Las Vegas - April 25th, 2024PM Studios is excited to announce the physical release of two games and one collection that you will not want to miss out on!

First up is Stories from Sol: The Gun-Dog. This visual novel adventure was designed in the spirit of classic PC-9800 titles. Featuring a vintage green screen aesthetic, Space Colony Studios strives to create an "era-accurate" game that exudes retro vibes in every way, from the text to the visual effects. As the Jovian patrol ship sails into the darkness among the stars, the players will feel like they are on an adventure in an 80s Sci-Fi as they solve the mystery they find themselves in.


Watch out for Stories from Sol: The Gun-Dog headed your way later this winter on PlayStation 5, but if we have you so excited that you just can’t wait head on over to Nintendo Switch, Steam, or PlayStation 5 and you can play the demo that’s available right now!


 Next up is Dwerve. This tower defense, dungeon crawler, RPG from Half Human Games has you play as a young dwarf tinkerer who adventures into a ruined kingdom and unearths the lost technologies of the ancient warsmiths: turrets and traps. These are the only weapons that can protect the dwarves from Witch-Queen Vandra and her army of bloodthirsty trolls and monstrous creatures hellbent on conquering the surface.


Keep one eye open for Dwerve fighting its way to the Nintendo Switch and PlayStation 5 on August 1st. 
 Last, but certainly not least, is Bitmap Bureau Collection. This isn’t just a game, it’s a collection of 3 retro classics by Bitmap Bureau, for one incredible collection of arcade mayhem.

Run ‘N’ Gun your way through thousands of adversaries in Xeno Crisis, searching for survivors, and ultimately facing the origin of the outpost's demise.

Hack ‘N’ Slash your way through Battle Axe, with true-to-form gameplay mechanics and the fantastical pixel art world of Mercia to discover.

Beat ‘em up in Final Vendetta with nostalgic arcade graphics and a tough cast of core characters to fight with.

Features

  • 3 retro style games, with stunning pixel art in each one

  • A wide variety of combat systems and gameplay mechanics to learn in each game

  • Thumping soundtracks with exclusive tracks from Utah Saints and  the legendary VGM composer Manami Matsumae

  • Full-Color 52 page Artbook 

  • “Best Of” Soundtrack CD feat. Utah Saints, Manami Matsumae & Featurecast

  • 5 Collectible Postcards
