State of Play, September 24th 2024

The director from Asobi said they have more to announce soon.

I'd say there is a Square DLC incoming in 2025. I have zero inside information, it's just absolutely strange they couldn't get any Square cameos into the game.

That ghost of yotei seems like a smaller project, Ghost of Tsushima 1.5 from initial impressions. Cautiously optimistic but it seems like more an expansion rather than a sequel

it is a full fledged sequel, look at the blog post

In Ass Cream Japan the main issue is a black samurai in a game where you can also play as a woman. No issue with a female role as the issues were with the black samurai.

GoY has a female lead and it's a problem now? They existed before Jin and this is set hundreds of years on from that.

At least you have good taste with Lunar.

Because the other female is not a 2-katana wielding samurai, she's more of a tricky ninja with stealth first.

No one making the review thread for the new Belda game, We can make fun of the nintendrones which is a once in a blue moon occasion

Like a ghost?

 

[Bo_Hazem]

Like a ghost?

Yes! Not holding 2 katanas and doing deuls with ronins and samurais. She has a Katana but as a backup.

All while having a Japanese guitar.

Or it could be a new game. Ape Escape would be great. They've been teasing it for a while now.

Why Metaphor? It's multiplat and the PS5 version will outsell Xbox 10:1, with or without the marketing deal.

Its not about the game per se its about Playstation not winning yet another GOTY. The salt mines open up in the green camp come the first week of december every year

no escape this year for them, either way most Gotys will go to Playstation

Ape Escape would be epic.

A Fall Guys clone with bots of Playstation history running courses based on Playstation franchises would be a dream. I love watching Takeshi's Castle and it is probably one of the only online games I play

Of course, why not have another "FeMaLe" protagonist game? Killed my excitement for the new Ghost.

Goddess of War next.

This is sad, but the DEI BS kind of killed it for me.

 

[Alabtrosmyster]

Let me be clear, I see the panic at UbiSoft and what appears to be them attempting to clean house after years of downfall in the DEI rabbit hole.... I hope Sony sees what's going on so that they don't wait until they hit the ground too.

Is Ubisoft changing anything?

I think the Board of Directors is launching an investigation on the overall state of the company.

Yeap but they game's controversies are not changing at all.
Looks more like PR stuffs than actions.
