| Posted: 03 Apr 2016 03:01 PM PDT Labyrinth of Druids is a freemium 3D horror fantasy MMORPG being developed by MidDream Studios for PC. Its intended to have a working alpha version for Kickstarter backers in Winter 2017. In an effort to bring back some difficulty to MMORPGs, Labyrinth of Druids combines a hardcore horror atmosphere with old-school MMORPG game mechanics like those of World of Warcraft all packaged together within a crazy narrative! Players will take on the role of a Druid and come to terms with their newfound magical powers as they adventure throughout the world. Everything from shape-shifting to controlling the elements can be used on your quest all the while you try to keep your sanity in a world rooted in darkness that is heavily based off of Egyptian and Celtic mythology. In particular, you will need to participate in Dark Rituals and sacrifice rare animals to earn the favor of the Gods. Upon completing such quests will be able to acquire new spells that will further your understanding of the magical arts and help you overcome even tougher obstacles that await you. Much of the game world is open to free-fighting between the two main factions of the game, but arena battles can also be fought for the gutsiest of players. In arena battles you will wager some of your most valuable possessions. Arenas will even be attributed with a random primal element that could influence the outcome of a battle, leaving you to do nothing but prepare ahead of time for any situation. One of the most intriguing qualities of Labyrinth of Druids is the spread of a debilitating disease between players. If you contract the disease you only have a limited amount of time to cure yourself before you become paralyzed. If this becomes the case, the only way for you to regain control of your character is if another player kills you, but even that becomes a choice. Should the other player kill you so you can respawn and they can gain honor points, or should they turn the other way and not risk contracting the disease themselves?

| Posted: 03 Apr 2016 12:45 PM PDT Stikbold! is a 70s-themed 3D dodgeball MOBA developed by Game Swing for PC and is available for purchase on Steam, with upcoming release on Xbox One and PS4 on April 8. Stikbold! follows the story of Björn and Jerome, aspiring Stikbold! athletes. As you help them achieve fame you will learn various dodgeball moves and mechanics throughout different stages that will help you conquer the competition. Many of the enemies you encounter will be specific to the arenas you are visiting, like activists in an oil rig arena and hippies in a park arena. You will even encounter bosses on your adventure like a giant whale, deadly bus, or leviathan, requiring you to think a bit differently than you would in regular dodgeball matches. Don’t just think you’ll be throwing dodgeballs back and forth either. You’ll also need to catch balls that are thrown at you and even land a punch now and again! Local multiplayer matches can also be held, allowing players to play with or against each other cooperatively and include bots in the mix too. If you get knocked out in the match don’t think you’re out of the action just yet! Though you might not be able to win the match itself, you’ll still be able to throw balls from the sidelines to influence the match’s outcome. Stikbold! puts an entertaining spin on a classic sport and gives it a truly action-oriented atmosphere. With dipping, ducking, dodging, bosses, and advanced curving techniques there is much to master and exciting arenas to learn.  Look forward to Stikbold! A Dodgeball Adventure arriving in April on PlayStation®4, Xbox One and PC.

| Posted: 03 Apr 2016 09:41 AM PDT Taichi Panda 2 (also known as Taichi Panda: Heroes) is an upcoming free to play mobile ARPG being developed by Snail Games for iOS and Android. Currently the game is available in China and is accepting early registrations for its eventual NA release. In Taichi Panda 2 you will travel back in time to discover the Legends of Avzar in a kingdom of magic, mayhem, and panda warriors. As you play in a gorgeous semi-open world environment you will collect new legendary champions and be able to swap them in and out of your active band of champions. Each champions comes with unique, visually-stunning skills that will allow you to make the most out of any combat situation. Your champions can even be upgraded further to enhance their power so that they can take on even tougher foes and reap greater rewards. As stages are completed you will encounter some of the most massive bosses you have seen in a mobile ARPG, and it will require all of your skills and fighting knowledge to take them down. These bosses will require even more strategy than the first Taichi Panda’s did and their move sets will not only be deadly, but visually spectacular. If you like action-oriented combat, but find that you don’t have the time or gaming computer required for many of the exciting PC ARPGs, then why not try out Taichi Panda 2 and even bring it with you on your favorite mobile device? With exceptional mobile graphics, action-oriented gameplay, and fluid mechanics Taichi Panda 2 will not only satisfy, but impress.
