Sucker Punch Sticks to One-Project Focus, Next Game Decision Coming After Ghost of Yotei: Legends

The studio prioritizes deep focus to iterate, resulting in roughly one major release every five years.

Overview

  • Co-founder Brian Fleming said the team will choose its next project after the Ghost of Yotei: Legends multiplayer add-on launches in 2026.
  • Fleming reaffirmed that Sucker Punch can only do one thing at a time, which makes each selection particularly consequential.
  • Possible directions include continuing the Ghost series or revisiting Sly, with the choice constrained by the single-project approach.
  • Fleming noted franchise shifts can drive staff turnover, as some employees prefer not to work on historical settings like Tsushima.
  • No next game has been announced, and the InFamous director’s interest in a return remains aspirational with no active plans.
