| twintail said: I sort of expected FireSprite to be the EU alternative to Insomniac since they seemed, at one point, to have like 3 projects in production. They had the Persistence update in 2021, and then Horizon VR this year. Hopefully they have the rumoured Twisted Metal for 2024 with something else in 2025. But of course , since they're also working on the Star Citizen MP mode, they aren't at full manpower for Sony yet. |
At one point they actually had 4 games in production. Horizon VR, rumored Twisted Metal (Multiplayer Action), some kind of "Action Shooter", and they also have some kind of "horror narrative game".
They cancelled the action shooter many months back, even before Deviation Games.
Horizon VR obviously finished. I haven't seen any indication of something new. I'm not sure if these people got folded into one of the other teams.
As it stands, it really only seems like they have two projects. One seems to be Twisted Metal, and the other is a horror narrative game (whatever that entails).
Firesprite appears to be done with Star Citizen:
This was last year:
The public timeline that CIG publishes, shows that Firesprite finished its work in March.
I'm still hopeful that some of the studios will get their ducks in a row.
I think there are some tricky dynamics. If you finish a game, and then start a new game every year for 6 years, you won't release a single game for 6 years, and then after that you'll start releasing a game every year. So there's a very lengthy transition time; and I get the impression that some of the studios are working in the middle of that transition. I'm hopeful that in like 3 or so years, they'll be pushing out games at a better rate.
