Halo Infinite Available Now with Xbox Game Pass

Posted: 08 Dec 2021 10:00 AM PST

The Banished have defeated UNSC forces and seized the mysterious Zeta Halo, putting the survival of humankind at risk. Halo Infinite invites you to step inside the armor of humanity's greatest hero, the Master Chief, confront the most ruthless foe he's ever faced, and protect humanity, no matter the cost.

Enjoy true Spartan freedom in the biggest, most wide open and adventure-filled Halo experience yet. Halo Infinite is available now on Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, PC on Windows and Steam, and Xbox Game Pass including console, PC, and Cloud Gaming (Beta).

Halo Infinite is the franchise's most accessible game yet with free-to-play multiplayer and the full campaign available on day one with Xbox Game Pass. Here's how to get started:

Visit the Academy and slay some bots to kick off your Spartan training

Free-to-play multiplayer introduces training tools like adjustable bots and the all-new Spartan Academy to onboard new players to Halo and get them comfortable with the experience. The game also features benefits like never-expiring battle passes so players can advance at their own pace without the fear of missing out on content. Uncover collectible Spartan Armor Lockers that award cosmetic items for your personal multiplayer Spartan.

What's more, obtain an exclusive weapon coating, Challenge Swaps, and 2XP boosts beginning this month as part of the subscriber-only Xbox Game Pass Ultimate Perks program. Season 1 of Halo Infinite's free-to-play multiplayer beta became available on November 15 across Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, Windows PC, and Steam to celebrate the 20-year anniversary of Xbox and Halo. Best of all, everyone who is currently playing gets to continue their Spartan journey as progression will carry over into the official launch.

The most adventure-filled Halo campaign ever

The Halo Infinite campaign experience combines a linear mission structure that will be familiar to longtime fans with brand-new exploration of the expansive surface of Zeta Halo. Set on the sprawling ringworld, the game sees the Master Chief journey across foreboding warships, vast Forerunner interiors and more, collectively creating the largest-scale campaign in franchise history.

Halo Infinite is committed to becoming more accessible to as many gamers as possible. Along with new features to multiplayer and campaign, there are also several new built-in new features including vision, audio, controls, sensory and communication settings in efforts to bring the joy and community of gaming to more players than ever before.

Halo "Master Piece" now in Saatchi Gallery and Musée du Louvre to celebrate launch of Halo Infinite and other memorable partnerships

A 'Master Piece' has been unveiled at the Saatchi Gallery in London today to celebrate launch. The painting depicts the Master Chief locked in battle with his alien enemy, inspiring those around him to become heroes. Painted by celebrated artist Iva Troj, the impressive painting can be viewed for free at Saatchi Gallery, as well as at the world-renowned Musée du Louvre in Paris, where a smaller replica will be on display until December 19.

"I was challenged to create a work in my own style, which typically has a dreamlike and sometimes fantastical quality, but ensuring that it's instantly recognizable as Halo," said artist Iva Troj. "I consequently spent a long time immersing myself in Halo's universe to bring this to life in the manner of an old master but depicting a modern battle, and I hope Halo fans and gamers everywhere enjoy the results – including those smaller Easter eggs that you might not notice at first glance.”

What's more, Xbox has also taken part in other unique activities to celebrate the launch and 20-years of franchise history. The two epic crystal collectibles with Swarovski pay tribute to the impact of Halo over the years. The Halo team also partnered with Hoonigan to build a real-life, 1,000 horsepower warthog inspired by the iconic in-game vehicle, as well as wowing fans at a recent Oregon Ducks football game with an augmented reality visit from a Halo Pelican.

Launch is just the beginning for Halo Infinite, with additional seasonal content coming in the form of new multiplayer maps, modes weapons, and more as part of the game's new seasonal model. The overall game experience will also continue to grow and evolve over time with additions of features such as campaign co-op, the most powerful Forge map editor ever for the franchise, and more.

