It seems logical for PlatinumGames to court Phil Spencers after all.
Many of us think that we always need what we don’t have. Developed by PlatinumGames for the Xbox One, Scalebound began to pique the interest of console owners when Microsoft decided to turn off the money spigot and cancel the project in 2017 after long deliberation. Dragon Adventure hasn’t faded from the public’s consciousness since then, as rumors have surfaced again and again that once a lot of money is invested in it, the parties won’t let it go to waste.
Then the years passed well, and the rumors did not materialize, until the end of 2021 / beginning of 2022, something changed: PlatinumGames tried to approach Microsoft in an amazing way. First, shared responsibility They apologized Because Scalebound failed, they then indicated that they were happy They will start working together againand in the end they actually expressed it He wouldn’t be against them at all If they can join Xbox Game Studios.
This flirtation could certainly have something to do with the uncertain financial situation of two companies that own studios, which only added to that. Fall of Babylon. In Hungary, the capital of the people of Redmond will be a huge relief for PlatinumGames, whether it is a joint venture or acquisition.
It’s very likely that the first plan (and possibly the other in time) will be put together, since Nick Baker, aka Spitkal Nick, is On the XboxEra podcast He stated that, as far as he is aware, Microsoft and PlatinumGames are already discussing a possible Scalebound revival, although it is in very early stages. He based his claim on two anonymous sources, and added that he was treated as a duck until the information regarding the second place was confirmed.
Would you be happy if Scalebound was given a second chance?
We still have a lot to tell you, you can find everything interesting here!
