I’m not keen about what appears like an inevitable future whereby video games and gaming subscription providers are inundated with ads. That stated, I’m excited to reinstall Skyrim so I can play an elaborate Ikea advert.
Newly launched on Bethesda’s Creations web site, Kallax Storageborn is a remarkably in-depth Skyrim mod that options the titular Ikea merchandise. However moderately than merely including the Kallax shelving unit as an merchandise you need to use to prepare your in-game home, the mod turns it right into a companion that follows you round, holding an infinite variety of objects in your behalf. Oh, and the Kallax is voiced by Matt Berry.
You will get a style of the mod within the video under, displaying off Berry’s efficiency and even a modified model of the opening “You are lastly awake” sequence. There are new objects to acquire, together with the Allenblade, which seems to be like a large allen wrench, and the Meatball Helmet.
With the mod put in, there is a new sequence of quests that kicks off to search out the elements to assemble the Kallax, finally all culminating in a boss battle. To set off the search, you will need to develop into over-encumbered, which raises the necessity for a strolling, speaking shelving unit within the first place.
Apart from the audacity of this concept within the first place, and the inexplicable but great inclusion of Matt Berry, I am personally tickled by this deal with the Kallax. As somebody who owns 4 of them in varied sizes to show all of my varied Legos, foolishly bought collector’s editions, and duck-ified variations of Yakuza characters necessary enterprise papers, the concept of 1 following me round in Skyrim is genuinely amusing.
The mod is out there for each the PC and Xbox variations of the sport, and it is out now without spending a dime.
