## Transcript

Hi everyone, I'm Dalian from Pinball Brothers. I'm delighted to introduce you to our new Queen 2.0 update. Our development team has worked really hard to bring you this update. It's absolutely packed with new features, new video and new sounds. One of the goals of the game is to complete Souls. There are 14 legendary Queen songs in the game, but to play Bohemian Rhapsody, four songs have to be completed. For every new ball, you can choose between starting a new song or continue a song you already started. Bohemian Rhapsody is a song divided into six stages. Each stage reflects a section of this immortal song. Is this the real life? Is this just fantasy? Caught in a landslide, no escape from reality. Open your eyes. The Scaramouche stage is an exciting multiball. How exciting depends on how well you did on the previous stages. Make sure to update your game, and thanks for watching. Thank you.
