PlayStation Studios Development

I really hope they do something cool with them. Old bungie was one of my favorite devs.

I enjoyed both Destinies but only played them for their campaigns.

They seem to have quite a few things in the works.

A new IP and bringing back Marathon supposedly. Will be interesting to see where they're at in 5 years.

destiny was amazing gameplay but to loot/seasons cycle was just too much of a hamster wheel last I played.  

would play anything new that put out at least for a while.

It was also a considerable investment, both time and money wise.

for me or for Sony?

That’s a wrap on 7 weeks filming around the world on the fastest film ever made. The GranTurismo movie. From +35 degrees to -5 my incredible @Nissan GTR camera car performed faultlessly. We broke new grounds on how to film race cars actually racing. Incredible journey. pic.twitter.com/8K3mtBVcO9

Will be fun to see if it's actually good.

A lot of people were assuming that Valkyrie Entertainment was going to be just a support studio.
They helped out with God of War, Halo, and a lot of other big titles.

They also had previously made Guns Up! for Sony. Which launched on PlayStation, PC and mobile.  So I assumed that they would likely have more in-house productions in the future. And here we are:

Valkyrie Entertainment Game Designer

They are looking for someone with Real Time Strategy experience and Free To Play experience.

Deep understanding and passion for RTS game mechanics, as well as other genres
Experience developing mobile Free-to-Play games, particularly in the areas of economy design and live operations

So likely they have something else in the works in the line of Guns Up! 

Not spectacular or anything, but still interesting I think.

sounds like a mobile game to me.

Maybe they will support the content creation of Sonys live service games?  I think it would be smart for Sony to have support studios for that reason

They do have other support studios that they don't really talk about.
San Mateo Studio, Malaysia Studio that is only a couple years old.

But I've always thought it was interesting, because they didn't include Nixxes or Valkyrie Entertainment in their support studios wing. Instead they were put under their primary development wing. (Although Nixxes still seems to be support.)

Valkyrie seems to be a good bit of both.

sounds like a mobile game to me.

Most likely that. Although maybe a Mobile/console title like their last one. Who knows?

Happy New Year, peeps! As always, thank you so much for the incredible support. We got lots of cool stuff coming next year that we can't wait to share with y'all! (P.S. be wary of "insider" info. Much of it is false.) pic.twitter.com/QSYTqiybmv

Neil seems to imply at least some of the rumors are false.

Hopefully a new IP before TLOU3.

[the-pi-guy]

And with the support of Sony we are working on a number of unannounced projects too. Come join us!

Also, obviously I’m missing a medal, my kids played with the shield awhile back and I’m still looking for it, lol.

XDev game apparently leaked

Some kind of Scifi RPG running on Unreal Engine 5.

The 5 second clip gives me Mass Effect vibes.

[Legend]

Cool. I love mass effect!

hope that's a very early build.  I'm not trying to be a graphics joker here but it looks like a low investment project.

Person on Era said that it doesn't look like this anymore. This was just an early build.
