A través del Blog de PlayStation, Sony Interactive Entertainment y el desarrollador Naughty Dog anunciaron el lanzamiento de una actualización gratuita para The Last of Us Part II Remastered que permite a los jugadores experimentar la historia cronológicamente.

«Está siendo un momento muy emocionante para nosotros en Naughty Dog, sobre todo porque les hemos dado la bienvenida a la franquicia a tantos fans antiguos y nuevos de The Last of Us. Para celebrar todo su apoyo, les tenemos una sorpresa en forma de actualización gratuita que llega hoy a The Last of Us Parte II Remastered.

Esta actualización descargable está disponible para los jugadores de PlayStation 5 y PC, y presenta una nueva forma de jugar la historia de The Last of Us Parte II como nunca antes: cronológicamente.

Los que ya hayan jugado sabrán que la historia se cuenta de forma no lineal mientras las motivaciones, las revelaciones y los desafíos emocionales de Ellie y Abby se desarrollan a través de una miríada de flashbacks y tramas actuales. Si bien esta estructura es deliberada y se basa en la forma en la que nuestro estudio quería que los temas y los lazos narrativos de la segunda parte impactaran a los jugadores, siempre nos hemos preguntado cómo sería vivir esta historia de forma cronológica. Y ahora, por fin, tenemos una respuesta.

A través del nuevo modo cronológico, creemos que los jugadores obtendrán una perspectiva aún más profunda de la narrativa de la parte II. Los jugadores podrán ver, por ejemplo, cómo el hecho de que a Ellie le regalen una guitarra desemboca en que aprenda a tocar, mientras que el viaje por Seattle mostrará los fascinantes paralelismos entre los recorridos entrecruzados de Ellie y Abby. Verán lo cerca que están de cruzarse, cómo sus acciones repercuten la una en la otra y mucho más.

No ha sido tarea fácil juntar la historia de The Last of Us Parte II de forma cronológica, teniendo en cuenta la meticulosa elaboración de la historia de la segunda parte. Agradecemos a los desarrolladores tanto de Naughty Dog como a nuestros socios de Nixxes por conseguir que el modo cronológico fuera lo más fluido posible. Y, si bien recomendamos a los jugadores que aún no conozcan el juego que vivan la historia de la parte II tal y como se desarrolló originalmente, el arduo trabajo del equipo dio sus frutos con una nueva y fascinante forma de disfrutar de este capítulo.

También queríamos recompensar a los jugadores por sumarse a este nuevo y transformador enfoque de nuestra historia. Además de los nuevos trofeos que se otorgan por completar la experiencia narrativa en orden cronológico, también se desbloquearán dos nuevos aspectos, quizá sorprendentemente familiares…

Sí, así es, juega como Joel vestido como Nathan Drake y Tommy, como Sam Drake, en Sin retorno. Especialmente ahora que celebramos el 40.º aniversario de Naughty Dog este año, nos encanta tener la oportunidad de destacar y compartir la historia de nuestro estudio, el cual amamos tanto como sabemos que tú lo haces. Estos aspectos se desbloquearán al completar la historia en modo cronológico y se podrán usar en el emocionante modo de supervivencia estilo roguelike en Sin retorno, Parte II Remastered.

Una nueva actualización para The Last of Us Parte II Remastered está disponible hoy tanto en PS5 (con el parche 2.1.0*) como en PC por Steam y la Epic Games Store (con el parche 1.5**). Esta actualización presenta el modo cronológico, así como una serie de correcciones de errores y mejoras de rendimiento adicionales.

Aquí en Naughty Dog estamos profundamente agradecidos por todo el amor y apoyo que hemos visto de los fans de The Last of Us estos últimos meses. Ha sido un placer celebrar este momento con todos ustedes, desde el lanzamiento de The Last of Us Parte II Remastered en PC, pasando por The Last of Us Complete en PlayStation 5, hasta ver sus reacciones semanales de la segunda temporada de la serie de televisión.»

Además, Sony contará con la experiencia de Nixxes Software y Iron Galaxy para incorporarle a The Last of Us Part II Remastered un montón de características para PC que mejoran la funcionalidad y así darle vida a las bellas montañas nevadas de Jackson, Wyoming y las calles empapadas por al lluvia de Seattle, Washington.

