Sony first-party Sucker Punch has taken another step towards PlayStation production powerhouse status, as it's just added the finishing touches to its own internal motion capture studio. Billy Harper, who's the Character and Cinematic Supervisor at the company, revealed the tidbit on Twitter, after taking photographs of the new environment. "Just got real up in here," he said, copying in the developer's official account.
We already know that the Seattle-based organisation intends to push its characters to the next level, as a recent job listing suggested that it still has "big ambitions" and aims to "drop jaws" with its next PlayStation 4 project. Previous rumours have hinted that this will be an open world title of some kind, so an inFAMOUS sequel is a safe bet. Here's hoping that the likes of Troy Baker and Laura Bailey will be taking a tour of the studio's new mo-cap studio soon.

Cannot wait! One of my favorite series!
That's sweet. I don't think it being an open-world title really confirms anything about it being inFamous though. I think they were always going to make an open-world if they made a new IP. Also, wouldn't it be better if you posted the picture they posted instead of one from First Light?
I'm a inFAMOUS fan but a new IP would be great.
I love InFAMOUS, but I agree, I too want a new IP from them. I'm sure they are capable of more than being a one-series wonder.
@NomNom I agree about a new IP, but they aren't a one series wonder. inFamous is their second great series, with Sly Cooper being the first.
I'm up for more inFamous
@Jaz007 Very true, I completely forgot about Sly, gosh its been that long. :x
Suckerpunch are a five star studio and I cant wait for a new IP off them. Is sly cooper good? Ive heard a few of you post about it, but I've never played it.
Infamous Second Son was my first experience of the series and I loved it from start to finish. Even though it was an early PS4 game it looked great. Some of the neon lighting effects were jaw dropping imo. It was also the first PlayStation game I got the platinum trophy for.
I actually bought First Light and really enjoyed that too, but I felt that it could/should of been part of the main games side quests, as that was Second Sons weak point, not enough backstories about its characters. For me though, as a complete package (dlc included), I'd easily score it 9/10.
I'm looking forward to seeing what they have for us next...
I am a big fan of Infamous, but the one thing I don't like is the bipolar Hero/Infamous choices... in order to get the strongest skill set. you are forced to go strictly one direction only..
@Splat
Agreed. I'm a big fan of inFamous and definitely want to see another game in the series. But I also wouldn't mind seeing Sucker Punch get a chance to work on a new IP.
@themcnoisy They're great! Well, the first one is only okay today, but 2&3 area still must-plays. They have great gameplay, characters, humor, and story. The best platformers ever I'd say. There is an HD collection of the series on the PS3 I highly recommend you get.
@Jaz007 gonna look out for it on vita:) dont have a ps3. Thx.
