  • Sony Acquires Infamous Developers

    The console giant has secured a number of power houses under its wing, to make quality exclusives for cut-throat market competition. Following the tradition, Sony Computer Entertainment Worldwide Studios (SCE WWS) have announced the acquisition of Sucker Punch, the developers behind the critically acclaimed Infamous games.

    SCE WWS head Shuhei Yoshida commented, “Sucker Punch Productions is one of the most highly acclaimed development studios in the industry and we have enjoyed a wonderful relationship with the company for over 12 years. We are delighted to officially welcome them to the SCE family.”

    “The addition of Sucker Punch to SCE WWS reiterates our dedication to developing world class gaming experiences that can only be found on the PlayStation platform. With one of the strongest exclusive software lineups in the PS3′s history, combined with the diverse, innovate content in the works for PlayStation Vita, consumers have a lot to be excited about this year.”

    “It’s just been such a productive and enjoyable relationship for us that I think that in all of our discussions the only group we really seriously entertained doing this kind of a transaction with was Sony,” Sucker Punch’s Brian Fleming said, during an interview with CNBC.

    “I’d be lying if I said other groups weren’t interested in a group like Sucker Punch,” SCE WWS U.S. boss, Scott Rohde said.

    “The bottom line is, when you’ve got a group that’s been as successful as Sucker Punch, we want to ensure that we keep them in the fold. It’s that simple. It’s hard to find high quality developers like these guys.”

    Rumour has it that sucker punch has been secretly working on a new IP for PlayStation 3. Stay tuned for more.
