I was not dead, he was out partying. The Last Guardian exists, its development continues its course and Sony showed us a playable demo for the conference E3 2015 . With this anticipated return Japanese company began the event, causing brutal impact from the first moment. For those who have kept faith all this time.
We all know the story behind the title. Its development began in 2007. It was about Project Trico , the new draft makers majestic works like ICO or Shadow of the Colossus . Shown to the public for the first time at E3 2009, its publication was scheduled for sometime in 2011 exclusively for PlayStation 3.
But somewhere along the way, The Last Guardian disappeared from Map . Their absences in any event Sony were increasingly worrying, and the shadow of an ever-lengthening possible cancellation. Made worse by the departure of Fumito Ueda , head of the study, by disagreements with Sony. A few months ago there was talk that the Japanese study had forgotten to renew the brand.
And after several years with absolutely show no material of the game with a tremendously negative current, Sony gives us the joy of year with evidence that the development of The Last Guardian continues on . A gameplay video with just a few minutes, has made us forget a stroke all these years of unrest.
The first thing out is the visuals, which still appears as absolutely precious as we remembered, in line with the other titles in the factory of the Team ICO . Stony scenarios with light tones of clarity seasoned artistically masterful title.
Of course, the foci of the presentation focused on the interaction with the animal that accompanies protagonist at all times. Collaborating with him will be extremely vital to solve the challenges facing us in the way.
Were not disclosed for now, details about the relationship between the two characters. During the early stages, we will control the boy searches for his faithful companion, who burst onto the scene abruptly . This is logical because of its size, moreover. We were surprised at the aggressiveness of the animal, but still the same adorable look as always, on several occasions he is heard roar. Although we do not know if they have grounds for the context.
The Last Guardian inevitably reminds ICO , but the reverse. In this title we were the stronger should be to protect the princess Yorda. Now it’s the opposite. We are a mere teenager in need of animal protection . A good example we have in the time when a jump from a great distance and our ally furry saves us from falling thanks to its tail is made. This scene, by the way, is not a cinematic scene. You may rush to empty and die if we do not properly.
Not yet spoken anything about the plot . We do not know the background that led to the characters there. Even the name of the protagonist, although the animal, that just as planned Trico be called, as planned in an original way.
The mechanics of the game also remind us of the aforementioned ICO with the loneliness it transmits. In the demo we have not seen any enemy. Simply jumps between different platforms and puzzle solving moving various objects on the Stage . We’ll see how this develops.
The video concludes with another subtle reference to Shadow of the Colossus , with the protagonist climbing up the animal’s coat up to her shoulders.
The Last Guardian is back in style. 2016 is the date that appears next to the logo of the game, what makes us think that his arrival is more than next. It is a reality. We will see if it is lived up to the expectations generated by its tortuous development. So far it seems that it will.
And do not miss …
