Tommy François, Ubisoft's vice-president of editorial and creative services, has left the company after allegations of harassment and sexual misconduct. The departure of the long-serving executive, who had previously been placed on administrative leave, was first reported by Business Insider's Samuel Horti. When asked for comment by IGN, an Ubisoft spokesperson replied with, “Tommy François has left the company, effective immediately.” Business Insider reports that CEO Yves Guillemot told Ubisoft employees about François' departure last week. François' role saw him steering the creative direction of the company's franchises, including Assassin's Creed, Far Cry and Watch Dogs. [ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/2020/07/21/multiple-assassins-creed-games-reportedly-scrapped-or-minimised-female-lead-roles-before-release-ign-news"] François is far from the onlu Ubisoft executive to leave the company in recent weeks. After being wracked with scandals, the French developer/publisher has seen Ashraf Ismail, Maxime Béland, Serge Hascoët, Tannis Mallat, and Cécile Cornet all step down from their senior roles following allegations of toxic behaviour, sexual misconduct, and mishandling of employee reports about abuse at the company. Yves Guillemot has promised "major changes" to the company following numerous and ongoing reports of harassment and misconduct among employees across Ubsoft's studios.

A recipe from The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild has accidentally appeared in a historical fiction novel, most likely due to a Google search from the book's author. The Traveller At The Gates of Wisdom is the latest novel from Irish author John Boyne, who you may know from his most famous work, The Boy In the Striped Pyjamas, which was adapted into a movie in 2008. A picture of a page from the novel surfaced on Reddit over the weekend, and the story was turned into a Twitter thread by writer Dana Schwartz.

OKAY. This is a thread, but it’s worth it I promise.

On Reddit today, user u/NoNoNo_OhOhOh posted a page from acclaimed Irish novelist John Boyne’s latest book, ‘The Traveller At the Gates of Wisdom. Note the ingredients. pic.twitter.com/4RTgZxtUT7 — Dana Schwartz (@DanaSchwartzzz) August 3, 2020

As you can see in the embedded tweet above, as Boyne writes about dyes used in dressmaking, he mentions ingredients such as Octorok Eyeball, Keese Wing, "the tail of the red lizalfos and four Hylian shrooms." Now where have we heard that before... As pointed out by Schwartz, it appears that Boyne has googled "ingredients red dye clothes" and stumbled upon Polygon's "How to dye your clothes and armor in Breath of the Wild" guide. If you replicate this yourself, you can see that the first ingredients mentioned for this Google search relate to in-game recipes from Breath of the Wild, which is where Boyne appears to have sourced his information from. [ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/2017/03/25/the-very-best-recipes-for-combat-stamina-and-even-rupees-zelda-breath-of-the-wild"] Boyne responded to Schwartz's thread in jest, noting that he will be "telling this anecdote on stage for many years to come." Boyne later replied to Schwartz noting that he won't be editing it in future revisions of the novel. "I don't remember but I must have just googled it," Boyne added. "Hey, sometimes you just gotta throw your hands up and say "yup! My bad!" Boyne might be able to source a few new recipes when The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild 2 arrives - although we still don't know when that will be.

No More Heroes has been rated for Nintendo Switch by the Taiwan Digital Game Rating Committee, potentially signalling a new release for the 2008 cult classic game. As spotted by Gematsu, a listing for Marvelous Inc's No More Heroes was found on the rating board's website, with 'Switch' listed as the game's platform. In a 2018 interview with Nintendeal, game director Suda 51 teased that he had been "talking with Marvelous" about potential Switch ports for No More Heroes and its 2010 sequel, Desperate Struggle. The game was previously ported to PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 in 2011 with the title No More Heroes: Heroes' Paradise. You can check out our review of the port here, where we said that, "for all of you who never played it the first time around, go get Heroes' Paradise. Seriously, like, now." [ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/2019/12/13/no-more-heroes-3-the-return-trailer"] For those who haven't played, No More Heroes is a surreal mix of GTA open world antics and hack 'n' slash combat. We reviewed No More Heroes back in 2008 upon its initial Wii release, awarding the game a 7.8 and praising its "snappy combat, hilarious characters" and "cinematic battles." We also included the game in our video running through the 12 weirdest video game mechanics. The third mainline game in the series, No More Heroes 3, is scheduled to release at some point in 2020 for Nintendo Switch. You can check out the first gameplay reveal of No More Heroes 3 here, though watch out for Suda51's head blocking the trailer...

