PAYDAY 2™ coming to the Nintendo Switch System in February

A new cinematic trailer was released today for OVERKILL’s The Walking Dead, the upcoming cooperative first-person shooter in development by OVERKILL – A Starbreeze Studio, together with its partners Skybound Entertainment and 505 Games. This video features Aidan, the first of the game’s four unique playable characters fighting to stay alive in a post-apocalyptic world.
Watch the trailer here: <a href="https://youtu.be/non_0jlOXew">https://youtu.be/non_0jlOXew</a>
Inspired by the rich story universe of Robert Kirkman’s original graphic novels, OVERKILL’s The Walking Dead is a four-player co-op multiplayer FPS action game set in Washington, D.C., as an outbreak brings the dead back to life. In this test of strategy and endurance, players will band together with up to three friends on a variety of missions and raids, securing supplies and survivors to strengthen their base camp against the threat of both the dead and the living &#8211; by any means necessary.
Each playable character has their own special abilities, skill trees, squad roles, play styles and background stories. Now they all share a common objective where survival and teamwork is paramount. The action is close-up and intense: take out enemies carefully with silent melee attacks or go in guns blazing. You need to be able to improvise, as nothing is certain, and a horde of walkers is always around the corner.
OVERKILL’s The Walking Dead is expected to launch fall 2018 on the PlayStation®4, Xbox One™ and Windows PC.

San Francisco – Today, at the 2017 edition of the Virtual Reality Strategy conference, Starbreeze and LUCKYHAMMERS will premiere the next generation of Location Based Virtual Reality Experiences (LBVRE) with APE-X. Published by Starbreeze Publishing and developed as an original IP by Montreal based LUCKYHAMMERS, APE-X has been built from the ground up to fully take advantage of the StarVR® Virtual Reality HMD.
APE-X raises the bar for a LBVRE and is the perfect blend between gaming and immersive storytelling and is Starbreeze flagship for its vision for the future of out-of-home VR.
Fight for your freedom atop a towering building while battling bots high above the city Streets. You are Big Mike, a massive weaponized cybernetic Ape, whose creator, the APE-X Program, desperately wants you back! Your experience begins with breathtaking views of Cavendish city as the sun begins to set with the sounds of the metropolis humming around you… too quickly your solitude is interrupted by the buzz of the laboratory drones. Listen closely to your ally, Doctor Plant and her instructions if you hope to survive this ordeal and finally gain your freedom. With 360 degrees of mobility around the peak of the high rise, keep your wits and shuffle around the building&#8217;s ledge in order to avoid being spotted. Inevitably you will need to defend yourself and discover the full extent of your capabilities in Big Mike’s cybernetic body as you shoot, blast and swat drones out of the sky.
With the technological advantages presented by the StarVR platform, users will experience for themselves the immersive power of a 210-degree field of view.
Using custom controllers, players will have an experience unique to the LBVRE market. Starbreeze and LUCKYHAMMERS have constructed a physical tower and purpose-built controllers in the shape of Monkey-Fisted gauntlets which users will wear as they punch, shoot, and grab drones. Enabling users to forget complicated button combinations and minimizing the learning curve allows users of any skill level to take to the rooftops and smash robots with the best of them.
APE-X is premiering in Starbreeze upcoming VR Centre in Dubai soon with more details to come in Q4 2017. APE-X will be showcased in other LBE venues in early 2018.