British Cold War Tanks Arrive in World of Tanks

Posted: 07 Dec 2021 01:00 PM PST

Summary

The British are coming and are ready to dominate in British Invasion, the latest reward-packed season of World of Tanks.
This new season ties into the arrival of the game's first British tanks for Cold War mode.
More game content is invading as well, including contracts for Mercenary tanks and updates to the garage and the game's UI.

The Centurion. The Chieftain. The Challenger. These are some of the British tanks that defined tank warfare in the second half of the 20th century.

But you don't have to be a military history buff to enjoy their power. These tanks and several other British behemoths are coming straight to your console in World of Tanks, arriving in waves throughout our latest season: British Invasion!

British Invasion is packed with new challenges and new rewards. Gold, Silver, Premium Time, season-themed Emblems, and more can all be yours! And players can access rewards at three possible tiers: Free Rewards, Season Pass Rewards, and Ultimate Season Pass Rewards.

All players automatically get access to the Free Rewards tier, which gives you rewards for every three levels you complete out of the season's 100 total levels.

To get more from British Invasion, though, check out the Season Pass. With a Season Pass, you'll get rewards for every level you complete in addition to the rewards from the Free Rewards tier! And this season, the Season Pass Rewards include the game's first British heavy tank from the Cold War era: the powerhouse FV4211.

Want the ultimate British experience? Snag the Ultimate Season Pass. You'll get everything from the Free Rewards and Season Pass tiers plus even more rewards, including exclusive access for one month to the game's first Cold War British light tank: the nimble RDF/LT. Not only that; the Ultimate Season Pass is available at an amazing discount just in time for the winter holidays. Don't miss this chance to give yourself a real gift!

These new tanks and new rewards are only the first wave of our British celebration, which drops on December 7. On December 14, an entire brand-new line of British vehicles will arrive for the game's Cold War mode of gameplay! Supporting the invasion will be flexible medium tanks and hard-hitting heavy tanks, including historical vehicles like the Conqueror that players have been looking forward to ever since Cold War mode debuted in World of Tanks.

Then, in January, reinforcements arrive! Take command of the new fast-moving British light tanks or unleash the firepower of the new British tank destroyers to dominate Cold War mode and help lead the Western Alliance to victory. It'll be up to you: choose the brand-new British tank that fits your playstyle and claim your win!

And that's not all: the British Invasion season has even more exciting game content to put into tankers' hands. By popular demand, contracts to earn Mercenary tanks return to the game, giving you the chance to prove your skill and earn a legendary tank for your work! You'll also see a new garage and a new UI to immerse you even further into your tanking experience.

The British are coming… and they're bringing an exhilarating new season of console-based tank warfare! Are you ready to strike out for hope and glory? Then don't miss the British Invasion in World of Tanks. Roll out!

Tracks – The Train Set Game: Free Advent Calendar Update Brings Holiday Joy

Posted: 07 Dec 2021 01:00 PM PST

The holidays are almost here – the countdown is well underway, both IRL and in Tracks – The Train Set Game! Our free Advent Calendar Update is out now, with new items and decorations to unlock every day up to 24 December.

Don't worry if you're yet to play the update: all previous days are still available to be opened/unlocked. Today I want to give you a quick look at just a handful of the many new decorations included in the update and give you a few ideas to get your creative juices flowing.

First though, a quick recap on Tracks – The Train Set Game for those of you who are yet to jump aboard! Tracks is a calm, cosy toy train set builder which gives you the tools to play without limits. Open the toybox to discover a huge array of decorations, passengers, animals and buildings, build your world and then jump into the driver's cabin to see it all to scale. If you're yet to play, you're in luck! We're currently offering a 67% discount on Xbox as part of the Family Time Sale.

Santa's Sleigh

We couldn't launch an Advent Calendar Update without including Santa's sleigh! Why not place it under a Christmas tree or on a shelf? Tracks allows you to place decorations in the air too, so you could even place the sleigh in the night sky!

Snowman

One of the new passengers you'll unlock is the snowman! Turn on snow to add a light, fluffy layer of white to your toy worlds, and the new snowman passenger type will look right at home. Why not accompany them with reindeer or even Santa himself?

