I'm expecting a

"We've finished working on Souls titles for the time being, we want to try something new.

So we've created a new IP, that plays exactly like Souls but with minor differences"

 

[E-flux]

Please let it be a new Armored core or a Tenchu.. Or at least something similar to those.

 

[Renekton]

It says "2017 -" so in that context they are not promising 2017 release date for anything.

Also "Next Title" doesn't necessarily mean new IP.

 

[oldmario]

That's their official youtube, yes? If so, I'm removing the rumor part of the title.

their twitter account tweeted a video from the same channel so yep

 

[TreIII]

...Some type of Mecha game? Please?

 

[blue_phazon]

NX?

Didn't FROM say they Nintendo consoles don't appeal to them because of the demographics or something? Can't see them making anything for NX

 

[DarkoMaledictus]

PC, all I wanted to hear

 

[kevm3]

King's Field VR

 

[MilkBeard]

I believe that there's a mistake in interpreting that video.

It's not talking about one specific game. "title" is the usual mistake when translating from Japanese. Japanese doesn't have plural and singular. It probably means "titleS"
"2017-" means "2017 and beyond." (notice the "-")

"PS4, Xbox One, PC, Playstation Vr..." (notice the "...").

Means that they will develop for those platforms and possibly more.

The correct interpretation should be that in the future they're gonna develop for PS4, Xbox One, PC, PlayStation VR and more (so yeah, possibly also NX).

IE: it doesn't say anything specific about a specific game, but more about their general intentions for the next few years.

That actually makes more sense. Having a title hit all those platforms AND Playstation VR would be a headscratcher. I would assume a PSVR title would either be a Sony codeveloped exclusive, or it would also be hitting Oculus as well as a VR only game.

 

[ponpo]

New title needs a shocking news attached to it.

VRmored Core baby!

What's the fastest paced VR game currently out? The dashing speed of recent AC games in VR sounds disorienting.

 

[Ratrat]

Echo Night 4 please....

It would seriously sell me on VR.

 

[cheezcake]

VR with FROM level art design sounds amazing, VR with FROM level technical competence not so much. I'm also not convinced how good it will be given that it's not VR centric, it would have to be a cockpit game for that to work so mechas inbound I guess.

 

[DriftingSpirit]

Bloodborne 2 will be made all the sweeter given the long wait. It should benefit from them taking a break anyway.

I look forward to whatever they produce.

 

[MilkBeard]

It says "2017 -" so in that context they are not promising 2017 release date for anything.

Also "Next Title" doesn't necessarily mean new IP.

We know they are developing a new IP, though. And their output in the last few years has been a release every year. I would say it's very possible they will release another game next year at some point.

 

[BloodFeastislandMan]

I'll be looking Forward to whatever they develop, they have a nearly spotless game record imo

 

[Soulflarz]

Not sure if serious....that's Dark Souls 3.

Was asking cause the graphics looked really good for ds3.

And I'm running it on a 980...

 

[SneakyStephan]

Would make sense considering they've been releasing a game every year in March/April for 3 years in a row.

Man how the hell do they release a game every year.

DS3 was amazing for being made in such a short time if that's true, I hope they can keep up that quality (and don't instead shit out another dark souls 2 *shudder*)

FROM has multiple teams. Dark Souls III wasn't made in a year.

That makes sense then, it seems way too polished (art, world, voice acting, gameplay, assets) for being made in that little time

So I guess the 2017 will be by another team again then? I wonder what the ds3 team will make next

It looks like it's from the game, with some added 'flame effect' to make the logo look cooler.

 

[Napalm_Frank]

I think the main reason to doubt Bloodborne 2 is that Miyazaki has spent about nine months now talking about how he wants From to focus on things that aren't like Dark Souls for the next ~5 years or so even if it's a bad business decision, because he feels it's good for the company creatively.

Team Ninja rubbin their hands.

 

[NightShift]

Yes! This has to be rebooted Armoured Core or a new mecha-Souls IP. Sucks that we're not getting Bloodborne 2 but I'm still happy either way.

 

[Abriael]

That actually makes more sense. Having a title hit all those platforms AND Playstation VR would be a headscratcher. I would assume a PSVR title would either be a Sony codeveloped exclusive, or it would also be hitting Oculus as well as a VR only game.

