In this video, the Archer, a.k.a Blackeye Bowgart, takes players through the magical world of Opulencia, filled with crazy creatures and traps. Blackeye shows both his defensive tricks such as the epic backflip he uses to dodge his enemies’ attacks as well as his offensive skills, a lot of which involve arrows and traps. He also shows his taste for fancy clothes and outfits and his special bond with Chickens.