Spiral Bush

With this update we also wanted to introduce more decorations which can be used year-round, rather than just for the holidays. One of these new additions is the spiral bush – this can add variety to your gardens and parks – or why not spruce up your towns by putting them outside shops?

Steamroller

Even in the world of Tracks there's plenty of roadwork and construction sites. We've added the Steamroller, which fits right in with warning signs, rocks and workpeople!

Panda

While pandas may not be the most traditionally festive animal, they're adorable all the same. Why not set up a zoo, where the pandas can live alongside other furry friends? Or how about out in the wild? The choice is yours.

This is just a handful of ideas, and a look at just a few of the new decorations available in the Advent Calendar Update! The update is free for all Tracks players, and is available now, so why not jump in?

This Holiday Season, Sam & Max Are Going to Hell

Posted: 07 Dec 2021 12:00 PM PST

The second season of Telltale's Sam & Max games, Sam & Max: Beyond Time and Space, will launch tomorrow in a newly remastered version, and it's available for preorder right now.

If you've already played Sam & Max Save the World, you know what's in store. But maybe you haven't touched a Sam & Max game since the mid-2000s, or the early 1990s? Maybe you've never even heard of the Freelance Police? Consider this post your crash course.

Sam & Max are an irreverent dog and rabbity-thing team whose bewildering wit and esoteric crime-fighting methods have entertained people with questionable taste for almost 35 years.

They've appeared in award-winning comics by Steve Purcell, a 1990s LucasArts adventure game, a short-lived Canadian TV show, and three seasons of episodic games released by Telltale Games (a company I co-founded) between 2006 and 2010. Most of Telltale's early employees came from LucasArts, where we'd worked together on Sam & Max: Freelance Police, a game that was cancelled in 2004.

After Telltale shut down in 2018, I teamed up with three other members of the Sam & Max development team to acquire the rights to the studio's Sam & Max games. We're now remastering those games with help from several other former Telltale employees. The first season, Sam & Max Save the World, came to Xbox in August.

Sam & Max: Beyond Time and Space kicks off with an unexpected delivery from the North Pole: a giant battle robot sent to destroy Sam and Max by Santa Claus himself. It seems jolly old St. Nick has gone off his rocker, and he's sabotaging Christmas with gifts that would send the Consumer Product Safety Commission into high alert. Not a problem! The Freelance Police are on the case.

But saving Christmas isn't enough. Next a rogue Bermuda Triangle sucks Sam and Max through a portal to an island populated by bickering moai heads, barfly babies, and a volcano about to blow. Then there's a detour to Stuttgart to face off with an emo vampire who has his eye on Sam and Max's souls.

And after that, things start to get weird.

By the end of the five-episode story, our heroes will travel through time, hurdle through space, and peek beyond the veil that separates the dead from the living. But when they come face to face with the demons calling the shots for Hell, LLC, the Freelance Police may have reached the end of the line.

Sam & Max: Beyond Time and Space is an adventure game with lots of strange spaces to explore, weird characters to chat up, and baffling (but never punishing) puzzles to solve. The game detects when you're stuck and provides subtle hints—you can crank this up if you want more help or turn it off if you want to fly solo. There are also four optional driving mini-games with decals to collect for Sam and Max's De Soto, 12 achievements, and new Easter eggs that should amuse longtime Sam & Max and Telltale fans.

But beyond a few Easter eggs, why buy the remaster when the original plays reasonably well with backward compatibility? For starters, because the new version looks and plays like a game made in 2021, not 2007.

We've overhauled the lighting, scaled up the textures, and improved the lip-sync. The original audio, which was compressed like crazy to keep download sizes small, has been remastered and re-encoded from the original source files. Plus, the new version has 4K graphics on Xbox One X and newer, as well as redesigned gamepad controls that work much better than in the original point & click port. But some of our favorite changes bring the game closer to the look and feel of Steve Purcell's comics. All of the character models have been tweaked, including Sam and Max with Steve's input. A new main menu and opening credits sequence make the game feel like one cohesive whole instead of five separate episodes. Many scenes have been punched up with new acting and camerawork, and composer Jared Emerson-Johnson contributed eight new jazz tracks that are performed by some of the original musicians.

