In a new interview, the Japanese studio revealed more about its plans (while we also expect the Nintendo Switch-exclusive Bayonetta 3 coming from them at the end of October).
The Japanese The famous ones Inaba Atsushi, Kamiya Hideki, and a newly joined Yamane Takeo spoke about the changes within the company (they are so serious that they refer to it as PlatinumGames Reborn) and about their upcoming projects. These include Project GG, and Kamiya says the game has grown significantly since its initial announcement thanks to ideas from the rest of the team. It was originally supposed to be a simple action game, but it has become much more since its announcement.
They will have similar core gameplay mechanics to the Unite Morph seen in The Wonderful 101 and Bayonetta’s Witch Time. Kamiya added that the studio will not reveal any more details about the game before 2023, so until then it is pointless to guess when or in what year it will be released, because Kamiya admitted: if necessary, he will delay the release of his game as long as necessary, if it is good enough start with quality.
PlatinumGames is also working on a new IP created in-house. All we know about it is that it’s going to be huge and they’re going to need more people for all future projects. The goal is to reach one thousand employees. So back to Project GG: at the 2020 announcement, Inaba hinted that it wasn’t far from release, but increasing its size required more development time. At that time, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, PC, and Nintendo Switch were still the four goals, later with PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series, but even then he did not know when the game would be ready, but he did not estimate the wait at that time to be three years, but He didn’t even say 6-12 months about his first self-owned and self-published game.
So we’ll have to wait for Kamiya’s next game, and it wouldn’t be a big surprise if it finally hits PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, and PC in late 2023.
