PCGamesN Sunday, December 19, 2021 7:34 AM  After creating one of the best games of the year, Psychonauts 2 developer Double Fine Productions has now shifted its focus to the future - and is apparently "splitting up into various teams" to work on multiple "new projects", although there's a possibility none of them are Psychonauts 3. Psychonauts 2 is one of the top games of 2021. Our reviewer called it "Double Fine's best game" and "rich and rewarding", and most critics seem to agree. With the renewed accolade and the support from Microsoft and Xbox, who now own Double Fine, all eyes are on what the studio is up to next. In a recent Fig update for Psychonauts 2's backers, Double Fine confirms there will still be "tweaks and fixes" for Psychonauts 2 but the studio has now moved on to its next game - or rather, multiple games plural, as the update says that "the studio is already splitting up into various teams and starting different projects that we think you'll enjoy". |
PCGamesN Sunday, December 19, 2021 6:30 AM  On a stream yesterday to celebrate the birthday of the Final Fantasy series, upcoming action-RPG Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin had a few minutes of new gameplay shown off - as well as the game's opening cutscene, which features a dramatic recreation of Final Fantasy I's iconic beginning. Yesterday marked the 34th anniversary of the original Japanese release of Final Fantasy I on the NES - and the entire Final Fantasy series - so to celebrate Square Enix Japan held a two-hour long stream where they discussed the beginnings of the franchise and how Final Fantasy I connects to the upcoming sort-of sequel/remake Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin. This included how enemies and locations from Final Fantasy I were being recreated in 3D, but also the game's full opening cutscene - complete with its epic recreation of the intro to Final Fantasy I, where the four warriors of light cross the bridge out of Cornelia and stare out at the castle in the distance. Cornelia Castle is a lot bigger and more imposing in the new version. RELATED LINKS: Upcoming PC games, Best fantasy games, Best RPGs on PC |
