Resistance 4, which Insomniac Games wanted to develop, was not approved by PlayStation. Fans are still hopeful for the continuation of the series.
Insomniac Games, which received great acclaim in PlayStation 3 Resistance He presented a project for the fourth game of his series. However, the company’s CEO Ted Price said in a statement that the idea of Resistance 4 was rejected by PlayStation. The justification was shown as “timing and market opportunities not appropriate”.
Did hopes exhausted for Resistance 4?
Resistance was one of the most popular series of PlayStation 3. FIRST GAME Resistance: Fall of Man, the following Resistance 2 and the Resistance 3, who completed the series, has led players to fight against the alternative Chimera threat in an alternative historical fiction. According to Ted Price, the Resistance 4 would be presented with a concept that would carry the series even further, and this idea had created great excitement in the Insomniac team.
Price said that elements such as the series of alternative history theme and the origins of Chimera offer many opportunities to expand the story. However, PlayStation did not give a green light to this project at that time. Nevertheless, Price said that they noticed the intense interest from the fans and that this universe has a potential to reuse one day.
Playstation’s rejection of the project due to timing and market conditions may be linked to the company’s strategic priorities at that time. The fact that Insomniac later turned to projects such as Marvel’s Spider-Man and Wolverine, led to the evolving of the studio in a different direction. Price said that the experiences of the Resistance series have a major role in the success of these projects.
Although Ted Price will leave her post in Insomniac, one day it is hopeful that the Resistance series can return. For now, PlayStation’s plan to revive this iconic series does not appear. However, the love and demands of the fans keep the possibility of being reborn in the future in the future. Perhaps one day, we have the chance to return to this epic struggle against the Chimera threat.
