With the PS3-era in the rear view mirror at this point, some gamers have begun to worry that The Last Guardian will never see the light of day. Sony has yet to comment on whether the game is being overhauled for the new console generation, but it seems like a safe bet. Regardless of platform, Sony does insist that the game is still in development and moving forward.
Vice president of Sony Worldwide Studios Europe, Michael Denny, explained to VG 24/7 that he could not give any updates on the game, but that the company is still very excited about its development.
That may not be a game-changing announcement, but when it comes to The Last Guardian, any confirmation that development is still moving forward is good news. Many fans were hoping that an announcement concerning the game may arrive at Toyko Game Show, but it seems we shouldn’t get our hopes up for that either.
Sony’s Shuhei Yoshida was asked about a TGS appearance during Gamescom and he explained that he doesn’t think the game will be featured at the event. When pressed about when we will see more of the game, Yoshida gave the following response…
With no release window mentioned, it seems like a PS4 version will likely be the announcement when the company is ready to share more details. It’s possible that the game will be released on both PlayStation consoles, as well. Although it is disappointing to wait so long, hopefully Team Ico delivers another unique gameplay experience and the delayed development will have helped create a superior product.
Are you still excited for The Last Guardian or do you think the wait has been too long? Let us know in the comments.
