Brought them into After Effects and they don't match up perfectly, like each gif is a slightly different angle. And it doesn't really illuminate any new information anyways :p

Looks kinda simple for both real time and prerendered graphics. VR title?

A smaller title, starring a ballerina. The quality of animation will be a major focal point. The game is a byproduct of SSM's work on a new animation system for GOW4 and/or their general PS4 engine.

End prediction.
 
I can't combine them atm but I will when I get home.

Since the other thread here got locked for being by a community manager, I thought I'd make a new one since the subject matter isn't an issue but rather who made the thread? I mean considering it gave us this the thread definitely deserves to exist:

Anyway, I'm guessing that it has nothing to do with GoW and is a smaller game like Everybody's Gone to the Rapture.

VR black swan game so all gaffers can feel what it's like to slowly lose sanity while learning how to dance at the same time.

Maybe goddess of war?!?!

My serious guesses would be it's either another studio's project they're assisting with, or a God of War game with a new protagonist and/or multiple protagonists.

I don't think they have enough people to get a new IP out the door at this point, especially since they canceled their last one and I feel they most likely went to a "safe" project after that.

Thanks for the repost, we'll look for a bit more indirect path going forward, that may still send you in circles =)

Talk about circles, infinite URL links and gifs of spinning feet

SSM making a game about timeloops... or carousels?

Hopefully multiple protagonists handled like in GTA5. When you switch back from Pandora to Kratos you just see him in the middle of bashing someone's head in.

I self-censored my Kratos to Ajax switch. People with cursory knowledge of greek myth know why.

Everybody's Gone to the Rapture was also multiplatform, at one point.

Yes, until they ran out of money. Then Sony stepped in, locked it down as an exclusive, and had Santa Monica help The Chinese Room finish the game.

TGC got their funding via private equity for their next game. Unless the budget have bloated since, it sounds like they're in good financial shape to make their new game.

Also gave it a try and my result is a bit different:


I could see this being a new Fat Princess title, maybe. Could be a trailer with a beautiful ballerina dancing gracefully to classical music before she's squashed to death by Fat Princess :p.

They probably have more people than ND did when they got the TLOU going. Although, I'm with you on the safe project line of thought.

Probably another artsy game like Entwined.

Nothing to get excited about.

The days of Santa Monica being the God of War studio are long gone.

There is a new Fat Princess on the way.
