Indigo Prophecy is coming to the PlayStation 4 on August 9 via the PlayStation Store. The game originally launched in 2005 in partnership with Atari, and went through quite a bit before it was ready for the world. Guillaume de Fondaumiere, Quantic Dream co-CEO, talks in the PlayStation blog quite a bit about the negativity surrounding the game in the early days, saying the team’s serenity and faith was in direct opposition to the skepticism.
“This skepticism was so radical that we had to switch publishing partners during the last third of the game’s production. While we were showing off the beta version, a certain group of high-profile professionals even claimed that we would never be able to finish the game!
The reason for this skepticism was that we were creating something radically new, as we were attempting to resolve an equation that many thought was unsolvable: putting the story at the very core of an interactive experience and inventing gameplay that allowed players, through their actions and decisions, to change the way the story unfolds.”
