#Revengeance timelime series

The game is still a ways off with a vague 2013 target window. But it would be insulting to assume that meant that Platinum couldn’t do great work without him, especially considering he isn’t the only talent on staff but remains a missed opportunity. The creator of Devil May Cry, Okami, Viewtiful Joe and Bayonetta, Kamiya’s games have been replete with deep combo systems and memorable characters that created the type of game Revengeance strives to be. Days after the reveal of the KojiPro/Platinum Games collaboration, Kamiya went to his twitter account to address several of his fan’s questions. Their works have shown an electricity and eagerness to push boundaries and the gameplay shown in the Revengeance trailer appears more honest to the concept at the core of Kojima Production’s game than what that company had demonstrated on their own.īut what is most surprising is the notable absence of what would arguably be Platinum’s Games most important addition to the title- Hideki Kamiya.

And yet, it seems almost necessary because even with the justification built into Raiden’s history, trying to sell an action game to a frothing fan-base of a series that is so famous for its methodical, tense gameplay and self-serious yet absurd narrative stylings is risky.īut ultimately, if this game is going to succeed, it has to be built at Platinum Games.

It’s fascinating to get the sort of behind the scenes feature that would usually be relegated to a track on a special editions bonus disc this early in a titles development cycle.
