Japanese developers are usually at the forefront of any console launch. However, the upcoming launch of PS4 and Xbox One will have zero games coming from any Eastern developer.
A remake of MediEvil 2 may be getting shadow dropped at the rumored PlayStation Showcase or State of Play presentation in May, 2024.
What, I thought this was dead after Shawn Layden left Sony. I would definitely pick this up if it's true. I have such great memories of playing the MediEvil games on PS1 and I played the PS4 remake. Such a great and underrated series.
Such a good series I also wish Sony would dust off Wild Arms and Legend of Dargoon even the Legend series needs to see the light again.
"The Vancouver-based (Canada) indie games developer Red Hook Studios are today very happy and excited to announce that their roguelike /strategy/RPG “Darkest Dungeon II”, is coming to Playstation consoles (PS5 and PS4) via PSN on July 15th, 2024." - Jonas Ek, TGG.
VGChartz's Evan Norris: "If you haven't played Rainbow Cotton before, you're not alone. A Dreamcast exclusive released only in Japan, it's not exactly a household name. Looking to change that, and bring the sixth-gen game back into the spotlight, is German studio KRITZELKRATZ 3000, which — with the backing of publisher ININ and original developer SUCCESS — has remade the 3D shoot-'em-up from the ground up. Featuring several modern quality-of-life upgrades, plus HD graphics and a brand new local co-op mode, it promises to merge the past and present when it launches digitally on consoles and PC on May 9.
Ahead of the game's release, I chatted with Andreas Scholl, technical director at KRITZELKRATZ 3000 and lead programmer for Rainbow Cotton, about what fans can expect from the remake."
Yes they are.. However, i know PS4 will get them in due time.. They always do even if it took forever this gen, PS3 got some.. M$ isnt going to sell in japan so i doubt many eastern titles will be made for it
They're coming. Mistwalker still owes Microsoft a favor Sony has plenty of good relation in japan Microsoft opened a new Japanese studio so their bound to make something.Though
I'm sure Sony will pull through in terms of giving the gamers jrpg ,I doubt Microsoft will do anything all that special. Especially since they even stated themselves Japan would be secondary country.
Eh', Japan is really moving towards the "portable" gaming scene. And really most Japanese developers try to "westernize" their games, so honestly there's been a short supply of Japanese 3rd party games for a while now.
who else want a resi 2 remake on that insanely good looking deep down Engine???
there's a petition for a resi 2 remake, it's now over 31K votes, i voted
we need a great resi game, either a remake or a worthy successor to the legendary RESI 4
Why would you make this article with TGS coming up....
And I've said this before, Japan really doesn't care about consoles, they care about portable gaming.
