Déraciné is completely unlike anything From Software has attempted before, but it's a magical time all the same.
FromSoftware, the developer behind the famous Dark Souls series, says the company has no plans for more VR games in the foreseeable future. This comes after the release of its only VR game to date, Déraciné, which released for the PSVR back in 2018 and received a mixed reception.
During an interview with Destructoid, Producer Masanori Takeuchi had some compelling things to say about developing for the platform.
Coffee writes:
"Stories about faeries leading fine people astray, devils waylaying travelers and princes locked away in towers fuelled my imagination. I was skeptical as a child but the environment in which the tales were recounted would ground the tale in real life and make it harder for me to push aside the ghost stories so lavishly told. Déraciné (from the makers of Bloodborne and Darksouls) has magically captured these stories and lovingly crafted a beautiful little tale that is perfectly told in VR."
Miyazaki clarified that Dark Souls Remastered and the upcoming Metal Wolf Chaos XD were requested by Bandai Namco and Devolver Digital, respectively, and are thus not included in the 3.5.
Asked by 4Gamer.net is this meant that the studio has two unannounced titles in production, Miyazaki said that is correct.
“While it isn’t the time to discuss details, they’re both [From Software]-esque games,” Miyazaki said. “We’ll need a little more time, but we’ll be able to tell everyone more about them once they take shape.”
Bloodborne 2?? These unannounced games probably won't release until next gen
