Restart the Gaming Era

Biquge www.xbiquge.tw, the fastest update to restart the game era!

On May 15th, all players who have purchased the MGC2 handheld, open the homepage of the handheld game mall, and a promotional video will automatically pop up.

And in many other places, Moya Technology has also placed a lot of advertisements!

Video sites, game sites, self-media...

Moya Technology bought almost all the popular channels, and the publicity funds invested even exceeded the previous three games that were escorted for the first time.

This is the best opportunity Lin Xiaoguang can see to turn around. What is there to save on a mere hundreds of thousands of publicity funds?

On the other hand, the game "Zodiac Guardian" is also known to players for some reasons, that is, the first 3D game of Shimmer Studios!

From an independent studio to a big game company, the journey during this period was very bumpy. Those major companies that can truly occupy a place in the global game market, almost all have several masterpieces and several well-known big IPs in their hands.

It is undoubtedly a key step in the transformation of Shimmer Studios to develop 3D games.

It's a pity... the game that was made was exclusive to the MGC2 handheld platform for a limited time. Many players who played games such as knocking bowls on the PC side were disappointed.

It's just a game, so you shouldn't spend nearly 2,000 yuan to buy a useless handheld just for this game, right?

There are still many people who are lamenting, thinking that Weiguang Studio is devoting themselves to Moya Technology for short-term profit, and they are afraid that because of the coolness of the handheld platform, this game will also be dragged down.

But no matter what, it can be regarded as a strong alliance at any rate, with word-of-mouth and money at the same time, this trailer has successfully entered the field of vision of a large number of players.

...

As soon as the promotional video started, there was a black screen at first, and the logo of Shimmer Studio was released.

Then the screen turned and cut to the scene in the game.

Nearby, the grass is green; in the distance, the sun shines through the clouds and falls on the earth.

A stone temple full of ancient Chinese style stands on a wasteland. Under the sunlight, it seems to be shrouded in a layer of misty smoke, which is hard to see clearly.

The camera zooms in slowly, and under the breeze, the green grass sways gently like waves, the trees on both sides are also swaying, and the clouds in the sky seem to be moving slowly at a speed that is difficult to distinguish with the naked eye.

In the grass, butterflies are flying; under the trees, fallen leaves are falling.

The beautiful scene can be taken directly as a desktop.

The camera turned, the horse's hooves stepped across the small ditch, picked up the water flowers, and the picture vibrated slightly.

On the sparkling water, a long stone bridge that has existed for an unknown number of years spreads far to the intersection of the sea and the sky.

In the majestic temple, a young man in ancient Chinese costume was running. He ran from the shadows to the sun, and continued to run in the shadows ahead. When it was bright and dark, the clothes and textures on his body were clearly seen, and his movements were smooth and natural, which was not inferior to many people who used motion capture. s work.

A long stone bridge tens of meters high leads to the temple in the distance. In the corner of the picture, the protagonist on a horse looks so small.

As soon as the screen went black, there seemed to be some noise.

When the screen lights up again, the protagonist is holding a long sword and looking forward, while a giant dragon is rushing out of the sea and flying into the sky, with waves between its scales and claws.

A dragon chant resounded across the sky, and at the same time, the melody in the background also became tense!

Then, one after another, the guardians of the zodiac came on stage!

On the grassland, the midday horse is galloping, passing by like the wind;

In the vast desert, the snake was walking under the sandy seabed, and suddenly drilled out of the sand surface, covered by waves of yellow sand...

Different perspectives, different camera movements, and the positions of the protagonists are also different.

Sometimes I look up at the giant beast's feet, sometimes I climb on the giant beast's body, or I have already climbed to the top of the monster's head, and I have raised my sword to stab the giant beast's weak point!

But without exception, these shots all highlight the size of the guardian of the zodiac and the smallness of the protagonist Xinglan!

In the end, the moment Xinglan's long sword pierced the seal on the guardian's head, the screen turned black again, and the title of the game appeared.

"Zodiac Guardians", the English name is "Zodiac Guardians"!

Then there is a line of fine print: coming soon, on May 25th, worldwide sale!

Thanks to Moya Technology, Shimmer Studios used the slogan "Global Release" for the first time.

In fact, this time the game has indeed prepared a bilingual version in Chinese and English. After all, there are not many copywriting in the game. Find a translation team to translate it, and then dub it in Chinese and English. It doesn't take much.

Moa Technology originally wanted to use this game to develop some western markets, and it is imperative to prepare a bilingual version.

However, there are some small problems in the translation.

"Zodiac" is a proprietary concept in China. It is generally translated into "Chinese Zodiac" in English. Zodiac means "zodiac sign" or "zodiac belt", that is, the bunch of Aries, Taurus, and Gemini. constellation.

However, if the game is translated into Chinese Zodiac Guardians, it will be very bloated and redundant. So simply call it "Zodiac Guardians". As for whether there will be ambiguity among Western players, it's up to you. Anyway, I just took this opportunity to popularize the traditional concept of "Zodiac" for them.

...

As soon as this promotional video came out, it immediately aroused heated discussions among a large number of players!

"I'm going, the picture is so good? Can the screen run to such a limit on the handheld? Could it be that the last sentence 'the promotional picture does not represent the final quality' sent us away?"

"This art style looks really comfortable, and it's still Chinese style."

"Action game, and what are these bosses, they look so big!"

"After a brief look at the game introduction, it seems to be about defeating the guardian statues of the twelve zodiac signs. In other words, the protagonist wants to fight these big guys one by one?"

"Then what to do, this isn't a pedicure anymore, it's a toenail!"

"I don't know, but looking at the effect of the promotional video, it's really good, and I feel itchy."

"Wake up, the price of the game is 150, but you still need to spend 2000 to buy a handheld."

"I'll tell you if I've already bought a handheld... It's been a week of dust. Fortunately, there are new games, otherwise I would have considered selling second-hand!"

"Okay, then you can try poison first, and I'll think about it later if it's fun."

"This time it seems to be exclusive for a limited time, it's okay, I'll be playing with the PC version after three months!"

In fact, many players didn’t care about the new game of Shimmer Studios at all before, and they didn’t have any special expectations for the new game of this handheld, but after seeing this promotional video, their enthusiasm for the game was suddenly aroused !

This promotional video focuses on three aspects, namely picture quality, world view, and boss battle!

These three aspects are all the highlights of "Guardian of the Zodiac", and they are also not available in games currently on the market.

In terms of graphics, although the graphics of "Guardian of the Zodiac" still have a certain gap with some of the top 3A masterpieces, but considering the graphics of the handheld, it is already considered the top level, and it is on par with "Dark Dawn". After all, the handheld screen is so big, even if it is displayed in 4K, many people can’t see the difference from 2K.

And its world view has been improved on the basis of traditional Chinese culture. It not only promotes traditional culture, but also does not collide with other Chinese games. It looks very fresh.

In terms of boss battles, players are very much looking forward to how such a small protagonist will fight a giant beast that is a hundred times his size. This aspect also leaves enough suspense.

Many players' expectations for this game were really aroused, and they all said: Moya Technology, you are a scam, you were tricked into buying your handheld last time, and it was originally to block you, but now For the sake of Shimmer Studios, forgive you once, why don't you hurry up and sell the game! !
