Sony XDev Europe, the Liverpool-based group responsible for external PlayStation projects, is planning some “fantastic announcements” at GamesCom. The outfit teased the tidbit on its Twitter page, adding that it’s “looking forward" to the show. The platform holder’s set to host a press conference on 20th August, where the spotlight will supposedly be pointed at the PlayStation 4.
For those out of the loop, Sony XDev Europe has worked on dozens of games, from LittleBigPlanet through to Heavenly Sword. The unit focuses its efforts on supporting independent developers working on exclusive games. So, titles such as Heavy Rain, Tumble, and Super Stardust HD fit under that bracket.
Speaking of which, we suspect that one of its reveals will relate to Housemarque. The Finnish studio has already confirmed that it will be in attendance at the German convention this month, presumably to pull back the curtain on its recently revealed PS4 projects.
But what else could the unit have to show? Well, we’ve got our fingers crossed for some new PlayStation Vita titles. It would also be nice to see some fresh content for Wonderbook – the whole initiative seems to have cooled off recently, but there are still supposedly a couple of Disney titles in the pipeline. What are you hoping to see? Let us know in the comments section below.

Heavenly sword 2? A man can dream i guess....
@Sanquine ... I would be ok with this!
please somehow be working on a new legend of dragoon......my most requested RPG reboot of all time!
The first story was complete and no sequel needs to be made so i say a new world or universe!
@Sanquine that would be awesome! Heavenly Sword was one of the first games I bought for the PS3.
@Sanquine I heard that Guerrilla is working on HS2.
I want NT to make HS2 not Guerrilla.
I think we'll see little big planet 3 and hopefully it will be set in a 3d world. I hope housemarque is working on dead nation 2 love that game.
I don't think MM is making a return to LBP, The same thing was mentioned in the recent podcast over at IGN.
@Sanquine
Yup, I would love a sequel to Heavenly Sword. The first only took about 5 hours to complete but it was a very awesome 5 hours. I actually enjoyed the game more than any of the God of Wars. I think it's because Nariko is infinitely more likeable than Kratos.
@get2sammyb. YEAH, i also approve my choice.
@PMasterTy9 Same here buddy!
@Lelouch Than im convinced that it will be a superb game. If its developed by GG ofcourse
@Gamer83 Same here. I like kratos but the story never did what HS did
No more wonderbook presentations, for the love of god!!
Im not gona get hyped from the tweets. Last time they said they had huge vita reveals for E3, and had a new big exclusive for it. Nothing happened apart from indie games we already new about.
Hopefully if im under hyped for gamescom ill be blown away if they do show amazing stuff for vita!
@SuperSilverback
I know who your talking about and he didn't promise a big PS Vita game for E3, all he did was tease it and say the announcement was delayed.
I'm pretty sure that XDev in europe teased something for the Vita also and claims it will get the love that it needs!
