Sony only WISHES it had these guys and Retro Studios!! Also, with Platinum Games fully behind the wii u, the future looks amazing software wise.

I hope it's true that these guys'll be at TGS with their new game. Can't wait to see what they are brewing.

Makes sense. It's been nearly 3 years since the DLC for 3 came out. The next Xenoblade or whatever they end up calling it will probably come out next year.

They had a central role in developing Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom.

I guess this means the next Zelda game will remain in the open world formula then?

Zeldafan64108d ago

Probably. After how well those 2 games sold I doubt they'll ever go back to the more traditional style games. Doesn't matter to me which one they make.

S2Killinit107d ago

Wasn’t it always? Ocarina of time was also open world no? Was there any zelda game that was linear?

Nebaku107d ago

They didn't. Literally read the article, or anything about the interview posted in the past couple days.

Mono had minimal involvement in Skyward Sword, joined into BOTW halfway during production, and only TOTK is where they were actually there from the start.

Vithar108d ago

I'd rather them working on the next Xenoblade

ZeekQuattro107d ago

They proved they can do both. The made two new Xenoblades on the Switch and ported over two older entries. While helping with two Zelda games. Which will never not be insane to me.

Vithar107d ago

for sure :) I want them to announce their new RPG for SW2! Xenoblade is one of my favorite series of all time

TheColbertinator107d ago (Edited 107d ago )

Maybe I will enjoy Zelda games once more if they take over and remake the series into an RPG

Zeldafan64107d ago

The odds of that happening are basically 0.

Love their games. I wish they had more power to work with as they create awesome worlds but are limited by handheld specs. Hopefully Switch 2 upscaling can work some miracles with the lower end specs and gives the immersion that this world should have.

Asterphoenix370d ago

I'm looking forward to seeing more on what they'll do for Switch 2. Longs they maintain their standard and they have done it for
years.

Hope for Xenosaga 1-3 remaster one day whether they do it or not. They did it with Baiten Kaios.

jjb1981370d ago

That would be awesome. That is such an amazing series.

gold_drake370d ago

i would love to play the xenoblade games, as im a big fan of the xeno series in general, but damn.
the anime style character looks and the mmo approach/inspiration the combat is not my cup of tea at all.
