Would rather they stayed independent or MS bought them out as it'll ensure a Kena sequel makes it to the PC. I sure as shit ain't going to piss five hundred quid away for it if Sony locks it to their console or delays a port for a couple of years.

As a PC only player who enjoyed Kena I 100% agree.Would rather they stayed independent or MS bought them out as it'll ensure a Kena sequel makes it to the PC. I sure as shit ain't going to piss five hundred quid away for it if Sony locks it to their console or delays a port for a couple of years.
Video screams 14 year old to me. Not much else to show and fit the theme.

They did exclude some of their adult content, like The Boys.Video screams 14 year old to me. Not much else to show and fit the theme.
It's kind of illegal to tease an acquisition unless the deal has already been signed, is it not? It's very hard to see if Ember Lab is a public or private company, but if they're public, and this is some way to tease an acquisition, then we'd of seen something reflected in their stock prices prior to this.
That said, I highly doubt it's a sign of any acquisition; that clip was focused on Sony as a whole and with a lot of filmic/cinematic properties. So I figure they'd want to showcase gaming exclusives that would fit the bill, and of those their best choices are Rachet, Kena and Miles Morales. Apparently Sony want to improve relations with indie devs, so if they only have enough to slot two games and Miles may've been redundant due to No Way Home, pick Kena and kill two birds with one stone.
IIRC the game is still slated to come to other platforms sometime next early next year, I would be surprised if this spot in a short advert was indicative of any purchase because that'd also likely mean Sony cutting out said other platforms for getting a game it'd otherwise receive, and that would upset a decent bit of folks considering such a pre-existing deal is honored in other instances (i.e Psychonauts 2, Deathloop etc.).
Maybe, but Sony generally don't give off the vibe they'd play that way. And that's not just in relation to Xbox; if the game was in some way planned for Switch and Sony acquired Ember Lab, they would most likely shelve that version as well.
But you all already know I'm not into this acquisition speculation stuff anyway; I just wait for an outright confirmation from the source itself if something's gone through or not, and go from there, generally positively. Tho, I will say it's funny how some people's views on acquisitions have changed since this time last year.
Why? Not make a bigger team and continue with a new IP? What's peoples' obsession with remakes?Kena is actually an incredible game, and it's being criminally slept on. I just wish it had a better story.
Sony should definitely pick these guys up and let them handle a remake of one of their mascot franchises.
They showcase their best products of 2021, including Kena Bridge of Spirits. Not even MLB or Destruction All Stars is given a spot.

There’s electronics in there also but i think there is gonna be more brand synergy from this point on.Video games, sony movies, sony tv shows and anime in one video.
Is Sony teasing the long rumored subscription service?
Sony has already been pretty aggressive with creating new IPs. Probably the most out of any other company. The 3 studios they partnered with this year (ex. Deviation Games) are all making new IPs too.
Meanwhile they own tons of different IP that haven't been touched in many long years.

You can't call it organic growth if you didn't pay for a timed exclusive or 2 firstWould rather they stayed independent or MS bought them out as it'll ensure a Kena sequel makes it to the PC.

One barely game, that seems to dissapont, but has good graphics makes a perfect fit for Sony?.I don't think this footage means anything but i wouldn't be surprised if they do aqquire them. Ember Labs fits in perfectly.

I thought you guys wanted the best of the best. This is not it.
We have seen better and worse from all studios .It's a narrative driven game, so yeah. And for their first game it's pretty good. I've seen worse from much bigger "AAA" studios.
It's a great game, more impressive since it is their first attempt. They have won awards for the game so maybe play it rather than dismiss it out of hand. Ember Labs have huge potential. If they are as bad you suggest, shouldn't you be happy Sony are wasting resources acquiring them.We have seen better and worse from all studios .
Not sure what your point is.
Other than organic growth is a "catch phrase" and you don't give a shit about the quality of a game so long as it's exclusive to your system.

Not defensive, just trying to be logicalWhy so defensive? My point is: I liked the game and i think they'd be a great fit for Sony.
And what do you mean by "You guys"? I'm not here for console warring.
Didn't they own them when they made it?Sony should acquire the guys that made the Vita.
Not defensive, just trying to be logical
Don't take offense to you guys if you aren't one of those guys.
Only those guys take offense to it, because they know they are "those guys"
Last thing I watched from them is... Them. It's a really well made series. I almost didn't watch it because I expect modern American cringe due to the topic (racism), but it was very good. Hope Sony keeps collaborating with Amazon on original series.Sony pictures television has a lot of great productions on several streaming services.

Ah, i see. Sorry. I'm still new here and i (thankfully) haven't seen "those guys" yet, lol.
Lolhave you played it?
That would be great. Where did you hear that?But i thought sony would be releasing all their 1st party games day and date by the end of next year?
Or an all-in-one console... PlayStation One?Video games, sony movies, sony tv shows and anime in one video.

Sonys studios have been actively cheering on Ember Lab since launch also. I’ve never seen them do this for other 3rd party studios, even Housemarque got less retweets from them when Returnal came out.
Dude’s a massive Playstation Hater so dont be surprised lol
