IGN UK Podcast #559: The Manic Marsupial and Jesse's Voice Changer

-
The manic marsupial, AKA Crash Bandicoot is back, and because he forgot to press record the first time; so is Dale with a second go at explaining all his thoughts on the game. Jesse is also on and has been playing a ton of Star Wars: Squadrons. In other news, he also has a new voice changer toy that distracts us for a good 30 seconds too. Cardy rounds off the trio by telling us all about his early thoughts of the Mafia Remaster and we also have an extremely tight round of The Endless Search that needs an action replay to decide a winner. It's tense stuff. Remember, if you want to get in touch with the podcast, please do: ign_ukfeedback@ign.com.

Baldur's Gate 3 is a game full of intricate detail. With so many dialogue options, characters, classes, and quests, everyone's experience is a little bit different. Discoveries are around every corner, and the only thing seemingly separating you from success or tragedy is a dice roll. That being said, it's a lot easier to somewhat plot your destiny when you know where you're going. IGN's Baldur's Gate 3 interactive map can help guide you on your quest through Act 1, 2 and 3.

The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom Preloading Has Begun

-
The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom isn't out for another week, but it's now officially available for preloading. As of today, Nintendo Switch users who preordered Tears of the Kingdom digitally can now preload the game a week early as expected. Of course, it still won't be playable until the game officially unlocks, but preloading it now might help you jump back into the world of Hyrule a little bit earlier — as GameSpot pointed out, the file is 16.2GB. Some fans have reported difficulty with getting the preload to begin, but it appears there's a simple solution. According to Twitter user @PhantomxKairi, canceling the preorder and preordering again should prompt the preload to begin correctly. My digital version of Tears of the Kingdom is now preloading on my Switch! For those who don't see the preload yet (I used a NSO game voucher) cancel the preorder and preorder again, download will pop up! Can't wait for May 12th <3 #Zelda #ZeldaTearsofth

First Look: Concept Art for Monster Hunter Rise's Somnacanth and Aknosom Weapons and Armor

-

In addition to today’s IGN FIRST feature, where Monster Hunter Rise Director Yasunori Ichinose explains how the Nintendo Switch entry will make the series even more approachable to new players, we have one more surprise for you! We are proud to exclusively reveal some of the concept art for Rise’s Somnacanth and Aknosom weapons and armor. Check them out in the gallery below!

[widget path="global/article/imagegallery" parameters="albumSlug=monster-hunter-rise-concept-art-somnacanth-and-aknosom-armor-weapons&captions=true"]

There is an obvious Japan-inspired setting for home base Kamura Village and the mission maps, while many of the new monsters are inspired by Yokai, or ghosts and spirits from Japanese folklore. However, Ichinose tells us that the game’s equipment design has also been inspired by a wide range of cultures outside of Japan too.

Take for example the Aknosom armor and helmet, whose designs were obviously derived from Western knights. However, Ichinose tells us that the people of Kamura Village have implemented their own culture into this armor as well. Take a close look, and you might notice that the material of the armor is textured like folded origami paper, blending Western design with Japanese traditional textiles.

The Somnacanth armor was inspired by Middle-Eastern fortune-tellers and assassins. The hood creates a mysterious atmosphere, and Ichinose explains that the glowing blue parts are a key feature of the Somnacanth’s design.

Ichinose also tells us that while weapons returning from World will follow the designs from that game, all of the ones based on new monster materials have been designed individually so that they stand apart more than before.
