There's a maybe semi-semi-reliable ish rumour that the show is this Thursday 1pm PST with the announcement imminent. We'll see.

If he's right then probably best to lower expectations for the show if an acquisition announcement is the main surprise. It would probably be with their next game, but I don't find a Bluepoint remake to be the most exciting kind of announcement.
I feel like he's been half right for the things I've paid attention to. Not sure if his record is better or worse otherwise.  

But I doubt. Unless they were to announce a game with the acquisition.

I feel like I first heard this bluepoint rumor a year ago.  maybe they are ready to announce their original game.  uncharted 5, Bloodborne 2, or shadow of the colossus 2 would all be good headliner material. 

not like it would need to ship this year. a holiday '22 target would be legit for a game as big as those.

The way you say this makes it sound like you know there's an original game coming. I would be extremely surprised if that was the case, I'm 100% expecting them to be making more remakes.

I still think it'd be smart to do both. Have a new IP and a remake team.  Even if your new IP fails, you still have a strong remake studio there.

well if you are going to believe the part of the rumor that is Sony is aquireing them them then you should also believe the part where much of their motivation towards being open to aquisition is because they don't want to be a port house anymore and want to start developing original IP.

I don't think I've ever seen that part of the rumor, where did it come from?

They want to make sure they get a shot at an original IP, they don't want to be simply a "remake studio" (Even if they make more remakes)

Oh, well I guess this turned out to be way off on the date and as an insider they've never proven themselves to be reliable on anything else before. So, not really a good source.

We don't really have to believe the rumor anymore.

The fact that PlayStation Japan accidentally tweeted out they acquired Bluepoint, is a lot more credible than any other rumor.

Pi is correct,.. that is what i was referring to.

This is pretty fascinating, confirms what many insiders claim and we've never been sure how prevalent it is. Sony seems to move things last minute all the time. From the sounds of it, FF16 was in the SoP at this point 24 hours ago.
