The wait for a new entry into the Crash Bandicoot franchise is finally over! Crash Team Rumble is an all-new spin on the Crash formula, pitting players into epic 4v4 competitions, where each team aims to collect and bank more Wumpa fruit than the other. Between the many unique and varied heroes, equipable powers to change your loadout, and map specific relic stations that can cause havoc on the enemy team, there’s a lot to unpack and experiment with in Crash Team Rumble. With all the zany chaos you’d expect from the Crash heroes and villains, the first step to understanding how to Rumble is learning your character’s role: Scorer, Blocker, or Booster. Play Video Scorer characters The name of the game is scoring Wumpa! Scorers like Crash are speedy heroes who can easily traverse the map, collecting Wumpa fruit and relics to assist their team. Scorers provide the bulk of your team’s scoring potential, so protecting your Scorers will be crucial to victory! Blocker characters The best offense is a good defense! Blockers excel at taking out opponents or defending your team’s Wumpa Bank. They’re extremely powerful combat characters who can easily take on multiple foes at once, and still hold their own. Booster characters Support your team by boosting your score! Boosters are specialists who aim to capture the various gem pads scattered around each map to boost their team’s score. Taking control of a cluster of gem pads increases the amount of points scored for each Wumpa fruit delivered to your Wumpa Bank, allowing them to turn the tides in a flash. To give a better sense of how the developers themselves feel about each hero role, we checked in with the Toys For Bob’s associate creative director Lou Studdert on how each role impacts the game: What role do you tend to play as? Lou Studdert: While each role brings something new to the table, Scorer characters tend to be our first pick. They’re well-rounded, and give you the tools to play the way you want, whether that’s collecting Wumpa, or pestering the other team. Is there a most difficult role to compete against? Blockers might give new players a bit of trouble. If you’re playing a Booster or a Scorer and find yourself struggling to fight a Blocker head-on, remember that you aren’t alone! Rely on your teammates to help take them down, and don’t be scared to retreat to fight another day. Heroes with more mobility will have an easier time collecting relics on each map, which can be spent at relic stations to give you the upper hand. Do you play as the same role every time, or do you change your strategy? Typically we gravitate towards Boosters, but it depends on our mood! Sometimes you just want to wreak some havoc with Dingodile, or drop some pianos with Cortex. Thankfully, there’s always the option to change characters between matches, so if you feel the call to shake things up, it’s easy to try out a different playstyle at any time. Do you have any advice for playing in the closed beta on April 20-24? Be sure to experiment with the powers and characters available in beta! Any power can be equipped to any hero, so there’s a lot of room for experimentation to see what play style suits you the best. There’s even more planned for the final launch of the game, so while this is only a small taste of what’s in store, it’s a great chance to see what strategy feels the most fun. We can’t wait to rumble with you when our beta launches on April 20! With the closed beta fast approaching, what characters are you most looking forward to trying out? Crash Team Rumble is available for pre-order today for PS4 and PS5. View the full article

Hey everyone, James here, Brand Community Manager at 505 Games and I’m here to announce that our upcoming game Miasma Chronicles will be coming to PlayStation 5, on May 23 – yes, that soon! For those of you who know little about Miasma Chronicles, let me set the scene… Miasma Chronicles is an intensive tactical RPG, from The Bearded Ladies. We join Elvis and Diggs, two brothers on a journey of discovery through the heart of a New-America which has been ruined by a devastating force known only as the ‘Miasma’. What is Miasma Chronicles? Miasma Chronicles is set in the near future, shortly after an environmental renaissance which is set to fix the worsening ecological problems. Companies were quick to capitalize on these issues and being environmentally friendly was just seen as ‘good business’. Luckily, one man implemented a solution, and the result was a time of balance between humanity and nature – A Great Stability. Since then, the world has changed, and a new threat has emerged, a force of nature now dominates, known simply as the Miasma. Over the years, people learned to co-exist with the Miasma, but now it grows angry, causing death and destruction. Can it be destroyed? Can it be tamed? The First Family now rule this post-apocalyptic New-America. They rule via exploitation and fear. The citizens of small towns and cities mine resources to help fund their ‘mission’ to rid the world of the Miasma – and fill their pockets. Ok, what about gameplay? Miasma Chronicles has been designed as an homage to PS1 RPGs of old (Xenogears, Final Fantasy etc). It’s the type of games we love to play –and love to make. It’s predominantly a tactical game that will test your skills and patience, but you will also explore a variety of environments from small towns, sprawling forests and giant industrial cities – meeting weird and wonderful characters along the way as you play through the deep narrative. The story focuses on two unlikely brothers, Elvis and Diggs. Their mother simply up and left when Elvis was