Mistwalker hasn’t really done too much of note since the rather brilliantLost Odysseywas released last year. In fact, we haven’t heard from them since March, when somemysterious artworkwas released. Fortunately, the studio has come out of its shell recently to confirm that it’s wrapping up a new project, having been “rushed” into the final stages.
“I am working hard on a new project,”blogsMistwalker head Hironobu Sakaguchi. “Now we are being rushed into the ‘finishing’ stage. No matter what, I will make it really good….”
Given the quality ofLost Odyssey, I have little doubt that Sakaguchi will indeed make the next game “really good.” Whether it be a sequel to last year’s game, or a new concept entirely, I can’t wait to see what Mistwalker comes up with. Having heard thatprevious Mistwalker projects were canceled, I was quite worried about the company’s future, so I’m very glad to hear that things are still happening.
We’ll keep an ear to the ground and let you know as soon as we hear more.
