The Last Guardians' Fumito Ueda wants to make a zombie game

The creator behind The Last Guardian has revealed that he’s keen on developing a zombie game for his next project.

Fumito Ueda, who departed from his role at Sony two years ago but continues to work on a freelance basis, expressed his interest in tackling the undead genre somewhere down the line.

The Last Zombie? It'll take ten years to come out though. So, we'll all be zombies by then.

Lol, sorry, can't help poking fun at this. XD

[Hatsune-Miku]

He doesnt work at sony anymore so he doesnt have the clout he once did and i doubt any development studio would want to work with his deadline.

[UltimateMaster]

The last Walking Dead.

Well at least people won't be disappointed when his next game remains in a prolonged vaporware status.

Like the saying goes "What is dead may never die" XD

[bayonetta]

I can accept any kind of game from Ueda 2 bad that he left sony =/

[AnotherProGamer]

He's still working at Team ICO under contract

[majiebeast]

Maybe he can go to Square Enix, they take as long as him to release a game.

Just don't put him near Toriyama. Next thing you know, the giant bird cat gryffon thing is gonna be part animal and part sexy human female wearing a very revealing outfit. The little boy might even now become a cross-dresser and uses various outfits to lure the enemies and beat them. Also, insert incestuous-lesbian romance between the two leads.

Good gosh, that Toriyama really needs to finally confess his love for Lightning and marry her. A Japanese guy married a female character from Love Plus several years ago, surely this guy can also make Lightning his WAIFU.

Finish your damn breakfast.

[MegaRay]

Yay my grandchild will be happy to play it

[Bolts-N-Rays1109]

Might want to finish The Last Guardian before you start talking about your next project. At this rate we won't see it until 2020.

[Azurite]

His job is pretty much done with The Last Guardian.

"In the case of The Last Guardian, my creative work was mostly finished a long time ago, but the details of when, where and how it will be completed are beyond my control"

[Bolts-N-Rays1109]

Ah, I see. Well, then he needs to go to work on making the greatest zombie game ever.

[Acquiescence]

Lets just get The Last Guardian finished with first.

[wishingW3L]

zombies have always been popular but when did it become such a phenomenon in games? I remember Resident Evil but for this gen the theme has been used so much it almost a genre of its own.

[RandomDude655]

It has to be something that you feel no remorse for shooting.

So zombies and Nazis........

[solidboss07]

Ueda san, please make it. I loved the ICO universe, and am waiting patiently for TLG, but a new creation would be most welcome.

[CanadianTurtle]

Oh boy, a zombie game... People here complain about too many FPS games. I think the zombie sub-genre is much more annoying

[GentlemenRUs]

Zombies... Urgh...

Overused much?

[Hicken]

I've never gotten the draw to zombies. They're super popular, but they just... don't hold much interest at all, to me.

[pwnsause_returns]

How about you finish the last guardian first?

Oh and stop it with the zombie games

[Harpers_Ferry]

Think about it guys, a zombie apocalypse that never happens.

Most realistic zombie game ever.

[_QQ_]

please no more zombies...... last guardian first k?!

[ChipChipperson]

Ok, awesome. That's cool, I'm all for it, BUT... how about some more news on the progress of The Last Guardian and when it may release before we start coming up with new project ideas?

[Elda]

REALLY??.....Please finish TLG then talk about something new.
