Hope for a Scalebound Revival: Kamiya's Call to Xbox Leadership

The world of gaming has experienced its fair share of disappointments, particularly when it comes to ambitious projects that never make it to market. A notable case is Scalebound, an eagerly awaited RPG developed by PlatinumGames that was designed to highlight the strengths of Xbox consoles. Intended to be one of the standout titles during the Xbox One generation, the game faced numerous setbacks during a time when Microsoft struggled against its rival in both hardware and software. Despite glimpses of potential through trailers and gameplay, Scalebound was ultimately shelved. However, one prominent figure is keen to revitalize it for the fans.

In a recent post shared by Clovers Inc., the Japanese studio led by Hideki Kamiya reflected on Scalebound's past while expressing a strong desire to see it revived. In a comment made on a video directed at the head of Microsoft Gaming, he simply stated his eagerness to make it happen, urging collaboration with the leadership at Xbox.

This doesn't guarantee that Scalebound will ever see the light of day, but as Xbox continues to strengthen its foothold in Japanese and Eastern markets, the prospect of partnering with a renowned developer like Kamiya could play a pivotal position. Granting him the chance to develop a game that captivated audiences previously is undoubtedly an exciting proposition.
