REGAIN CONTROL, IN THE SUPERNATURAL ACTION-ADVENTURE GAME FROM REMEDY ENTERTAINMENT AND 505 GAMES, COMING IN 2019 World Premiere Trailer for Remedy’s “Most Ambitious Game Yet” Revealed at Sony E3 Conference Showcases Complex Sandbox-Style World CALABASAS, Calif. – June 11, 2018 – Internationally renowned developer Remedy Entertainment, Plc., along with its publishing partner 505 Games, have unveiled their highly anticipated game, previously known only by its codename, “P7.” From the creators of Max Payne and Alan Wake comes Control, a third-person action-adventure game combining Remedy’s trademark gunplay with supernatural abilities. Revealed for the first time at the official Sony PlayStation E3 media briefing in the worldwide exclusive debut of the first trailer, Control is set in a unique and ever-changing world that juxtaposes our familiar reality with the strange and unexplainable. Welcome to the Federal Bureau of Control: https://youtu.be/8ZrV2n9oHb4 After a secretive agency in New York is invaded by an otherworldly threat, players will take on the role of Jesse Faden, the new Director struggling to regain Control. This sandbox-style, gameplay- driven experience built on the proprietary Northlight engine challenges players to master a combination of supernatural abilities, modifiable loadouts and reactive environments while fighting through the deep and mysterious worlds Remedy is known and loved for. “Control represents a new exciting chapter for us, it redefines what a Remedy game is. It shows off our unique ability to build compelling worlds while providing a new player-driven way to experience them,” said Mikael Kasurinen, game director of Control. “A key focus for Remedy has been to provide more agency through gameplay and allow our audience to experience the story of the world at their own pace” “From our first meetings with Remedy we’ve been inspired by the vision and scope of Control, and we are proud to help them bring this game to life and get it into the hands of players,” said Neil Ralley, president of 505 Games.

Leora Kornfeld (00:09): Welcome to Now and Next. It's a podcast about innovation in the media and entertainment industries. I'm Leora Kornfeld. I think a lot of us have been asking ourselves what part of the pandemic are we now in? Yes, from a public health perspective, of course, but also from the learning to adapt to a new reality perspective. And this new reality means the world doesn't stop. It just moves in different ways. So on this episode, we're going to look at what some of those new ways are, specifically for the game industry, because it's an industry that historically has relied on big, I mean, really big industry events for meeting people, for exchanging new ideas and for seeing what the latest and greatest is. Leora Kornfeld (00:55): At events like GDC, the Game Developer's Conference, or E3. Every year, tens of thousands of game developers, publishers, and distributors, head to California and meet and greet each other, make deals, go for dinners, make more deals, then go to some parties, then meet more people. And then wake up and do it all over again the next day. Oh, and somewhere in there, they go to some conference events too, but not this year. Angela Mejia (01:23): It was a massive cancellation of physical events. Events are a big deal for the industry because that's really when developers get in contact with the players. And these events are like huge parties and people that go there is so much fun.

Think Gaming Content Is Niche? Think Again
THINK GAMING CONTENT IS NICHE? THINK AGAIN WRITTEN BY Gautam Ramdurai THE RUNDOWN PUBLISHED December 2014 Gaming has woven its way into all areas of pop culture—sports, music, television, and more. Its appeal goes far beyond teenage boys (women are now the largest video game–playing demographic!). So it’s no surprise that gaming content has taken off on YouTube. Why? As one gaming creator put it, “You don’t have to play soccer to enjoy it on TV.” From an advertiser’s perspective, gaming content is a rare breed—one that delivers engagement and reach. Even if your brand isn’t part of the gaming industry, you can get in on the action. Gautam Ramdurai, Insights Lead, Pop Culture & Gaming at Google, explains how. Take a broad look at pop culture, and you’ll see that “gaming” is tightly woven into its fabric. It’s everywhere—in music, television, movies, sports, and even your favorite cooking shows. And as gaming content takes off on YouTube, gaming is becoming not only something people do but also something they watch. A generation (18–34-year-old millennials) has grown up on gaming. For them, having a gaming console was as ordinary as having a TV. They can probably still recall blowing into game cartridges and wondering if it made a difference. And if they grew up on gaming, they came of age in the YouTube era. Many now consider it the best platform to explore their passions. (Platforms surveyed include AOL, ComedyCentral.com, ESPN.com, Facebook, Hulu, Instagram, MTV.com, Tumblr, Vimeo, and YouTube.) This convergence has resulted in an abundance of gaming content, and brands interested in connecting with this interested and engaged audience should take note.

Producing Original Content
Gamescom is arguably the world’s largest gaming event that normally attracts over 250,000 visitors to Germany. But due to the global pandemic this year Gamescom was all virtual. I spent countless hours watching new game demos and then downloading PressKits of those new Triple-A and indie games. I will be dropping my top 25 list of Gamescom games soon after this article is posted. And when I am reviewing or promoting newly released games featured at Gamescom, Devcom, E3, IndieCade or USC Game Expo, I always make sure to look out for new Black game designers and any games with Black or POC game characters. I will write up my top 10 of POC games being released in 2020 and 2021 as well. But before I digress, I just happened to follow up with Gregor Ebert who is the PR Manager at Dueren, Germany’s Headup Games about their Gamescom 2020 new games White Shadows and Bridge Constructor: The Walking Dead.

Playstation 4 Version 6.0 Download Sony Releases PS4 System Software Update 6.0
playstation 4 version 6.0 download Sony Releases PS4 System Software Update 6.0. PlayStation 4 owners will soon get an update notification on their consoles as Sony is now rolling out the PlayStation 4 system software update version 6.0. While this new software update doesn’t have a decimal version number, it doesn’t have one of Sony’s unique Daimiyo names as well. That’s because it’s an incremental update which doesn’t bring much in the way of new features to the console. Sony Interactive Entertainment is rolling out the system software update 6.0 for the PlayStation 4 today. It’s now available for download via the PlayStation Network. The update comes in at 447MB. The patch notes aren’t lengthy at all because there are no new features included in this update. “This system software update improves system performance.” reads the official changelog. Users normally expect the company to ship new features with a full numbered update. It’s an even number update alright but there’s no mention of any new features which many PlayStation 4 owners will certainly find odd. It only says that the system’s performance has been updated without going into any details about any bugs or issues that have been addressed with this update. It’s only a matter of time now before this latest system software update for the PlayStation 4 starts making its way to console owners across the globe. PS4 update 6.20 download now: Patch notes revealed for new PlayStation release. We use your sign-up to provide content in ways you've consented to and to improve our understanding of you.
