Press Release
LARKSPUR, CA – September 21, 2010 – Deep Silver, the games label of Koch Media, a worldwide producer and distributor of digital entertainment products, announced today that SBK®X, the newest addition to the simulation Superbike World Championship racing series developed by Milestone, will be shipping in America with the Legends Pack DLC on disc for console versions.
The Legends Pack brings the biggest names in Superbike racing back onto the track! Players can destroy the competition as “King” Carl Fogarty on his beast of a Ducati 996, or take control of Ben Spies’ devastating Yamaha R1. With 16 legendary racers to choose from, players will be able to take the competition of the present and face off against the masters of the past! No matter who they choose, they’ll ride the track as a Legend.
“We feel that bringing these luminaries of the circuit as playable characters to SBK X is a real honor,” said Geoff Mulligan, Chief Operating Officer at Deep Silver, while strapping on his racing helmet. “While fans of the Superbike World Championship will enjoy the robust selection of current competitors to race as or against, having the men who truly left their mark on the sport represented will really excite them. Who wouldn’t want to race as their favorite competitor, whether they’re currently racing or not? With the Legends DLC pack built into the console versions, gamers will be able to do just that.”
SBK X offers a wealth of options to the player: whether pursuing a highly realistic racing experience or just thirsty for a push-button go-fast thrill ride, players will find what they need. Add in constantly evolving tracks, 90+ racers to choose from, three separate racing classes, 16 player multiplayer, and a robust career mode, and players will find that SBK X gives them everything they’re looking for.
SBK X will be coming out on 10/19/10 for the PlayStation®3 computer entertainment system and Xbox 360® video game and entertainment system from Microsoft® for $39.99 and on Windows PC for $29.99

UTV Ignition Entertainment Have Released New Screenshots And A Trailer For El Shaddai: Ascension of the Metatron
UTV Ignition Entertainment have released new screenshots and a trailer for Tokyo Game Show for El Shaddai: Ascension of the Metatron. Both the trailer and screenshots show in-game action, with the trailer showing a mix of platforming and battling.
Screenshots
UTV Ignition Entertainment have also announced that El Shaddai: Ascension of the Metatron won the “Future Game of the Show 2010” award at Tokyo Game Show, an award the public attending the show vote for.
Press Release
London, UK—September 21st, 2010— El Shaddai: Ascension of the Metatron, the awe-inspiringly beautiful title from UTV Ignition Entertainment was on display at Tokyo Games Show this year. Just as the gaming press were swept away by its diverse gameplay and truly individual art style, the public also saw the full potential of the title, awarding it the “Future Game of the Show 2010” award; a near unheard of commendation for a brand new franchise.
Developed by a hugely-talented, Tokyo-based team, members of which have worked on titles such as Devil May Cry, Okami and Viewtiful Joe, El Shaddai: Ascension of the Metatron draws players into a rich storyline inspired by events in the Old Testament’s apocryphal ‘Book of Enoch. Combining silky smooth combat and both 2D and 3D gaming, El Shaddai: Ascension of the Metatron is as playable as it is jaw-dropping to look at. The team’s legendary development pedigree has resulted in a game that is like no other, and must be seen in motion to be fully appreciated.
Accepting the award on behalf of the UTVIgnition Japan studio, Director Sawaki Takeyasu was clearly in high spirits: “This was very unexpected, but it is a great honour and I am delighted to accept such an award. We started this project 4 years ago with a strong will, in hopes to create a flagship title for all the gamers in the world. I was extremely fortunate to have such a great team to work with.”
El Shaddai: Ascension of the Metatron is currently in development for the Xbox360 and Playstation 3.
