Baldur’s Gate 3 Original Soundtrack Gets Vinyl Release

Gamemusic Records label is pleased to announce that pre-orders for the Baldur’s Gate 3 vinyl albums are now available in both Standard and Deluxe editions. Gamemusic Records team joined forces Larian Studios and the composer of the score, Borislav Slavov, to deliver this outstanding musical experience to you in a way that does justice to both the game and the soundtrack itself: all remastered for vinyl and full of new original artwork.

The Standard Edition includes three 12-inch vinyl discs (3x 180-gram LP) packed in a gatefold jacket with antistatic sleeves. Each side of the cover is decorated with meticulously designed artwork by Magdalena Katańska – a trusted, long-time associate of the label. The inside presents a stunning panoramic painting. Ripe with references to the world and characters from the game, it is a delight for fans of the game and its music alike. Discs are made in mix of black and purple, invoking the association to Mind Flayers – dreaded enemies from the Forgotten Realms universe.

The limited Deluxe Edition, available only during the pre-order campaign, changes the inner sleeves to six original paintings of Origin Characters, paying homage to beloved heroes from the game. Based on the idea of duality, each disc in this edition also presents a different mix of colours, all coherently representing the pairings, relations, and depth of those characters. Deluxe Edition is presented as a magnetic closure box set, resembling an ancient grimoire. A booklet featuring the piano score of one of the game’s famous tracks, as well as extended liner notes, is also included.

Preorders are available as of today via the Gamemusic Records Online Store and Larian Merch Store. The Standard Edition will remain available for sale, with the limited Deluxe Edition being available exclusively during the pre-order period. The worldwide shipping of both versions is estimated to begin in the Summer of 2024. Previous releases from Gamemusic Records (such as Heroes of Might & Magic III OST or Frostpunk Complete OST) were praised among game fans and audiophiles alike, all selling out quickly and becoming a prized collector’s item – also thanks to careful mastering of the audio material by the label’s seasoned sound engineer, Matthias Adloff, who worked also on this album.

AVATAR: The Last Airbender Coming to ROBLOX

Paramount Game Studios, part of Paramount, a leading global media, streaming and entertainment company, is bringing a battleground-style experience to the Roblox platform this summer based on Nickelodeon’s Avatar: The Last Airbender franchise. The first official Avatar experience on the platform is developed by Looty Games, an established Roblox developer studio and veteran of the battlegrounds genre, as part of the Roblox Creator Fund, which sets out to accelerate projects with innovative gameplay, ambitious visual designs, and creative ideas that are unlike anything else on the platform.

Bringing the iconic series’ “bending” abilities to the battlegrounds genre, fans can, for the first time ever, create their own bender, master their element, and compete in the Avatarverse. Within an arena environment that will be fast paced, frenetic and full of intense energy, bending takes the experience to the next level as users employ water, earth, fire and air moves rooted in traditional martial arts.

“Avatar: The Last Airbender has created a rich universe that generations of fans want to immerse themselves in, and Roblox allows users to have that experience,” said Doug Rosen, SVP, Games and Emerging Media, Paramount. “We’re thrilled to be able to work with Looty Games and Roblox to deepen fans’ connection to the franchise in this virtual world.”

The game will launch Summer 2024 on Roblox, with an official title and more details to be revealed in the coming months.

Highway Patrol Expansion for Police Simulator: Patrol Officers Announced

Out of the city, onto the highway: In the course of PAX East starting this week, publisher astragon Entertainment and developer Aesir Interactive are pleased to announce the Highway Patrol Expansion for Police Simulator: Patrol Officers which will be available in Summer 2024 for PC, PlayStation®5, PlayStation®4, Xbox Series S|X and Xbox One with a new trailer!

Become a highway patrol officer

The Highway Patrol Expansion for Police Simulator: Patrol Officers extends the game map beyond Brighton’s borders, opening up driveways to the bustling Brighton highway district and introducing new tasks like high speed monitoring, cargo checks on trucks, and highway assistance. However, with the highways open, car thefts surge, leading to thrilling chases and tactical maneuvers. Equipped with the new spike strips and roadblocks, officers have even more tools to stop fleeing criminals which are particularly helpful when playing with two players in multiplayer mode. Additionally, when it comes to accidents on the highway, they must be ready to tackle fires at accident sites using fire extinguishers. To help them accomplish all these new tasks even better, the expansion includes two new vehicles: the new Interstate Police Vehicle ensures that officers can perform their duties with a touch of vintage flair, and the Endurance Police Vehicle is equipped with a heavy-duty device that officers can use to stop fleeing vehicles at full speed.

Playable version and showcase live stream at PAX East

During this year’s PAX East event from March 21 to 24 in Boston, US, visitors will have the exclusive opportunity to test the Highway Patrol Expansion before its official release at the astragon Entertainment booth (booth 16105)!

LEGO Unveils DUNGEONS & DRAGONS: Red Dragon’s Tale set

Today the LEGO Group unveils the LEGO® Ideas DUNGEONS & DRAGONS: Red Dragon’s Tale set, a fan-designed brick representation of the iconic table-top game. Released in the year DUNGEONS & DRAGONS turns 50, this is the first time the LEGO Group has developed a DUNGEONS & DRAGONS set and to do so they turned to their fans to create the design, via a challenge on the LEGO Ideas platform.

