PlayStation Home: Do the Locomotion

PlayStation Home will briefly be offline from 8.00 a.m. BST on Wednesday 26^th September for routine maintenance. Here’s what to expect after the update…

With the Home 1.7 update comes the ability to equip inventory items that affect the way that your avatar moves. The very first set of Locomotion items available in Home, brought to you by nDreams are available for use on your avatar regardless of what outfit you are wearing. The first set includes:

Super Dash – Which will allow your avatar to run faster than normal.

Zen Flight – You will no longer walk or run, you will float in the air in the lotus position. You can also travel faster than the normal run.

Super Flight – Majestically fly through the air like a super hero at different speeds.

Ninja Run – Your run animation will become a slick ninja run and can change into a Ninja Sprint.

Inferno Hero – A fantastic fire will swarm around your avatar and you can fly through the air surrounded by flames.

Ice Hero – You can ride the ice coming from your hand and move quickly through whichever space you are in.

Skateboards – With four different styles you can skate around Home and go quicker than you have ever been able to before. These also come with an ‘Ollie’ emote animation.

Equip these items in your inventory and see what effect they have. When running forward hold the square button to change the way your avatar moves.

You can pick up any of the new Locomotion items by visiting the nDreams store or any shop within Aurora. Speaking of Aurora, rumour has it that some details surrounding the next update will be available via the nDreams newsletter which you can sign up for here (http://ndreams.us2.list-manage2.com/subscribe?u=7fda53ebe0e73a599fe16f971&id=e53a60aea8)

 

Juggernaut Games introduces the Palace of the Seven Winds personal space, clubhouse, clothing and furniture items. Break free from your earthly shackles and explore the entirety of the space from the air. With rewards for guests and owners, and your own personal genie the Palace of the Seven Winds adds an exotic touch to your personal space collection or next club meeting.

There are new companions this week from Lockwood’s captive breeding program - Sammy the Skunk is cute, fluffy and friendly, but don’t annoy him, ‘cos he’ll kick up a stink! Bartholomew’s a playful little chap who sometimes forgets he’s a bear and tries to walk like a person. Wulfred enjoys human company, but sometimes he misses life with the pack and howls to make sure he doesn’t lose touch with his wolf brothers.

 

So whether you prefer your companion cute, funny or enigmatic, one of these three is sure to be the perfect match for you! But don’t keep all the companions for yourself - visit the Gift Machine to adopt Nanook the Polar Bear cub for a friend.

nDreams are gonna make a mint from these Locomotions Can see this all selling like hotcakes.

[Nordlyset87]

Indeed a good update, but by the look of it only Wulfred will be mine <3

I guess since the 'Locomotion' items are in Inventory we can't use Companions?! Would be a shame and needs to be done different

But please bring me some Inline skates soon, okay?

[sam_reynolds01]

Plus I'll be collecting my freebies from GZ

Definately getting these things

[Dazz-252]

Wow, reading the Locomotion list made me laugh because i can picture it, people floating, ninja runs, skate boards etc etc LOL this is really going to change the way we see HOME on a day to day basis. Cant wait to see it.

Lets just hope it doesn't break the atmosphere that HOME has, if you understand what i mean.

PS

Then again, we do have floating outfits and skate boarding outfits and ninja run outfits but these locomotions will definitely be very popular, to were almost everyone might have. So thats why i said about braking the atmosphere, ya know everyone zipping around everwhere and out of control lol but i hope it wont be a problem.
