Media Molecule will be incorporated into SCE Worldwide Studios, and entity that watches over the majority of Sony’s mostly independant development teams. Worldwide Studios includes teams like Naughty Dog, Team ICO, and all of Sony’s other huge developers. We can count on Media Molecule having all the freedom they need to continue creating amazing games.
Here’s a quote about the acquisition from Shuhei Yoshida, President of SCE Worldwide Studios:
With LittleBigPlanet PSP having been released last fall, we’re left to wonder what Media Molecule currently has in development. Perhaps what they’re working on persuaded Sony into buying the company. Either that or all the money that Media Molecule made for them. I can’t wait to see what’s coming up next.
Excited for Media Molecule, Ranters? Or is it disappointing that their games won’t be going multi-console?
