Good morning, fellow players! Let's take a look at what major events happened in the gaming circle from last night to this morning.
The new battle royale game "Hype Squad" is about to be tested
Netstone's new battle royale game "Hype Squad" will be tested globally in mid-June.
"Hype Squad" was once called "Battle Squad", and this name change is to make the title more intuitive to show the game's characteristics.
Hype Squad is a melee action game where players can strategically use the ranged weapons featured in the game. Moreover, during the game, it can also revive the fallen team members. And, since it's a battle royale game, the last remaining team out of 20 teams wins. In addition, there are also "glide ropeways" that quickly occupy favorable positions in the game, "bouncing springboards" that escape from dangerous situations, and so on. In the game, using various elements of the map is as important as the ability to fight personally.
The hype Squad test application will be made later via Steam. Currently, Hype Squad supports 9 languages, including Chinese Simplified, and is not locked in the country. However, the game's launch date has not yet been determined.
Activision Blizzard was indicted by New York City
According to foreign media Axios, New York City filed a lawsuit against Activision Blizzard, accusing Activision Blizzard CEO Bobby Kotick of rushing to sell the company to Microsoft to evade responsibility for wrongdoing and receive huge bonuses. The main people who filed the lawsuit are the New York City Employees' Retirement System and pension fund, which each owns Activision stock. They believe that the actions of Activision Blizzard's management have depreciated the stock significantly, resulting in a serious loss of the return on the shares.
The lawsuit alleges that Bobby Kotick and Activision Blizzard board members sought to use Microsoft's deal to "evade its liability for serious breaches of fiduciary duties." At the same time, Microsoft's purchase price of $95 per share of the company is also lower than the actual value of Activision Blizzard, because the activision Blizzard traded close to that price before the Activision Blizzard controversy began last year. New York City demanded that Activision Blizzard hand over a large number of internal documents, including materials related to the Deal with Microsoft, five other potential buyers at the time of the sale negotiations, a board memorandum, and documents that helped determine Kotick's understanding of the company's sexual harassment issue.

Legend M will launch a chronicle
A few days ago, Entertainment Virtue released the chronicle of its MMORPG mobile game "Legend M".
The chronicle of Legend m tells the story of why there was a war in the Legendary Continent and why players became "investigators" to explore the Legendary Continent and fight.
Chapter 1: The Blessing of the Dragon
The story begins with the legendary continent of the beginning. The divine dragon that loved mankind sent fire to mankind, and mankind developed rapidly and established a powerful empire , the "Divine Dragon Empire". The orcs, whose culture and strength are no less than those of humans, invaded the "Beach Region", the central region of the Dragon Empire, in order to seize territory.
Chapter 2: The Big Bang
For this reason, the human race suffered huge losses, and the angry dragons planned to sweep away the orcs. At this time, the Akatsuki Demon, who was not accustomed to the dragon's preference for humans, began to oppose the dragon. During the war between the Dragon and the Akatsuki Demon, different opinions began to arise within the Dragon and split. The split of the Dragon caused a big explosion, destroying all the life forms in the "Beach Area". At this time, the Akatsuki Demon, who had suffered great damage, hid in the Akatsuki Gorge.
Chapter 3: Midnight Island
Due to the aftermath of the Big Bang, the "Gate of Hell" was opened on the "Midnight Island" located on the seashore in the Beach area, releasing the power of the Fire Demon Prince and plunging the world into chaos. At this moment, the dragon sealed the Gate of Hell with the last bit of strength, and then split into 7 selves.
Chapter 4: A Fresh Start
As time passed, life began to appear in the Beach area again, and the land began to become fertile. The immigrants of the Shenlong Empire began to settle in the Beach area, and the orcs in the Southern Barbarian region also began to set their sights on this land. As ghouls and monsters appeared in various parts of the Beech area, the King of Beech, who discovered the abnormal movement of the orc tribe, sent a team of warriors, mages, Taoists and other three warriors to investigate.
"Legend M" is a new IP work of "Legend" restored after adding modern interpretations to "Legend 2" (national costume name: Legend of Blood). Like Legends 2, Legends M also uses a top-down perspective and incorporates the core content of the original game, and also provides familiar fun for Legends 2 players and new fun for new players through the latest systems such as Unreal Engine.
Currently, Legend M is making reservations in Korea.