Esta versión del juego es compatible con:

Nuevo contenido de Sin Retorno

Además, en el lanzamiento de The Last of Us Part II Remastered para PC también habrá un montón de nuevo contenido para Sin retorno, el modo de juego favorito de nuestros fans. También incorporaremos en el modo a Bill y Marlene, personajes de The Last of Us Part I.

Como sucede con cada combatiente de Sin retorno, estos personajes contarán con su propio estilo de juego y les darán a los fans nuevos y a los que regresan una gran oportunidad de demostrar su valía. El estilo de juego de Bill es el de un “contrabandista” que puede obtener una escopeta de corredera personalizada de las entregas y también recibe el doble de recompensas de ellas. Es más fuerte contra ataques cuerpo a cuerpo pero no puede esquivar.

Por su parte, Marlene tiene un estilo de juego “temerario” que cuenta con un rifle de asalto personalizado, maniobras de “Todo o nada”, y puede redirigir su camino de Sin retorno una vez por partida, entre otras habilidades.

También se agregaron cuatro mapas nuevos a Sin retorno: Mirador, el cual se desarrolla por encima de la ciudad de Seattle e incluye mucha verticalidad, es el sitio memorable de un encuentro de Seraphites en la campaña.

Escuela es, durante la campaña, la escuela de primaria abandonada en donde Ellie y Dana enfrentan al W.L.F. Calles se ambienta en el descuidado barrio de Hillcrest en Seattle; y Nido será muy familiar para los jugadores que hayan jugado como Abby a través de un edificio lleno de infectados.

Hablando de los jugadores de PlayStation 5, ellos podrán acceder al nuevo contenido de Sin retorno, así como a las correcciones de errores y trofeos que incorpora, si descargan la actualización gratuita 2.0.0 disponible en la fecha y hora del lanzamiento para PC.

Bonificaciones de inicio de sesión en PlayStation Network

Por último, The Last of Us Part II Remastered para PC será compatible con los trofeos de PSN y con la interfaz de PlayStation mediante una cuenta opcional para iniciar sesión en PlayStation Network.

Si bien no es obligatorio, quienes jueguen en PC e inicien sesión con su cuenta para PlayStation Network también recibirán 50 puntos en el juego para activar características adicionales y obtendrán un nuevo aspecto para Ellie con la chaqueta de Jordan A. Mun, uno de los personajes de nuestro nuevo juego aún en desarrollo para PS5, Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet.

Los jugadores de PS5 también podrán desbloquear el aspecto con la chaqueta de Jordan, pues se incluirá en la actualización 2.0.0 y se podrá desbloquear con puntos de bonificación en el juego.

Razer has a new collaboration in the works with Pokemon, having teased the news on social media. It will be officially revealed later this month.

The gaming company shared a post on Twitter on July 7, with the question, "Are you ready for a new journey?" while tagging the official Pokemon account, along with the date and time of the announcement for July 17 at 8 AM PT / 11 AM ET. A short video with yellow fonts on a black background with the Razer logo pulsing with electricity suggests that this could be Pikachu-related.

Based on replies from Razer's account (via PCGamesN), it seems this may be a collaboration that won't be region-locked, as has been the case with Razer and Pokemon partnerships in the past.

Dynasty mode is one of the most popular game modes in College Football 26, and rightfully so. You're given the reigns of an entire school program and entrusted with making every decision regarding the team you put on the field. At the start of a Dynasty playthrough, you're able to pick your school and whether you're a head coach or offensive/defensive coordinator. If you choose to be a head coach, you then need to decide if you're going to use the school's real-life coach or design your own coach.

If you opt for the latter option, you get to fully customize your coach's appearance just like you would a custom player in Road to Glory. However, creating a custom coach also means you need to select a Coach Archetype, which can be a tricky task in College Football 26. To see the differences between the three Archetypes and which one you should pick, check out the guide below.

What are the Coach Archetypes in Dynasty mode?

If you played any College Football 25, then the Dynasty Archetypes will be familiar, as they're the same ones that are in College Football 26. There are three in total, and they are:

Sounds like Disney is cooking up something in the world of video games. A couple of job listings went up on the Disney Careers website at the end of last month, for senior and regular gameplay engineer positions. As is par for the course for listings like these, what exactly it is you'd be working on wasn't mentioned, but it does say that Disney is "building an expert development team that will be building a groundbreaking game experience that will herald the next generation of Disney to the world."

