Sony Worldwide Studios præsident Shuhei Yoshida har indrømmet at han ikke anede at Shenmue 3 og Final Fantasy VII: Remake ville blive annonceret til E3 sammen med The Last Guardian før at prøverne til Sony's pressekonference begyndte.
I et interview med Yoshida der snart bliver publiseret i sin fulde længde fortæller han til Gamereactor at han blev "blæst væk" af afsløringerne fra Square-Enix og Suzuki-san til dette års show.
"We'd been working hard for The Last Guardian, and we were very excited to bring it back to the public, but I didn't know about the other two actually," sagde Sony chefen.
"Right before E3, typically because it's a third-party team's effort to work with third-party publishers and developers to bring games to PlayStation, so it's always my big pleasure to come to the rehearsal and see and learn for the first time what the third-party teams are preparing for."
"And I was blown away by watching the trailer of the Final Fantasy VII Remake and Suzuki-san's announcement of the Kickstarter [for Shenmue 3]. I am so happy going in knowing that all these three things are happening at the same time and we can make people very, very happy."
