MULTICROSS-PLATFORM MULTIPLAYER GAMING STARTS WITH A BANG!
SATURDAY 12th NOVEMBER – MULTICROSS-PLATFORM MULTIPLAYER GAMING STARTS WITH A BANG!
BANG! THE OFFICIAL VIDEOGAME – THE WORLDS FIRST FULLY MULTICROSS-PLATFORM MULTIPLAYER GAME
On Saturday 12th November, the Multicross-platform servers will be switched on, and players around the World will be able to play BANG! together across Apple iPhone, iPad, iPod Touch, Atom Netbook and PC for the first time.
BANG!, the Spaghetti Western style card-based board game by publisher DVGiochi, has already sold over 600,000 copies worldwide. Families have enjoyed the quick-draw card game for many years. Now with BANG! and its multicross-platform multiplayer feature, from production company Palzoun and developer SpinVector, this experience has been taken outside of the home, enabling friends and families to play together at any time, regardless of the handset, computer or tablet they own.
WIRED magazine said about BANG!; “Throughout it all Bang! remained a very enjoyable game. In fact, having been reminded how good it was, I ended up inviting some friends around to play the card game again next week. There are not many videogames that do that.”
Sunday Times said; “For the first time in online gaming, up to five players can play on any combination of PCs, iPhones, iPads and iPod Touches. Bang! is big in continental Europe and deserves to be better known here. It’s a clever little strategy game in which players have to work out which of their opponents are outlaws and which are the good guys.”
BANG! The Official Videogame is available worldwide via the iTunes AppStore, Intel AppUp (Atom Netbook) and direct from www.bangvideogame.com.

SABATO 12 NOVEMBRE – PARTE CON UN BANG! LA TECNOLOGIA MULTICROSS MULTIPLAYER ONLINE.
BANG! THE OFFICIAL VIDEOGAME – IL PRIMO VERO MULTICROSS MULTIPLAYER ONLINE.
Si accenderanno sabato 12 novembre i nuovi server dotati di tecnologia multicross: per la prima volta nella storia dei videogiochi sarà permesso ai giocatori da tutto il mondo di partecipare a partite online tra piattaforme diverse, a partire da Apple iPhone, iPad, iPod Touch, Atom Netbook e PC.
BANG! è un successo certificato da ormai oltre 600.000 copie vendute nel mondo: il board-game pubblicato dall’editore dVGiochi combina la tattica di un gioco di carte con le interazioni di un parlor game, proiettando i giocatori in una pura esperienza Spaghetti-Western.
L’innovativa tecnologia Multicross del videogioco ufficiale – nato dalla co-produzione tra la game production Palzoun e la software house SpinVector - porterà le famose “sfide all’ultima pallottola” fuori dal consueto tavolo casalingo, consentendo ad amici e famiglie di giocare insieme sempre e ovunque, indipendentemente dai dispositivi utilizzati.
WIRED magazine ha scritto: “BANG! è davvero un bel gioco. E avendo ricordato grazie alla sua versione elettronica quanto lo sia, ho finito per invitare alcuni amici per giocare insieme la prossima settimana. Non ci sono molti videogiochi che spingano a fare una cosa del genere”.
Il Sunday Times (UK) ha scritto: “Per la prima volta nel panorama dei giochi online, fino a cinque giocatori diversi possono giocare tra loro attraverso qualunque combinazione di PC, iPhone, iPad e iPod Touch. BANG! è già un successo nell’ Europa continentale e merita di essere conosciuto meglio anche qui da noi. È un piccolo e intelligente gioco di strategia nel quale i giocatori devono scoprire tra i loro avversari chi appartiene ai cattivi e chi ai buoni”.
BANG! The Official Videogame è disponibile in tutto il mondo via iTunes AppStore, Intel AppUp (Atom Netbook) e direttamente dal sito www.bangvideogame.com.
BANG! The world’s first Multicross-Platform Multiplayer game launches saturday 12th November!
On Saturday 12th November, Bang! The Official Videogame will see its full multicross-platform multiplayer go live. Players with Apple iPhone, iPad, Atom Netbook and PC will, for the very first time, be able to play the same multiplayer game together.
Imagine the scene – you’re playing games on your PC. Your brother is on holiday playing games on his Apple iPad.
Your best friend is travelling playing games on their Apple iPhone and your Mum is playing games on her Netbook. Everyone is playing, but not together. Multiplayer games have always been specific to a certain platform or cross-platform between a single console and PC, but now this is no longer the case – BANG! has blown this wide open!
The original ‘Spaghetti Western’ card-based board game from publisher dVGiochi is already a massive success selling over 600,000 copies worldwide. BANG! The Official Videogame is a co-operative venture between Italian production company Palzoun and videogame developer SpinVector.
