PlatinumGames has some big plans for this year, previously announcing that Chinese company Tencent would be assisting in funding the company, so they could release self-published games, and revealing the "Platinum 4" website, which teased multiple projects, including a Kickstarter for porting The Wonderful 101 to new platforms. Now, Platinum has gone back to teasing their plans, by stating that they have a "major announcement" scheduled for the next issue of Japan's Weekly Famitsu magazine. Whatever the reveal may be, we'll know what Platinum has up their sleeves on February 27th.

Well, this is going to be really awesome or totally ass, not a lot of options in between.

"We're self-publishing from now on and bringing all our games to PC, including Bayonetta 2 and 3."

vs.

"Tencent bought us out, all our games will be full of microtransactions and EGS exclusive from now on."

Okami II (please god) or the Tencent money was used to kill the exclusivity deal with Nintendo and Bayonetta so It'll be multiplatform again

 

[Sonic Angel Knight]

Anything but a mobile game.

They're going to kowtow to Winnie the Pooh. Just watch!

Everyone just loves The Wonderful 101 . I thought it was pretty weak ... Bayonetta 3 maybe I still have 1 & 2 on WIIU but never really got into them much

 

[AlanJohn]

Metal Gear Rising 2 please

 

[JuanMena]

I imagine it like this:

There's okamiden on the DS and I would consider that a second Okami, but a hd remake of that ds game would be good or a sequel to Okamiden

Speaking about mobile games, Bayonetta event returns to Shin Megami Tensei Dx2 today... Maybe Devil May Cry event returns next :-)

 

[gameboy]

I love PlatinumGames, I hope see more ports on ps4/switch.
And more new games.

This one is extremely unlikely unless Nintendo wants to do exactly that.

Nier Automata on switch please

 

[2DSGamerdude]

I wonder if this means they're might be making a astral chain 2 for switch? since the first one was a bomb?
I've not played the 1st one, but it looks rather nice. it kinda has some final fantasy elements to it?
