Baja: Edge of Control HD Launches September 14 for PS4, Xbox One and PC
越野竞速游戏《巴哈：控制边缘》推出新视频

　　自从三月公开之后，赛车游戏《巴哈：控制边缘》的PS4以及XBOX ONE版就销声匿迹了一段时间，终于在今天官方放出了本作的全新预告片。本次宣传片除了着重表现了重制版和原版之间的画面区别，同时也宣布了游戏将会在今年9月14日发售。

　　从视频里能看出来，开发商重制的工作量还是很大的，比如整体提升的材质，更高的帧数表现以及更好更有细节的环境，更高级的渲染技术，所有这些提升都让这个重制版在阴影、光照以及灰尘效果上更具有说服力。游戏的UI和操控也进行了一定程度的调整，从而能够让游戏对新玩家更友好。

　　《巴哈：控制边缘》是一款最早于2008年登录XBOX360以及PS3的越野赛车游戏，此番重制之后或许能有更多玩家有机会玩到这款作品。

Only the HD version features much crisper and more detailed visuals running at super smooth framerates in up to 4K screen resolution.

With countless sponsored vehicles in eight classes, including Trophy Trucks, 4x4s and buggies, Baja: Edge of Control HD features a full array of upgradeable options with hundreds of authentic parts that affect each vehicle’s performance.

Players will put their off-road machines to the test in near-vertical Hill Climb challenges, head-to-head Open Class races, circuit races and the ultimate off-road endurance challenge: the Baja! Baja: Edge of Control HD contains more than 100 tracks across all landscapes in races that can last up to four hours.

The game’s vehicle physics deliver authentic handling, and a support management system that allows gamers to monitor and repair realistic vehicle damage as fenders fly, tires are blown, suspension is stressed and engines overheat.

Features

• 4 player split screen and online multiplayer

• Dozens of vehicles to choose from

• Monitor and repair vehicle damage via truck and helicopter teams

• Authentic vehicle physics respond to any bumps and ruts you drive over

• Numerous, authentic vehicle parts to help fine-tune the performance of your off-road machine

Gothic Horror Game 'Black Mirror' Announced for PS4, Xbox One and PC
THQ恐怖新作《黑镜（Black Mirror）》公布 诡异城堡充满死亡气息

　　今日，THQ Nordic公布了旗下的一款恐怖游戏新作《黑镜（Black Mirror）》，由KING Art工作室开发，官方称游戏将拥有“哥特式”的经典恐怖风格。

　　不过当然，此“黑镜”只是与热门英剧《黑镜》名称相同，并没有任何联系，至于游戏讲述了怎样的故事，官方尚未公布太多内容，不过从首支预告中似乎能看出故事依旧发生在“黑镜城堡”。游戏将在2017年11月28日发售，登陆 PC/PS4/Xbox One 平台。

　　恐怖游戏《黑镜》系列已经出品过三款作品，分别于2004年、2009年和2011年发售，而官方表示，即便是不熟悉之前系列玩家可以毫无障碍享受这款游戏，因为最新的作品可以看作为系列的重启，它带来了一个完全独立的新故事，同时在画面表现上也更加出色。

　　此外，新的《黑镜》也保留了原系列的优秀元素，加强了探索性，方便让玩家更简单自由体验“黑镜”世界。所以在游戏中，经典的“点点点进行下一步”将会保留，但自由度却更强，游戏节奏会更惊险刺激。

　　目前《黑镜》游戏的官网也已正式上线，感兴趣的话不妨前去看看吧，



THQ Nordic announces new game: Black Mirror scheduled for release this November

THQ Nordic is thrilled to reveal its new project: Black Mirror, a Gothic horror adventure, due for release on 28th November 2017. The game will be developed by the Bremen studio KING Art Games, known for “The Book of Unwritten Tales”, “The Dwarves” and “The Raven”, and will be available on PC/Mac/Linux, PS4 and Xbox One.

Black Mirror - The Brand

The game name may already exist one way or another, and no, we’re not talking about the Netflix series. The first part of the creepy point-and-click series was released in 2004 as “The Black Mirror”, which produced two more spin-offs, “Black Mirror II” (2009) and “Black Mirror III” (2011).

But don’t worry, even players unfamiliar with the previous games in the series can also enjoy Black Mirror, because this reboot of the franchise tells a totally independent and new story. The major difference between the new and old Black Mirror, apart from the modern graphics of course, will be a new gameplay element: interaction with vision-like apparitions.

Gamescom 2017 and Website

A playable demo of Black Mirror will be ready for gamescom 2017 for both industry and public visitors to try out, and the THQ Nordic Stand (A011) is in the Entertainment Area in Hall 8. Please contact us below if you are media and would like to schedule an appointment and interview the development team during the show.

Those who can’t attend gamescom in Cologne, can at least visit our new website for a first impression of Black Mirror: blackmirror-game.com.

About Black Mirror

Like in the original graphic adventure trilogy, the Gothic Horror genre and its unique atmosphere of madness and psychological distress remains at the heart of Black Mirror.

The point-and-click gameplay of the original trilogy served as the basis for the re-imagined gameplay, which focuses on close-up investigation and interaction with nightmarish visions that plague the protagonist of the game David Gordon.

Key Features

• A modern re-imagining of the acclaimed gothic-horror adventure series

• Interactions with vision-like apparitions which help you learn more about the past of your family

• Eerie atmosphere focusing on the horrors of the mind, in the style of EA Poe and HP Lovecraft

• High quality voice acting from a compelling ensemble cast
