Developer Folks Can Fly and Sony Interactive Leisure have entered a partnership to provide a brand new online game codenamed “Challenge Delta” the businesses introduced right this moment. As this partnership was set in stone yesterday, what this challenge may very well be is unknown. Nevertheless, PlayStation followers appear to be satisfied it could be a brand new SOCOM sport.
Due to an eagle-eyed Reddit consumer from the PS5 subreddit, Folks Can Fly and Sony will work collectively to create a brand new sport primarily based on one in all Sony’s IP. The Polish developer is thought for its work on shooters like Outriders and Gears of Struggle: Judgment. With that in thoughts, that limits the pool of accessible PlayStation IPs only a bit. From the aforementioned thread, it appears most are in favor of this being a brand new SOCOM sport. Additionally talked about are Killzone, Resistance, and Warhawk.
“Needs to be both Socom or Killzone since this firm largely makes shooters,” says one redditor. “Resistance as nicely is an efficient guess.”
“Wouldn’t thoughts seeing a reboot of Warhawk,” says one other Redditor. “That sport had the Fortnite potential earlier than Fortnite. Sony simply kinda failed to essentially capitalize on it.”
“Please God, let it’s Resistance,” pleads a Redditor.
After all, this actually is all hypothesis. Who is aware of, it might even be a third-person shooter primarily based on Knack. We most likely received’t know what that is for a number of years.
For these unaware, SOCOM was a third-person tactical shooter sequence that noticed entries on PS2, PS3, and PSP. The final title of the franchise was SOCOM 4: U.S. Navy SEALs in 2011. When it launched, the critiques had been pretty blended. In accordance with the evaluation combination web site Metacritic, it acquired a mean rating of 67 throughout 64 critic critiques. The sequence has been dormant ever since.
