I hope it's more on the shadow of the colossus side of things.

worst idea ever.

Why?

Why?

From Software has big shoes to fill.
We haven't seen Bluepoint make any wholly new games.  

I think they can do better than their first game being considered the worst souls game

[kitler53]

Why?

expanding on a game many consider a masterpiece?   that's a great way to set yourself up for failure.  no matter what it won't be good enough.  

they should do their own thing instead of mimicking others.

I'm excited to see what comes out of this. Haven will probably be the only one I play but they'll all be unique.

We are currently working on several AAA-titles alongside our partners, including the next iteration of God of War, as well as in-house projects for both mobile and console platforms.

Seems like they might be working on an internal game.  

Might be old/outdated.

[kitler53]

probably a smallish game.  

with all those projects I doubt they could also handle a full fledged AAA game solo.  I'm thinking it was a side project they were working on since before the aquisition. 

meh.  could be anything.  could be cancelled.

Twisted Metal PS5 Reboot Studio Swapped Mid-Development - Push Square
Sources: Sony switches Twisted Metal reboot developer | VGC

Lucid Games is apparently not working on Twisted Metal anymore. They've apparently been moved onto other projects.

Firesprite is apparently taking over development of Twisted Metal. I kind of feel like Sony is trying to make Firesprite into being Europe's Insomniac Games...

[Legend]

I don't care for the game so boo! Wish the devs were working on something cooler.

[kitler53]

i'm not going to be shocked if in the not so distant future we find out lucid was acquired by MS...

[BananaKing]

There is no confirmation that firesprite took over twisted metal development