Their focus has been to develop a unique multicross-platform multiplayer, within a game native to each platform, which allows users to play this exciting interactive board game together collectively. With over 200,000 players already enjoying BANG!, the multicross-platform multiplayer looks set to intensify player’s fun and engagement.
Daniele Azara, Production Director of Palzoun said, “We wanted to recreate the experience of playing a card game around a table and developing the game for Apple iPhone, iPad, Netbook and PC, we chose convenient gaming platforms with the widest mainstream attraction. The multicross-platform multiplayer feature of BANG! means that, for the first time, players who each own these standalone platforms will be able to play the same game together.”
Players who have already purchased BANG! will receive the feature for free, and new customers can purchase the game feature complete from Saturday 12th November.
Daniele continues; “The term ‘multicross-platform multiplayer’ is a new but it is a familiar definition which links the well-known concepts of ‘multi-format’ with ‘cross-platform’ functionality. BANG! is a fantastic board game which has shown its massive mainstream appeal and with the combination of great gameplay and multicross-platform multiplayer, we look forward to continuing this success with the videogame version.”
BANG! The Official Videogame is available worldwide via the iTunes AppStore, Intel AppUp (Atom Netbook) and direct from www.bangvideogame.com.
Note to Journalists: Promo codes for Apple iPhone, iPad, Netbook and PC are available now for review.

BANG! TECNOLOGIA MULTICROSS MULTIPLAYER AL VIA SABATO 12 NOVEMBRE!
L’appuntamento per il lancio ufficiale della giocabilità Multicross di BANG! è per sabato 12 novembre: i giocatori in possesso delle versioni – già multiplayer – iPhone, iPad [HD], Atom Netbook e PC potranno per la prima volta giocare insieme tra le diverse piattaforme.
Lo scenario finora è stato questo: voi state giocando dal vostro PC. Vostro fratello in vacanza sta giocando dal suo iPad. Il vostro migliore amico, in viaggio, sta giocando dal suo iPhone e vostra mamma gioca dal suo Netbook. Ciascuno di loro sta giocando: ma non insieme. I giochi multiplayer sono sempre stati pensati per una piattaforma specifica o per l’interazione tra PC e una singola console: BANG! e il Multicross aprono una nuova frontiera di gameplay.
Il gioco originale pubblicato dall’editore dVGiochi, un board-game in puro stile Spaghetti Western con tutta la strategia di un solido gioco di carte, è da tempo un grande successo forte di più 600.000 copie vendute in tutto il mondo. BANG! The Official Videogame è una co-produzione tra la game production company Palzoun e la software house SpinVector, entrambe italiane.
Il coronamento di questa collaborazione è l’arrivo del Multicross, tecnologia multiplayer nativa su ogni piattaforma, che consente agli utenti il gioco multiplayer contemporaneo tra tutti i dispositivi accolti dal Multicross.
Con oltre già più di 200.000 giocatori che hanno scelto BANG! The Official Videogame, la tecnologia Multicross non può che apprestarsi a moltiplicare il divertimento e le occasioni di sfida online.
Daniele Azara, Production Director of Palzoun è chiaro: “Volevamo ricreare la stessa esperienza di chi gioca intorno a un tavolo e sviluppare il gioco per iPhone, iPad, Netbook e PC è stata una scelta naturale: offrire le piattaforme di gioco con il più vasto potere di attrazione e coinvolgimento. La tecnologia Multicross di BANG! Regalerà ai giocatori di BANG!, per la prima volta, la possibilità di giocare dalle singole piattaforme stand-alone tutti quanti, insieme, le stesse partite”.
I giocatori che hanno già acquistato BANG! hanno ricevuto l’aggiornamento multiplayer, già abilitato Multicross, gratuitamente, e i nuovi giocatori potranno acquistare il gioco completo della nuova feature da sabato 12 novembre.
Daniele prosegue; “Il termine Multicross, che include ovviamente il multiplayer, è nuovo e allo stesso tempo suona familiare, perchè unisce il ben noto concetto di ‘multi-format’ con una funzionalità ‘cross-platform’. BANG! è un fantastico board-game che ha già dimostrato un massivo e consolidato appeal: con la combinazione di un grande gameplay e la nuova tecnologia Multicross ci auguriamo di proseguire questo successo con il videogioco ufficiale”.
BANG! The Official Videogame è disponibile in tutto il mondo via iTunes AppStore, Intel AppUp (Atom Netbook) e direttamente dal sito www.bangvideogame.com.
Nota per la Stampa: i Promocode per Apple iPhone, iPad, Netbook e PC sono da ora disponibili. Per ricevere i codici per tutte le piattaforme rilasciate, potete indirizzare le vostre richieste a Kristien Wendt: kristien@charactercomms.com