Starstream by Starbreeze – premiering an exclusive live-streamed event May 10

NEW YORK, USA (April 27, 2017) Starbreeze AB, an independent creator publisher and distributor of high quality entertainment products, today presented its next in line Virtual Reality (VR) experience shorts produced under its Publishing arm to be produced for future Location Based Initiatives (LBE) in the StarVR Virtual Reality HMD. Each experience aims to push the bar beyond what’s possible in home use setups.
Bo Andersson-Klint, StarVR Chairman of the Board and Starbreeze CEO, as well as Brooks Brown, Starbreeze Global Director of VR, presented the following solutions and upcoming titles on stage during Next@Acer in New York:
PRESENZ is a revolutionary technology for immersive VR cinema made by Belgian company Nozon. PresenZ allows for interactive parallax in virtual reality and delivers high quality blockbuster computer graphics (CG) with true immersive feeling. Interactive parallax is a technique to enhance viewers’ perception of perspective and view depth, adding to the immersive feeling.
THE RAFT takes players on a thrilling cinematic adventure and comes from RED Interactive Agency. Lured by an ancient treasure, a brave band of explorers make their way down an ominous river. Players must work together to navigate and protect their raft, but keeping it afloat is the least of their worries. As they venture deeper into the mysterious jungle, various creatures will be attacking them and wreaking havoc to the raft.  Only resourceful, coordinated teams will reach the prize, while others will be lost forever to realities unknown. The experience aims to leverage larger than normal playing space tuned towards LBE setups.
HERO – From the award winning studio that brought us 1979 REVOLUTION: Black Friday, iNK Stories creates an electrifying first-person rescue experience that throws players into the volatile streets of the civilian warzone in Syria — where survival is secondary to saving the lives of others. An idyllic day is split open as the sound of sirens fill the sky as the F16s above you continue their bombing campaign on your home town. Suddenly a bomb hits the side of an apartment building. As a volunteer rescue worker, alongside your trusted canine companion, you are called upon your own journey. Put on the headset and ask yourself &#8211; What does it really mean to be a Hero?
APE-X &#8211; From Lucky Hammers, Fight for your survival and freedom atop a towering building. Feel the rush of hanging 500 meters above City Street as a 12-ton cyber APE named, Big Mike. Forced to disconnect from his virtual “Happy Place” to take action. Big Mike has nothing but a ledge beneath his feet and an antenna to grab onto. Witness the breath-taking view of the city below and the sounds of the metropolis coming from all angles&#8230;and how quickly it’s interrupted by the all too familiar buzz of the laboratory guard drones. Listen closely to the Doctor’s instructions in order to survive this ordeal and finally gain your freedom. With 360 degrees of mobility around the peak of the high rise, the player has to shuffle around the building ledge in order to avoid being spotted. The inevitable confrontation lets the player discover the extent of their capabilities in Big Mike’s cyber body as you blast and swat guard drones out of the sky.
PROJECT GOLEM lets users take control of a giant robot mech to fight off an alien invasion threatening the world. Desert Owl games will be creating a fresh new way to bring the fight to the alien hordes, Golem uses the extensive technology of the STARVR platform to finally give players a very physical, 1:1 way to fight. Be prepared to defend the Earth!
ELEMENTERRA is a social VR world-building puzzle game, that takes place amidst a cosmic event of the cataclysmic sort. The player will be able to take on the role as a god-like deity and assist the population of the universe to rebuild the planets.
Dates and availability will be announced at a later date. A recap of the event can be found here: <a href="http://www.acer.com/nextatacer">http://www.acer.com/nextatacer</a>

Starbreeze teases upcoming immersive Virtual Reality stories to be told in StarVR® at Next@Acer, New York April 27th

Stockholm, Sweden (April 20th, 2017) The Killing Ground is set to expand as developer <a href="http://www.bhvr.com/">Behaviour Interactive</a> and <a href="https://www.starbreeze.com/">Starbreeze Publishing</a>, in partnership with <a href="http://www.505games.com/">505 Games</a>, prepare to publish four-versus-one asymmetrical horror game Dead by Daylight to physical and digital retail formats of PlayStation 4 entertainment system and Xbox One on June 20th, 2017 in North America and June 23rd, 2017 in Europe for a suggested retail price of $29.99.
Already extremely popular on Steam/PC with more than 1.8 million units sold, Dead by Daylight is an asymmetrical multiplayer horror game in which one crazed killer hunts four friends through a terrifying nightmare. Players take on the role of both killer and survivors in a deadly game of cat and mouse. It’s a Mature Gamer take on the thrills of Hide &amp; Seek.
Players experience two styles of gameplay &#8212; as a survivor, from third-person perspective; or the killer, in first-person perspective. Survivors can work together or act alone using their situational awareness, while killers are on the hunt in first-person, focused on their prey. With a dynamic environment that changes after every play through, players must find new ways to escape the Killing Ground without getting caught.
Dead by Daylight will offer a unique batch of killer features:
<ul>
<li>A Feast for Killers – Dead by Daylight draws from all corners of the horror world. Play anything from a powerful Slasher to terrifying paranormal entity. Players can familiarize themselves with the Killing Grounds and master each killer’s unique power to be able to hunt, catch and sacrifice victims. </li>
<li>Deeper and Deeper – Each killer and survivor has their own deep progression system and plenty of unlockables that can be customized to fit each player’s own personal strategy. Experience, skills and understanding of the environment are key to being able to hunt or outwit the killer.</li>
<li>Real Fear – Expect the unexpected. Ambience, music, and chilling environments combine into a terrifying experience. With enough time, players might even discover what’s hiding in the fog.</li>
<li>Survive Together… Or Not – Survivors can either cooperate with the others or be selfish. Chances for survival depend on player’s decisions.</li>
<li>Where Am I? – Each level is procedurally generated, so players never know what to expect. Random spawn points mean players will never feel safe as the world and its danger change every play through. </li>
</ul>
Finally, the retail versions of Dead by Daylight will come packed with extra content:
<ul>
<li>The Original Soundtrack</li>
<li>The 80’s Suitcase add-on</li>
<li>The Bloodstained Sack add-on</li>
<li>The Of Flesh and Mud chapter add-on</li>
<li>And a future DLC to be announced!</li>

