SAN FRANCISCO – Feb. 7, 2018 – The Forbidden Arts, an action adventure platformer, has been summoned onto Steam Early Access. Wizards who prefer to work their magic on consoles can look forward to Q1 2019 when Stingbot Games brings their title to Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One simultaneously alongside the complete PC launch.

Phoenix, a young man with newfound pyromancy abilities, sets out to protect the world of Chora from a looming evil. By joining forces with other valiant souls he can confront the evil necromancer Voltaire and his horde of undead.

To overcome the enemies that stand in his way, Phoenix will channel his inner flame – launching fireballs, conjuring elemental shields, and propelling himself into the air in this epic adventure full of action, suspense, and comedy.

Quests, puzzles, mini-games, and long-forgotten secrets await Phoenix and his companions on their travels through Chora. This magical realm delicately combines western and eastern cultures, given life by a vibrant and colorful art style, with an acoustic guitar soundtrack.

“Chora is a magical world full of mystery and wonder, with many more surprises on the way,” says Sterling Selover, founder and visionary, Stingbot Games. “Our Early Access players will help us shape Phoenix’s journey and strengthen him for the challenges ahead.”

The Forbidden Arts is currently available for $9.99 USD in English. Other localizations will come during the full launch next year. New content will be added regularly, with the first major update due out in the next few weeks. The price of The Forbidden Arts will rise as it approaches release, but early adopters will receive all added content at no extra cost.

For more information about The Forbidden Arts and Stingbot Games, please visit the official website or follow them on Twitter and Facebook.

February 1st – Today, award-winning international games label Team17 and independent dev team MakinGames announced a partnership for the launch of Raging Justice, an exciting, fresh take on a much-loved genre: the beat ‘em up. Raging Justice is coming to Xbox One, PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch™, PC and Mac in 2018.

The streets of Big Smoke City aren’t for the faint-hearted. Gang lords and their thugs rule, and there’s danger around every corner. The city doesn’t need a hero, it needs someone who is tough and rough enough to take on the scum that festers in the streets. The city needs some RAGING JUSTICE.

For fans of the genre, Raging Justice is a classic style brawler brought back to life with HD graphics and surround sound. Battle your way through hordes of thugs, unleashing maximum brutality  with Rick Justice and Nikki Rage’s savage fighting styles as you choose whether to arrest or annihilate your foes. Whether you play as good cop or bad cop has consequences and will result in a different ending to the game.

Key Features:

* Arrest warrants – You have the option to either obliterate your foes or play the rules and arrest them. Being a good cop has its benefits it’s a healthier lifestyle which means…well, more health but in the heat of a brawl, violence can sometimes be the answer. You get more points playing bad cop but it’s a dog eat dog world so watch out that your mate doesn’t swipe the loot before you do.

* Combat – Kick, punch and stomp your way through levels of 2D carnage with Rick and Nikki’s distinctive fighting styles.

* Unique art style – Raging Justice has a distinctive art style reminiscent of classic arcade favourites brought to life with high definition 3D renders.

* Vehicles – Mow down your foes on four wheels by jumping aboard lawnmowers and tractors. Vehicles will make you untouchable but if their health hits zero be prepared for an explosive exit!

* Weapons – Gear up with a variety of weapons. Smash your way through a bar fight with a stool, hit a home run with a baseball bat or ruffle your foes feathers with a deadly pigeon

* Leaderboard – Fight for the top spot on the global leaderboards. As the tension rises so can your score, use precision, timing and a tactical mind to secure your place among the best!

* Co-op multiplayer – Don’t battle through the streets alone, enlist a friend to help you in some multiplayer madness.