Both roles mention Disney, Pixar, Star Wars, and Marvel, so it sounds like it might be a cross-property project. Notably, it also mentions that having experience in Unreal Editor for Fortnite and Verse (the programming language used for UEFN), making it sound like these roles could be for Disney's previously announced metaverse within Fortnite. That deal saw Disney invest $1.5 billion into Epic Games, though we're yet to see any results from it bar the usual collaborations Fortnite features.

Earlier this year, prolific Fortnite leaker Hypex shared that this Disney metaverse had been moved into a "stable" build/branch, but aside from the initial announcement last year, there's only been a small tease about how the house of mouse's theme parks might integrate with the game.

Following the success of its debut title, Tales of Kenzera: Zau, Surgent Studios has opted to explore an entirely different genre with its next game: psychological horror. With Dead Take, the studio sets its sights on creating a tense and atmospheric experience that tasks players with splicing together live-action footage as they explore a Hollywood mansion and the dark side of fame. It's a hard pivot and a tall order, but a first look at the game's lead actors stepping into their roles definitely inspires some confidence.

GameSpot can exclusively share a look at lead actors Ben Starr (Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, Final Fantasy XVI) and Neil Newbon (Baldur's Gate 3, Detroit: Become Human) as seen in the game's live-action segments. Both clips are presented as footage from audition tapes, and see the characters nervously introduce themselves before disturbing supernatural elements cut in. As someone who has, yet again, fallen into a major Baldur's Gate 3 pit, hearing our beloved Astarion put on a deep American accent definitely surprised me--but not as much as the clips' final moments.

In Dead Take, players take on the role of Chase Lowry (Newbon) as he tries to uncover what happened to his close friend Vinny Monroe (Starr). As Chase explores the luxurious-yet-eerie Los Angeles mansion Vinny was last seen at, he is forced to wade through footage of the pair in an attempt to make sense of what happened. It's worth noting, however, that prior to Vinny's disappearance, both he and Chase were auditioning for the same role in a critically-acclaimed filmmaker's next movie, hinting that there might have been a bit of animosity between the pair. And yet, jealousy isn't the only dark force at work, as there seems to be a strange supernatural element to the game as well.

Later this week, Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 + 4 will officially launch on consoles and PC. But if you're willing to pay for early access, you can play Pro Skater 3 + 4 right now.

Activision Blizzard has released Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 + 4 - Deluxe Edition Upgrade on PSN and Xbox and PC. For an extra $20, players can join the three-day early access ahead of the game's official launch on July 11. If you're a Game Pass Ultimate or PC Game Pass subscriber, that's all you'll need to start playing right now. Those on PlayStation (and those on Xbox/PC without a Game Pass subscription) will need to outright buy the $70 Digital Deluxe Edition.

The Digital Deluxe Edition also includes the Doom Slayer and the Revenant as playable skaters, each with their own secret moves and skate decks. Doom Slayer also has two unique outfits as well as the Unmaykr Hoverboard skate deck. Additionally, the in-game soundtrack has songs that aren't included in the standard edition as well as exclusive Create-a-Skater items.

Universal Orlando Resort is bringing a peek into the magic, adventure, and thrills of its brand-new theme park, Universal Epic Universe, to the heart of San Diego during the annual Fandom Party on Thursday, July 24. Taking over FLOAT at the Hard Rock Hotel from 7:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m., the Universal-sponsored celebration will transport party guests into first-of-its-kind immersive experiences inspired by the park’s five incredible worlds.

Following the May opening of Universal Epic Universe, fans will get a special preview of what awaits them in Orlando. From the wonder of Celestial Park and the spellbinding magic of The Wizarding World of Harry Potter™ – Ministry of Magic™, to the vibrant SUPER NINTENDO WORLD™-Donkey Kong Country™, the heroes of How to Train Your Dragon – Isle of Berk, and the legendary monsters of Dark Universe, this activation brings each world to life for fans in a way only Universal can.

The Fandom Party is one of the most anticipated events of San Diego’s convention week, and this year Universal Epic Universe is at the center of it all — offering fans, creators, and industry insiders a night to explore their fandoms like never before.

This September will be the 30th anniversary of Doom's arrival on the Super Nintendo. But Limited Run isn't waiting around to get the party started. The physical-media brand has debuted the first look at the Doom SNES collector's edition, as well as the special rumble controller that will be compatible with it.

