GamesIndustry International: ''The creator of Resident Evil talks to us about his new game The Evil Within, violent games, and the state of Japanese development.''
Veteran video game developer Shinji Mikami has established a new company.
That’s according to a bio of the developer on the new Shadows of the Damned Hella Remastered website, which claims that Mikami has recently founded ‘Kamuy Inc’.
No details further details on the company have been shared. There is also no indication of what the company will do.
Shinji should never stop making games. Kinda crazy he left the funding of M$ though.
I remember when it was announced that he was leaving Tango, someone on N4G claimed that he was old and it was time for him to retire.
I couldn't help but laugh at the ignorance. Mikami (like most Japanese people), do not want to work for Microsoft, they want their games to be played by their fellow citizens, which means Switch, Playstation, and PC. But this fool couldn't comprehend that. 🤣
Was waiting for his return announcement, glad to see that he's back! Please don't make mobile games.
I hope it's still survival horror
They should build on what they did with Evil Within for a new IP and take notes from the Evil Within sequel with those open hub areas.
Wouldn't mind if it was like Resident Evil but with a vampire virus instead.
Yeah this man's skills need a new start to thrive. Hope he keeps doing what he loves. Wonder what his next project is.
Xbox Game Pass continues to bring quality titles for gamers no matter the genre, but this time we here at CGMagazine have compiled a list of spine-tingling titles to celebrate the spooky season with.
The Dead Space Remake gets added to GamePass 10/26, definitely worth playing through.
The Epic Game Store's weekly freebies includes a game to give you nightmares.
I disagree, what do we get from western devs but Rehashes and FPS's galore?
Sure we get some gems like The Last Of Us every now and then, but the majority of original IPs I've played have cone from Japan, like Ico, Shadow of the colossus, Metal Gear Solid, Odin Sphere and Devil may cry.
I'm not biased, this is just how it seems to be from my perspective
i disagree too...i like japanese games better..they have more replay values and they more challenging.
Why are people disagreeing so much on comments here Japan has created the best games there has ever be
Not sure why people keep disagreeing, have you all started gaming this gen?? lol
Western devs certainly do take more risks - Sure
Do those risks usually pay off - Majority of the time, NO.
why? Because most use shit western developers
Example? Capcom with LP3, RE, DmC
Good Idea? Only to save money
Now, Mikami is a part of Bethesda, which is a great company, so I can understand and appreciate what hes saying. Ultimately its down to which western dev they are working with.
