Utviklerne i Ninja Theory har tidligere stått bak spill som DMC Devil May Cry, og på fjorårets Gamescom ble deres neste utgivelse presentert. Dette var actionspillet Hellblade, og på spillmessen fikk vi inntrykk av at det skulle bli Playstation 4-eksklusivt.
Nå skriver imidlertid VG247 at spillet også skal slippes til PC, og da med mulighet for mod-støtte. Ninja Theory-sjefen Temeem Antoniades deler her sine tanker om PC som plattform:
"I think PC offers us a level of freedom that we haven't had before. We're looking at everything we do on this project and figuring out better ways of doing things compared to how the traditional AAA console model works. And consoles are following suit with PC, but I think they're years behind what things like Steam are doing. If we want to do an open beta right now, it's a little bit trickier to do that than on PC. Playtesting is a huge thing for us. Usability testing, getting people hands-on to try things out, get feedback, then roll that back in and improve the game... it's always been essential for us to do that. Not every publisher has let us, because of the secrecy that goes into consoles and publisher-based businesses. As an independent we have the freedom to do that."
Vi synes Hellblade ser ut som en slags åndelig oppfølger til studioets første Playstation 3-spill, Heavenly Sword, og det virker lovende. Hva synes du?
