inFAMOUS: Second Son Announced for PlayStation 4

So what’s new? I mean, what have you been up to? Cool. Us? Not much. Just a new character, new city, new powers, and all designed especially for the new PlayStation 4. I hope you’re excited – because we really are! Actually, for us it’s probably one part excitement and one part pure terror, but that’s just the way of things I guess… But here we are at last to break the months of silence: All of us at Sucker Punch are very pleased to introduce you to Delsin Rowe, and our new title Second Son! Let’s cut to the chase!

I bet Cole will be in this somehow, but Im very excited to play as Delsin with new powers and explore the new city

--Onilink--4839d ago

not to spoil anything... but if you played Infamous 2 you would see its very very unlikely Cole would be involved in this game

infamousinfolite4839d ago

Yeah this is based off the good ending of IF2, I believe.

Conzul4839d ago

I'd say there's a 75% chance that Cole survived. In one ending (evil ending) he survived, and in the other (good ending) there's a 50/50 chance that the lightning rejuvenated him or something like that.

Something tells me we haven't seen the last of McGrath.

OT: I wonder if the DUP chick is Moya? That would kick ass. Can't wait for this spinoff!

infamousinfolite4839d ago

@Conzul
Or... he may just not come back.

princejb1344838d ago

I buying ps4 just for this game
Enjoyed the first and second to the fullest

nrvalleytime4839d ago

"It’s been seven years since the Cole McGrath episodes and the world has clearly changed."

I did not expect this, but I'm really liking where the new direction of the series is going. Potential sequels and new characters all with different abilities? Sounds awesome.

Root4839d ago (Edited 4839d ago )

I like it and I'm excited but I don't...if you get what I mean

I just think it would of been nice to finish Coles story in a full trilogy then explore other characters in the universe and the fact they didn't name this inFAMOUS 3 proves that they are saving that for Coles return.

So it's following the good ending....but I thought they said that the ray sphere would kill all conduits off.

I would understand this game if it was like Killzone 4: Shadow Fall where it's a new trilogy and they are calling it something different to show that the series is moving forward into a new story arc but I really don't see why they would waste time making a new inFAMOUS game without Cole I mean if Sucker Punch are going to do another inFAMOUS before moving onto a new IP why not just do inFAMOUS 3 with Cole and then move onto a new trilogy with a new characters in the far future. He's a well liked character look at the backlash after his design changed.

Speaking of design I'm not liking the look of the new character, looks like new Dante with a beanie.

I'm excited for this but I hope they will reserve inFAMOUS 3 for Cole in the future

He will come back, if they are going with the good ending then there's the lightning bolt in the form of a question mark.

--Onilink--4839d ago (Edited 4839d ago )

have you finished infamous 2? because im guessing where the disagrees are coming from.. Cole is not coming back

Root4839d ago

Are you serious

REALLY

I should be asking you if you've played it

Good ending - Lightning bolt in the shape of a question mark...why would they put that there if they had actually killed him off.

infamousinfolite4839d ago (Edited 4839d ago )

@Root
Let's do this. That question mark at the end of the good ending for Infamous 2 basically was Sucker Punch's way of saying is this the end of the series of Infamous or will there be something new on the horizon not about Cole. Besides the ending of either or would have been too hard to create a sequel for.

TotalHitman4839d ago

Have you finished Killzone 3? SPOILER ALERT! Stahl survives the nuke at the end. He'll be back in some shape or form.

Root4839d ago (Edited 4839d ago )

Wow disagrees for nothing

Its caled criticism guys come on, you don't build up a character then discard him after two games

If the games non cannon or a side game/spin off then fair enough

pr0t0typeknuckles4839d ago (Edited 4839d ago )

im gonna miss cole and im gonna miss electric powers but, damn delsin rowe doesnt look half bad nor do hisnew powers if i do say so myself, is anyone getting a x-men turned into a videogame vibe here because i am.

and when i read that this guy can trasnform and manipulate smoke i just died, 1-thats not a common power you see everyday,2-all i pictured was smoke from MK9 and ieasily see the possibilities for a kickass character.

Root4839d ago (Edited 4839d ago )

"thats not a common power you see everyday"

The Man in Black (Lost)
Captain Pollution (Captain Planet and the Planeteers)
William Dunbar(Code Lyoko) under the control of XANA
Smoker (One Piece)
Smoke (Mortal Kombat)

I could go on :)

RememberThe3574839d ago

It's still not as common as "super strength" or any of that other cliche stuff. I'll take it. This, Destiny, and Killzone were the highlights of the show for me.

pr0t0typeknuckles4839d ago

its not as common as super strength, speed, electricity, and fire, besides how many video game characters besides smoke from MK(as i mentioned already) can you control that has the ability to control smoke and vapor.

Y_51504839d ago

I need to see more. I was wanting to see Cole again.

infamousinfolite4839d ago

Perhaps they'll have a memorabilia of him somewhere showing how he saved millions of people from the plague.

ziggurcat4839d ago (Edited 4839d ago )

i think the blog site is broken due to the amount of traffic they're receiving right now...

i seriously can't access the PS blog site right now :(

That's more than fine. If you keep making one amazing quality game after another, with the low budget you've been utilising for games, then you'll continue to be extremly successful going forward. Don't take on a bigger load than you can handle comfortably.

Also, maybe it's time for a Sly Cooper game. No to Infamous, we've already got superhero games coming form Insomniac. Sorry Infamous fans but I want an open world Sly Cooper game.

Profchaos219d ago

Yotei is pretty incredible but I'd definitely love infamous to return to

Cacabunga219d ago (Edited 219d ago )

Wise decision by a very stupid PlayStation management this gen.
Now let Bend go 1st party too and explore some more Oregon

andy85219d ago

Im baffled how theyve made a game of this quality on this budget when worse games spend 5x that

chrisx219d ago

You're very right. Take a look at assassins creed shadows...GOY blows that game in every single department. The facial animations are leagues above shadows and also the combat and general mechanics. While on a smaller budget

Elda219d ago

I'd rather have a new Infamous game than a Sly Cooper game.

Redemption-64219d ago

Naaaaa, I like sly, but infamous is what they should do if they want to go back

Some studios function better that way.

northpaws219d ago

That's fine, will keep playing Legend 2 until their next game. Can't wait.

S2Killinit218d ago

Whatever they are doing, keep doing it.

Agent75218d ago

Have been watching vids of the game and my wife who doesn't play games, asked me why the baddies as she called them, don't seem to be fighting back much, like they're stood still. The AI is dire and this is yet another showcase game from Sony. Run about and explore with flash graphics. There's just no variety with Sony's games.
