Today could be a big day for Japanese developer Platinum Games. The heavily rumoured PlayStation 4 port of The Wonderful 101 is supposedly set to be unveiled shortly via Kickstarter and now the studio has just opened up an all-new teaser site. Simply named "Platinum4", theories as to what this could be are all over the place.
Head to the site itself and you'll be greeted by a glitchy, flickering, spinning number four. That's all we have to go on right now, but what could the page actually be teasing? Some fans think Platinum Games is set to reveal four brand new projects in a reference to the famous Capcom Five while others reckon this is related to the team's new publishing efforts. The glitchy nature of the website alongside its grey colour palette could even tease something to do with NieR.
The developer always has so many games in production that it becomes hard to keep up at times, but we're not going to say no to four more game announcements this fine Monday morning. What do you think this is? A new NieR game? Get glitchy in the comments below.

Drakengard 4?
'4' leaf clover.
The return of Clover Studios?!?
Knack 4
Does look Nierish to me
thought they were not making games for anyone but nintendo now?
@LocalPenguin Be still my beating heart!!! Yes please 😃
This definately has a nier vibe. I still dont know why automata didnt click for me. I feel it was overhyped sadly
@kyleforrester87 @DrClayman I think this is one of the most probable outcomes. With Automata's success, basically saving Platinum, I can see them collaborating with Yoko Taro again - this time with Drakengard (it'd also be a way for them to repurpose some of their Scalebound work, potentially).
@DrClayman yeah pretty sure it is, the aesthetics of the number is a dead giveaway
GIVE ME MORE NIERRRRRRR
Nier automata 2, babylon fall, wonderful 101 port, and maybe bayonetta 2 port
This is definitely Nier related. My personal hope is for some kind of prequel set during the first machine war (and that it's exclusively for next-gen).
I'm hoping for something Nier related. Platinum have a good track record, so whatever the tease is, it's bound to be something interesting.
@suikoden Not really. They make exclusives that Nintendo pays for, but Nintendo doesn’t own them. Platinum had already released NieR Automata when AC and Bayonetta 3 were in development.
The number 4!?
Guess I'll die.
@wiiware Gotta tell ya, Bayonetta 2 ain’t happenin.
Metal gear rising 2, please!
I wanna say nier but the Platinum 4 hashtag is making me think different
@Octane lol
The glitchy chroma aberration effect looks a lot like NieR Automata.
Maybe the "4" is a glitched "A"
@LiamCroft So the first star is now marked "TW101 KS" so its clear we have 3 more bits of news coming from Platinum
uhm im still confused as to why they havent released any other bayonetta to ps4. whats up with nintendo stealing this IP?? im sorry, i cant concentrate on anything else they do UNTIL they goddamn bring bayonetta back to PLAYSTATION! until then, its like; yeh yeh you do this or that, WHERE IS BAYONETTA FOR PLAYSTATION BY THE WAY MIND ME ASKING!?
