nanoBITES 68

NanoBITES captures those small but important morsels of gaming information that otherwise might slip between the cracks.

ITEM! Certain Affinity’s pirate themed (and criminally underappreciated) Age of Booty is coming to iOS and Android devices. This excellent little real time strategy title is already available on XBLA, PSN and PC.

ITEM! It looks like you’ll have to wait a little longer for Rockstar’s take on the Max Payne franchise. Parent company Take-Two has revealed that the bullet (time) riddled action game will ship in May, rather than March as originally planned.

ITEM! Lightbox Interactive’s long awaited sequel to Warhawk is fast approaching. According to publisher Sony, the PS3 exclusive multiplayer epic Starhawk will arrive on store shelves in the second week of May.

ITEM! A new DLC pack is in the works for Paradox Interactive’s co-op romp, Magicka. The Other Side of the Coin will see players abandon their wizard’s robes and instead take on a range of villainous roles (vampire, necromancer, etc.)

ITEM! Sony has closed the developer responsible for Vita launch title Little Deviants, according to a report published by Develop. Bigbig Studios was also known for its work on PSP racer MotorStorm: Arctic Edge.
