SEOUL, South Korea, May 27, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — Pearl Abyss announced today that a powerful new World Boss has arrived in Black Desert Mobile. Adventurers can now challenge Enraged Red Nose, whose raid requires higher-level skills and offers incredible rewards.
New World Boss Enraged Red Nose Arrives in Black Desert Mobile
Red Nose is one of the first bosses that Adventurers must fight against when leveling up their characters. Red Nose, looking for revenge for being defeated multiple times, has returned as Enraged Red Nose and now has more strength and power than ever before.
Adventurers can encounter this monster in the Altar of Agris in the region of Balenos when they feel its rage across the lands. Enraged Red Nose is even more difficult to defeat as it performs a wide range of attacks that utilize its large body and range. Those who successfully knock down this enemy will have a chance to obtain the Red Nose Armor, which is an Abyssal-grade gear.
Apart from defeating this World Boss, there is still a chance of getting Abyssal-grade gear by crafting Abyssal-grade weapons and armor using World Boss Fragments. These fragments can be obtained by defeating World Bosses.
In addition to the Enraged Red Nose update, Abyssal Lightstones are also now available in Black Desert Mobile. This new grade of Lightstones are stronger than others, offering Adventurers more powerful options to enhance their skills. They can get these new items by drawing and fusing Lightstones.

Put out fires and save lives…or have a laugh trying
LONDON, May 25, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — Curve Digital and Muse Games are excited to announce that frantic, frenetic, firefighting multiplayer Embr launches on Early Access for Steam and Google StadiaMay 21st.
Frenetic Firefighting Multiplayer, Embr, Hits Early Access for Steam and Stadia
Developed by Muse Games – the studio behind the award-winningGuns of Icarus Online – Embr is a fantastically fictional look at a world where the gig economy rules the roost and the general public now stand ready, phones in hand, to respond to firefighting emergencies.
Players will either play solo or work together in online teams tackling blaze after blaze to earn tips from clients, picking up the ever-so-crucial 5-star rating in order to earn cash, upgrade tools, and hopefully becoming the ultimate ‘have-a-go hero’ firefighter.
This is no like-for-like simulator, however. Embr is an intentionally satirical, tongue-in-cheek look at the rise of venture capitalism, with its license for allowing players to solve problems creatively resulting in toss-the-resident-out-of-the-window-onto-a-trampoline style solutions that just wouldn’t fly with a real fire fighting force.
"With Embr, we set out to shine a satirical light on the gig-economy – not in terms of the people making those deliveries and driving those taxis, but rather the companies at the top powering this particular brand of venture capitalism and deregulation," says Howard Tsao, Team Lead at Muse Games. "On a gameplay basis, we also wanted to see just what mayhem would occur if the untrained masses headed out with a hose and tried to put out fires in the same way people deliver take-out or drive people around in makeshift taxis. The end result is just as fun and frenetic as we thought it would be. It just makes you appreciate what a difficult and almost impossible job real-life firefighters do."
Embr offers players a variety of missions to earn money and upgrade their firefighting tools and lease better vehicles and fire trucks, all while dealing with competition from the Canadian firefighting startup Hosr. Staying competitive, however, relies on players working together, planning firefighting and rescuing in dense environments with complex systems interactions; water, fire, gas, electricity, and structure integrity all have a role to play.
Embr also offers cross-platform multiplayer, with Steam players able to play with their Stadia counterparts and vice-versa.
Curve Digital is also proud to announce that Embrwill be brought to life by CORSAIR iCUE software on PC. The room will be lit up as players fight fires, scale buildings, and rescue people from danger. When certain events are triggered in-game, the dynamic RGB lighting on CORSAIR iCUE-compatible components and peripherals will change to compliment the action in play.
Embr launches on Steam Early Access on May 21st for $19.99/€19.99/£17.99 with a 20% discount in launch week. Players can expect multiple free major content drops in the months after launch significantly expanding the game. Muse Games will also continue to diligently work with the community to further shape theEmbrexperience based on feedback and suggestions.

Sequel to "Super Tank Rumble" with over 20 million downloads worldwide… Challenging the global market with next-level gaming quality
SEONGNAM, South Korea, May 22, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — Smilegate Megaport (CEO Ina Jang) announced that global pre-registration for "SUPERTANK BLITZ," a new, casual mobile sandbox game serviced by Smilegate Megaport and developed by Lumidia Games (CEO Jangho Lee), will begin on the 21st (Thursday).
Casual mobile sandbox game “SUPERTANK BLITZ” now available for global pre-registration
Pre-registration will be offered worldwide, simultaneously, through the SUPERTANK BLITZ pre-registration website (https://supertankblitz.smilegatemegaport.com/evt/202005_preregist?lang=en) and Google Play. Users who participate in pre-registration will receive a variety of in-game goods such as Gems, Super Boxes, and special issue Medals.
SUPERTANK BLITZ is the sequel to mobile sandbox game "Super Tank Rumble," which was released by Smilegate in 2017 and recorded over 20 million downloads worldwide. Chosen by Google as the most innovative game of 2017, "Super Tank Rumble" has been recognized for its original game quality.
The larger framework of the series where various parts are combined to build your very own tank and compete with other players has been maintained, while new elements have been added to character collection and emphasis has been placed on battle content for more casual enjoyment. Furthermore, the entire UI (user interface) of the Tank Assembly page has been dramatically improved, and parts organization has been simplified to enjoy more intuitive tank assembly.
The addition of character elements is the most notable change to the sequel. Users can collect and build a variety of characters through real-time battles. As the character grows, more parts are made available to create an original, powerful tank. Each character has its own distinctive tank, and the tank is provided when a new character is collected, providing a foundation for easy assembly of tanks of a wide variety.