On Friday, July 11, preorders will open for the Doom collector's edition and the Doom standard edition, which will go for $175 and $100, respectively. Both versions include 14 new levels that weren't on the original SNES release, as well as nightmare mode, circle strafing, performance enhancements, and rumble support on playable SNES cartridges.

The collector's edition features a blood-splattered cartridge, an embossed foil box, a 12" x 16" poster, and an instruction booklet. However, it does not include a controller. If you want to try out the new SNES rumble controller, then you'll have to order that separately for $35. Preorders for the controller will also open on July 11.

The Girls' Frontline series is back in a big way with the release of Girls' Frontline 2: Exilium—now available on PC and mobile! This free-to-play strategy RPG sequel builds on everything fans loved in the original game, now with a fully 3D battlefield, evolved mechanics, and a fresh roster of Tactical Dolls (T-Dolls) ready for action.

Whether you're a returning Commander or just starting out, Exilium offers a gorgeous, anime-inspired experience thanks to next-gen rendering tech, deep tactical gameplay, and a variety of mini-games to keep things fresh. It's everything you loved about the original and so much more.

Battle-Ready T-Dolls Take the Spotlight

The latest update brings new Elite T-Dolls to recruit, with increased drop-rates for Springfield, Peri, and Mechty (Rerun). Each brings their own strengths to your squad—and yes, you can deck them out in stylish outfits, too.

What makes this version of Babylon 5 notable compared to other releases over the years is that it's the first time the show has ever been remastered in high definition, giving fans a sharper look at J. Michael Straczynski's groundbreaking show. Released during the golden age of '90s sci-fi, Babylon 5's use of CG technology to craft its space station and interstellar dogfights put Star Trek to shame, as its rival still relied heavily on practical effects and models.

If you've never watched it, Babylon 5 is set on the titular space station and features a melting pot of human and alien cultures striving for intergalactic peace. Of course, sinister forces would rather see war consume the galaxy, and each season focused on growing threats to stability across the cosmos.

Are you curious about the best buddies in Fantasy Life i: The Girl Who Steals Time? Your companions perform certain roles in your party, and each one provides their own unique boons and benefits. That said, there are those who are also head and shoulders above the rest.

The best buddies in Fantasy Life i: The Girl Who Steals Time - Buddies and companions tier list

When discussing the best buddies or companions in the game, we have to consider several important factors:

• Buddy perks are unlocked as you increase your affinity--i.e. relationship--with them. This is done by giving them gifts, completing their requests, and adventuring with them for prolonged periods.
• Companions that are unlocked earlier tend to have an advantage since you're more likely to level them up as you tackle main quest objectives. That said, certain mid-to-late-game recruitable companions are viable, too.
• You'll want to prioritize combat roles, for the most part, since you need to defeat enemies and farm the materials that they drop.
• Next, you should also take note of gathering/harvesting roles, particularly those that help you obtain the resources that you need--i.e. Miner and Woodcutter.
• Lastly, crafting lives/classes are only viable insofar as the frequency in which you'd make use of these actions/processes. This means the Blacksmith life has an edge given all the weapons and tools you could craft. The Artist life, meanwhile, takes a backseat since it's mostly used to create fixtures and cosmetic effects.

Note: Before we continue, we encourage you to check our Strangeling locations guide and Shrine locations guide. These should give you a clear idea as to where you can find certain companions.

Best buddies for melee combat

Odin (Paladin) is easily one of the best buddies in Fantasy Life i: The Girl Who Steals Time, and that's because of his perks. At affinity level 2, he boosts the attack and defense of allies. At level 3, he's more likely to be targeted by enemies, turning him into your party's tank. Then, at level 5 affinity, he gains a +50 physical defense boost if Daemon is also in your group. After unlocking Odin, you're going to want him in your squad for the rest of your playthrough.

Best buddies for ranged combat and healing

We feel that Daemon (Magician) is the one who truly excels when it comes to ranged combat. That's because all his affinity perks are meant to boost his offensive capabilities, including the darkness-infused energy beams that he periodically casts once you have rank 2 affinity. Granting a boost to the aforementioned Odin, who's already a melee/tanky powerhouse in his own right, is just icing on the cake.

Next, as far as healing options are concerned, Sloane (Magician) is definitely one of the top picks out there. Sloane's affinity perks at ranks 2 and 3 are restoration-focused, while others provide magic attack buffs. Sloane is also a better choice compared to Hilda (Paladin), as the latter tends to rush into the fray given her life/class.

