As part of the Famitsu 2024 New Year Greetings column talking to important members of the game industry, head of Ys Net Yu Suzuki said that stories like Spy x Family or The Apothecary Diaries could be good for making games. The developer also talked about his goals for the coming year. [Thanks, Famitsu!]
Yu Suzuki didn’t specify or give any details on how stories like Spy x Family could help in making new games. He only suggested they could have potential.
The developer’s keyphrase for 2024 is “create the type of games you want to play yourself.” The developer’s aspirations for the new year consist of forming a project with scriptwriters and musicians from different industries.
In 2023, Suzuki and YS Net released the previously Apple Arcade exclusive rail shooter Air Twister on home consoles and PC. Air Twister is one example of Suzuki collaborating with artists from outside the game industry, as renowned Dutch composer and multi-instrumentalist Valensia created the soundtrack of the game.
Many important names in the games industry talked to Famitsu about their intentions for the new year alongside Suzuki, including PlatinumGames co-founder Hideki Kamiya, NieR series creator Yoko Taro, Sony Head of PlayStation Indies Shuhei Yoshida, and current Silent Hill lead producer Motoi Okamoto.
