Resi creator starts work on new project News

PC Xbox 360 PlayStation 3
News by Robert Purchese

30 January, 2008

Platinum Games, the studio established by former Clover Studio staff, has revealed it is hard at work on a new project.

Resident Evil creator Shinji Mikami aired the news on his blog (translated by IGN), announcing he will head up the team.

Little else is known about the game, other than Capcom will be making it.

Mikami's last project was God Hand on PS2, which arrived over one and a half years ago in Japan.

For now, his search for more staff to fill his team out with continues.

Clover Studios counts God Hand, Okami and Viewtiful Joe among its past catalogue. The team was dissolved in March 2007 before reforming as Seeds and later merging with ODD Incorporated to become Platinum Games.

Hurrah. Okami was such a good game. I hope they come up with yet more original stuff.

\o/ My second favourite team!

If they're working with Capcom, couldn't we get a sequel to Okami?

This does sound like god news. Loved everything Clover put out, and God Hand was a surprisingly solid farewell game. Here's hoping they keep the spirit.

If they're working for Capcom again then why was Clover disbanned in the first place??

Capcom are making it...?

The whole inter-studio collaboration thing in the Japanese videogame industry really confuses me. But in a good way.

Something original would be great, but a next-gen God Hand sequel would be fantastic.
