What happened with WiLD for PS4?
- Thread starter Bubukill
- Start date
The game is still in development according to Michel Ancel. I expect it to release somewhere in 2020.

Doesn't matter one is developed by Ubi and the other by Wild Sheep Studio.
Waypoint actually investigated this a while back.
Basically... still in development, zero ETA.

Ancel is working on BG&E2 as a director and i'm pretty sure this title has a high priority compared to WiLD.
Looks like it's "WILD for PS5" now.
Wild Sheep Studio and Sony are working on it.
We have. We've had a few threads asking this.
Ancel used to post about it on Instagram but then BGE2 was fully revealed and I imagine that's his main focus.
They say it's still coming but I have no doubt it's a PS5 title at this point. Ancel's focus seems to be on BG&E2 far more right now.
I never understood that logic. Why would they want to lose potential 100 mil+ customers?
It's a super small studio and ancel is also working on beyond good and evil. Maybe a PS5 launch title now ?
It's pretty much dead. Ancel's on good terms with Ubisoft again and is making Beyond Good and Evil 2. He doesn't need to be independent anymore.
It isn't. Sony and Wild Sheep Studio are working on it.

There are signs of its development.
Might be more that I missed, but here are some I remembered:
May 22, 2019
Art Director job listing directly mentions they are developing WiLD - "We are developing WiLD, an open world action adventure published by Sony Interactive Entertainment."

Because they want to sell new hardware? Are you going to ask that question at the PS5 reveal event when they show other exclusives?
There are more than these old "signs".
Wild Sheep already explained this year that they are working on it, together with Sony. And how much money they are receiving from Sony every mont / how much they need every month.
Thx Mr. Newsman,
Yeah it's most likely moving to PS5. I wonder what the budget for this game is, I wouldn't expect it to be as big as BGE2 but it looks ambitious.
When Ancel announced he was making BG&E2 and WiLD at the same time I feared WiLD wouldn't be out for a very long time......I'm just glad it's still in development,it's a cool concept.
The game was announced on PS4 and is developed for it for 5+ years will all it's limitations in mind. Each asset, graphical effect was created for the PS4 but because the game is taking a little longer than expected to develop they will transfer all of it to a completely new hardware with non-existant playerbase? It's definately a PS4 game. Cross-gen for the PS5 possibly.
Ah yeah, this too. Forgot about this and the Waypoint article as well.
It's been five years and the director is working full time on another project. Actions speak louder than words here.
At best it'll pull a NiOh or FFXV where it's significantly retooled for next gen, but that would still prove my point that the game at least as we know it is dead.

So you think it's going to release before the end of next year? I don't see that happening, just like last guardian it'll be ported to next-gen and it'll be even easier because both platforms are x86. The game is still in development according to this thread so unless you think the games coming out in the next 12 months what other options are there?
Because people that own a new console are more desperate for new games than people that can chose out of 1000s of games.
A complete studio (Wild Sheep Studio) is working on it and they explained it this year. Actions speak louder indeed.
It's alive and in development.
It looked inspired from classics like BotW and Elders Scrolls. Can't wait to see an update, i would love for a new mechanics or two and a PS5 showpiece game.
