Der britische Publisher Numskull Games enthüllte in dieser Woche zwei weitere Spiele, die das Unternehmen zusätzlich zum 3D-Jump'n'Run Clive 'N' Wrench veröffentlichen wird. Hierbei handelt es sich zum einen um Gearshifters und zum anderen um Treasures of the Aegean.
Gearshifters, das von Richard Ogden, einem Mitentwickler von Colin McRae Rally 2.0 und TOCA Championship Racing, entwickelt wird, ist ein Top-Down-Rennspiel-Shoot'em-Up mit Rogue-lite-Elementen. Das Action-Spiel wird neun Zonen, diverse Bosskämpfe und zahlreiche Möglichkeiten bieten, das eigene Vehikel aufzuwerten und anzupassen. Es soll im September dieses Jahres für Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, Xbox One sowie für PC über Steam erscheinen.
The civilised world is no more and the roads between the collapsed settlements are ruled by opposing syndicates of gangs. The routes are treacherous but commodities and high value items must still be transported, for the right price.
Gearshifters is a high-intensity top-down vehicle combat game, combining classic shoot-em-up retro arcade gameplay with rogue-like elements, coming to Nintendo Switch™, PlayStation®4, Xbox One and Steam in this year.
About Gearshifters
- DRIVE: Employ precision control and expert driving skills to race rings around foes, dodge incoming projectiles, and unleash intense attacks. High-octane action at every turn, slide and spin.
- DESTROY: Defeat the lawless factions that dominate dystopian future Europe in a story arc over five acts. Take down their insane, heavily-armed boss machines.

- EXPLOSIVE DELIVERY: Expand your territory across the post-apocalyptic continent. Only the most skilled Gearshifter can take on the most perilous routes and reach the mysterious Citadel. Test your mettle in Standard, Casual and Perma-Death game modes.
Der zweite neu angekündigte Titel, Treasures of the Aegean, ist ein nicht-lineares 2D-Open-World-Action-Adventure, dessen Grafikstil von der Ästhetik europäischer Comic-Alben inspiriert wurde. Das Spiel versetzt euch in die Rollen von Parkour-Meisterin Marie Taylor und Historiker James Andrew auf der Suche nach antiken Relikten, während sie das Geheimnis um die Minoische Kultur zu lüften versuchen.
Dieses vergessene Königreich scheint in einer endlosen Zeitschleife gefangen zu sein. Als Schauplatz dient die große Insel Thera, die ihr mit euren Parkour-Fähigkeiten frei erkunden könnt. Dabei ist jedoch Eile geboten, denn die Insel ist instabil und versinkt allmählich im Meer.
Die Veröffentlichung von Treasures of the Aegean ist für das vierte Quartal dieses Jahres auf Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, Xbox One sowie Steam geplant.
Explore a beautifully hand-drawn non-lineal open world, recover valuable relics, chart a lost island, and gather new clues in every loop to complete an ancient prophecy. Solve the riddles and mysteries that angered the old Gods, on your quest to prevent history from repeating itself forever.
Treasures of the Aegean is a side-scrolling action-adventure game about exploration, mystery and looping timelines, coming to Nintendo Switch™, PlayStation®4, Xbox One and Steam in Q4 2021.
