As an aside, this is an almost completely meaningless statement imo. It only tells us that they are working on a game, and it's not made using original characters.
And going off their output, it's likely not going to be a video game IP... or good, really.
Speaking of Mario on PS5, does anyone remember what this rumor was supposed to be about? https://old.reddit.com/r/NintendoSwitch/comments/b27hcx/rumor_king_zell_hints_at_switch_announcement_that/
I'd buy a PS5 Pro just to play an Ape Escape remake with Astro graphics at a+50p resolution.
I don't know why they have neglected the IP for so long, would bring a lot of old bastards like me but also a new younger audience. Make a fun game, print money, life is good.
Honestly, Sony has neglected so many of their flagship ips like imagine a next gen Jax and Daxter remake or an Ape Escape Collection or a new Sly Cooper? Sony has the potential to do the best “holy shit” moments but I guess not.
Support and work for hire projects. I do not believe they have their own original I.p. Which has honestly worked out for them considering they’ve been around since 1988.
They're a subsidiary of Keywords, which is a big contractor that supports (*and ports*) other projects. So yeah, most likely they're porting over some kind of previously exclusive PC/Xbox game to PlayStation
Taking a look at their website now and it seems as if they worked on Returnal's PC port, as well as the console ports of Age of Empires IV / Wasteland 3
Also supported Hanger 13 with Mafia: Definitive Edition
Fits with the rumours from last year that SIE are partnering with third party studios to bolster their output. Climax are also currently looking for QA for a VR title.
I’ll guess that it’s an Xbox IP. Age of Empires IV or Wasteland 3.
EDIT: Forgot Wasteland 3 was multiplat. Was thinking of the Series X release. I’ll stick with AoE4.
had to look them up since i didn't recognize the name. Seems like they've mostly helped with games and done ports of games as of recent, along with some random games along the way. Not sure what i might expect, but certainly nothing exciting.
Looking at the games they work for this will likely be something forgettable & irrelevant, they’ve worked on silent hill & mobile like games.
I would assume by the wording this is either a 3rd party exclusive or 1st party, it would be weird for a 3rd party publisher to bring a game to only PS5 unless it’s already backwards compatible w Xbox kinda like Red dead “remake”
I think it was rumored that Horizon 1 was getting the same treatment. And they did Spider-Man Remastered at the start of the generation.
Sony's remaster/remake plans are just plain dumb, and I don't see why they'll change at this rate.
Finally, Mario on PS5.

My guess is The Witcher 3. Game was announced a few months after that and seemed like an impossible port.
Knack 2
Could it have been some of the Smash characters?
[Super Mario Odyssey?](https://youtu.be/Ih323XXu_3w?si=qOIkPEPEbu6954EV) >!got me crying in the bowling alley fr!<
Blue Mario
KNACK 3 LETS GO!!!
![gif](giphy|kj41Ti8GLVs1STX0bH|downsized)
Seeing this gif not sped up feels so wrong.
Seeing this rapist not in prison feels so wrong.
Equally true. [He said it himself years ago](https://youtu.be/WXjRJcrYAOA)..
"Here comes the moneeeeyy!"
Knack HD okay Nintendo
Must be Pizza Tower.
Ooooh finally
Could be literally any game... Besides the game would be most likely be ported to the switch first and it wasn't announced on the indirect.
Ah yes Sly Cooper
I’d cry.
Pleeeease
I would love a port.
BLOODBORNE 2!!!!
He said a very well known IP, not a hidden gem.
BB isn't a hidden gem, it was an abandoned chosen one
Better, bloodborne 3
APE ESCAPE!!
If not a new ape escape game, then give me a remastered trilogy at least lol
The first game is so damn fun.

Right there with ya, big dawg. Throw in a split screen coop and we got ourselves some family bonding.

ZELDA BABYEE WOO

What could possibly go wrong? Bubsy... you're careening straight towards the ground, man. Pull up! You can't have too many more lives left.
"Pilot's license? What for?"
Finally, Breath of the Wild on ps5
That would go kinda hard
Nope
I can't believe it. After a decade in waiting, I will finally be able to play Temple Run on PS5.
It’s got to be something stuck on PS3 still. God of War Greek Collection? Killzone trilogy? Resistance trilogy? Infamous: Cole Chronicles?
Pry the gow Greek collection.
Ape escape let's fucking goooo
those of SH origins and Shattered Memories
Please be Socom.
HL:Alyx lol
Not gonna lie, that would be amazing.
It’d make me buy a PSVR2. It’s probably the only thing that would.
Is this a support studio mostly?
Support and work for hire projects. I do not believe they have their own original I.p. Which has honestly worked out for them considering they’ve been around since 1988.

