Firesprite is one of Sony’s PS Studios division’s most recent additions. We still don’t know a lot about the developer, despite the fact that it is PlayStation’s largest first-party studio in the UK, easily dwarfing Media Molecule and London Studio. This is where the brand-new video, which tries to profile the studio’s ten-year history, comes into play.

The Persistence, a rogue-like horror game, is now the team’s most well-known creation, as indicated in the video. Horizon Call of the Mountain, the PSVR2’s main title, is what it is working on right now in collaboration with Guerrilla Games. Several projects are in the works, as development manager Daniel Jones mentioned. “The stuff we have in development right now is incredible, and it really is down to the individuals working here, who are going to build these incredibly world-beating games,” said one employee.

He continues by saying that what initially drew him to Firesprite was the staff’s pedigree. When he turns around and sees people who have worked on his childhood video games, he remarks, “It still kind of blows my mind.”

Everyone can communicate and contribute, according to managing director Graeme Ankers, who also notes that the team is organized under the notion that “Every Sprite has a voice.”

It won’t provide answers to all of your pressing questions, but it’s still a nice video. I hope Sony uses similar tactics to highlight its other teams. We’re eager to play Firesprite’s first significant release, Horizon Call of the Mountain, which should look fantastic in PSVR2 due to its virtual reality experience.

Recruited Since Last Month: More Than Eight Million Helldivers 2 Players

The relentless force of Helldivers 2 shows no signs of slowing down, as recent reports indicate that Arrowhead Games Studios, the Swedish developer behind the game, has sold over eight million copies since its release on both PS5 and PC just last month.

According to TD Cowen analyst Doug Creutz (thanks, VGC), who spoke to Bloomberg, it is believed that the game has exceeded expectations in terms of performance. It’s amazing how word-of-mouth buzz and the unconventional guerilla marketing strategy keep driving up recruitment numbers week after week. Arrowhead’s studio motto, “A game for everyone is a game for no one,” reflects their unwavering commitment to their unique internal design philosophy.

It appears that the PC community has recently surpassed the PlayStation fanbase in terms of player numbers and platform preference. However, thanks to crossplay, both groups continue to benefit from the growing popularity of gaming. Although it’s not particularly thrilling to see yet another service game achieve rapid success, the hardcore nature of Helldivers 2 fills us with optimism for Sony’s ongoing live gaming endeavors. We anticipate dedicating ourselves to the defense of Super Earth for many years to come.

What are your thoughts on Creutz’s sales estimate? Does it come as a surprise to you? Does it exceed or fall short of your expectations? Have you noticed any changes in your level of enthusiasm for the Democratic Party? Has it waned or grown stronger? We would greatly appreciate your feedback in the comments section below.

E3 is long gone, but that doesn’t mean we won’t have any exciting video game events this summer. Geoff Keighley, the host, has just revealed that the highly anticipated Summer Game Fest event is making a comeback on Friday, June 7th, at 5 PT/5 p.m. ET/10 p.m. BST. The event will be streamed live from the YouTube Theatre in glamorous Los Angeles.

In a recent tweet, Keighley assured his followers that a large number of fans will be present at the event, both in person and online. He expressed excitement about the upcoming cross-platform showcase, where the future of video games will be unveiled. Presumably, PlayStation and other gaming companies will have their own separate livestreams. However, Sony has a tendency to support Summer Game Fest, so it’s worth keeping an eye out for any announcements from them.

If you’re thinking of going, tickets will be available for purchase starting on Tuesday, May 7th. It’s definitely an event worth noting on your calendar. So, what are your expectations for this year’s Summer Game Fest? Feel free to share your dream announcements in the comments section below.