Incidentally, we also already knew that they were on board with PlayStation VR, it was announced in the developer list at GDC.

 

[Soriku]

Team Ninja rubbin their hands.

Dark Souls 3 has two DLC packs coming out, later this year and 2017 respectively, so I'm not sure they should be celebrating

 

[benzy]

Otogi 3 let's go

 

[fertygo]

King Quest VR

EDIT its King's field, wrong title lol

 

[Kouriozan]

Didn't FROM say they Nintendo consoles don't appeal to them because of the demographics or something? Can't see them making anything for NX

They did make a sequel to Lost Kingdoms Gamecube though, but you're probably right as they stopped making games like that.

 

[Durante]

What's the fastest paced VR game currently out?

Either Holopoint or Holoball. (Neither is comparable though)

 

[Lingitiz]

Don't think this really means anything. Does anyone really doubt From will make another multiplatform game? They are a multiple project studio. The better question is if the Verendus rumor about the deal with Sony bring got 3 games is true.

 

[Hiltz]

Here's the comment made by the director of Dark Souls 2:

Wii U never came up, and we never doubted that (decision) either. It was more of a company decision, so I wasn’t the one that decided this, but I think the audience for the Wii U is a lot different from the audience for Dark Souls.

So isn't going to be surprise when From Software turns out to have nothing planned for NX either.

 

[FF Seraphim]

Just give me my god damn Armored Core VR! I do not care that somehow simulating my eyes traveling at 1000 km/h might make me throw up! GIVE IT TO ME!!

 

[McArkus]

Waiting for 2017!!!

 

[KingdomHeartsFan]

I'm ready for a new IP from them.

 

[Deleted member 465307]

NX?

Any hope lies in that ellipsis. I'm not sure how much that's worth, though.

 

[Cipher Peon]

Lost Kingdoms III let's goooooooo

 

[OrbitalBeard]

Don't think this really means anything. Does anyone really doubt From will make another multiplatform game? They are a multiple project studio. The better question is if the Verendus rumor about the deal with Sony bring got 3 games is true.

Has any Verendus rumor ever come to fruition? Honest question.

Metal Wolf. Metal Wolf. Metal Wolf. Metal Wolf.

 

[UrbanRats]

I hope VR teaches them to solve their frame pacing issues, once and for all.

 

[MilkBeard]

Pretty sure he's been right a few times. He leaked FF7 Remake, if I recall.

 

[OrbitalBeard]

Pretty sure he's been right a few times. He predicted FF7 Remake, if I recall.

Nice. Looking forward to seeing From's PS4 exclusives then.

 

[JobenNC]

Any chance they have anything ready to show by PSVR launch?

 

[Mr. Pointy]

It's probably King's Field.

 

[120v]

i wonder if their development for PSVR precludes anything coming to rift/vive. i have a feeling their next sony exclusive is PSVR focused

I don't see why'd throw the elipses on there if whatever this is isn't coming to something else. Maybe they'll do PS4K/XB1.2 versions, but From doesn't strike me as a company that'd do that. Especially if it had an online element like the Souls games.

 

[NightShift]

Actually, now that I look at it, this means nothing. It says "2017 onwards" so there's no indication that their next game will be on all of those platforms. It has also been known for a while that FromSoft has been working on a PSVR game or at least one with support.

 

[Soriku]

Nice. Looking forward to seeing From's PS4 exclusives then.

He said "Next FS exclusive for PS4 currently in development is a Sony published first party title, like Bloodborne, and is a JRPG." Hopefully we get info on that soon.

 

[Lyonaz]

King's Field VR would do nicely.

 

[OrbitalBeard]

He said "Next FS exclusive for PS4 currently in development is a Sony published first party title, like Bloodborne, and is a JRPG." Hopefully w get info on that soon.

Bloodborne 2 or a new IP....oooooh boy, either way, I'm excited.

 

[Daredevil.shark]

Frame-pacing issues in VR...

That would be a nightmare.

Here's the comment made by the director of Dark Souls 2:

don't forget the best part of that interview:

Asked whether From Software and Namco ever considered a Wii U port, Miyazoe bluntly replies: “No.” When asked why, he explodes with laughter. “
