Sony Bend’s Vita Game to Have Online Multiplayer, Suggests Job ListingUncharted: Golden Abyss was one of the Vita’s best games of 2012, showing that a mini-Drake can be just as sexy impressive. Sadly, the game had no online component, so we couldn’t make use of the Vita’s utterly ignored online capabilities. That may be all set to change, though, as we’ve uncovered that developer Sony Bend’s next game will probably include online multiplayer. We previously discovered that the developer was working on an AAA Vita game, and now we’ve found a job listing from the studio focused on online gaming. “SCEA’s Bend Studio has an exciting opportunity for a Senior Staff Network Programmer!” it reads, adding:
We don’t know what game they’re working on, but another Uncharted would make sense – they have the engine and the assets, and the franchise is incredibly popular. Uncharted 2 also was the first to bring multiplayer to the series, so the second Vita Uncharted having multiplayer would mirror that trend. Sony Bend is best known for Syphon Filter, however, so that’s always a possibility. |
Quoting this for more exposure. More fuel to the fire that Uncharted Vita 2 is going to be to Golden Abyss as Among Thieves was to Drake's Fortune. Sounds pretty good. And Bend really nailed the online aspect of their PSP games in my opinion, so this has all the right pieces to be really, really good.
