"Cultural Group: 1886" was originally planned to produce a trilogy and add a multiplayer mode

　　It is revealed that PlayStation secretly developed a sequel to "Court: 1886", and plans to introduce larger combat scenes and multiplayer content. This steampunk third-person shooter game launched in 2015 was created by Ready at Dawn Studio, which was developed in the PSP version of God of War, and takes London, which is a historically erected world as the stage.

Although the game screen has been highly praised, the media has mixed reviews. Creative Director Ru Weerasuriya recently revealed to Julien Chieze that he had written a 10-page plan for the sequel, including:

　　· A battle system with a large scale upgrade

　　· A multiplayer model in which the previous work was shelved (transfer to sequel development)

　　· A planned trilogy architecture ("Ceur 1891" "Ceur 1899")

　　· A series of worldview blueprints that extend to the 20th century

Weerasuriya admitted that the controversial evaluation of the first generation of works directly led to the series being cut in half. Ready at Dawn co-founder Andrea Pessino previously talked about the details of the failure of the sequel proposal.

　　Pessino revealed to MinnMax that the final score of "Court: 1886" on Metacritic was 63, far lower than the expected results of the internal simulation review. He believes that this is the key reason why Sony gave up on the sequel development. "The problem is not sales, but media evaluation," Pessino admitted. "Sony is a team with a great sense of honor. If the rating was 70 points at the time, I was sure that the sequel would be approved - that's just a few points."

This studio, which has created PSP masterpieces such as "Dust", "God of War: Olympus Chain", "God of War: Spartan Soul" (Metacritic score 84-91 points), later turned to the development of VR games such as "Lonely Echo", and was closed last year after being acquired by Meta in 2020.
