We will surely die too
In an interview with 4Gamer, Hidetaka Miyazaki indicates that the next game from FromSoftware is already in its final stage of developmentwhile the Japanese studio continues to recruit to work on always more projects in parallel.
In 2018, FromSoftware confirmed that it was developing ” 3 and a half games“. Pell-mell, we found there Ax: Shadows Die Twicele visual novel Uprooted exclusive at PSVR et without pretention, and the masterful Elden Ring, available for only a few months. So there is no more just a game to discoverand it’s undoubtedly the one FromSoftware is finishing up.
And why not a new Armored Core ? Avant Dark Soulsthe Japanese studio was best known for sa franchise of highlights. At the beginning of the year, a strange survey circulated in Japan tried to collect feedback on potential expectations around the franchise, with also offering details on a possible new game. Sometime later, des screenshots that accompanied the survey even leaked.
A return d’Armored Core is nothing out of the ordinary, and Miyazaki has already mentioned a desire to return to his first love of SF, but for the moment it is impossible to confirm if it is indeed this new game which is currently in the “final stages of its development.«
FromSoftware therefore seems to have found a pace of work quite sustained. In the interview, Miyazaki indicates that other projects are also in production at FromSoftwarebut that it will not necessarily ensure The direction. Of course, it is still too early to reveal its nature. Sequels to previous games, perhaps? Miyazaki finds that there are as many advantages as disadvantages to develop on an existing franchise what to start from scratch. Everything is possible, therefore.
The creative director of Demon’s Souls, Dark Souls et Elden Ring also speak of ideas that he would like to explore the medium to long term. Dark fantasy clearly inhabits the creator, but if given the chance he would like to work on something much more abstract compared to what he has achieved in the past.
After Elden Ring who was already pulling the rope quite a bit on that side, we just want to be surprised.
