The military-themed turn-based strategy game is powered by Unreal.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size: 14pt;color: #000000\">As a separate publishing entity from Sony Interactive Entertainment, Unties under Sony Music is investing in the indie space, regardless of platform. The new publisher&#8217;s slate of other upcoming games include two coming to PC, with the potential for console releases, as well as a PS4 game with PSVR compatibility.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size: 14pt;color: #000000\">The official Unties announcement states that the publisher is intended to &#8220;unearth high-quality titles&#8221; that might be otherwise buried in the massive number of independently developed games being produced. Specifically, Sony Music has created Unties to respond to the &#8220;indie game movement centered around North America,&#8221; which is &#8220;continuing to draw attention even within Japan.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size: 14pt;color: #000000\">As for the publisher&#8217;s platform agnosticism, rather than being tied solely to the PS4 and PS Vita, Unties announcement declares that the intention is to use Sony Music Entertainment&#8217;s &#8220;vast entertainment business wisdom in order to expose them to as many consumers as possible.&#8221; Unties will also be handling the PR and sales of its games across platforms.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size: 14pt;color: #000000\">Following games to come from Unties include the 3D action game Last Standard, coming to PC and other to-be-announced consoles, Merkava Avalanche, a 3D robot action game for PC and possibly other platforms, and the PS4 game Deemo -Reborn- (working title), to be available with VR compatibility via PSVR.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size: 14pt;color: #000000\">Sony PlayStation itself, meanwhile, announced earlier last year its intention to branch out into mobile publishing, with games based on popular Sony franchises coming to smartphones this year in Japan.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size: 14pt;color: #000000\">Sony Online Entertainment, now Daybreak Entertainment, also previously published games on other platforms, including DC Universe Online and Payday: The Heist.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size: 8pt\">Source:-\u00a0http:\/\/in.ign.com\/tiny-metal\/114342\/news\/sony-to-publish-nintendo-switch-games-under-new-label-unties<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"fb-background-color\">\n\t\t\t  <div \n\t\t\t  \tclass = \"fb-comments\" \n\t\t\t  \tdata-href = \"https:\/\/www.biphoo.com\/bipnews\/entertainment\/games\/sony-to-publish-nintendo-switch-games-under-new-label-unties.html\"\n\t\t\t  \tdata-numposts = \"10\"\n\t\t\t  \tdata-lazy = \"true\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-colorscheme = \"light\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-order-by = \"social\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-mobile=true>\n\t\t\t  <\/div><\/div>\n\t\t  <style>\n\t\t    .fb-background-color {\n\t\t\t\tbackground: #ffffff !important;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t.fb_iframe_widget_fluid_desktop iframe {\n\t\t\t    width: 630px !important;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t  <\/style>\n\t\t  ","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>SONY TO PUBLISH NINTENDO SWITCH GAMES UNDER NEW LABEL UNTIES SONY TO PUBLISH NINTENDO SWITCH GAMES UNDER NEW LABEL UNTIES:- A new game publishing label has been formed under Sony Music Entertainment, Unties, with the intention of publishing games across not just Sony platforms, but others including the Nintendo Switch [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":12,"featured_media":48039,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[923],"tags":[80570,80571,80572,80568,80567,80566,80569,80573],"class_list":["post-48035","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-games","tag-action-game-for-pc","tag-daybreak-entertainment","tag-dc-universe-online","tag-new-game-publishing","tag-nintendo-switch-and-pc","tag-sony-music-entertainment","tag-sony-online-entertainment","tag-vr-compatibility-via-psvr"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.biphoo.com\/bipnews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/48035","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.biphoo.com\/bipnews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.biphoo.com\/bipnews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.biphoo.com\/bipnews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/12"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.biphoo.com\/bipnews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=48035"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.biphoo.com\/bipnews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/48035\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.biphoo.com\/bipnews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/48039"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.biphoo.com\/bipnews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=48035"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.biphoo.com\/bipnews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=48035"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.biphoo.com\/bipnews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=48035"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
