What Happened To inFamous?

Once a premier PlayStation franchise, the superhero based series hasn’t seen a new entry for over five years.

[Nyxus]

The studio is working on Ghost of Tsushima.

[Neonridr]

yep, they are busy polishing a new IP which could end up being fantastic.

[343_Guilty_Spark]

They making a game

[mikeslemonade]

Spider-Man

[NecrumOddBoy]

Yeah, they created and amazing IP, then it's even more awesome sequel with one of the best stand alone DLC's in Festival of Blood. After that they made Second Sun and First Light. Now after a successful series, they are working on Ghost of Tsushima, which looks like it's going to be one of the most epic games ever made. It looks like the closest we will get to an Akira Kurasawa game. I wish I can play it in Black and White. I also think I may play it with subs on and Japanese V/O.

Long story short, SuckerPunch is kicking ass and Gamingbolt continues to be a waste of the internet's bandwidth.

[Shane Kim]

Perfectly summarized.

[Teflon02]

Unless your tv's ancient and even then you should be able to. Make one of your colour profiles black and white lol. Probably would be pretty cool to play like that

[CorndogBurglar]

Dude. Playing Ghost of Sushisama in black and white would be awesome. And if what Teflon02 said below is accurate I just might.

[Ceaser9857361]

You guys should tweet or post it in the community. I am sure Sony & Sucker Punch will listen and introduce a black&white mode. The support system for PS exclusives this gen has be great.

necrum

thank you for posting so others don't have to

and just to add to your post thanks to sony for not forcing SP into making more infamous games and allowing the studio instead to work on something new

[No Way]

How big are they? Is it only one studio - so all hands on deck?

[AK91]

And we're done here

[isarai]

They wanted to do something new, and they are with Ghosts of Tsushima.

[OG_TK_Cole]

Smh @ Gaming Bolt.

[IMissJimRyan]

Do you know something that always catches my attention in these articles about "what happened to ___________?"
Never ask that about Nintendo series. Zelda takes 6 years to come out with a new game, Mario another 5, Metroid over 10, but now if Sony, Ubisoft, Microsoft, Capcom or any other gives more than 2 years off for a franchise, it's the end of the world. .

[OG_TK_Cole]

Man @LocoMorales im so tired of some of these Video Game websites. Infamous Second Son came out March 21, 2014, which was this generation. And currently they are working on Ghost of Tsushima. How does Gaming Bolt keep their press passes???

[SyntheticForm]

Silly Gamingbolt with these "What Happened to?" articles. Nothing "happened" to it.

You'd think a site so well connected to "devs" would know that Infamous developer Sucker Punch is working on Ghost of Tsushima. The last Infamous game was made near the start of the gen - it's not like another entry is 'off the table' or the series has been 'forgotten.' Not like it's been 15-20 years.

Such dramatic, desperate journalism.

[Inzo]

It'll be back at some point I hope and I hope they continue with Cole's story but lets first give SPP the time to finish off the fantastic looking and my most anticipated game of the remainder of this gen, GoT.

[Traecy]

Working on GoT & possibly another i.p. seeing that it's been 5 years since their last game & dlc.

[PhoenixUp]

Ghost of Tsushima happened

[FanboySpotter]

Cole probably still laying on the boat alive

[Ratchet75]

Gamingbolt everyone 👋👋👋

[Blank]

To think they get press passes to events and still can't figure stuff out.

[sin7279]

Gtfo gamingshit!

[kayoss]

What happened? They didnt milk the living crap out of it. thats what happened.

[Juusterey]

Does not compute in the modern day i guess

[KillZallthebeast]

One thing I have noticed from sony is they never force a sequel immediately despite its success. I of course assume they encourage it, but allow devs to avoid burnout and tackle entierly different and new IPs between. Their insomniac acquisition might support this considering sony wanted to buy them years ago. Insomniac has been know to want to try new things all the time and it shows.

[OneEyedSteve]

They made 5 games in 5 years... I think that's enough , they have taken a break and moved on for the time being which is good for everyone. Typical clueless Gamingbolt.

[william_cade]

Must be a slow news day?

[KickSpinFilter]

That's good we don't need multiple releases of an IP on the same console. They are working on Ghost of Tsushima.
Then perhaps then on PS5 we see a new Infamous game. Sounds dope to me.

[Godmars290]

The third game had a new protagonist who's story was pretty much done in his game?

[King_Noctis]

It’s taking a well-deserved break while its developer focusing on a new IP. I like this move.

[Imalwaysright]

I've never been an Infamous fan so it looks like that Sucker Punch moved on to do bigger and better things aka Ghost of Tsushima.

[BlaqMagiq1]

We need an inFamous remaster collection ASAP with 60fps

[EmperorDalek]

Second Son was terrible, Ghost of Tsushima looks good. No need for another Infamous.

[badboyz09]

Battle royal happend

[generic-user-name]

What happened to The Witcher series? It's been 4 years since CDPR have released a main entry in the franchise!!!

[SyntheticForm]

Lol.

Sony's biggest studios crank out 1-2 games a gen if we're lucky and there's good reason for that. I fully expect TLOU III (if there is one) to release at the end of next gen.

Gamingbolt asking "What happened to Infamous" when the last Infamous game came out in 2014 is the height of stupidity, yet it's also calculated stupidity - they know by asking such stupid questions people will to rush to their site and call them out on their idiocy.

Gamingbolt wants attention and they absolutely 'do not' care if it's negative. They 'just' want clicks.

[P_Bomb]

What happened to GTA? Last game was 2013, six months before Second Son. Death comes for us all! :p

[Sharingan_no_Kakashi]

They're relatively small and they've been working on Ghost of Tsushima for 32 years.

[teedogg80]

What the heck happened to Prototype also?

[zodiac909]

Is this an ongoing trend?? First what happened to Gran Turismo, now what Happened to infamous..I suppose what happened to Uncharted, Ratchet & clank, Parappa the rapper, twisted metal, Killzone are all next??

[Juusterey]

They realised that working on new games was a thing
and that not every franchise has to go on forever

[FernDiggidy]

Working on Ghost, you dipshits.

inFamous Second IS fantastic btw!!! Must play.

[HardTruths]

Who cares it was a dogsh*t series with terrible characters and boring 'unlock this tower and follow the minimap' gameplay.

Oh i mean umm ... it had choices! they affected the story! *rolls eyes*

Ghosts of Tsushima looks good though

[SilverDemon]

Nothing. Just ended
You don't need to milk a franchise to no end
It's good to let go when the time is right

[RGB]

Sony let their developers move on, or reinvent themselves. Infamous was fun but we don't want them to keep making the same exact game 3 generations in a row like other platform force their own developers.

[Magog]

The shooting mechanics were so slow and horrible it ruined the game for me.

[ShadowWolf712]

A new IP happened.

[Imortus_san]

The last one was a major let down, nothing compared to the first two.
