Polyphony Digital studio founder Kazunori Yamauchi has revealed that he’s planning to continue working on the Gran Turismo game series into the future, and beyond next year’s Gran Turismo 7.
Phil Spencer and Microsoft have come under fire following the closure of multiple Bethesda-owned studios including Tango Gameworks.
wow haha.
i dont think he will resign. or will be kicked off.
if hes still here after everything in the past, this wont affect him unfortunately.
Xbox employees are bracing for what follows more layoffs.
Tom Warren: "I understand Hellblade II is another game that Microsoft has been considering for the PS5."
" Strategy has shifted from bringing more games to Game Pass to bringing more games to other platforms "
Gee. Can't imagine why
It's almost like Gamepass hasn't worked out the way they wanted and they keep lying to us that it's exceeded expectations.
People need to cancel their GP and buy games like Hellblade 2 in full. It's not going to magically solve everything, might not even make a dent but it's something.
Twisted Voxel writes: "We've almost reached the end of the 1st half of 2024, and Xbox has had more studio closures than first party game releases in the year so far."
Hellblade 2, Indiana Jones, Avowed, Towerborne, and Call of Duty are still to be released this year. Marcus Fenix collection to be added to the list with the Xbox showcase, hopefully.
Sony doesn't have to bother fighting the next Microsoft acquisition. The massive layoff by themselves should be enough to get the next big buy blocked.
So if MS hadn't spent $80 billion consolidating the industry just think of all the games and jobs that would have saved.
MS is a drain on gaming and have been nothing but a negative.
Tourist Trophy sequel please Kaz.
But if he want to do something new then I won't be mad I would be tired as well doing the same series for 25 years.
Please do, I know there’s Gran Turismo fans, but I feel like a different director could step in for the series and it wouldn’t change much. I’d rather see what else this guy can do. I’m not sure if he worked in it, but I remember Omega Boost from this dev studio. It was interesting, but not a knockout hit. I’d like to see what he can do now.
Better drag up that metacritic Kaz or you might have to.
A sequel to Omega Boost, perhaps?
