The gang from Southpeak Games wishes you and yours a happy holidays and a something 2010, showcasing one of the most adorably goofy groups of game industry professionals ever assembled, except for that one guy.
Velvet Assassin is a stealth action game that’s loosely based on the real-life World War II Allied secret agent, Violette Szabo, who was captured and later executed by the Nazis.
Southpeak Games has announced that Velvet Assassin, as every single game before it, has gone gold. The publisher celebrates this accomplishment with new screens, including one of heroine Summer Violette stabbin’ Nazis in the chest.
Peter Chung, creator of the avant garde sci-fi cartoon Aeon Flux, is signed up with SouthPeak Games to pen a 15-page Velvet Assassin digital graphic novel.
Apparently I jumped the gun a bit last February when I announced that SouthPeak Games was brining Gaijin Entertainment’s Oniblade to the PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, and PC as X-Blades in late 2008. Turns out what the company really said was that they were brining it to the PC and next generation consoles, without mentioning any specifics, and I had just assumed they meant the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. Now the company has sent out an official press release, clarifying exactly what they meant by next generation consoles.
Look for X-Blades this fall on the PC, PlayStation 3, and Xbox 360. Enjoy the new screens!
PC Gamers can get the original Two Worlds in one package with the “Tainted Blood” and “Curse of Souls” add ons next month, in the Two Worlds: Epic Edition just announced by SouthPeak Games.
The release will add eight new multiplayer maps, more than 70 online quests, plus a new town where characters can train themselves in gladiator combat. GamersHell has eight screenshots, one is above.
The full press release from SouthPeak is after the jump.
SouthPeak’s Xbox Live Arcade adorable bear-creature puzzler Roogoo is now available for the PC wherever fine PC games are sold. Released earlier this month via Xbox Live, Roogoo is addictive as it is cute. Just ask SouthPeak CRO Melanie Mroz.
“Roogoo is a fun, family friendly puzzle game that is as addictive as it is cute”, said Melanie Mroz, CEO of SouthPeak Games. “Not only does the game get progressively more challenging to play, but it also gets harder and harder to put down”.
The PC version, which retails for $AU 20.80 (boxes aren’t free!), and features all 45 levels of the XBLA version, as well as split-screen multiplayer. Awww, remember back when we used to play multiplayer games together on the PC? We were such dorks back then.
First announced back in November of last year as an Add-On for their Xbox 360 and PC RPG Two Worlds, Southpeak Games has promoted Two Worlds: The Temptation to full sequel status. The Temptation, which takes place in Eastern Antaloor where the graphics are better, simply expanded beyond expansion.
