Infamous: Second Son Is A PS4 Launch Title, Says Sucker Punch Dev

inFamous: Second Son is a PlayStation 4 launch title. The game will ship in Q4 2013 according to this resume from Sucker Punch’s rendering programmer. Another Sucker Punch developer notes the 2013 timeline for the game too.

inFamous: Second Sun uses high dynamic range (HDR) imaging for lightning and other graphical effects. The game has a real-time "wetness" and puddle system plus high quality sky and atmosphere effects.

Motion capture work for facial animations is being done at Digital Domain, a company that made in-game cinematics and teaser trailers for The Darkness II and Gears of War.

good thing is that since the game's an open-world is gonna benefit greatly from the increased amount of ram and easier architecture. Can't wait!

Ezz20134802d ago (Edited 4802d ago )

Killzone+infamous ps4 launch titles ?!
awesome
as always
ps4 is a day 1 for me

gta28004802d ago

I guess Sony was serious when they said they would have the biggest launch lineup ever. So juiced!

HammadTheBeast4802d ago

I know this hasn't really been talked about, but I'm hoping for multi player. Some DCUO type multi player with powers would be beast.

badz1494802d ago

but if we have KZSF, Infamous SS and then KNack on day 1...and all those 3rd party games like Watchdog...all I can say is OMG!

nveenio4802d ago

Sucker Punch already builds great open world games. I can't wait to see what they can do with the PS4.

Was getting the ps4 day one already but this just makes it a set on stone type of thing. Can't wait for more announcements.

SOD_Delta4802d ago

Indeed. Second Son will be my first PS4 game.

shutUpAndTakeMyMoney4802d ago (Edited 4802d ago )

Next Gen Open world game day 1?? Yeah!!!!

smashcrashbash4802d ago (Edited 4802d ago )

Awesome.Infamous right off the bat.Perfectly good incentive to buy the PS4.But what do they need lightning effects for? Will Cole come back? Will he be the enemy? Will the new guy get electric powers too somehow? Will he get them from dead Cole or alive Cole or just absorb them like Cole did? Maybe Cole will appear to help the new guy or it could just be for storms or visual effects.Can't wait to find out.

KewDeGra4802d ago

talk about spoiler ...... some people still haven't known the fate of the good/bad for infamous 2 ...

smashcrashbash4802d ago

I didn't reveal anything major.No one knows how he dies or what were the circumstances under which it happened or which ending involved his death or what lead to to his eventual death.The only thing I revealed is that he dies somehow at sometime with no specifics.

theWB274802d ago

There comes a time when spoilers don't apply..going on 2 years after a game has released is one of them. Seriously.

PSVita4801d ago

Played both games but still ***spoilers*** is always respectable.

a_bro4802d ago

so wait. this game and killzone shadow fall, PS4 launch titles? well s**t....

Conzul4802d ago

What..............did you expect? :/

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.

Profchaos212d ago

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

Cacabunga212d ago (Edited 212d ago )

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

andy85212d ago

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

chrisx212d 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

Elda212d ago

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

Redemption-64212d ago

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

Some studios function better that way.

northpaws212d ago

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

S2Killinit212d ago

Whatever they are doing, keep doing it.

Agent75212d 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.