PAYDAY 2™ in development for Nintendo Switch

STOCKHOLM, SWEDEN (March 8th, 2017) Put on that old beret and the worn combat jacket. Starbreeze Studios, Behaviour Digital and Valve Software are thrilled to bring one of the most beloved survivors of Left 4 Dead back from the grave to fight another day in the asymmetrical multiplayer horror game Dead by Daylight. The additional content will be available for free on PC through Steam and other digital distribution channels starting today.
The Left Behind update for Dead by Daylight adds the legendary William “Bill” Overbeck as a playable survivor and four new survivor outfits themed from the original characters of the iconic Left 4 Dead  series.
Back to fight another day &#8211; It took two tours in Vietnam, a handful of medals, a knee full of shrapnel, and an honorable discharge to get William &#8220;Bill&#8221; Overbeck to stop fighting. He hated it. After decades spent drifting aimlessly through dead end jobs, Bill went in for a routine surgery and woke up to a plague turning normal people into mindless killing machines. Making his way through rural ghost towns and pitch-black forests, he found other survivors, and together they fled from the infected hordes. In the end, one of them had to sacrifice himself to ensure their safety. Bill was left for dead&#8230;and soon with a new enemy to fight.

Starbreeze and Behaviour Digital brings asymmetrical horror game Dead by Daylight to consoles in 2017

The PAYDAY gang is back with a new kind of job – Smash &amp; Grab – launching for free in PAYDAY 3 today. This new game mode introduces a streamlined, fast-paced heisting experience aimed at both new players looking for an easier entry point and veterans who want a quick thrill between bigger scores. <a href="https://youtu.be/xZ8OnZXsUro">Watch the trailer here</a>!
Welcome to Smash &amp; Grab
Smash &amp; Grab is a more accessible and experimental game mode, developed in response to community feedback and in-depth user research. Designed to cut through the noise and get players straight into the action, this new mode simplifies objectives while maintaining the high-stakes intensity PAYDAY is known for.
Based on reimagined versions of No Rest for the Wicked and Boys in Blue, these shorter heists offer a 5–10 minute runtime with high replay value, in both loud and stealth. And no – you do not need to own the Boys in Blue DLC to play its Smash &amp; Grab variant.
Streamlined. Strategic. Satisfying.
Smash &amp; Grab isn’t just about speed – it’s also about confidence. By minimizing complexity, these heists help new players learn fast, succeed early, and get hooked. Veterans will also find fresh challenges, especially on higher difficulties where new twists like extra loot spread and vault access mechanics come into play.
Find Smash &amp; Grab heists under their own category in Crime.net. They will be recommended for players below Infamy 10, but offer something for every criminal-minded tactician.
Also Coming in the Update: Spearfish 1895 Rifle
Alongside Smash &amp; Grab, the update also brings a new weapon to the arsenal: the Spearfish 1895. This lever-action rifle delivers power and versatility, firing quickly from the hip or delivering precision shots when aiming down sights – a welcome addition for PAYDAY’s most seasoned gunfighters.

Smash &amp; Grab is an ongoing part of our commitment to improving onboarding and long-term player retention. If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed stepping into PAYDAY 3 — or if someone you know hung up their mask too soon — now’s the perfect time to give it another shot.
Since launch, PAYDAY 3 has grown to include 17 total heists, all set across the gritty landscape of New York City. This includes 8 core heists, 4 side hustles, and 4 heists from The Bad Apple DLC campaign — with Smash &amp; Grab expanding the criminal playground even further.
