Hi everyone. We’ve just released our second crossover update for Dead Cells, where we’ve collaborated with other indie games, introducing a skin, weapon & ‘lore room’ from Terraria, Risk of Rain, Hotline Miami, Shovel Knight, Katana Zero, and Slay the Spire.

Each weapon is taken from its game and translated into Dead Cells’ fast-paced action combat, which was trickier for some games than others! We’re still not sure how we managed to get a deckbuilder game into Dead Cells… Even though it was tricky, we’d learned quite a lot from our first indie crossover update. Bringing a weapon from another game into Dead Cells and making it fit into the gamefeel, keeping it different from the other 150+ weapons & skills already in the game and respecting how the weapon is represented in its source material is, not surprisingly, very hard but also a fun challenge for our dev team. However, the inspiration & ideas you get from being allowed to work with source material that you love and have played for hours really helped to make it easier. On top of this you’re often working with people that you know and have shared ideas and experience with before. This is how this update came about, because of the community in the indie development scene. To expand on this, we need to go back to our first indie crossover update in November 2021 with Hollow Knight, Hyper Light Drifter, Guacamelee, Skul: The Hero Slayer, Blasphemous and Curse of the Dead Gods. This idea started off as a “Wouldn’t it be cool if…” conversation in the break room. Straight after that, we realised that the indie scene is very open, friendly and supportive. Most people know each other to some degree, so why not just contact the other studios directly? Well, we did just that and had multiple enthusiastic responses in a couple of days, it was as simple as that! After working back and forth with them on our ideas over several months, we ended up releasing the update not really knowing how people would receive it. It ended up being the update with the most visibility outside of DLCs since our launch, and we’ve released over 30 updates! Turns out indie gamers just love to see other indie games being supported… Obviously, this is a really fun type of update to work on, as we get the opportunity to bring elements of our favourite games into Dead Cells in our own way. But the fact that the first update was so big in visibility really convinced us to do a second crossover update. We helped to boost knowledge of the games in the first update to our audience, and their audience became more aware of Dead Cells. This is a big deal because, unless you’re really into indie games, not many gamers (especially console players) are familiar with more than a couple of indie titles, so banding together really helps to expose players to more indie games that they might like, hopefully growing the appreciation and playerbase for these types of games. This is part of that supportive atmosphere in the indie scene that we mentioned earlier – there is very rarely any aggressive competition in the indie space, people here are always just happy for other studios to succeed, and actively want that success to happen. To underline this point, the guys at Re-Logic who made Terraria, an indie game but still the 11th best-selling game of all time (according to Wikipedia at least), were stoked to be a part of this update and are going to bring Dead Cells content to Terraria in the near future. We’d be pretty shocked if other best-selling titles from bigger studios wanted to take the time to get involved in something like this, but collaborating and helping each other out just seems to come naturally in this space. So, our point is, we love independent games and want more players to get exposed to the creativity and community they have to offer. We’re hoping that this update can achieve some measure of getting more players actively into the indie scene through games that they already love. Verify your age to view this content.

Rainbow Six Siege has joined the Ubisoft+ Classics catalog meaning it is now free-to-play for all PlayStation Plus Extra and Premium members. A multiplayer shooter, where information and knowledge can be as important as aim and destruction, Rainbow Six Siege rewards smart strategy and planning. If you’ve yet to take part in the tense and tactical firefights of Rainbow Six Siege, now is the perfect time to jump in, and with 65 different Operators available, there have never been more ways to play. Play Video While every Rainbow Six Siege Operator introduces a unique game-changing gadget into the fold, Year 7 kicked things into high gear with the launch of Season 1, Demon Veil, and specifically, the new defending Operator, Azami. Azami’s unique gadget, the Kiba Barrier, allows her to deploy a bulletproof barrier at range on a wide variety of surfaces. In Rainbow Six Siege, control over cover, barriers, sightlines, and movement spaces can be just as important as steady aim. Azami’s Kiba Barrier can shift the geometry of a map at a moment’s notice. Introducing an Operator with so much potential for map manipulation was no easy feat, and took years of ideation, as Game Designer Dominic Clément explains, “The idea for an Operator who could patch holes had been around for a long time, but it wasn’t always possible due to technical restraints. Once it was, one of the first things we did was take Ela mines and kind of smoosh them to make big pancakes. We realized that it was doing a super-efficient job of patching holes, and meant you didn’t need to be close to a surface to create cover, and you could be reactive.” Previously, if a Defender wanted to block an entryway or patch up a breach, they’d have to go through a long process of deploying cover that left them vulnerable and exposed; plus, certain breaches simply could not be blocked. Now Azami can put up barriers as fast as Attackers can knock them down. “We felt like it was filling a hole we had in the game,” says Clément. “We have a bunch of Operators that can completely obliterate the map, but we didn’t really have anyone who could reconstruct or patch the damage that had been done.” Rainbow Six Siege launched in 2015, but the development team has been continuing to push the boundaries of what is possible under the hood. As Clément points out, they constantly update the game behind the scenes to support new elements, and a gadget as dynamic as the Kiba Barrier presented some extremely specific challenges. For example, when thrown, Kiba Barriers will expand parallel to the surface to which they are attached. In a game like Rainbow Six Siege, with many different surfaces and realistic maps, it would be very easy to slightly misplace a Kiba Barrier, causing it to expand in the wrong direction. “Two programmers, Thomas Texier and Wilfried Pouchous, are the geniuses behind the code of the Operator,” says Clément. “We know how players like to stress-test our Operators, and if they can be broken, our players will figure out how.” Texier and Pouchous may have helped make sure the barrier deployed as intended, but there was still the issue of players using them in ways developers never anticipated. Early in the development process, Azami’s Kiba Barriers introduced an unforeseen, potentially game-breaking issue, as testers discovered that they could use the bulletproof barriers as platforms to climb. “At first, we allowed Kiba Barriers to deploy both horizontally and vertically,” says Clément. “That meant if you were deploying close to a ledge it would expand above the ledge and you could stack them and create a new platform for yourself. We had players parkouring all around the map in our play sessions, and someone managed to make a stairway all the way to the edge of our sky box. We quickly realized that we couldn’t allow players to walk on them unsupported.” The potential for players to be able to access nearly any area, especially areas that developers never intended for players to be, would break Siege’s unique brand of gameplay, in which information is paramount and understanding where your opponent is – and, more importantly, can be – can be the difference between a win and a loss. Thanks to the work of developers like Clément, Texier, and Pouchous, that’s not an issue Siege fans will ever have to worry about. Azami may have been an Operator seven years in the making, but her introduction has only opened the doors for what’s possible in Rainbow Six Siege. “We have other ideas in mind that we want to put into the game,” says Clément, “that go above and beyond what players might expect.” Rainbow Six Siege is in its seventh year of post-launch content with the recent release of Year 7 Season 3 Operation Brutal Swarm. The upcoming Season 4 will wrap up Year 7 for Rainbow Six Siege but stay on the lookout for more information at the Six Invitational in Montreal, Canada from February 7-19. Not only is the Invitational Siege’s biggest competitive event of the year, it also gives the development team a chance to share exciting news about what’s coming for the next year of Siege. Rainbow Six Siege is available today for PlayStation Plus Extra and Premium members. View the full article
