Lost Soul Aside’s Solo Developer Making Plans for the Future; Contacted by Sony and Epic Games

Just to highlight, the final development call for this game is yet to be finalized. But there are reported news that SONY has already contacted the lone game developer to initiate the development discussion, and to consider bringing this game under the PS4 platform. Background below:


Lost Soul Aside is a Final Fantasy XV-inspired game with the combat of Devil May Cry. And in a crazy twist, it’s all being made by just one person.

The game is being created by one man by the name of Yang Bing. The trailer is below if you want to see what all the fuss is about.




"While thanking everyone for the support and for the offers of help, Yang Bing mentioned that he will try to finish the game, but can’t make promises, and won’t ask people for help until he has a viable plan."

"Hello everyone, thanks a lot for supporting me so much, I’m really glad to see that people like it.

I have been working on it in full time for two years, and feed myself by doing freelance things, and actually my plan was to release the trailer as the end of full-time development and to find a full time job, then continue it in part-time with a really slow speed, maybe ten years or more.

My plan should disappoint you but by that way it can be less stressful, It’s kind of selfish, but just as Kazer said in the end scene, it’s just for saving myself.
I really haven’t expected that there wopuld be so many people liking it, which makes me hesitate to do as I planned. Actually, it’s a bit stressful right now.

This may disappoint you, but I can’t tell a lie that the game will come out in another 2 years.

Maybe there will be some opportunity in the future, allowing me to finish it within a team or in full-time. But right now I’m tired and want to rest.

Sorry for disappointing you guys, and thank you again for the encouragement.

There will be updates though.
Thank you again."

Made by one person? Looks like DMC + FF + Ninja Gaiden. Looking at the trailer gameplay quality, no wonder Sony contacted him to discuss on game development plans.
