Let’s get this party started! 

We’re here to celebrate Amplitude Studios: 11 years, 5 games, and an amazing community! Over the next few days, we’ll be adding more rewards to Games2gether for all of you to enjoy, hang out with you and our guests on Twitch, and even pose a couple of challenges to you! 



Speaking of challenges, like almost every year, we are holding another Community Challenge for the duration of Amplified: From now until Monday, January 24th, 7PM CET Wednesday, January 26th, 4PM CET, every match you start in Humankind, Endless Legend, or Endless Space 2 will count towards unlocking additional Humankind rewards for all players. The first reward is a set of player emblems inspired by African cultures, and further rewards will be revealed as we get closer to unlocking them.  The final two rewards in particular are quite interesting. All rewards unlocked in this community challenge will be added to the game when they are ready at a later date. 

EDIT: In appreciation for your support during Amplified, we have decided to extend the challenge until Wednesday, January 26th, 4PM CET.



In the meantime, we have several other rewards for you to enjoy: 

The beautiful Amplified keyart is available in various formats for use as a wallpaper, from your desktop to your phone or perhaps your social media banners. This time, we even have an animated version for your phone! 

You can also unlock a new Cultural Wonder for Humankind right now, the Great Zimbabwe! To claim it, you need to subscribe to the Amplitude newsletter (or already be subscribed), then go to your rewards page and redeem this reward to add this wonder to your game. Note that if you are not subscribed to the newsletter, this reward will not be visible on your rewards page.



Finally, and perhaps most exciting, we have a giveaway courtesy of our colleagues at Relic: Company of Heroes 2 for Steam! The ultimate WWII RTS platform, the base game gives you access to two classic multiplayer armies from the Eastern Front: the Red Army (SOV) and the Wehrmacht Ostheer (GER), as well as an epic single-player campaign that will familiarize you with the classic Company of Heroes gameplay experience. This offer is only valid while supplies last, though, so don’t sleep on it! 




That’s all for today, but come back tomorrow for Humankind Day, with news about the future of Humankind, community challenges, and more!
