Paris Games Week
The Eiffel Tower, The Arc d'Triomphe and The Louvre are just some of the things Paris is known for, but it is also the home of the premier video games fair, which is hosted at the Porte de Versailles. Now Sony announced the other day that they will be taking the stage at 5pm, so what can we expect to see for their PlayStation 4 console?
Quantified?
It's no secret that 'Quantic Studios' are based in Paris, and it's also no secret that they have been working on something since 'Beyond: Two Souls', however we really have no idea what it is, all we do know is that all signs hint at something to do with artificial intelligence. Needless to say expect to see more about their mysterious project on the 27th October.
Let's go WiLD
Funnily enough there is another developer based in France who are currently working on an exclusive PS4 title and that is 'Wild Sheep Studio'. Now we haven't heard a thing about their new title WiLD, the game where you get to control various animals since Gamescom in 2014, so I would expect some announcements regarding this title at Paris, especially with the developer based in France.
SKY's the limit!
There are currently a plethora of rumours swirling about the cyberverse regarding 'Hello Games' No Man's Sky, and I for one would expect to see some sort of major announcement regarding it's release date. Or even as rumour is suggesting, the announcement of it's actual release on the 27th of October!
The title, which let's you create games and/or compose soundtracks, based entirely on your or someone else's dreams and seems to veer towards collaboration, is currently in development by the Guildford based company who have confirmed that they are working on the beta for Dreams, so expect to hear more on that at Paris.
The Usual Suspects a.k.a Stating the obvious
I would also expect to see a new trailer for Uncharted 4: A Thief's End coming hot on the heels of the release of The Uncharted Collection for the PS4. After it's impressive showing at EGX I would also expect to see more, much more of The Last Guardian, including a confirmed release date and details of the beta as well as a new trailer telling a bit of the story. Expect to see some gameplay of Horizon: Zero Dawn explaining the exploration and role-playing aspects of the PS4 exclusive from 'Guerilla Games'. Now hold your breath because I think that we may see something about Gran Turismo 7, mainly due to Sony stating that the biggest market for their driving sim is Europe, but with that being said I wouldn't expect it to be released until next year........if we do see it that is.
