Nintendo and Levi’s Denim Collection Revealed
As you can see in the tweet, the overalls feature the signature gold coins from the Mario series of games while the other pieces of clothing, like the pants, shorts, and jackets feature basically all of the Mushroom Kingdom including Yoshi, Toad, Wario, Luigi, Bowser, Boo, a Koopa Troopa and more. [ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/2017/11/12/this-custom-super-mario-odyssey-amiibo-is-insanely-realistic"] There's also a denim jacket featuring the words "Super Mario" on it surrounded by a few familiar icons from the games. The person wearing the denim jacket is wearing a red jacket as well, but what's shown in the picture doesn't indicate that the red jacket has anything to do with Mario. It could just be a red jacket to mimic the main color of Mario's outfit, or it could turn out to be something to do with the collaboration. There's no word on how much these articles of clothing from Levi's will cost. The collaboration is coming on April 1. [widget path="global/article/imagegallery" parameters="albumSlug=every-ign-super-mario-review-ever&captions=true"] The collaboration is coming soon but in the meantime, check out some of the other Mario-themed things that have happened on the Jump Man's big day. LEGO seems to be teasing some kind of Mario collaboration that's forthcoming.

Here’s Why Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker’s Original Opening Scene Was Cut
The cut scene, featuring The Eye of The Webbish Bog, was recently detailed in an excerpt from The Rise of Skywalker novelization, wherein Kylo Ren encounters the strange creature protecting the Sith Wayfinder before acquiring the device on his quest to find Exegol – which provides further context for Ren's on-screen confrontation with the Alazmec. [widget path="global/article/imagegallery" parameters="albumSlug=the-mandalorian-the-best-aliens-weapons-and-tech&captions=true"] Scanlan, however, is holding on to the hope that the "fully practical" spider-like being might be brought back out of the creature shop for a future adventure in the galaxy far, far away, as he admitted that he would like to see the character revisited in the Disney+ series The Mandalorian. "I hope that we can maybe bring that back in some way shape or form on the TV series [The Mandalorian] or that we can revisit that character in some way because it was a haunting image and a very unusual image," he told the outlet. "But one which I think was incredibly Star Wars. So yeah, somewhere there's footage of that." [ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/2020/01/03/the-mandalorian-season-1-review"] Unfortunately, it might be some time before we get a proper look at the Mustafar-monster-dweller, as there hasn't been any indication of deleted scenes being included on the bonus features of The Rise of Skywalker's digital and home releases. Plus, The Mandalorian Season 2 recently wrapped production without any mention of the Webbish Bog, which is probably for the best as adorable Baby Yoda might have mistaken its tentacles for those of an edible amphibian.

Panzer Dragoon VR Game Announced
A new Panzer Dragoon VR game has been announced today to celebrate 25 years since the first game in the series came out in Japan. This new game reimagines and combines the Sega Saturn trilogy.
It's being made by Japanese game studio Wildman Inc. under the working title Panzer Dragoon Voyage Record. It completely reworks - not remakes - Panzer Dragoon, Panzer Dragoon Zwei, and Panzer Dragoon Saga with new graphics for modern VR headsets.
Sorry, this is not a full VR remake. But you will meet Blue Dragon (TYPE-01), Lagi, Prototype Dragon(TYPE-02), Guardian Dragon, Atolm Dragon! https://t.co/kjvAD5SGVT
— Panzer Dragoon Voyage Record (@PanzerDragoonVR) March 10, 2020
You play as a dragon rider in first-person, armed with a handgun, and shoot enemies with the VR controller as you fly across skyscapes. It's been in development since 2014 and has even been on show at some game events between then and now. When shown the game is at events, players sit on a rodeo seat that emulates the feeling of being sat on a dragon as it flaps as it wings, while a fan blows wind at their face.
This VR game is different to the Panzer Dragoon remake for Nintendo Switch that was announced during a Nintendo Direct in 2019 as that's being made by another studio.
The original Panzer Dragoon trilogy of games came out for the Sega Saturn in 1995, 1996, and 1998. The first two are rail-shooters that have you fighting against a dark dragon in the first game, and an airship in the second game, which is actually a prequel.
[ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/2015/09/26/history-of-awesome-sega-saturn"]
The third game dropped the on-rails nature of the previous two games as it was an RPG complete with random encounters. It allowed for free exploration for the first time in the series, even on foot, while battles were a mix of turn-based and real-time elements.
Exactly which VR headsets Panzer Dragoon Voyage Record will be available on hasn't been confirmed yet. It doesn't have a firm release date either, but it should be out before March 2021, hopefully sooner.