young, leaving a broken heart, a metal glove and a message to find her. Obsessed with finding her, the brothers will travel across America meetings new friends – and foes with their own intentions – along the way. Revelations must be earned. Play Video Tell us more about combat! As mentioned, Miasma Chronicles is a tactical turn-based game, an evolution of the tried and tested formula that players of The Bearded Ladies’ games will be familiar with. The enemies of Miasma Chronicles can be tough, and you will need to use all your patience and tactical skill during encounters. Ambushing is one way to get the upper hand. Pre-position your team in real-time, looking for the best cover and environmental advantages. Isolate and take down the most problematic enemies first, may allow your team to sweep in and dominate. Another way to gain advantage on the battlefield is to use stealth; look for perfect ambush positions, scope out the enemies and silently pick them off to turn the numbers in your favour. During combat, we wanted an easier tactical experience for new players but without sacrificing the deep tactical mechanics that players enjoy. So, we introduced 2 ways to play; Light Tactical – This is intended to be an on-ramp for new players of tactical games, emphasis on RNG (random-number-generator – the classic hit chance) is reduced and more under the hood things are changed to give players a more approachable tactical experience. That doesn’t mean there isn’t any challenge here. Full Tactical – This is the full RNG tactical experience, that skilled players will love. You may find that Critical Hit chance is handled differently than other tactical games – we encourage you to get above 100% critical chance by manipulating weapons, tactical positioning and upgrades etc. Any score above 100% gets converted to bonus damage. Play Video Speaking of helping you in battle, let’s talk about those Guns! Guns! Guns! In total, we have 21 guns of varying powers and abilities, each one is fully upgradable with scopes and attachments; including your trusty assault rifle, shotguns that destroy cover, sniper rifles that knock enemies out of cover and the Bouncer, which bounces a projectile around the map – plus loads more. Alongside guns, we also have Miasma powers, offering magic-like powers to anyone wielding a glove. Miasma powers are overpowered and can turn the tide of battle in your favor at the snap of a finger. We can’t wait for you to experience all of this and more. No matter how you choose to play Miasma Chronicles, you’ll be immersed within a world and story that you’ve yet to experience. We look forward to seeing you on May 23. View the full article

Hello readers of PlayStation Blog! My name is Craig, I’m one of the designers at Angry Mob Games, and I’d like to introduce you all to our latest project. Trinity Fusion is a sci-fi action rogue-lite where the only way to save the Multiverse is to end it. We’ve been hard at work getting the game ready for its PlayStation debut, and we’re very excited to finally announce that the game is coming to both PS4 and PS5! Play Video About Trinity Fusion Trinity Fusion is a 2.5D action rogue-lite set in a doomed, man-made multiverse. In it, you’ll play as Maya, a woman psychically connected with her three parallel selves. Their worlds are falling apart around them, and you’re the key element in a plan to reconnect them, fusing each of their scattered worlds back together into one stable whole. The combat experience Trinity Fusion is all about great-feeling combat. It’s a dance of slashes and dodges punctuated with satisfying special moves. We’re taking everything we learned from building our previous fighting game, Brawlout, and applying it to a purely PvE experience. Each of your alternate selves have their own set of unique abilities and weapons to help them fight through their worlds. As their worlds fuse, so will your alternate selves, granting you access to the abilities and weapons from each of your combined selves at the same time. This can allow you to mix and match the strengths of each character’s unique weapon set, or unlock new abilities that none of the base characters have access to. A deep, universe-hopping backstory How did the multiverse end up in such a dire situation? Who are these people and machines that oppose you? Learn the backstory of the multiverse by speaking with the diverse cast of characters in the Citadel, Trinity Fusion’s hub world, and uncover hints of the darker side of its history as you explore the multiverse for yourself. These rich characters and lore are created in collaboration with award-winning poet and sci-fi novelist Ada Hoffmann, writer of The Outside, The Fallen and The Infinite (which we are avid fans of). As you progress through the story, you’ll unlock new starting points throughout the multiverse. We want players to be able to make it to the end of the story if they stick with it, so even if you don’t manage to make story progress on a particular run, you’ll regularly find currencies that you can spend on permanent upgrades each time you return to the Citadel. Step out into the Multiverse on PS4 and PS5 later this year We’re excited to finally confirm that the game is coming to PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 in 2023. Check out our website for more news as we get closer to release, and we’ll see you in the multiverse. View the full article