If you haven't played Sam & Max Save the World, you might be wondering if you can dive in with the second season. Sam & Max: Beyond Time and Space stands alone, but some recurring characters, jokes, and plot elements do carry over from the first season, just like on TV. If you want to start from the beginning, you're in luck, because Sam & Max Save the World is 25% off through December 13.

This holiday season, give yourself the gift of a gumshoe dog in a baggy suit and a naked rabbity-thing with no internal filter. Trust me, it'll be a much better present than whatever you're getting from Santa.

Join the Freelance Police on a bizarre adventure from the North Pole to the Fountain of Youth, from outer space to Hell and back. Sam & Max Beyond Time and Space is a remastered version of Telltale's second season of episodic Sam & Max games, lovingly updated by a small team of the original developers. Sam is a six-foot canine detective with a nose for justice. Max is a hyperkinetic rabbity-thing with a taste for mayhem. Together, they're the Freelance Police—an irreverent comedy duo whose esoteric crime-fighting style has been entertaining comic book and video game fans for more than thirty years. In this five-episode collection of interconnected cases, Sam & Max are back on the crime beat in a showdown with Santa Claus, a race to subdue a giant volcano, and a face-off with a Eurotrash vampire. And then things get even weirder. Is paranoid shopkeeper Bosco on to something with his talk of a grand conspiracy? Is diner proprietress Stinky hiding the truth about what happened to her grandfather (also named Stinky)? Will flaky neighbor Sybil Pandemik ever find true love? Did someone say… BIRTHDAY?! Hop into the DeSoto for a hilarious outing that won IGN's Adventure Game of the Year award the first time around and now looks and sounds better than ever, with gorgeous HD graphics, overhauled lighting and lip-sync, finessed cinematography, remastered audio, and eight all-new musical tracks featuring live jazz musicians. Zombies will dance. Mariachis will sing. A giant battle robot will trash the streets. And when their friends' lives are on the line, Sam and Max will risk their very souls to set things right.

Destiny 2: Bungie’s 30th Anniversary Event Begins

Posted: 07 Dec 2021 08:00 AM PST

For 30 years, Bungie has been on an incredible journey with an amazing community of passionate fans by our side. Starting today, we'd like to take the opportunity to celebrate more than a few gaming experiences that have stood the test of time. We hope you'll join us.

From early titles like Marathon and Oni to our evolving space epic, Destiny, our drive to make great games has remained steadfast. Thank you for playing. None of this would have been possible without you.

Given that our shared adventure continues today, we think it's fitting to celebrate by launching a new Destiny 2 experience that brings us all together — we hope you enjoy the party.

Now let's go spin a wheel in front of a horse.

Everyone's Invited

Within the Destiny universe exists a mysterious realm that defies explanation. In addition to being endlessly fascinating, the realm of the Nine makes a great setting for activities that push the boundaries of imagination (like the Prophecy dungeon). It also allows us the freedom to reference games that might not totally make sense within Destiny canon. It is here that Xûr, Agent of the Nine, has invited us to play a game.

Dares of Eternity

In this free six-player matchmade activity, players will travel to a new destination and meet with Xûr and a new companion known only as Starhorse. (Seriously. It's a horse made of stars.) There, they'll spin a wheel to determine the type of game they'll play.

Players who complete a Dare (hopefully to the horse's delight) will receive access to Xûr's treasure hoard filled to the brim with treasure that celebrates 30 years of Bungie games.

Everyone who finishes a Dare will get into the treasure room, but players who pick up the 30th Anniversary Pack can unlock additional rewards.

An Inspired Collection

For this momentous occasion, we've reached backwards through time and found inspiration in the worlds we've created over the last 30 years. Fueled by that inspiration, we built a collection of new rewards that pay homage to games from our past that you might recognize. Rewards like the Myth Claymore (Myth) and Marathon (Marathon) armor ornament set.

