As revealed on Tuesday, September 29, the former head of Nintendo’s independent developers, Dan Adelman, has announced that he’ll be helping to develop a PlayStation console-exclusive title that is described as a Metroid / Castlevenia -style action-platformer.
Entitled “ Axiom Verge ”, the game itself has actually been in development for the past five years, with its developer, Tom Happ, a Petroglyph Games employee, having worked on the project in his spare time, until he was recently able to work on the title full-time. Adelman will be providing Hap help with the business-related and marketing side of things.
Whilst Axiom Verge will be released for Sony’s PlayStation 4 and PlayStation Vita, a Steam version of the game is also in the works, according to Develop .
” I’ve known Nick Suttner, Adam Boyes, Brian Silva and many of the other Sony folks for a few years now, and I’m really excited to be working directly with them, ” Adelman wrote in his blog post on the matter. ” Although I will always have a special place in my heart for Nintendo, this game is solely focused on PlayStation. ”
