We’d initially thought we would use Move to support UGC authors–but as we progressed, we became convinced we could make the game fully playable with Move. So it was decided, and work began!Ībout the same time, we had some promising PlayStation Move prototypes running. There was a lot to like about this pitch, some important ones were: finally getting to add flying to inFAMOUS, the strong “Pyre Night” set dressing we could add to New Marais, a solid supernatural basis for new powers, and of course having a launch date in the days before Halloween didn’t hurt, either. The pitch was that Zeke was trying to impress a girl with a tall tale about Cole, Vampires, and the origins of Pyre Night.

One of the strong pitches we got was originally called “Vampire City” (a play on “Empire City” from inFAMOUS).

We wanted something that fit the world of inFAMOUS, would be fun to work on, and ideally would be unexpected, too. We knew we couldn’t just release some more missions or a skin pack, so we took a bunch of pitches from all the departments here at the studio for what we might do.

We wanted the DLC to be a chance to take all that art and technology and do something fun and different for players. I’ll start with the marketing facts ( inFAMOUS: Festival of Blood available now!!!! $9.99!! Only $7.99 if you are a PlayStation Plus member!!!) but really, I thought I’d give you a little insight into why and how we ended up making a vampire based spin-off of inFAMOUS.įor us, we’d been working for two projects and five-plus years on the main storyline of inFAMOUS. It’s been a long time since my last PlayStation.Blog post, and today’s entry is a little….different.
