When you think Platinum games in 2020 you think we might be hearing more about Bayonetta 3. But it seems they have a lot more instore than that. Today the company stated that we should be expecting a lot of big and small announcements.
Kenichi Sato – PlatinumGames President
“Happy new year to you all.
Looking back at 2019, we released Astral Chain as a completely original new action game, the first in six years since The Wonderful 101. Furthermore, I believe the 2017-released NieR: Automata surpassing 4 million in worldwide shipments and digital sales was also a big topic. This was all possible thanks to support from all the fans, and I’d like to take this opportunity to express my gratitude.
Last year, we said that 2019 would be a year where the curtain rises for a new stage for PlatinumGames. We’re a bit late on that, but I believe we’ll have several big announcements to deliver early in the new year, so please look forward to that. That’s a promise I’ll definitely keep [laughs].
This year is the year the Tokyo Olympics will be held. I believe everyone around the world will be watching Japan. As a game studio representing Japan, this year we here are PlatinumGames are looking to go all-out, to get attention from fans around the world, and bring smiles to everyone.”
Atsushi Inaba – Representative Studio Head
“In the games industry where each year is a challenge, I’m immensely grateful to head into yet another year with PlatinumGames.
Starting early on in the year, I believe we’ll continue to roll out various announcements, big and small, throughout the year.
The company, as well as me personally, will continue taking on new challenges, and I want to give it everything we’ve got.”
Makes you wonder what else this fine studio has instore for us doesn’t it. Good news we will find out soon.
