Ted Price added that he had spent a lot of time shaping history and thinking about the management that the series could take in the future. “Personally, I love this franchise”he said. “I was lucky to be creative director on the first two resistance games. And I will remember many moments, good and bad, in terms of development, which have all taught us a lot about how we can raise ourselves in fairly difficult situations. »»
The first resistance was released in 2006 while the last episode, Resistance 3, appeared in 2011. We do not know when Ted Price pitché pitching this idea of relating the franchise, but we know on the other hand that Sony Interactive Entertainment In order to bring back old franchises, left behind.