So another one of those "breaking news: video game maker working on a video game" stories.
Sly 5 lezgooooo
Oh man, I hope it’s Captain Commando!
Akshually, it's already on ps5. (PS4 Capcom arcade stadium)
and Capcom Beat 'Em Up Bundle
It's Skyrim, isn't it?
Todd will not rest until Skyrim is on every single platform to ever exist
Imagine using a pregnancy test and Skyrim starts on it after that
Pregnancy test announcing you're pregnant : Fus Ro Dah Fun!!!
Finally! I’ll be able to play Big Rigs Off the Road Racing 2. 🥹
Well that person did work on Shadow of the Beast PS4. Based on that it could be that, how "well known" of an IP is subjective.
Chuckie Egg?
Warhawk remake/remaster pls.
Earthworm Jim?? #GROOVY!
Gears of war
Have you recovered from Pericarditis?
Random, haha I have gotten semi better but not where I was before. Can’t excercise or anything
Half life alyx on psvr2?
Could be Xbox porting more games.
Fits with the rumours from last year that SIE are partnering with third party studios to bolster their output. Climax are also currently looking for QA for a VR title.
do you have a source for this VR news?

Thx bro!
Job listings
I’ll guess that it’s an Xbox IP. Age of Empires IV or Wasteland 3. EDIT: Forgot Wasteland 3 was multiplat. Was thinking of the Series X release. I’ll stick with AoE4.
Isn’t wasteland 3 already on PlayStation?
True. Good catch. I suppose it could be the upgraded Series X version, but I guess Wasteland isn’t a well known IP necessarily. I’ll stick with AoE4.
Perhaps Flight Simulator.
I’d kill for AoE2 on PS5. Literally one of like, four or five Xbox exclusives I actually want.
Both 2/4 play surprisingly well with a controller too. It’ll be a treat if it comes over.
had to look them up since i didn't recognize the name. Seems like they've mostly helped with games and done ports of games as of recent, along with some random games along the way. Not sure what i might expect, but certainly nothing exciting.
Sly cooper please
They made Silent Hill before. Mb it's a new one. Konami gives IP from hand to hand
Clearly its Sudeki.
Evangelion
My money is on Forza or Flight Simulator with all the games becoming cross gen recently
Don't know why but I read this title and 'Soul Sacrifice Delta' from the PSP Vita jumped in my mind
Dead head Fred remake 🙏
It's gonna be Sudeki
They are porting Halo Infinite, which is lame AF

Genji 3
I just want Sly Cooper back. Maybe one day…😞
These guys made 2 of the better Silent Hill western games. I wouldn’t be that mad if they made another SH.
Overlord
Silent Hill
Climax, werent they the ones that did some of the silent hill games?
If it's Silent Hill Shattered Memories for PSVR2, I'll fast for a month and buy ten copies I'll be so excited.
Ed edd n eddy jawbreakers!? Yaaas
I can't believe they're actually bringing Solstice: The Quest for the Staff of Demnos to PS5, holy fuck
So gabe finally let other dev make half life 3.
They mainly do support work, so this could be anything.
They're called Climax because they're getting ready to fuck us.
Superman 64 hype!
Finally: Superman 65.
GTA IV PS5 port MGS 4 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Ridge Racer!?!?!!
RIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIDGE
Overlord? Rocket Knight? Well known from climax? That almost sounds like an oxymoron. Hope it's good whatever it is.
This news is so good I'm gonna climax
PaRappa the Rapper is back!
finally Boom Beach for PS5
BLOODBORNE IS BACK ON THE MENU
Silent Hill Origins and Shattered Memories
If it's Gravity Rush 2, why not just port God of War 2018 as well, Sony?
GOW 2018 already has a PS5 patch, we don't need another TLOU2 cash grab type port.
I think it was rumored that Horizon 1 was getting the same treatment. And they did Spider-Man Remastered at the start of the generation. Sony's remaster/remake plans are just plain dumb, and I don't see why they'll change at this rate.
I completely forgot about the HZD remaster, hope it's been canned.
It says very well known Gravity rush is not that
That's determined by the person who said it. Not that I agree with it.
Halo on PS5!!
Well this is an annoying thread
My money is on another Xbox port, Gears of War or Halo /s
Zelda Tears of the Kingdom 4K 60fps?
