Ninja Theory‘s action–adventure game Enslaved – which focuses a female named Trip using a slave-tamed Monkey (that’s his name) to travel across the United States and back to safety – has completed development, if Namco Bandai Partners VP Olivier Comte has anything to say about it.
“There is no doubt, this is priority number one,” Comte told CVG at the publisher’s recent Barcelona event. “The game is already finished as of a couple of weeks and months ago and they are polishing the game.
“Everything is on track. The studio has a good track record and I think this is the best game that they’ve ever made. They have the best music, the best art design, the best writers… honestly, we have everything to build a very, very strong franchise. I will be very sad if we miss it.”
It looks like the publisher is really pushing the game as a future franchise, as well.
“I don’t know if it’ll work but I can’t imagine it won’t. What I know is that I can guarantee that this will be the priority number one title for the company worldwide and we will make all the effort necessary to make it a success and to build the franchise.”
