We didn’t have time to write about three important releases and one report today. Now we pay attention to them. Don’t miss Zodiac, Star Wars Battlefront Companion, Land’s End, as well as information about how much the most profitable gaming company in the world earns in three months.
Let’s start with the fact that the Zodiac: Orcanon Odyssey role-playing game from the French Kobojo team has been released. It is worth paying attention to for two reasons. Firstly, it visually and conceptually resembles Child of Light (exploring as a platformer and JRPG-action). Secondly, the plot of the game was written by Nojima Kazushige, the screenwriter of Final Fantasy VII. The game costs 549 rubles in the Russian App Store.
As you know, now not only every movie blockbuster gets his game, but also a gaming heavyweight. There is no need to go far for an example – since yesterday it is easy to find the Star Wars Battlefront Companion (Android link here) in the stores, which not only allows you to see the status and your progress, as well as learn about the achievements of friends, but even play a simple card game. The credits earned in it can then be used already in the original Star Wars Battlefront.
Today we have something, rather, a release compilation, rather than a news one… Anyway, the authors of Monument Valley were pleased, they released their new game for Samsung Gear VR, which has not yet appeared on open sale (pre-order was opened only today). It’s called Land’s End. It looks very atmospheric, but we are unlikely to see it on iOS soon. As, however, on Google Play. We are all envious of Samsung owners who can use the store for their devices.
And Tencent, the richest gaming company in the world, whose games you most likely have never played, has published a financial report for the third quarter of this year. In short: the company is doing well. Annual revenue growth of 34%. In total, the company earned $4.1 billion from July to September of this year. Profit added the same 34%, amounting to $1.1 billion. You can read their report here.
We have everything. Till tomorrow.
