New Furiends Augmented Reality Game - iOS Android

Furiends will launch on AR-capable Apple devices (iPhone 6S and newer) running the latest version of iOS. Blue Goji plans to have a version of Furiends to support Android devices later this year. The game will be free to download and play, with the option of in-app purchases.

The main goal is to take good care of your virtual dogs. You need to play and walk with them, feed them well and make sure they drink plenty of water — the same activities you should do for yourselves. A key component of Furiends is the step-tracking feature: to take care of their virtual pet, players need to be physically active. The game can read the user’s step count from their device and convert those steps into “Fur-coins.” Players are given step goals to achieve or exceed, so that they are consistently motivated to stay active.

Vampyr announces new difficulty modes for later this summer - PC PS4 XO

Vampyr narrative-driven action-RPG set in 1918 London, announces a content update coming later this summer on PS4, Xbox One, and PC. This will include two new game difficulty modes which add further replayability for existing players and more options for those who haven’t yet sunk their teeth into this dark adventure.

As well as bringing a host of optimization tweaks, the upcoming update will introduce a ‘Story’ mode that de-emphasizes combat and a cranked-up, more challenging Hard mode. The Story mode places a greater focus on narrative, allowing players to experience Dr. Reid’s journey with less challenging combat. On the other end of the scale, Hard mode makes combat much more difficult. Players will receive less experience from killing enemies too, forcing them to rely even more on embracing citizens to grow in power.
