In a recent conversation with Haelian on YouTube, Amir Rao, co-founder and studio director of Supergiant Games, shared insights into the studio’s future following the release of Hades 2 from early access. Despite the excitement surrounding the game, Rao conveyed a sense of uncertainty regarding the next steps for the studio.
Future Possibilities
When prompted about potential projects, including the possibility of a Hades 3, Rao emphasized the organic nature of their development process. “Our process is really natural and has always been the same around this,” he stated, hinting at the studio’s commitment to creativity over rigid planning.
Supergiant Games, a tight-knit team of just 25 individuals, has built a reputation for its unique storytelling and innovative gameplay. The San Francisco Chronicle highlighted this aspect, noting the studio’s ability to create immersive experiences despite its small size.
While Rao remained noncommittal about specific future titles, one can’t help but imagine the creative potential brewing within the studio. Speculation runs rampant about a secret vision board filled with ideas for sequels to their beloved title, Bastion. Among the rumored concepts are:
- Bastion 2: Beyond the Walls
- Bastion 3: The Kid No More
- Bastion 4: Combat Racing
- Bastion 0: Stranger’s Story
- Bastion Gaiden: Girl’s Side
- Bastion, the Anime (Amazon Prime Studios)
As fans eagerly await news of what lies ahead for Supergiant Games, the studio’s dedication to its craft remains a constant, promising that whatever comes next will be infused with the same passion and creativity that have defined their previous works.
