2D Cinematic Platformer Ministry Of Broadcast Now Available For Pre-order!

Ministry of Broadcast

Nintendo™ Switch – North America

  • Ministry of Broadcast is a 2D dystopian cinematic platformer filled with mischievous humor, sarcasm and more.
  • Run, jump, climb and smash your way through each Arena while events around you unfold one by one.
  • Pre-order is now available here at Playasia.

PRE-ORDER NOW!


Developed by the Ministry of Broadcast (MoB) from the Czech Republic and Hitcents as the game publisher comes a 2D cinematic platformer titled Ministry of Broadcast. This is the same name with its developer.

Ministry of Broadcast is a narrative-driven cinematic platformer. It follows an unnamed, ginger-haired character who tries to reunite with his family by crossing the Regime-constructed barrier splitting the country, known as the wall, into two.

The game was inspired by Prince of Persia which was released in 1989 and Oddworld: Abe’s Exoddus. Expect a lot of running and jumping. Both the player and the protagonists will struggle under the weight of the Dystopian Regime with deadly obstacles, and jam-packed challenges with some hints of sarcasm and humor.

Game Overview

“Ministry of Broadcast” embodies the spirit of classic cinematic platformers where players need finely tuned run-and-jump reflexes as well as a healthy aversion to falling from deadly heights. To earn your freedom and reunite with your family, you must guide our hero through a series of Arenas, which are under the ever-present gaze of the Regime’s electric eye. Each hazardous, decaying environment houses an array of obstacles that you must navigate—leg-shattering drops (hope you’re not scared of heights), flaming trash barrels (with extra fire and extra stench), inconveniently located spike pits (naturally), dangling steel beams (watch for the rusty bits)—but all of that’s nothing compared to the fates of the poor souls you’ll meet along the way…

Get ready for a new cinematic platformer injected with mischievous humor, sarcasm, and absurdity of the system. Pre-order Ministry of Broadcast now here at Playasia!

PRE-ORDER NOW!


Here below are the game's trailer, features, and screenshots for you to enjoy:

【TRAILER】

【FEATURES】

  • Cinematic Platforming- Run, jump, climb and smash your way through each Arena while events unfold around you. Much of the story is revealed through seamlessly integrated animation sequences, environment details, or NPCs dropping bits of dialogue and you sneak, dive, and dodge around them
  • Environmental HUD- Instead of a screen cluttered with distracting indicators, minimaps, and HP bars overlaying the action, all the information the player will need is incorporated directly into the environment. Important hints and clues are subtly incorporated into the game’s art, so players will need a keen eye if they want to get through each Arena unscathed
  • Puzzle Solving- You’ll need to use your wits, and sometimes a dash of ruthlessness, to advance through each deadly Arena. Much of the puzzle-solving requires you to interact directly with the environment; use your own momentum to move platforms, find and flip the right levers, and maybe even sacrifice an NPC or two in order to get across an extra spiky pit
  • Story and Personality- The game features a heavy dose of impish humor, grade-A sarcasm, and comic mischief, balanced against the dark, heavy themes of a thoroughly dystopian world

Shin Sakura Taisen for PS4 – Modernity rules over the world!

Posted: 10 Dec 2019 09:40 PM PST

Shin Sakura Taisen

PlayStation®4 Ι Genre: Taishō Chic Adventure

Art Deco with a new idea of modernism; these couple of concepts summarize perfectly the aesthetic of the Taishō era. Began in 1912, this period lasted only 14 years, consolidated the international image of Japan as a modern country able to relate with the most powerful countries of the world.
Deeply fascinated by western cultures and habits; in the Taishō era, Japan witnessed a never-seen-before East-West hybridization that brought a tremendous effect on the everyday life of many people. For example; western artistic movements like art nouveau, art deco, expressionism, abstraction, and impressionism have been fused with typical Japanese works of art to release something very new like Shin Hanga (new prints) or Sosaku Hanga (creative prints). In addition, from a social perspective, the biggest revolution has been pursued by a new, rising class: moga and mobo; a.k.a. modern girls and modern boys.
Criticized by older generations, and by some conservative press as frivolous, and self-centered; its due to this cultural movement that phenomenon like Takarazuka theater was born (and resist still today). Speaking about moga in particular; their manifesto is without any doubt the novel Naomi, wrote in 1924 by Jun’ichirō Tanizaki, and originally serialized on the Osaka’s Morning News before, and on the women's magazine Josei after.
It's useless to mention, that the fascination for this era continues still nowadays; in fact, video games like Devil Summoner: Raidou Kuzunoha or Sakura Taisen series approached it in a very interesting way creating an alternative version of these 14 years.

The Sakura Wars series, in particular; shows how a modern girl can do anything challenging hordes of black magicians who aim to dethrone the Emperor and eradicate any western influence from Japan.
Built by five episodes; the first adventure appeared in 1996 for Sega Saturn only in Japan, but despite the language barrier, it has conquered the hearts of a lot of gamers worldwide. Praised for its character design, compelling story, and high replay value; Famitsu wrote that this game was "wholeheartedly recommended", and during its release date it was sold out in many stores across the country.
Getting a so unexpected success the developers started to plan the next adventures of Sakura Shinguji, which has appeared on Dreamcast, PlayStation 2, and Wii…but today that beautiful girl who wears the pink kimono will return on PlayStation 4 with the much-awaited Shin Sakura Taisen!

Set in the fictional 29th year of Taishō Era (1940); the sixth installment for PS4 takes place twelve years before the events occurred in Sakura Wars V: So Long, My Love. A global-scale war has destroyed Tokyo, Paris, and New York; this means that almost all the members of the Combat Revues of those cities tragically disappeared. So, the few survivors join their forces to create a brand new Imperial Combat Revue’s Flower Division which is based in Tokyo. Lead by Seijuro Kamiyama, an Imperial Japanese Navy captain; this team is formed by Sakura Amamiya, a 17 years-old girl which is considered the heir of Sakura Shinguji; Hatsuho Shinonome, a shrine maiden of the Shinonome Shrine in Shitamachi; Anastasia Palma, a Greek actress which is now a precious member of the Imperial Combat Revue; Azami Mochizuki, a highly-skilled 13 years old kunoichi of the Mochizuki clan; and last but not least Clarissa “Claris” Snowflake, a Luxembourger noblewoman who loves reading. Together, this band of heroes will fight against a new demonic invasion; while they will try to win the prestigious The Great Combat Revue World War competition.
Part Action-RPG, part visual novel, and part dating simulation; Shin Sakura Taisen for PS4 is a true blossoming of a wide variety of genres that will let you live an exciting story where the broader outlook and the open-minded perspective of moga and mobo can save the world from the darkness.

Proudly enriched by steampunk elements, mechs, and a multi-branched story full with twists and turns; Shin Sakura Taisen for PS4 is a charming and highly refined adventure that will let unleash your heroic spirit.
Get ready to fight a new war digitally or physically, and don't forget that even in these turbulent times, you can find beauty around you!

Game Overview

 Ghost of Tsushima is an upcoming action-adventure game set in feudal Japan during the Mongol invasion. It is an open-world game set in the year 1274.

Samurai warriors are the legendary defenders of Japan–until the fearsome Mongol Empire invades the island of Tsushima, wreaking havoc and conquering the local population. As one of the last surviving samurai, you rise from the ashes to fight back. But, honorable tactics won't lead you to victory. You must move beyond your samurai traditions to forge a new way of fighting–the way of the Ghost–as you wage an unconventional war for the freedom of Japan.