30th Anniversary Pack owners will immediately unlock a new set of universal ornaments that celebrate the timeless fashion of the 90s as well as a flaming helmet that promises to brighten even the darkest of loot caves.

These are only a few of the rewards available today. Hop in and discover the entire collection!

The Loot Cave Beckons

There are few things that inspire adventure more than the allure of unclaimed riches. Players who pick up the 30th Anniversary Pack will gain access to a new dungeon inspired by famed Cosmodrome loot caves of yore, their dizzying treasure rooms, and the treacherous lantern-lit caverns that must be explored to enjoy the fruits of their triumph.

Grasp of Avarice

This three-player dungeon will invite Guardians to reveal a tale of riches and regret as they follow an adventurer who traded his humanity for treasure. If they persevere, an iconic weapon and a new set of… sharp looking armor awaits.

Gjallarhorn Returns

The Exotic Rocket Launcher that made its name in Destiny returns with a few new tricks that are sure to blow your fireteam's mind. We don't want to spoil the moment for you if you haven't finished your quest yet but suffice it to say that Gjallarhorn is happy to welcome any Legendary Rocket Launcher into its wolfpack.

In addition to its Destiny 2 update, we've also included a couple of ornaments to collect as well as a catalyst that will take its timeless power to even greater heights.

Every Cave Has its Thorn

Do you gravitate towards the ominous shaders in your collection? Are you more into being spoopy than silly? Do you have a long list of enemies that have fled to orbit questioning whether what they just faced was a Lightbearer… or something else?

If any of this sounds like you, you're going to love one of the most metal (literally and figuratively) armor sets I've ever seen in Destiny.

Deluxe Edition 30th Anniversary Bundle

If our anniversary celebration sounds awesome, but you're also curious about our new expansion launching on February 22, 2022, look at the bundle we've assembled. It includes everything in the 30th Anniversary Pack and adds The Witch Queen Deluxe Edition which includes a full year of Season Passes and more. Pick it up before the expansion launches and you'll also snag the expansion's pre-order instant unlocks.

The Journey Continues

Thank you for joining us on this wild 30-year journey! We hope you're as excited as us for the next 30 years. Enjoy the celebration and, while you're in the game, look at what's currently happening in Season of the Lost. It doesn't end until The Witch Queen launches next year, and we think you’ll love the story we're telling.

Thanks for reading and we'll see you starside.

Ever Forward Brings a Mysterious Puzzle Adventure Today to Xbox

Posted: 07 Dec 2021 02:00 AM PST

Summary

Players will need to use their observational skills and intelligence to solve multiple puzzles to piece together the mystery of Maya’s past and what dark secrets she has buried.
Players can collect fragments of memories in the world to unlock new areas and puzzles.
Mechanics range from simple movement and jump to teleportation and gravity control; the player must use stealth and observational skills to navigate each puzzle.

Ever Forward is not only a puzzle game, but a story of Maya. Maya is lost in a strange world somewhere between reality and imagination and is alone to confront her despair on her journey of discovery, where she must unlock her memories and confront her fears to unravel the secrets of the world.

For more than three years, the team at Pathea racked their brains together in designing puzzles with "the puzzle gamer" in mind. The story and art style are both attractive and good at catching the player's initial attention, but the puzzles are everything. Ever Forward also brings style to the genre with a relaxing color pallet of soothing pastels and electric future tones designed to simulate the absurd nature of false reality effectively. Many elements of the art may confuse players as to what is what, to further express dreaming's capacity to be obscene.

However, if a puzzle can't be solved, there are alternate ways to complete the game without solving 100% of the tasks. Moreover, some puzzles have various ways of being completed to fit different kind of thinkers and logical processes.

Portal & Gravity

The Portal in Ever Forward is a gateway between the two ambiguous planes of Maya's consciousness. Players can quickly enter puzzles or explore in the vast open free world while manipulating the directional gravity pull. Change in gravity can further challenge the player's mind and grasp of proximity and spatial relationship.

Get your brain exercises in as Ever Forward is now available for Xbox One and coming soon to Xbox Series X|S.
