Naturally, this quote ruffled a lot of feathers, and it was so widely reported that S-GAME itself has had to come out and make a statement. Basically, the developer attempts to shoot down the ongoing controversy.
"Recently, we noticed that some media outlets have claimed to have interviewed an unnamed developer from S-GAME at ChinaJoy, who seems to have made some statements regarding the release platforms and strategy for Phantom Blade Zero," it writes.
"We want to clarify that these claimed statements do not represent S-GAME’s values or culture, as we believe in making our game accessible to everyone and have not ruled out any platforms for Phantom Blade Zero," it continues.
The statement concludes: "We are hard at work on both the development and publishing fronts to ensure that as many players as possible can enjoy our game at release and in the future."
Ultimately, it's a shame that the studio's had to make an official statement to begin with, but it should hopefully calm everyone down.
Phantom Blade Zero doesn't have a release window yet, but it's presumed to be targeting 2025. Oh, and it'll have a demo at Gamescom later this month, so we should be getting a glut of new information very soon indeed.
