Koch Media Group providing global publishing services for the unique genre mix

Ravenscourt, one of Koch Media’s global publishing units, teams up with Indie developer DESTINYbit for the upcoming dice-based city builder survival game Dice Legacy. The original idea creatively blends the best parts of different genres and creates its own distinct place, brought to life by the passion of a core team of only seven developers. Dice Legacy is set to be released digitally on Nintendo Switch as well PC Summer 2021 with Ravenscourt providing full global publishing support.

Dice Legacy will explore new directions that shape the future of digital tabletop games with its unique combination of management and dice chucking gameplay. The debut trailer gives viewers a first glimpse of the enigmatic ringworld and unique game mechanics. Watch as the ship lands on the shores of an uncharted continent and a first settlement takes root. The new land poses its own set of challenges that can be overcome by using the dice at hand or forging new, more powerful dice as well.

Gian Paolo Vernocchi, Founder of DESTINYbit says: “Dice Legacy is an incredibly innovative game and we’re excited to partner with Ravenscourt on our quest to bring our love for dice to the masses. We blended the best elements of survival city builders, roguelikes and board games to create a unique mix. We’re hoping that together with Ravenscourt we can bring our idea to a wider audience and hopefully kick the ball in a new direction for the industry and shape the future of digital tabletop style games.”

Dr. Klemens Kundratitz, Koch Media’s CEO states: “It’s not often that a game as unique as Dice Legacy comes along and therefore is a lovely addition to our Ravenscourt lineup. It’s fascinating to play a game that shows us the dice rolls that usually happen in the background and stays true to its tabletop roots.”

Henrik Jonsson, Executive Producer of Amplifier Game Invest, explains: “Dice Legacy is a perfect example of a game where the core mechanics stand out immediately. When we invested in DESTINYbit, we had played the game only in its rawest form, with just dice and a blue background. We knew the game was an absolutely unique creation and we are exceptionally proud to be partnering with Koch Media and the Ravenscourt publishing label to give Dice Legacy the multiplatform release it deserves.”

Evoplay has launched Caramelo Dog Lucky Run, a new crash-style instant win game themed around Brazilian street culture and the widely recognised “Caramelo Dog” reference.

The title follows Taco, a dog navigating a neighbourhood filled with obstacles. Players move step by step across roads as the multiplier increases, choosing to cash out or keep going.

Evoplay said the game uses randomised obstacle patterns so each round plays differently. Players can choose between four difficulty settings — Easy, Medium, Hard, and Hardcore — with higher difficulty increasing obstacle intensity and the multiplier.

Caramelo Dog Lucky Run also includes a cash-out function that can be triggered after Taco safely stops, plus customisable autoplay settings for stake preferences and stop conditions.

Ivan Kravchuk, CEO at Evoplay, said: “Caramelo Dog Lucky Run brings a completely fresh personality to our portfolio through its vibrant Brazilian-inspired setting and charming main character.

“Players in Brazil need games that feel familiar, authentic and culturally connected to them. When a player recognises something that reflects their everyday life and online culture, it creates a far deeper level of engagement than entertainment alone, and that is exactly what Caramelo does in this game.”

S8UL gaming creator and streamer Payal Dhare has partnered with OWND!, the Gen Z-focused fashion brand from Aditya Birla Fashion and Retail Limited, to launch a gaming-inspired fashion capsule called ‘Gamer Drop’. The companies describe it as India’s first female gamer-curated capsule. The collection will be available on OWND!’s website and in the brand’s stores across India.

According to the press release, ‘Gamer Drop’ includes menswear and womenswear pieces built around gaming culture and streetwear, positioned as a creator-led collection rather than conventional creator merchandise. The campaign leans on the growing overlap between gaming culture, creator communities, and youth fashion.

Marco Agnolin, Chief Executive Officer, OWND!. said, “We see gaming today as a powerful cultural force that is shaping how young consumers express themselves, communicate, and engage with fashion. As one of India’s biggest gamers, Payal Dhare represents this new generation perfectly through her authenticity, confidence, and deep connection with the gaming community. Her influence extends far beyond gaming content, making her an ideal face for our gaming collection. Through this collaboration, we aim to celebrate individuality and connect with India’s digitally native youth in a way that feels relevant, inclusive, and culture-driven.”

Payal Dhare aka Payal Gaming said, “Gaming today has become a culture and a form of self-expression for millions of young people across the country. That’s what makes this collaboration with OWND! so exciting for me. With this curation, I wanted to create something that genuinely reflects my vibe and the energy of my community. It’s stylish, comfortable, expressive – and made for people who want to own who they are.”

The release also points to India’s expanding creator economy. Citing a Boston Consulting Group report, it says India has nearly 2 to 2.5 million creators, with more than 60% of consumers exposed to creator-led content and over 30% of shoppers influenced by creators in purchase decisions.
