The Last Guardian

The Last Guardian isn’t dead. Despite comments from SCEA president Jack Tretton that seemed to insinuate that the title had pegged it, Worldwide Studios America's Scott Rohde has dismissed his boss’ claims, revealing that the title is definitely “still alive”, even though the firm doesn’t have any new details to share.

“We're not talking about when The Last Guardian is coming out, but it is still a game that there's a lot of love for inside PlayStation walls, because everybody sees the emotion that the entire fan base of PlayStation always responds with when we talk about it,” he told Joystiq in an interview earlier in the week. "It is alive."

Worldwide Studios president Shuhei Yoshida echoed Rohde’s comments, explaining that the title is in production as we type. “The game is in active development,” the likeable executive told Kotaku. “[Lead designer Fumito] Ueda-san shared updates a few months ago. Nothing has changed. My answer is, 'Yes, the game is in active development.' It’s not on hiatus at all. But we are not ready to reintroduce it. When we are ready, we will do that. Please wait.”

We’ll just keep twiddling our thumbs, then.