Warframe's third open world, Heart of Deimos, will be added to the game on all platforms on August 25, 2020, and brings with it a brand new way to customize your Warframe in the Helminth Chrysalis System, Necromechs, and much more. Revealed at TennoCon 2020, Deimos' open world features a hauntingly-beautiful landscape that has been overrun by Infested enemies, the dark Entrati, and more "sights unseen in ever-changing underground cave networks." Players will also be able to "harness the power of the Void" with the community-designed Xaku, which also happens to be the second-ever Warframe to be "designed by the Tenno."

Watch the 30-minute demo for Heart of Deimos.

Traverse an infested open world Meet the Entrati, the dark inhabitants of Deimos Harness the power of the Void with your own mech Arriving August 25 on all platforms: https://t.co/tqWP3JqKZ6 pic.twitter.com/QRILV6DS3F — WARFRAME (@PlayWarframe) August 2, 2020

Heart of Deimos will add more than just new Warframes, as players will be able to utilize new Necromechs that can be used in every open-world zone. These Necromechs are slower than a Warframe, but have a ton of firepower and defense. One of the bigger additions is the Hemlinth Chrysalis System, which allows players to feed the Helminth resources to unlock a new suite of abilities. The Helminth can also consume a whole Warframe to extract an ability to infuse into another. The Heart of Deimos will also bring with it a new player experience that offers a better tutorial and introduction into the world of Warframe. [ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/2020/07/27/warframe-heart-of-deimos-teaser-trailer"] As reported by Polygon, Deimos, which is the second moon of Mars, is smaller but more dense than Orb Vallis and Plains of Eidolon's open zones. There is also no standard day night cycle, yet "two giant worms are battling back and forth for dominance. One worm, a striking orange fellow, signifies that waves of Infested will attack. But each day, the blue worm will triumph, and the planet will become a more peaceful place for a time." Warframe, which made our list of the Top 10 Free-to-Play Games on Steam, will be released on Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5, although no release date has been given.

Last month, Wonder Woman/Wonder Woman 1984 director Patty Jenkins explained that she'd "hit the pause button" on development for a third Wonder Woman film so that she could make sure she was "absorbing whatever the result of this pandemic is." “We’re not starting to work on that movie right away,” Jenkins had said. “I’m hoping to do this Amazon movie before we do the third Wonder Woman. And I may not do either of them. You never know what will happen in this world, you know?" Now, in a recent interview with Geek, a German publication (translated and tweeted out by @DCMovieNews2), Jenkins revealed that Wonder Woman 3 will most likely be her final go at the character. [widget path="global/article/imagegallery" parameters="albumSlug=maxwell-lord-and-his-connection-to-wonder-woman-explained&captions=true"] "[Wonder Woman 1984] gave me a chance to do a lot of things that I couldn't accommodate in the first movie." Jenkins shared. "I was so happy to tell the Wonder Woman origin story. It was almost her birth, but we really haven't seen what she is capable of. It is exciting for me to show her at the peak of her strength. But it is also very important that she fights an internal struggle: she is a Goddess and tries to help humanity. She is not only someone who fights evil, she tries to show bad people how to improve. It's an interesting dilemma." "The next one is probably my last Wonder Woman movie," Jenkins continued, "so I have to put everything I want to show there. We have to think carefully." [ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/2018/06/18/cheetah-explained-who-is-the-wonder-woman-1984-villain"] In related DC film news, Warner Bros. announced a DC-themed, online-only convention dubbed DC FanDome - a free "immersive virtual fan experience" that will be a 24-hour-long event held on August 22. Virtual panels will feature interviews from the cast and creators of many current and upcoming DC projects, including Wonder Woman 1984, The Batman, The Suicide Squad, Black Adam, and more.
