Resistance 4 Pitch Rejected by Sony, Says Former Insomniac CEO

Ted Price reveals that a concept for Resistance 4 was proposed but declined due to market considerations and timing.

Ted Price, former CEO of Insomniac Games, shared that the studio pitched Resistance 4 to Sony, but the proposal was not approved.
The decision was reportedly influenced by market timing and concerns about overlapping with other post-apocalyptic titles, such as The Last of Us.
Resistance 3, released in 2011, was designed to conclude its narrative arc while leaving room for potential future franchise directions.
The Resistance series, set in an alternate history involving alien invaders, remains a fan-favorite despite its last mainline entry being over a decade old.
Price expressed hope that the franchise could be revisited in the future, as Sony retains ownership of the intellectual property.
