PlayStation has released several TV shows and films based on its beloved franchises. From The Last of Us to Until Dawn, the company doesn’t seem afraid to bring even its less popular properties to life. That notion seems to continue if a recent report is believed to be true.
The Last Guardian film is in the works
According to video games insider DanielRPK, Sony Pictures and PlayStation Productions are making a film adaptation of Fumito Ueda’s acclaimed PS4 action-adventure game, The Last Guardian. There are no additional details about the project, which may indicate that the film is in the early stages of development.
Fumito Ueda is an iconic and influential game developer known for the critically acclaimed games Ico and Shadow of the Colossus. His games are known for a distinct style, featuring vast landscapes with gameplay that complements their unique storytelling. In terms of cinematics, a film based on The Last Guardian has the potential to look incredible.
How they attempt to tell that tale without the viewer making that connection with Trico, the ginormous dog bird that helps the player move through the ancient ruins, through gameplay will be interesting to see. For those unaware of The Last Guardian, here is a brief description of the game:
“In a strange and mystical land, a young boy discovers a mysterious creature with which he forms a deep, unbreakable bond. The unlikely pair must rely on each other to escape towering, treacherous ruins filled with unknown dangers. Experience the journey of a lifetime in this touching, emotional story of friendship and trust.”
When The Last Guardian launched for PS4 back in 2016, it was met with favorable reviews. According to the review aggregate site Metacritic, it garnered an average score of 82 across 110 critic reviews. In our review, we gave it a 10 out of 10.
As mentioned earlier, PlayStation Productions has released several projects based on its iconic catalog of games. The last film the company released was based on the Supermassive horror adventure game Until Dawn, and is currently available to stream on Netflix. The last television series released was Twisted Metal Season 2, which is currently seven episodes in and is available to stream on Peacock. The company also has Horizon, God of War, and Ghost of Tsushima adaptations in the works.
