No.
I dont think we'll see it until Deathloop is out from Arkane Lyon. A Prey sequel with more and diverse enemies would be amazing.
I still believe those Vampire IP rumours though.

Maybe? But is not a Prey sequel. AFAIK they're working on a vamipre game.
Yeah, and MS has the same clause with similar wording which people latched onto back in 2013 but never prevented PS4 from having better versions
When looking this up I saw they have one for pro/x/series/ps5 patches now too
I love those conspiracy theory images.
I honestly hope this happens and it's at the end of this fighter pass so we can get "'Master Chief finishes the fight!"
There was a rumor floating around that the next Arkane Austin game is similar to the original concept of Prey 2 with the focus on bounty hunting in a huge city. I hope they stuck with that
Nintendo will prolly do a double smash reveal for e3 this year like they did with hero/banjo, so hopefully he caps it off.
I remember people citing the Xbox parity clause as the reason some indie games were skipping Xbox at the time, saying they'd shot themselves in the foot by demanding indie devs do extra work on cosmetic stuff or something similar. I think the Xbox clause was more focused on content than technical features like the Playstation one, but as a player I'm not bothered by either of them.
A vampire game? Cool. I'm up for anything they want to do. I'm just in love with Prey right now so I wanted a sequel lol
I think that clause was that late ports needed added content. Although both Microsoft and Sony had that type of clause for a time (and I wouldn't be surprised if Nintendo did as well).
My compete speculation guess gor the spni off is an age of empires/mythology thrid person narrative game that is co-produced by Crytek or Io Barcelona and Worlds Edge and is like a more robust extension of what Ryse tried to be.
That would definitely be a winner in my eyes.
Xbox and Bethesda can't show Deathloop at E3, though. It would be a really good way to distract from the fact that Deathloop is exclusive and Arkane Austin might not have had the same development delays that Lyon has run into.
I think it's just that if other versions of the game are getting features/content that's possible on playstation, also add it to the playstation version. Like A DirextX 12 Ultimate feature would be fine to be Xbox/PC exclusive but RT wouldn't be.
Everything in that contract is pretty industry standard.
Again, industry standard.
All the red boxed second of the contract says is that the game has to be the best it can be on the PlayStation platform, hence "material platform limitations" and that the game can't be released with a new package and exclude PlayStation (think Dragon Quest XI).
The other one is a pretty standard first right of refusal.
Just because y'all aren't used to seeing standard legalese, doesn't mean it's out-of-the-ordinary. 🙄
Ah ok, for some reason it read to me like 'game is not allowed to run better on other platforms'..but I obviously don't know shit about how these contracts are routinely worded.
The forced parity thing has always been this way no? The gamepass ban is lame though.
Yea, these contracts aren't really meant to be seen by people outside of legal, marketing and maybe one or two other teams, haha.
It's all just highlighting that the developer has to push the game as hard as they can on the console and can't half ass it on the platform (in this case PlayStation) and release a much better version elsewhere. So they are commonly structured in a "Game will make full use of the platform's featureset" way.
There is no forced parity within this contract and anyone telling you otherwise is suspect. The gamepass bit is part of first right of refusal, which means if Capcom wants to put the game on a streaming service, PlayStation has the right to a deal first.
Again, standard stuff when it comes to covering marketing costs.
Sony would have to be really asleep at the wheel to not have something about Game Pass in their contracts. I don't really have an issue with it. It's clearly not hurting GP that bad.
I agree the contract reads like pretty standard stuff to me.
It's more like the kid next door you don't get along with but your parents make you play with them anyway.
I'm pretty sure it was launch parity that was the big problem for indie games. Xbox wouldn't let you come over if you'd launched on another platform earlier.
There were a lot of issues for indies in those days, but that was a major one.
Xbox Series S arrived today! Unfortunately been busy with work-related items since its arrival, so only been able to download games from Game Pass. I can finally play through generations of Xbox exclusives that have eluded me due to being primarily PlayStation-focused for a couple decades.
Square Enix: yes, i know that Company made a declaration about this rumor, but It could be a PR strategy (the same for Insomniac).
Heh, thats my record) I wonder how it could appear even here.
I captured only this part because have pdf of presentation.

They already went big with Bethesda. I think that what they will focus on is getting their production pipeline right, getting some Game Pass deals in place while choosing whatever acquisitions come next. For the price, teams and IP, Bethesda was more valuable than any other publisher out there.
I meant Sony buy them lol. They are basically tying up Capcom for the next 7 years with this timed nonsense
I expect early Fall. if it was releasing in the Summer/around E3 we would've heard about it by now. I expect there to be a blitz of games (both 1st and 3rd party) going into Game Pass in Q3 and Q4 to push not only hardware sales but also drive Game Pass subs
I thought for sure it'd be earlier, but now I wouldn't expect it before september.
I think they're going to try to have one major release from Xbox each month after E3.
July: Flight Sim
August: Grounded 1.0
September: Psychonauts 2
October: Age 4
November: Halo: Infinite
It's a little sad that we got nothing from Microsoft since last year ( yeah i know gamepass etc.. And outrider thanks to gamepass feel like it was a microsoft game.)
But i really want a little more than that from Microsoft ( i have to say i am really about the serie x or gamepass in general).
On ps5, i did play in the mean time, miles morales, returnal is coming now and Ratchet too. Kena even it's not a sony game, we know it's coming for july.
For Microsoft we just know) 2021 for the ascent, and psychonaut. :/ ( i just remember that the medium was there haha and i loved it)
Nice i got the series s too is a fantastic console, bought one for my brother too and he loved it too
What this document tells me first and foremost is that we can totally expect games with Xbox marketing to come to GP sooner or later (like what happened with Dirt 5, Second Extinction, The Falconeer). That's why Watch Dogs Legion is a super likely candidate for soon-ish.
