Square Enix and PlatinumGames have announced there will not be any news on Babylon’s Fall this summer, but development is going well.
While the game was announced two years ago, and we saw the first gameplay in December 2019, details have been scant. The gameplay shows PlatinumGames’ iconic action style, along with the “Brushwork Filter” to give the game its painting-like look even when in motion.
At the time we heard we would get more news in Summer 2020. However, the game’s official Twitter account has tweeted a statement- revealing that will not be the case. For those relying on machine translation, their statement reads as follows:
“Thank you to all fans who’ve been following along for updates on BABYLON’S FALL.
While we hoped to reveal more about the game this summer, we can share that development on BABYLON’S FALL is continuing to progress well, with the team working safely from home.
SQUARE ENIX and Platinum Games are committed to delivering an exhilarating experience and we look forward to showcasing much more on BABYLON’S FALL to you as soon as we can.”
It is surprising to read that remote working (due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic) has seemingly not caused any production issues for the developer.
While it can be assumed the information not being revealed now is due to being behind schedule, there may be other factors. We will keep you informed as we learn more.
Babylon’s Fall is in development for Windows PC and PlayStation 4.
