Some site soon publishes saying it is true.
A first party developer assisting in a multiplatform project? how often does that even happen 🤔
someone is going to reply to this with death stranding
It's the first time i've seen a Sony first party developer assisting in a multiplatform project! seems like sony wants to purchase remedy seriously!
Control base PS4 performance isn't that good though...
If Guerilla could give more tips to Remedy; even Horizon base PS4 is good.

What issues does Control have on base PS4?
On my PS4 slim, Horizon runs mostly great but definitely pushes the console to it's limits. I see texture pop-in for cutscenes, and attempting to suspend the game gives my console a momentary heart attack.
I read mostly about framerate that goes 18 to 20 FPS when things hectic.
This reminds me of Uncharted 2, which gave credits to other studios including Bungie and Infinity Ward.
"We try to be quite open with our technology and our process. We exchanged technology and ideas with other developers. We wanted to make sure we thanked everyone that helped us out in some way."

Ah... That's a bummer for folks who don't have a Pro or an X I guess.
What is going on here?
Control is a really fun game so far, I love the tech and the visual fidelity. Seems like a perfect fit for SIE.

To be completely honest, I really enjoyed Detroit, I think it deserves more success, but the game was heavily discounted (I bought it for 20$ in December 2018 and it was on PlayStation + in July 2019).
Yes, the game was a success, but I don't think it was a huge success, even if it was the fastest selling game from Quantic Dream ever.
Next gen can't come soon enough, Control struggling on PS4 and XB1 and performing really well on PC reminds me of Metro Exodus, same issues on base consoles and a good ass PC version. The developers are in need for new hardware asap.
Until now they had funding for their prototyping phase so they could show what they achieved to a publisher and get a full production funding deal.
Sounds like typical of your later generation games, really...
Based on the performance issues the game has, Remedy definitely needed the help. The platform they are most familiar with has awful performance. I shudder at the thought of what would've happened without help on PS4.
After TLG, instead of going to a publisher to fund the next game, they went for a game-fund.
That particular game fund gave Ueda a lot of freedom ( he didn't even have to promise to actually ship a game ) to basically afford his the past 3 years to do R&D, prototyping and game design brainstorming with his small team to crank out a playable prototype, which will then be used to pitch to a publisher.
They clearly played a lot of Fire Emblem 3H, sending cakes and visits to increase bonding points.
That is what im thinking. At this point they must just be messing with us lol
Okay, yeah, Sony is enjoying the speculation about the Remedy buyout a little bit too much at this point.
As of now, I'd be more surprised if the acquisition DOESN'T happen than I would be if it does.

After the CEO and the Co-founder sold some of their stock a few days ago, I doubt an acquisition is happening anytime soon. There's definitely something happening behind the scene tho more than just the exclusive content for Control.
acquiring them before making an exclusive will be much cheaper though (assuming the exclusive is successful), also if its true that sony first party studios assisted in the development in some form, maybe that was meant to try out working with remedy to see if an acquisition could work.
I don't really agree, honestly. From the sounds of it, Remedy is a little worried Control might bomb, and it's possible Sony is going to buy them out as a protective measure to keep them from cratering in case the game doesn't do well.
It's only missing Shawn Layden tweeting something like "Congratulations to our new stu- Remedy in launching control!"
i think they are referring to the CEO selling some of his stock in the company.
So I'm debating whether to pick Control up for PS4 or Xbox. Remedy has a history working with Microsoft, so that was what originally decided to go with. However, with rumors of Sony buying Remedy, I was thinking about getting this on PS4.
I know this such a small thing for people. But it'll bother me if my franchise trophy lists aren't in the same platform. Like it'll feel weird to me if my Control 100% is on Xbox while hypothetically I could have a Control 2 platinum trophy (in the case that Sony DOES buy Remedy).
Please help me decide lol
What's everyone's opinion on the chances that Sony will pick up Remedy?

At this point it seems like a 50/50 shot. There's a LOT of smoke for the rumors and all this hugging between Remedy and SCEWWS is a little too coincidental to ignore, but at the same time the buyout talks were a while ago so who knows if they moved anywhere.
I mean, same with MS and Double Fine/Ninja Theory, isn't it? If both companies think it's a good fit, why not?
I still dont believe in a buyout, Remedy made way too many moves to remain independent and sustainable since 2017.
Now, a collab between the two? I can definitely see that, and the current model Remedy has of multiple projects happening at the same time in different levles facilitates that

Price is most likely not a concern, its if they see a longterm future with Remedy as a first party studio. Imagine if they had acquired Ready at Dawn ahead of The Order: 1886 (based on their impressive work with PSP spin-offs).... they would have felt like it was a big mistake. Sony seems to do their buying only after a successful new PlayStation franchise has happened.
There really is not enough evidence to say that, remember Remedy has other projects and even an announced partnership with another publisher.
MS needed more studios, especially for Game Pass. Sony's first party has been performing lean and mean all this gen, thats the difference.
Uh...
If I have an Xbox X, I would buy for that one.
Or a powerful PC.
