Gematsu: Final PlatinumGames ‘Platinum 4’ announcement set for April 1 (UPDATE: Sol Cresta, April fools joke)

[Deleted member 51691]

Maybe at noon in Japan time, then.

 

[StrangeRoboMemory]

Let's go

 

[Le Dude]

So this is definitely happening 4/1 in Japan? Sometime in the next 10 hours or so I'd imagine?

 

[PhantomArtifice]

I am so so excited to see what this announcement is. I'm sure it's going to be absolutely phenomenal, they're talking like this very very "Platinum" and as a Platinum mega fan I can't wait. It's gotta be a really big project.

It's definitely not Bayonetta 3 though, that's Nintendo's announcement, and will almost definitely be saved for a Direct or something of the sort.

 

[Sub Boss]

It could be anything, even Metroid :^D

 

[JCal]

Well, it'll be April 1st in the US in 1 minute.

Here we...go?

 

[NESpowerhouse]

Gurren Lagann game or bust

 

[Mentalist]

Well, it'll be April 1st in the US in 1 minute.

Here we...go?

Was hoping for CC2 to develop it but...

 

[modiz]

considering its listed for April 1st on both the EN and JP pages, it should happen anytime between now and the next 9 hours.

Dont get your hopes up, this is going to be a new IP.

 

[timshundo]

Everyone always goes to sequel predictions so lemme be the first to say its a new, exciting IP.

Or like a fighter game with all of Platinum's IPs.

 

[TheGreatMightyPoo]

They'll shock the world and it'll be a turn-based RPG.

 

[Cloud_Strife]

Hope it's Metal Gear Rising 2. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

TBH an actioney Platinum Games racer would be amazing. Especially if it channeled the Saturday morning cartoon style of games like Viewtiful Joe and the Wonderful 101.

[Tyrant Rave]

[rude]

I heard it's a Rodin spin-off that's half demon weapon crafting in the style of the Atelier games and half stylish action.

 

[Deleted member 31092]

Kamiya was waiting for the best coast! It's April 1st now!

[Crow Pudding]

I hope it's a visual novel dating sim with some farming elements.

Sure, I'll play a Suzanne Vega character action game:





EDIT: I imagine that last announcement was a joke, and the actual thing comes later? Because that seems too underwhelming to be real.
