Fumito Ueda, the director of Team ICO and the mastermind behind ICO and Shadow of the Colossus, has just hinted on his Twitter page that we will finally get some more details on the highly anticipated Last Guardian at the upcoming Tokyo Game Show.
Up until now the details available for this PS3 exclusive have been thin. We know the game centres around the friendship between a giant bird called Trico and a young boy. But other than this, and what has been extracted from a few teaser trailers, there have so far been very few concrete facts. Judging by the team’s last two games though it seems likely that this outing will again contain a rich open world with the now familiar, but still completely unique, sense of style and solitude. The player will control the boy, while caring for and working with the bird, in order to solve puzzles and advance through the story.
Both the previous games were very well received by the gaming press and there was disappointment when no extra details were given at this years E3. So, when the Tokyo Game Show arrives on September 16th the game will likely get a lot of attention. We will let you know as soon as we have more information.
