NetEase Games announces perfect crossover for its asymmetrical survival horror Identity V

Identity V has had quite a few crossovers by this point, as well as amassed quite a big cast of Hunters and Survivors, but very few have hit the nail on the head quite as squarely as this latest team-up with physiological horror IP, Angels of Death. It has taken long enough for these two properties to cross, as the dark, morbid nature of Angels of Death definitely meshes well with the themes of Identity V. When a young girl named Rachel wakes up in the lowest basement in a sick and twisted murder game, she teams up with serial killer Zack to escape, on the condition that when they do, he will dispatch her, based on Rachels own wish. Morbid indeed. The Manor Escaping Project will task you t…

Never fight alone in new mode for Boxing Star

FourThirtyThree inc has announced the implementation of a new mode for their sports simulator Boxing Star. Tag Mode is the newest way for you to enjoy the action, and will be adding a whole new dimension to gameplay for your to master.

It is an interesting concept for the sport and one that opens up a lot of tactical possibilities. You could start with a fighter with high stamina to slowly whittle down your opponent, before tagging in your more fragile but stronge…
