Nobody else mentioned it so I'm doing it: WipeOut.

 

[reksveks]

That Supermassive game that's getting a remake

 

[harry mason 1989]

Pepsi man remake

 

[SeraphJan]

"Extremely"

Most franchise does not fit this word

 

[crazepharmacist]

It's either Resistance or Socom. Sony has said they want to focus more on multiplayer games for the Ps5 generation so it's 100% a multiplayer franchise

 

[Zeroing]

Guy has it wrong, it's actually 3. trust me, my uncle works at Sony.

 

[Little Chicken]

Probably Uncharted? Uncharted 4 was almost 6 years ago...

 

[captainraincoat]

Probably Uncharted? Uncharted 4 was almost 6 years ago...

Resurrecting a series which you have had 2 remasters in the last couple of years ….that's stretching it even for sony

My guess is twisted metal…..and it will most likely be some sort of gaas model

 

[NotMyProblemAnymoreCunt]

Hope it's Legend of Dragoon

 

[Star-Lord]

The order

One game does not count as a franchise.

My money is on a Syphon Filter remake/reboot.

 

[Heisenberg007]

That Supermassive game that's getting a remake

That doesn't qualify as an "extremely popular franchise".

If true, it'll be more in line with SOCOM, Jak & Daxter, Sly Cooper, InFamous, etc.

 

[GoldenEye Samurai]

I've always wanted Syphon Filter to make a comeback, but I'd honestly prefer it if it was Metal Gear Solid. I love me some SNAKE!!!…

 

[Airbus Jr]

One game does not count as a franchise.

Either way im happy with any of those

 

[arvfab]

Would be happy if it's one out of:

Ape Escape
Infamous
Resistance
Motorstorm
The Getaway
Syphon Filter
Jak & Daxter

 

[Spaceman292]

Uncharted 5 starring Cassie.

And also she goes to a haunted middle american town covered in fog and fights monsters with shapes on their heads

 

[Zeroing]

My bet would be a franchise who once was very associated with PlayStation then gone multiple platform then got unused and now it's becoming exclusive.

 

[MilkyJoe]

Parappa the Rapper

 

[The_Mike]

Hopping on this wonderful PS1 reboot chain.

Well its a third person shooter so it's probably true.

Game was fun for its time though. Loved the taser. A shame people didn't turn to charcoal if you hold the taser in for minutes lol (yeah I tried)

 

[Brofist]

New Twisted Metal with 100 vehicle maps fully destructible environments.

 

[mortal]

What can be considered "extremely popular"?
The only IPs that come to mind are either Resistance or Twisted Metal, and to a lesser extent, Socom.

 

[Ozriel]

Either one of these

The order
Resistance
Legend of dragoon
Silent Hill
MGS

Only MGS here can be called popular. And the last entry sold 5 million units.

Not a single one of those games qualify as 'extremely popular'.

Whatever game it is good news for gamers man

The more the merier

Welll that's why I ask the question.
I don't believe this is about 3rd party IPs like MGS, but Sony owned IPs.

Twisted Metal hasn't received a new entry in nearly a decade, despite that people still bring it up in conversation.
Now its getting a show adaptation. So maybe a new entry to coincide with the show. The closest I can think of.

 

[anthony2690]

Ape escape please!

Spoiler

it will probably be something I don't care for like Hurdy Gurdy

 

[The Pleasure]

I gotta believe

Damn, arcsys animating sony games now?

 

[RoadHazard]

Uncharted. ND can't have been working only on TLOU multiplayer all this time, and they have at least two teams.

It's not SOCOM lol.

 

[captainraincoat]

Uncharted. ND can't have been working only on TLOU multiplayer all this time, and they have at least two teams.

It's not SOCOM lol.

One has been doing the factions and the other is rumoured to be doing the lou1 remake…both are probably linked

 

[RoadHazard]

If that's true, what a ridiculous waste of time. Make new games!

 

[Shmunter]

Bungie never sold Halo to MS, just leased the license it till 2022

Halo 7 PS5 exclusive

 

[Alter_Fridge]

Is the announcement coming in Q4 or the actual game?

Super ambiguous tweet is super ambiguous

 

[mortal]

Uncharted. ND can't have been working only on TLOU multiplayer all this time, and they have at least two teams.

It's not SOCOM lol.

but the Uncharted franchise hasn't gone anywhere long enough to even make a return. The Legacy of Thieves Collection was released a little over a month ago for PS5 & PC.

 

[bad guy]

Gran Turismo

 

[GymWolf]

I would kill a mofo for a remake.

But i think they are talking about this other gem

 

[Kupfer]

Didn't Guerilla Games hire some time ago for a multiplayer game?
Killzone maybe?

 

[Nocturno999]

'Extremely' sounds God tier like Metal Gear.

 

[Whitecrow]

Super Snowboard seXiness please Sony

 

[Lone Wolf]

 

[Kupfer]

Was Resistance actually "extremely popular"? Somehow I and all my friends missed it back then and it never got much attention for my feeling.

 

[Ovek]

 

[Badlucktroll]

Its fuckin Kojima's game

 

[Psychostar]

This game is actually one of the most important and sentimental titles to me. I learned how to read playing this game, out of a desire to play it as a child as I liked the aesthetic so much. The sequel also rocked my socks.

It inspired me to get a Playstation membership card when that was a thing and ultimately ended up being the first game I printed an official guide for, as I had tried to fully complete the game around 4 times and never managed to collect all quests in the questlog. I remember printing a 100 page guide on this hahaha.

I wish the company was still together and that a new installment could be a thing.

Good times! Thanks for posting.

 

[Hawking Radiation]

My sources at Sony Worldwide Studios has indeed confirmed to me personally that Sony is working on a as yet unannounced game. They will be announcing it sometime this year. Bookmark this and confirm my insider cred thanks Mods.

 

[ksdixon]

TLOU (TLOU1 Remake, TLOU2 PS5 Director's Cut, or TLOU Factions game).

Q4 2022? Just ramping-up marketing lead-in for TV show, I reckon.

 

[Badlucktroll]

I hope its a Konami IP, and it's announced alongside an acquisition, or Sony just getting the rights to the IPs.

 

[zaanan]

franchises with at least two games that sold over a million but have not received a new release in a generation
*snip*
PS3 era
Motorstorm

name a single multi million seller outside of Jak that would actually be viable in today's landscape? I can't name a single game

Resistance motherfuckers!

 

[01011001]

Resistance motherfuckers!

as much as I am a fan of the first Resistance, that series is in no way "extremely popular" let's be real

 

[zaanan]

Was Resistance actually "extremely popular"?

In light of Sony's recent statements that Returnal is a "mega-hit" and the Uncharted movie is a "hit movie franchise," Yes.

To those who may not know:
Fall Of Man sold > 4m
R2 > 2m (I blame Insomniac copying COD)
R3 > 1m (I blame R2)

 

[ButchCat]

 

[Castef]

I'd go with Metal Gear.

 

[Badlucktroll]

I'd go with Metal Gear.

If Sony got the rights somehow to the Konami IPs, and announced a remake/reimagining of Metal Gear 1 And Metal Gear 2 Solid Snake (Reboot series with young Solid Snake) and a Silent Hill reboot, my neighbors would hear me screaming!