Note: As an aside, we have to add that Yuelia might just be the best Fantasy Life i: The Girl Who Steals Time buddy overall due to her special skill at rank 2 and her item drop rate boost at rank 5. Unfortunately, you can only recruit her after beating the campaign and obtaining 50x Golden Celestia's Gifts. This whole process can take you a while, so her usefulness really depends on how invested you are in post-campaign activities.

Best buddies for gathering resources

As mentioned earlier, the Miner and Woodcutter lives ought to be prioritized due to the resources that you need in the long run. Now, when talking about Miner-type characters, we feel that Sylvia and Duglas are the two best buddies for this role.

Duglas is the second companion that you unlock in the campaign, which means you're bound to level him up as you go along. He also boosts the SP regeneration of all Miners in the party. That said, if you can beeline straight for Lun'li Shrine in Scorchrock Mountain--i.e. all the way to the north of Ginormosia--then you should be able to unlock Sylvia. Her rank 2 affinity boon prevents boss ore deposits from regenerating HP, while her rank 3 perk increases the Mining skill for every Miner-type character in the party.

Next, for Woodcutters, you can't really go wrong with Monica, whose Strangeling object comes from Ba'reng Shrine. She's basically the Woodcutter equivalent of Sylvia.

Best buddies for crafting-related tasks

Lastly, let's talk about the best companions for crafting-related tasks. Naturally, the Blacksmith life takes priority here, which leaves us with three choices: Magmia, Bray, and Ian. Their perks are generally similar, though Bray has the edge since his rank 3 boon improves your capabilities when crafting metal weapons.

When it comes to the Carpenter life, the ideal choice here is none other than Kunugi. Although other Carpenter companions--i.e. Cormell and Cherry--offer generally similar benefits, Kunugi has an advantage due to two reasons:

• She's the first buddy that you recruit in the campaign, so you're likely to level her up a lot.
• Her rank 3 perk helps you when crafting wooden weapons.

That does it for our guide on the best buddies in Fantasy Life i: The Girl Who Steals Time. Don't forget to check our Strangeling locations guide so you know where to recruit these party members. We also have a Legendary Recipes guide to help you create some late-game goodies.

Are you eager to find all Strangelings in Fantasy Life i: The Girl Who Steals Time? These curious-looking objects hold untold power. Once you have the right resources, you can actually turn them into companions/buddies to aid you on your quest. We've got all the details for you right here in our guide.

All 50 Strangelings in Fantasy Life i: The Girl Who Steals Time - Strangeling locations guide

There are 50 Strangelings in the game, and trying to find all of them can be a very daunting task. That said, our Strangelings locations guide covers various facets about this feature. First, we discuss what these Strangelings do and how you can turn them into buddies. Then, we talk about the different methods that allow you to obtain them. These include:

• Campaign progression
• Shrine challenge completion
• Settlement quest completion
• Objects left in the environment
• Green chests and crowned enemies

Note: Strangelings are different from Phantoms. Strangelings are permanent additions to your roster, whereas Phantoms may appear in random locations. They then disappear after enough time has elapsed.

Strangelings in Fantasy Life i: The Girl Who Steals Time - How to turn them into buddies and what are their functions

The Fantasy Life i: The Girl Who Steals Time Strangelings are objects that are able to talk to you. However, you should be able to transform them into buddies, companions that can join your party. Here's a quick summary:

• You can turn Strangelings into buddies via the Goddess Statue in your base camp. You have to spend a resource called Celestia's Gifts to complete this process.
• Celestia's Gifts can be collected in your base camp. These flowers bloom every 24 hours in real-time. You may also use the Hagram robot once you've unlocked it to collect everything in the area.
• Certain debris or obstacles in your base camp, once removed, may yield Celestia's Gifts as well.
• Completing bulletin board tasks in your base camp--i.e. placing down furniture or having more Strangelings--increases your rank. Certain ranks reward you with additional Celestia's Gifts, too.

Each Strangeling has a particular life/class--i.e. Paladin, Woodcutter, Miner, Cook, and the like. Once a Strangeling has turned back into a human, you can add them to your party via your Guild Office in your base camp. As a party member, they can help you with combat, gathering, and crafting-related tasks.

