Job listings that have appeared on both Sucker Punch Productions' website and Gamasutra have revealed that the studio is currently hiring for staff to work on a new PlayStation 3-exclusive title.
Rumours suggest that Ghost of Tsushima 2 is already in development. Here's what we'd like to see in the sequel.
I love Ghost of Tsushima. It is my open world Onimusha. The presentation, the characters, the combat, the respect for the source material which was the Island of Tsushima, etc was just a step up for Sucker Punch.
A sequel of this game would definitely require Jin Sakai in the game. I would also have the game return to Tsushima because that's where the game is about. But it can look quite different on PS5 even if the same areas. The jump in detail, foliage, lighting, AI, new moves, new characters, etc would make the game look and play quite differently than before. You could even have unaccessible areas from the first game, areas that were secret even to Jin, playable areas.
And in my opinion, a portion of mainland Japan. Maybe someone against the second Mongol invasion that is playable and has a story arch that brings him from mainland Japan to Tsushima. And someone else is trying to stop them from reaching Tsushima. This person would have their own fighting style as a Samurai or something else. Characters like Yuna and Tomoe would return in the game as playable story arcs as well. Yuna was a great character that I'd like to see more of. Maybe she is taught by Jin to have Samurai moves but still has her thief like qualities. Maybe Tomoe returns but doesn't return to the Way of the Bow. Maybe she returns with the Way of the Fist. Some martial arts mixed in. Okay. I'm reaching on that last one. But we don't know a lot about Tomoe. That can be fleshed out.
But I'd have something like four playable characters to mix things up with different styles. Jin, Yuna, Tomoe and a fourth character from Japan. Five if you can get a more deadly Norio or a student of his in the game. Monks have cool moves too.
Something like that
I expect the sequel will take place in a different location and therefore have a new title. Personally I would be fine with a new protagonist but I think we need new weapons and styles to elevate the gameplay above the original. Taking it a step further, I would love a wound system that affects your ability to fight. Something like Bushido Blade if anyone remembers that game.
Disguises
More non lethal tools
HIDE BODIES…main one for me, like to drag them in bushes more effectively and hide them from others.
Jinns return, will the Shogun go after him, will his Uncle (canon ending in my mind, he wouldn’t kill his family)
As we approach 25 years since Sucker Punch first opened, we’re proud to look back on the legacy of characters and stories we’ve created, from Rocket: Robot on Wheels to Sly Cooper and inFAMOUS, and most recently Ghost of Tsushima.
Least they are honest about Sly and Infamous so people don't get their hopes up
Still want Infamous 3 though with Coles return eventually.
I just 100% Infamous 2 this year and the UGC is not great so I don't think it really even needs to be kept up for anything other than trophies. Pretty cool they are going to be making Coles Legacy dlc for Second Son available to everyone because for some reason it's not available for download in the USA. I'm pretty sure I had it on my launch PS4 but on PS5 I don't see anyway to download it or access it again. Of course maybe I didn't even enter the code that's in the case before it expired because I really don't remember anymore.
I did a badass mod on Infamous 2's UGC that I wish I had recorded it for posterity. Thinking the Mod had its own save or that once you uploaded it to their servers it would be safe, like a goofball, I went ahead and deleted the game installation from my PS3 and the thing disappeared...Bah!
I think it was named "Left Behind - Starting Jason Statham". Something like that.
If you were one of the 5 people that played it, then you are welcome.
Ahead of the Ghost of Tsushima: Director's Cut launch, learn from the developers themselves about the title card's surprising development process.
Hopefully it's a new IP and they save inFamous 3 for the PS4
.
As Sly 4 already developed by Sanzaru Games.
Can't wait see what they come up with next.
Knew it, I read a couple articles saying that might make a mutiplatform title. But after reading an article where they say they love developing for the PS3, I knew they would stay exclusive.
that new ip rumor might be true if this is to go by.
