The shooting game based on Greek Mythology is receiving a push pack

PiXEL has announced that its game Wing of Asteria has been delayed.

Originally announced in 2020, the shoot ’em up game takes from Greek Mythology and was expected to be released for 2021, yet has sadly been pushed back to being released in 2022. No reason was given as to why, but it is expected the global pandemic has affected production like most games.

Wing of Asteria

PiXEL will be bringing WIng of Asteria to Nintendo Switch and PC. It will be a side-scrolling shoot ’em game based on Greek myths as stated above (finally, my degree comes in handy) and already has notable people working on the development of the game.

Shujirou Hamakawa, who is behind some classic, Japanese games such as TwinBee, as well as credit for some popular anime titles like High School DxD, Code Geass, and Fullmetal Alchemist  Brotherhood, will be a character designer for the game. Yoshinori Kawamoto is also signed up for WIng of Asteria as its composer, who is part of the Bandai Namco Studios Sound Team that have worked on games such as Star Fox Assult, Burning Force, and Tekken 7. They, along with the rest of the development team, will be bringing a brand new story with unique characters, scenery, and creatures in Wing of Asteria.

It is unknown whether the game will be released in additional languages other than Japanese for the time being, but an international date being announced later down the line is most likely.

Some character designs have already been released and their descriptions have already been translated thanks to Gematsu.

Artemis: Bow wielder and Goddess of the Moon. She is the protagonist of this story. In order to restore the life of her beloved Orion, she sets off on an adventure with her horse Pegasus.

Orion: The protagonist Artemis’ beloved. A scheme by Artemis’ older brother Apollo, who disliked their companionship, led to Orion’s death. That was the trigger for a huge disaster in the land of the gods and world of the humans.

Griffon (Mid-Boss): A beast with powerful claws that spits fire from its mouth and blocks Artemis’ path forward. Originally, its main role was to pull Apollo’s chariot, but at the order of Apollo himself, it waits on the coast with Siren, the enchantress of the sea.

As you Halo fans already know it is just a few more days to go until Halo 5’s biggest – ever Warzone Firefight expansion launches on June 29 and 343 has now shared loads more new information about it.

The pictures which have leaked has given players a great insight of what the new maps are going to be like, also a rough scale of how large the maps are really going to be like. 343 has been giving weekly updates with stuff such as insights from the developers point of views and one major thing they have recently updated us about is the new game mode Warzone Firefight and how it has changed since the beta in April.

First thing 343 did was go over the fan feedback from the beta they released not so long ago, 343 have taken measures to make sure players objective are clear. “We added a brand new splash feed that shows up at the beginning of each round. It shouts, loud and clear, the round number and what you need to do to succeed. It’s front and centre and literally comes in with a ‘splash’” 343 said.

They also announced that the mini scoreboard in the bottom-right of the screen now shows your team’s progress towards current objectives. Before this scoreboard only showed your personal score.

“Depending on the goal, the scoreboard will look and act different in order to inform your squad as to how the round is shaping out,” 343 said. “For instance, if the goal is to eliminate 100 Grunts, a red bar will fill from right to left as your team takes each one out. Or if, for example, your team needs to defend the Armoury, a blue bar will slowly shrink from left to right as the enemy AI captures the base.”

343 also confirmed there will be six maps, one of which is new, for Warzone Firefight. The beta only had one. These include:
• Escape from A.R.C.
• March on Stormbreak
• Raid on Apex 7
• Skirmish at Darkstar
• Urban
• Attack on Sanctum (new)
