It's nice seeing them branch out and try new things. If only they would have done that when they were making ps exclusives, maybe they could have done better.

With this and their OR game Edge of Nowhere, I wonder what's up with the studio?

Did Sunset Overdrive bomb horribly so they couldn't find a big publisher for that team's next game?

Yeap I guess SO performance have a lot to do with what the studio will do now.

Possible they will be a indie dev now.

Woah they have even more games! I checked out their wikipedia.

2012: Ratchet game plus first mobile game
2013: Fuse plus Ratchet
2014: Sunset Overdrive
2015: Windows game, mobile game, and another mobile game
2016: Ratchet, this one, and the vr one.


Definitely had a shaky year after Sunset.

Releasing SO as an exclusive really hurt the studio. Seems to be a trend when doing these deals with MS.

It should have been multiplat and it would have been even better if it was a good game. But it lacked in everything even though it was a mash up of all their previous works it just felt off and uninspired.

Gamestop being the publishers says a lot, doesn't it? It wasn't just SO but what they've done with the R&C franchise and Fuse as well.