Strangelings that appear in the environment

Several Strangelings also appear as regular objects scattered all over Ginormosia. Simply walk up to these and interact with them to add them to your inventory. We've marked their locations on the map.

Strangeling Object #1: Witch's Broom - Hazel

• Location: West Dryridge Desert - Head to the top of the plateau in the southeast part of the zone.
• Life/class: Magician

Strangeling Object #2: Black Wolf Doll - Fang

Strangeling Object #3: Cook O' Lantern - Chakpo

• Location: Viridia Plateau - From the fast travel point, head to the nearby windmills. This Strangeling is next to the farm plots and Legendary Recipe.

• Life/class: Tailor

Strangeling Object #5: Homely Flower Basket - Leilah

• Location: Shroomhaven - Go northwest from the fast travel tower until you see a pond in the middle of the forested area. Check one of the small islands in the pond.
• Life/class: Hunter

Strangeling Object #6: Scarecorn - Roissin

• Location: Wingtip Valley - You can get this Strangeling in Fantasy Life i: The Girl Who Steals Time by swimming across the water south of the fast travel point. You should then spot a scarecrow on the small island.
• Life/class: Farmer

Strangeling Object #7: Quirky Hammer - Magmia

• Life/class: Blacksmith

Strangeling Object #9: Country Wood Pot - Orlando

• Location: Drakesnout Range - From the region's fast travel tower, head south until you reach the southernmost tip of the peninsula. There, you'll find a camp. The Strangeling is right next to the tent.
• Life/class: Woocutter

Stangelings unlocked via green chests/crowned enemies

You can also find Fantasy Life i: The Girl Who Steals Time Strangelings as random rewards from green chests. These chests can only be dropped by "crowned enemies"--i.e. elite or boss creatures that have a silver or gold crown on their nameplates. Mimics tend to drop these at times, too.

However, because of randomization, you're not guaranteed to obtain a specific Strangeling. You just have to keep taking out crowned enemies until there are no more rewards left to obtain. If you want to improve your chances, we recommend delving deep into Nostruul Cave in the southern part of Drakesnout Range. This mini-dungeon has several Mimics, as well as Pandora's Box, that might drop green chests.

In any case, the Strangelings that come from green chests include:

• Pirate Princess Flag: Olivia - Paladin
• Easy-Going Shield: Hilda - Paladin
• Plushling Lady Doll: Rouge - Mercenary
• Corny Bottle: Jerry - Hunter
• Sleepy Pillow: Sloane - Magician
• Cheery Wheat Juice: Grantz - Miner
• Fresh-Faced Helm: Ian - Blacksmith
• Wholesome Yarn Basket: Taylor - Tailor
• Snacky Pie: Nommie - Cook
• Secretive Mask: Sophie - Alchemist

The post-campaign Strangeling: Yuelia

Last but not least, there's one more recruitable buddy in the game and her name is Yuelia. Unlocking the Magician Yuelia in Fantasy Life i: The Girl Who Steals Time tends to be a very time-consuming task due to the requirements:

• You must complete the entire campaign.
• Your base camp must have a 5-star rating.
• You have to give 50x Golden Celestia's Gifts to Flutter, the butterfly NPC next to the Goddess Statue.

Note that you only receive 1x Golden Celestia's Gifts for every 50x Celestia's Gifts that you collect after you've beaten the campaign. Given that these flowers bloom once per day--in real-time, no less--then this process can take you a while. Fortunately, you can change the date and time in your platform's system settings. This allows you to amass resources quickly. Once you have 50 of these, hand them over to Flutter to make Yuelia appear in your base camp.

That does it for our guide on how to find all 50 Strangelings in Fantasy Life i: The Girl Who Steals Time. Given that we've already discussed where to find these companions, you might want to know about the best buddies for your party. Likewise, since you're going to be exploring a vast world out there, we encourage you to read our Shrine locations guide and Legendary Recipes guide.

Do you want to check out all the Shrines in Fantasy Life i: The Girl Who Steals Time? These locations have challenges that you must tackle, and their rewards are well worth it.

There are 16 Legendary Recipes in the game. The good news is that all of them can be found in the realm of Ginormosia, so you don't have to worry about traveling back and forth the past and present time periods.

It's also worth noting that you can pick up these blueprints as soon as you're able to--i.e. while freely exploring the continent. However, you won't be able to craft the items themselves until much later in the campaign, once you've acquired the necessary materials.
