PlayStation Studios welcome Studio Haven
On the official website, Twitter account and other media, there was information about the cooperation between Sony Entertainment and the young gaming studio Haven. The latter is notable for being founded by former Assassin's Creed series producer Jade Raymond. Haven employs over 100 people and their collaboration with PlayStation Lead Engineer Mark Cerny could bring a new dimension to the gaming industry.
Haven is currently working on a AAA game that hasn't been announced yet, but development is well under way. It will be a new franchise that will be distributed primarily for the Sony PlayStation 5 consoles. It will also visit the PC, however, given the specifics of the marketing of the Japanese tech giant, the release on computers may be delayed for some time.
Sony employs several game studios: Santa Monica Studio, Sucker Punch Productions, SIE San Diego Studio, Naughty Dogs, Insomniac Games, Guerilla Games, SIE Bend Studio, SIE Japan Studio (Team Asobi), and Polyphony Digital.
- Santa Monica Studio is known for its work on the reboot of God of War and the ongoing development of its sequel, God of War Ragnarok.
- Sucker Punch gave gamers such titles as Infamous 1, 2, Second Son, Ghost of Tsushima and Sly Cooper.
- SIE San Diego Studios produces sports simulations and their main hit, which is more popular with Western audiences, is MLB The Show, a baseball simulation.
- Without Naughty Dog, we would never have seen the adventures of the red fox in the Crash Bandicoot series, we would not have seen Nathan Drake in the Uncharted series, and we would have received one of the best action-adventure games with elements of survival, horror and stealth, The Last of Us.
- Insomniac Games gave a lot of old-school gamers a boost with Spyro, and the latest Ratchet & Clank showed just how important GPU bandwidth can be. The best Spider-Man games are also made by Insomniac Games.
- From under the pen of Guerrilla Games came Horizon Zero Dawn, and Killzone, a specific product for fans of shooters on consoles.
- SIE Bend Studio has become a hit with old gamers thanks to the hit '90s stealth action game Siphon Filter. In 2019 they released Days Gone and so far their return to the PC gaming scene has been limited to one title.
- SIE Japan Studio is known for creating Gravity Rush, Bloodborne, Demon's Souls, and the Astro Bot Playroom, which became the gateway to the world of PlayStation 5 controller haptics. The studio teamed up with Team Asobi in 2021.
- Polyphony Digital are the creators of the Gran Turismo car simulator series, which caused a stir among racing fans and other gamers who wanted to try on the role of pilots of the coolest cars.
Now, all of the above-mentioned Sony Entertainment game studios have been joined by the staff of Haven, who, with the support of Sony, will undoubtedly be able to create an excellent AAA-class game.
