MCV/DEVELOP News, events, research and jobs from the games industry
We have it on very good authority that this will be the year that Team Ico finally presents its follow-up to much loved classics Ico and Shadow of the Colossus.”
That’s according to The Guardian, which has included the MIA Sony title in its ’15 most anticipated E3 games’ list.
Whether it’ll bear any relation to the game last shown at E3 in 2009 is anyone’s guess,” the paper adds.
For what it’s worth, MCV was last week told the same but was unable to get a second corroborating source so did not report the news. Plus, we’re pretty certain the same source told us the same thing last year.
Just this time last year Sony was having to debunk reports that the game, which has been in development since 2007, had been scrapped.
In August 2013 SCE Studios boss Shuhei Yoshida said that the company was waiting for the "right time to re-announce" the title, which some had speculated would be reborn alongside PS4 in 2013. Late last year creator Fumito Ueda, who actually left Sony in 2011, said the game was making progress under completely new conditions”.
The most recent update on the game came in February of this year when Sony asserted that development of the title is continuing.
