Torn Banner Studios Reveals New Action Game Set in a World of Fantasy and Magic, Mirage: Arcane Warfare

Torn Banner Studios, the creators of the popular first-person medieval combat simulator Chivalry: Medieval Warfare are proud to finally reveal to their fans a first look at their upcoming magic and blood-soaked title, Mirage: Arcane Warfare. To introduce their newest IP Torn Banner has released a gameplay trailer. Additionally, the official website has launched offering more details about the game: MirageArcaneWarfare.com. The game will make its debut at GDC 2016 (San Francisco, March 14-18) – interested media can schedule a private meeting to learn more about the new game.

In Mirage: Arcane Warfare, the calm of a strange fantasy world is shattered by ruthless civil war. Warriors armed with steel and magic bring violence and death as they do battle across a fantastical Arabian and Persian-inspired setting of desert sands, market bazaars and grand palaces. Built using the powerful new capabilities of Unreal Engine 4, Mirage: Arcane Warfare presents visually stunning backdrops to some viscerally brutal multiplayer combat.

"Our last game Chivalry was about chopping off people’s heads with a sword. Mirage takes that core gameplay DNA and explodes with a range of new bloody, brutal combat possibilities thanks to the addition of powerful magic” said Steve Piggott, Torn Banner CEO and game designer on Mirage: Arcane Warfare. “Mixing in the elements of fantasy and magic allow us to add entirely new components and levels of complexity to that core team-based combat concept that we find so much fun to play.”

“Our artists have created a rich and unusual world in Mirage, full of colour, character and a unique setting that is so rarely explored in video games,” according to Torn Banner environment artist Lucas Annunziata. “Working with Unreal Engine 4 has not only helped us bring to life the exotic locales of Mirage, it also gives us the tools to make magic effects that dazzle and bloody gore that make us cringe.”

Slated for release on PC through Steam later this year, Mirage: Arcane Warfare will feature a range of diverse player classes each with their own unique weapon and skill sets, exotic fantasy locales, multiple multiplayer game modes including objective-based challenges, brutal gore and a host of other innovative new features. Currently in development, Torn Banner will roll out more information and progress about Mirage: Arcane Warfare in the coming months.

Torn Banner will have a private meeting room off site during GDC week on Wednesday, March 16 and Thursday, March 17. Interested media are invited to schedule a meeting to reserve a session with the team to learn more about Mirage: Arcane Warfare.

Everquest Next Cancelled
《无尽的任务》系列新作《无尽的任务 Next》取消开发

　　游戏开发商 Daybreak Games 近日宣布，将取消新作《无尽的任务 Next（Ever Quest Next）》开发。

　　《无尽的任务 Next》为《无尽的任务》系列新作，游戏围绕着一个重新构想的 Norrath 大陆，并加入新地图和场景，不过玩家依然可以找到过去《无尽的任务》系列作品的同伴、敌人和地名。
　　Daybreak Games 近日表示，取消《无尽的任务 Next》开发是研发团队经过反复审查和考虑之后决定的，「在过去 20 年，我们从一股热情开始，而看着《无尽的任务》带给玩家娱乐、凝聚玩家，它塑造了我们自己的文化并让我大胆地在游戏中加入自己的想法和理念。 」

　　官方进一步指出：「当初决定制作《无尽的任务 Next》时，我们是希望能在做带来革命性的东西，而我们也完成了惊人创举，但当我们将想法结合时，我们发现这并不有趣。 提到 Norrath 大陆时，玩家会用高标准来看待它，我们也是；因此在最后的审查中，我们不得不面对『《无尽的任务 Next》世界无法满足我们的期待』的这个事实。 」



EQN News: A Letter from Daybreak's President

To Our Daybreak Community,

I’m writing today to let you know that, after much review and consideration, Daybreak is discontinuing development of EverQuest Next.

For the past 20 years EverQuest has been a labor of love. What started as a deep passion of ours, as game creators, grew into a much larger passion shared by you, millions of players and Daybreakers alike. Watching EverQuest’s ability to entertain and bring people together has inspired and humbled us. It’s shaped our culture and has emboldened us to take aggressive risks with our game ideas and products. When we decided to create the next chapter in the EverQuest journey, we didn’t aim low. We set out to make something revolutionary.

For those familiar with the internals of game development, you know that cancellations are a reality we must face from time to time. Inherent to the creative process are dreaming big, pushing hard and being brutally honest with where you land. In the case of EverQuest Next, we accomplished incredible feats that astonished industry insiders. Unfortunately, as we put together the pieces, we found that it wasn’t fun. We know you have high standards when it comes to Norrath and we do too. In final review, we had to face the fact that EverQuest Next would not meet the expectations we – and all of you – have for the worlds of Norrath.

The future of the EverQuest franchise as a whole is important to us here at Daybreak. EverQuest in all its forms is near and dear to our hearts. EverQuest and EverQuest II are going strong. Rest assured that our passion to grow the world of EverQuest remains undiminished.

Yours truly,

Russell Shanks - President, Daybreak Games

Mages of Mystralia Announced for PC

















Mages of Mystralia Revealed at Game Developers Conference

Borealys Games release a teaser trailer for Mages of Mystralia, a new action-adventure game set in a lively fantasy world in which you can design your own spells.

The story is being written by bestselling author Ed Greenwood, the author of hundreds of fantasy books and creator of the Forgotten Realms fantasy world for Dungeons and Dragons, a world which served as the setting for the classic Baldur’s Gate and Neverwinter Nights series of games. Dan Adelman, former head of all things indie for 9 years at Nintendo of America, and currently the business side of Axiom Verge and Chasm, is also deeply involved.

In Mages of Mystralia, you play as Zia, a young girl who discovers that she has been born with an innate ability to work magic. Unfortunately, magic has been banned by the Marquis, so Zia sets off to train on her own and learn control over her magic. On her journey, she encounters danger, but discovers mysterious magical runes—and soon realizes she can combine them in many different ways to craft completely new spells! But Mystralia is in peril; will she master enough magic in time?

Borealys Games is a new studio based in Montreal composed of industry veterans who have worked on games ranging from the Assassin’s Creed series through Far Cry to Prince of Persia: Sands of Time.

Members of the public interested in learning more about the game are encouraged to sign up for the newsletter at MagesOfMystralia.com and learn how to design their own spells next month at PAX East!
