PixelJunk Shooter 2 is a follow up to the highly successful PlayStation Network title from Q-Games, PixelJunk Shooter. As one of 2011′s most anticipated PSN games, we’ve caught up with Q-Games founder, Dylan Cuthbert, to talk about the game and what else Q-Games may have in store for PS3 owners.
Throughout the history of video games, there have been titles that permanently shifted the industry. These games are generally not hard to spot, as their influence quickly earned them a place in our pop culture. Tetris, Super Mario 64, Halo, The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, or The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, each of these games caused massive shifts in their respective genres and gaming as a whole. But for each of these, there are also games whose influence, though significant, is largely forgotten.
From GI.biz: "Towards the tail end of 2021, Q-Games accomplished something very rare in this industry: it had reclaimed its intellectual property, specifically for PS4 exclusive The Tomorrow Children.
In the announcement tweet, the Japan-based company described it as "a historical move by Sony Interactive Entertainment" and it's hard to argue with that. The game was originally published as a second-party title, funded by PlayStation, and it's typical for the platform holder to retain the IP rights in such a partnership."
Developer Q-Games has announced PixelJunk Eden 2 for Switch. It will launch via the Nintendo eShop in Q2 2020 as a timed exclusive and support English, Spanish, Italian, German, French, Brazilian Portuguese, Russian, Chinese (Simplified and Traditional), Japanese, and Korean language options.
Dang! I loved the first, and it's interesting to see them leave the PS behind (at launch anyways) for Nintendo.
Shame they took out remote play
No remote play means no purchase from me.
He played that interview pretty close to the chest... but hey! Free goodie for me, and more games on the way after that? Cooooooool.
Ya not a lot revealed, but enough to keep me wanting more.
SO excited for this game. Especially after the first one. Hooray for customer loyalty!
