Did Sony want to make God of War and Uncharted remakes? Talk to a former employee

According to what emerged in the past few hours, Sony was intent on making remakes of some of his most successful titles, as the Uncharted trilogy And that of God of War. The news would have been spread by a former employee of the Japanese giant, who in addition to talking about his work experience at one of the PlayStation Studios studios, would have admitted that Sony was interested in bringing some of its most successful exclusives back to life in a modern way. Among the titles mentioned we find the first God of War, which for the uninitiated was released back in 2005, and the famous saga of Uncharted made by Naughty Dog.

The employee in question is Michael Mumbauer, former head of Sony San Diego Studio, who allegedly revealed to the director of Twisted Metal and God of War, David Jaffe, which the company originally entrusted him with overseeing a visual arts group that provided support to other Sony-owned software houses, but eventually his role took on a new form, oriented more towards the realization of remakes and remastered. Unfortunately for various reasons, also due to the change at the top of the company, thehe idea of ​​making God of War and Uncharted remakes remained in its infancy, resulting at the moment in a stalemate.

According to Michael Mumbauer, both titles could have been hugely successful if they had gotten a treatment similar to the much-loved one Final Fantasy 7 Remake by Square Enix, but clearly we have no certainty about the final quality of the projects, given that we do not know the creative skills of the new development team. At the moment we do not know for sure what the project is in development at Sony San Diego Studio, but several rumors suggest that the software house is working on the alleged Uncharted 5.
