Shuhei Yoshida Says Days Gone is a 2018 Title
- Thread starter Aokiji
- Start date
It really has to be, because TLOU2 is very likely going to be an early/mid 2019 game. It would destroy DG.
Well it wasn't gonna release the same year as TLOU II and was clearly done
really wish they would throw more accurate dates out there, seasons or months, just something

No way this game releases next year. I'll be shocked if it does as we've seen barely anything on it.
2019 is my bet. But we'll see.

They did that in the first 2 years of PS4 and had to delay a lot of games and people complained about that. So now they try to be 100% sure that they'll make it to the date they announce.
Does it really matter tho? They are coming next year and thats great.

it's this exact reason they haven't given dates. That way when they say them they are accurate.
Targeting August/September would be the best window I think, at least judging from now. But who knows, maybe the game will even have what it takes to be successful during the big november/december period.
The higher budget Sony 1st/2nd party 2018 releases should be something like:
God of War, Detroit, Days Gone, Spider-Man, Dreams, Ghost of Tsushima.
That's a good year for singleplayer!
2019: The Last of Us II, Death Stranding.

Barely anything? I think that we've seen pretty much everything there is to it. Couple of trailers and several gameplay walkthroughs - there were games which released with less than this.
Man sure seems this game had a rework or troubles being made sure seems like it was pushed back a year to me. Seemed like with e3 2016 reveal if it had released right now this window and not closer to last of us 2 would have been much better of a test if Sony Bend could be a big boy developer and not a little guy. Or the e3 2016 reveal was rushed to fill a e3 void. I do not know.
Ghost of Tsushima also 2019. Not possible for 2018 as it is still earl I think.
Nah. They made a huge point about revealing it late in the development process and close to release.
And Sucker Punch are among those that always delivers on time.
Well make those cross platform with visual upgrades for ps5 and problem is solved
They have not showed any gameplay so far, and I don't think it is ready to release next year. Lets see, but I am not having hopes on this as Sony already has so many big titles slated for next year, and they need some to spread out for 2019 to give some room for each title to sell well.
PS5 not releasing in 2019 (may be they will announce), and it will be 2020 (may be like Switch release around March as this is backwards compatible so makes sense).
It does seem far enough long but something has to slip out of 2018. We know Death Stranding and TLOU2 have no dates so they are 2019+. I'm guessing Medievil remaster is too since it had no date.
Ghost of Tsushima, Shadow of the Colossus Remake, God of War, Dreams, Spider Man, Days Gone is a killer first party lineup and when you add heavily promoted exclusives like Detroit it becomes even more staggering.

Yep DG looked to be pretty far along actually. If they say 2018 I can definitely believe it. This is one of the Sony exclusives I'm less interested in but it could turn out as a surprise. Together with GoW, Spidey & Colossus remake, 2018 is looking pretty good for Sony.
There's no way in hell Ghost of Tsushima launches next year. That and The Last of Us II are 2019, Death Stranding is 2020 at best.
watch they trick us all and TLoU part 2 part 1 comes out January 1st and it be episodic like FF7 is going to be! lol
A linear scripted Manhunt would destroy an open world Macgyver with zombies game?
I do not see how a whole different game in a different genre would destroy another.
My guess is Ghost of Tsushima is a 2018 title as well. Not only did Sony already hint that with this game they were aiming for a shorter announcement to release window, but InFamous Second Son came out in March 2014, 3 and a half years ago. Sucker Punch has clearly been working on Ghost of Tsushima for some time.
Not really. Detroit is Spring, Shadow of the Colossus has a date, Spider-Man and God of War are both pinned for the first half of 2018 too for the time being. Which leaves Days Gone and Dreams for the second half, possibly.
Thought it would be 2018. Looking forward to it. In a sucker for any game with zombies as the enemy!
Also PS4 has some tasty games coming in the next 12 months. God of War, Spiderman, Days Gone, Detroit and Dreams all headed for 2018.

A fall 2018 release date would mean Ghost of Tsushima had a roughly 4.5 year dev cycle (on the basis they started working on it only after the release of InFamous Second Son). Pretty sure that's long enough, especially given they already had a competent next-gen engine in place with their last game.
There are definitely similarities, which could be an issue when it comes to marketing. They're both post apocalyptic games set in the US, where you have to fight zombie like creatures. They both have a highly realistic art style with a focus on overgrown environments.
So if you have the sequel to one of the most acclaimed games from last gen coming up against this new IP, which on the surface seems quite similar, then it could end up being an issue for Days Gone.
Horizon ZD was 6-7 years, Dreams also around 7 years, that's give you a better picture of how much time WWS need to make a new IP.
I was definitely expecting something a bit more concrete. If it wasn't for them mentioning that it was playable on the floor, I would've forgotten that it was even there.
They've released like multiple 20+ minute gameplay videos of it.
It seems fairly far along to me in terms of development.
If you only watch the story trailer then maybe but its easy to see the huge difference if you watch the gameplay trailers.
