14 DAY TRIAL // Fumito Ueda, the developer of The Last Guardian, says that the game is heavily influenced by mechanics already seen in Ico and Shadow of the Colossus because his team wants to introduce as much emotion as possible into the experience.
He is quoted by Edge as saying that, “we started production of The Last Guardian to make use of the mechanics we had created so far. To create a system that lets you hold hands or grab onto a gigantic creature and move around, we had to fuse technology, mechanics, and design in the closest harmony possible.”
The Last Guardian has been in development for a long time and publisher Sony is avoiding offering any clear information on the status of the project.
Recently, the company has confirmed that it is not thinking of canceling the title, but it has not explained whether it is still linked to the PS3 or it will be re-created to use the new features of the PlayStation 4.
