Todo comienza en Liberty City.

Grand Theft Auto III, el juego de PlayStation 2 mejor valorado de todos los tiempos, también fue el juego de consola más vendido el año de su lanzamiento, trayendo consigo una nueva era de los videojuegos y un ejército de fans que catapultaron la serie hasta el centro de la cultura.»

Grand Theft Auto: Vice City

En Grand Theft Auto: Vice City se perfecciona este enfoque que ofrece mayores niveles de inmersión, detalle y humor al transportar a los jugadores a la década de los ochenta hacia una ciudad tropical rebosante de neones y excesos que conocemos a través de la historia de traición y venganza de Tommy Vercetti.

«Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Te damos la bienvenida a los 80. De la década de las grandes melenas, los excesos y los trajes de tonos pastel, llega la historia de un hombre que ascendió a lo más alto del mundo del crimen. Grand Theft Auto regresa con la historia de traición y venganza de Tommy Vercetti en una ciudad tropical rebosante de neones, exceso y posibilidades.

Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, una versión satírica de EE. UU. en los 80, ofrece mayores niveles de inmersión y humor. En ella debutaba un protagonista (Tommy Vercetti) interpretado por un actor de doblaje, la capacidad de crear tu imperio criminal mediante la compra de propiedades y negocios por toda la ciudad, y una de las bandas sonoras con licencia más emblemáticas de la historia de los videojuegos. Fue el juego más vendido en 2002, el año de su lanzamiento original.»

Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas

En Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas se profundizó aún más en estos conceptos con la introducción de tres ciudades distintas, incluida la primera Los Santos, así como también una serie de nuevas características, mientras vemos a Carl «CJ» Johnson hacer frente a las bandas y a los policías corruptos para salvar a su familia en un afectuoso homenaje a la década de los noventa.

«Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas Hace cinco años, Carl Johnson, alias CJ, huyó de la bruma de Los Santos, San Andreas… una ciudad destrozada por las bandas, las drogas y la corrupción. Estamos a principios de los 90. CJ tiene que volver a casa. Su madre fue asesinada, su familia está destrozada y sus amigos de la infancia están al borde del abismo. Al volver al barrio, un par de policías corruptos lo incriminan falsamente en un homicidio. CJ se ve arrastrado a un viaje que lo llevará a cruzar todo San Andreas para salvar a su familia y obtener el control de las calles en la siguiente entrega de la serie que lo cambió todo.

Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas es el juego más vendido de PlayStation 2 de todos los tiempos y fue elprimero de la trilogía en incluir tres ciudades distintas, cada una con un entorno natural y exuberante que separaba sus fronteras. Además de la perspectiva desde el volante tan característica de la serie, Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas mejoró en profundidad el sistema de progreso de personajes, haciendo posible que los jugadores influyeran en el aspecto y las habilidades de CJ al participar en ciertas actividades y misiones que le daban un nuevo sentido a su personaje.»

Acerca de Hunt Showdown 1896

Hunt Showdown 1986 es una nueva era del juego competitivo de cazarrecompensas en primera persona Hunt Showdown que reúne la emoción de la supervivencia y la recompensa con un formato basado en el terror.

El juego está ambientado en Colorado en 1896 y ofrece una mezcla de elementos PvP y PvE que crean una experiencia única y tensa. La sensación de amenaza no solo procede de las criaturas sino también de los demás cazadores del mapa.

En el modo de juego clásico una partida de Hunt enfrenta a 12 jugadores que se enfrentan entre sí en solitario o en equipos de dos o tres en una competición por acabar con las horripilantes bestias a cambio de una recompensa que deben recoger y sacar del mapa.

El modo de juego rápido de Caza consiste en una partida más corta para que los jugadores busquen armas en solitario mientras compiten para conseguir un fondo de recompensa que se va reduciendo con el tiempo.

Cuanto mayor es el riesgo, mayor es la recompensa, pero un solo error puede suponer perderlo todo. Hunt Showdown 1896 llegará a PC vía Steam, PlayStation 5 y Series X|S el 15 de agosto de 2024. Para más información, visita www.huntshowdown.com.
