Elden Ring and its growth, Shadow of the Erdtree, have been massively profitable for developer FromSoftware, however what’s subsequent? In keeping with president and CEO Hidetaka Miyazaki, the studio has “a number of initiatives within the works” throughout “all kinds of genres.”
Whereas accepting the Grand Award for Shadow of the Erdtree throughout the PlayStation Associate Awards 2024 Japan Asia, Miyazaki stated (by way of GAME Watch), “We’ve got a number of initiatives working, and they’re in all kinds of genres. A few of them are directed by me, whereas others are dealt with by others. I feel we’ll be capable to present you a brand new FromSoftware in quite a lot of methods, so please look ahead to it.”
What these initiatives may very well be is anybody’s guess. Followers have clamored for a Bloodborne remaster/remake/sequel over the 12 months, however given the success of Elden Ring, you would need to surprise if FromSoftware would prioritize a follow-up. Then there’s Armored Core, with the latest entry, Armored Core 6: Fires of Rubicon, promoting over three million items worldwide. It wouldn’t be shocking if the developer sought one other mainline title within the coming years.
The information can be intriguing on account of experiences of Sony wanting to amass Kadokawa Company, FromSoftware’s dad or mum firm (which the latter confirmed it obtained a letter of intent about). Whether or not it will impression the previous’s need to amass Kadokawa stays to be seen, so keep tuned.