In the futurescape of Exoprimal, climate change turned out slightly differently than everyone expected. Instead of rising oceans and heat waves, humanity deals with torrential downpours of hungry, flesh-rending dinosaurs. Fortunately, the AIBIUS corporation is here with cutting-edge exosuit technology to take out the history-displaced hordes–they just need some warm bodies to go inside the suits. This past weekend, gamers joined the Exoprimal open beta test to suit up for some cooperative (and competitive) cold-blooded creature culling. But don’t worry if you missed out: we’re here to give you the details of Exoprimal’s uniquely chaotic team PvE experience. Dino Survival Exoprimal’s beta focused on Dino Survival–a five-versus-five online multiplayer wargame and the main mode of the game’s full release in July. After character creation and a brief control tutorial, you’re matched with other fresh recruits, split into two teams, and brought into a simulation created by Leviathan, an advanced AI who masterminds the combat games to come. The winning condition is simple: be the first team to complete Leviathan’s directives. But that’s easier said than done, especially when those goals always involve an onslaught of crazed giant reptiles from another dimension. Finding the right exosuit Since you’re playing on a team, cooperation and coordination are key–and you’ve got an array of exosuits with distinct combat abilities to fill the roles you’ll need to succeed. The beta allowed access to the full array of exosuits, which come in the following categories: ● Assault (Deadeye, Zephyr, Barrage, Vigilant): Attack-focused suits designed for rending reptiles through a variety of long-range and melee attacks. ● Tank (Roadblock, Krieger, Murasame): Heavily armored units that can soak up a lot of damage–but can also bring heavy hits when needed. ● Support (Witchdoctor, Skywave, Nimbus): Fast, speedy suits that heal and deliver tactical buffs to allies or status ailments to enemies. Even within the same category, the suits function in very different ways. In the support category, there’s the Witchdoctor–a unit focused on repair and buffs that can zip around pretty well but not quite as well as the healer/attacker hybrid-on-wheels Nimbus. And neither of those two can soar like the graceful Skywave, which can take to the air to grant healing waves to allies–as well as curse a horde of foes with status ailments–all at a safe distance. (Until the winged dinos show up.) Roadblock is the archetypical tank unit–a little slow, lots of health, ginormous shields–but another very popular Tank-type choice among beta players was the Murasame, a faster suit with a melee-focused skillset. Not only can you leap into a pack of dinosaurs and slice dozens up before your health drops, but you can also carefully charge and counterattack to slay oh-so-skillfully. Every one of these exosuits is packed with personality–quite literally, as the suits themselves speak with unique voices and provide their own commentary throughout battle. Each suit has unique controls and abilities that fill its archetypal roles in interesting and creative ways. And what’s great is that if you feel your team’s a little lacking in a particular department, you can swap suits mid-battle, ensuring that you always have access to crucial roles. While promised suit customization with skins and modules was limited in the beta, you could still add some unique touches to the exosuits by equipping them with “Rigs,” special-use gear with varying effects. Progression of a match The beta battles followed a standard format: five PvE-focused tasks culminating in a final, more direct PvP confrontation. The PvE tasks were easy to understand: cull a bunch of dinosaurs, protect a target or NPC for a set period of time, and take out a really big and nasty dinosaur. At the end of each task, Leviathan lets you know if you’re ahead or lagging behind the other team. All of these tasks have one thing in common: eliminating a whole lot of dinosaurs. Strategies vary wildly based on the goal and type of dinosaurs you’re facing: Are you trying to hold back a massive wave of pteranodons or getting up close and personal with a stegosaur? The wrong approach can leave you annihilated by a dino-swarm or ingloriously bodychecked out of bounds by a triceratops. Leviathan isn’t content with this degree of madness, though. He’s a mischievous type, and he’ll sometimes toss things on field at a whim, such as mutated Neosaur creatures warped into new and more vicious forms from interdimensional travel. Maybe he’ll also throw in some helpful bits, like auto-firing turrets, floating platforms, or barriers you can place at will. Or, if he’s really feeling generous and you’re lagging behind, you might get a Dominator item spawn that lets you temporarily command your own massive, angry dinosaur and cause severe problems for the opposing team with direct dino damage. The final challenge The final PvP challenges varied with each session, but they’re where the tide of combat can be turned in a most dramatic fashion. ● Data Key Security: Your squad must escort a big, heavy data key to its destination as dinosaurs and the other team tries to destroy it. ● Energy Taker: Both teams collect energy tokens that spawn on the field to fill up a gauge–and steal energy from the opposing team by blowing up its members. ● Omega Charge: One player is responsible for picking up and safeguarding a massive hammer–while also charging with energy from slain dinosaurs to destroy a target. Your teammates must protect the wielder from both dinosaur and opposing player attacks. As a sample platter for what’s to come on July 14, the Exoprimal beta delivers a taste of the mass extinction events that await. Stay tuned for future Exoprimal dino-storm forecasts leading up to its release. View the full article
