First details of the next London Studio project, “the most ambitious” in its history.
PlayStation’s London Studio continues to work on its first PlayStation 5 game, which will come exclusively to the console as it is a first-party study by PlayStation Studios. The English have now offered new details of this project of “huge potential” after having worked on numerous SingStar and EyeToy games, although recently she has been focused on virtual reality games.
Now, London Studio has announced that his next game will be cooperative online combat, set in a fantasy London. On this occasion, the title will not involve the use of VR headsets, cameras or microphones, as it represents “new challenges” for the developer. “We definitely wanted to try something a little different, and I think this new project really channels our ‘brave’ courage and allows us to push ourselves.” reveals the co-director of the study, Stuart Whyte.
“It’s our most ambitious game to date“, has declared for its part the co-director Tara Saunders to the medium gameindustry. Interestingly, this game will present a modern fantasy London by bringing together numerous ideas transferred with Soho Engine, the internal engine of the study, created from for for the new generation. “It’s designed to get the most out of PS5, but it’s fair to say that some of the toolset we’re using can be traced back to the VR Worlds and Blood & Truth tech that we had on PS4. VR games need to have super efficient channels and engines“.