Based on a brief co-developed by the Wizards of the Coast team, over 600 LEGO fans submitted DUNGEONS & DRAGONS inspired designs, but the winner was 32-year-old Lucas Bolt (known as BoltBuilds) from Amsterdam who created his version of the game in LEGO bricks. Lucas then worked closely with LEGO Design team, to develop the unique setting represented in the final set. In addition, the Wizards of the Coast team developed a bespoke adventure for the set.

The 3,745-piece set is incredibly detailed featuring a tavern with a removable roof, so you can see inside to the upper level. The set also features a dungeon and a tower. Also included are six LEGO minifigures – Orc Rogue, Gnome Fighter, Elf Wizard and Dwarf Cleric, plus brick-built monsters, such as a beholder, an owlbear and a displacer beast. Also featured is the giant Cinderhowl red dragon that builders can wrap around the tower.

The LEGO Group also turned to their fan community on the LEGO Ideas platform, giving them a chance to design the cover of the set’s building instructions. The winning design by Chris Yu features an epic battle using techniques to create depth in the image while showcasing good against evil centered around the iconic 20-sided die that’s set to determine the outcome. Chris’ design was a celebration of the game’s core values of collaboration, creativity, and adventure.

In celebration of the new set, the LEGO Group invited well-known DUNGEONS & DRAGONS players to LEGO House for an epic game night. Anjali Bhimani took the chair as the Dungeon Master and was joined by Luis Carazo and Ginny Di, as well as fan designer Lucas and LEGO Designer Jordan Scott, who all participated in an epic adventure on a very special custom-made LEGO DUNGEONS & DRAGONS table. Recorded live, fans can now watch all the action when the game premieres on LEGO.com/DnD and the DUNGEONS & DRAGONS YouTube and Twitch channels on April 6 at 12:00 EDT.

Fans can also get a specially created DUNGEONS & DRAGONS adventure book, created in partnership by Wizards of the Coast and the LEGO Group, to offer a completely new and unique play experience. Available for LEGO Insiders as a free digital download, or as a paperback book for 2,700 Insider points (whilst stocks last). The book is also available at D&D Beyond along with character sheets, a digital dice and more.

Commenting on his inspiration for the design, Lucas, said, “The DUNGEONS & DRAGONS theme combined with my love of history, fantasy and making games, inspired me to create a playable layout with different challenges and routes to explore. I had so much fun designing this piece, and it is a real privilege seeing my design developed into a detailed LEGO set to celebrate 50 years of the iconic game.”

In relation to bringing Lucas’ design to life, LEGO Design Manager, Jordan Scott, said “Lucas’ design perfectly captured the storytelling excitement of any DUNGEONS & DRAGONS game. Working with the Wizards of the Coast team, we were able to build on his design to co create a truly authentic DUNGEONS & DRAGONS experience full of details that will excite fans through the building process and beyond.”

“LEGO bricks and DUNGEONS & DRAGONS have been used by fans to generate stories and build adventures for so long that bringing these two creative brands together during our 50th Anniversary felt like a no-brainer,” said Dan Rawson, Global Play Lead on DUNGEONS & DRAGONS and RPGs. “With the amazing LEGO Ideas set designed by Lucas Bolt, the adventure package available on D&D Beyond, and the LEGO Minifigure series coming this fall, fans will have so many new sparks of imagination available to enjoy creating fantasy stories together with friends and family.”

The LEGO Ideas DUNGEONS & DRAGONS: Red Dragon’s Tale set is available for LEGO Insiders beginning April 1, 2024 via LEGO Stores and LEGO.com/DnD and for all from April 4, 2024 priced at $359.99.

The DUNGEONS & DRAGONS adventure book will also be available from April 1 at LEGO.com/DND and D&D Beyond (along with character sheets, a digital dice and more). The LEGO DUNGEONS & DRAGONS Minifigure series will launch in September 2024.

Squirrel with a Gun – Announcement Trailer

Maximum Entertainment and Dee Dee Creations today revealed during The MIX’s Spring Games Showcase 2024 a new Squirrel with a Gun trailer that showcases the intricate lives of squirrels: finding nice trees to live in, foraging nuts to snack on, and absolutely decimating the humans that have done them wrong with an array of firearms. They also like collecting acorns. This chaotic little rodent will be making its home on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S and PC later this year: https://store.steampowered.com/app/2067050/Squirrel_with_a_Gun/

In Squirrel with a Gun, you’ll find yourself starting out as nothing but a rodent with a dream. However, once equipped with one of the many firearms squirrels so often encounter in nature, you’ll use your weapon to take on the agents that are hunting you down. You may be less than a foot tall, but you can wreak havoc with the best of them.

This squirrel has more than one trick, though. Need to make a quick escape? Fire off your weapon and use the recoil to propel yourself to safety. With seven different firearms to collect, RC cars to steal and mayhem to start, the world is your acorn in Squirrel with a Gun. Cause chaos, forage nuts, interrupt picnics, steal cake and more to prove you’re one rodent that should not be trifled with.

Squirrel with a Gun will be present at MIX’s on-site GDC press event Monday, March 18 from 8-11pm at Terra Gallery, 511 Harrison Street, San Francisco, CA.

To keep up with the Squirrel with a Gun’s development, follow @MaximumEntmt and @QuiteDan on X.
