There's plenty we don't know about what goes on within the game industry, but it's pretty obvious to suggest there are plenty of projects being worked on right now we have no idea exists. Colin Moriarty, forging his own path post-Kinda Funny, no doubt has plenty of connections, so he's probably more in the know than most.
In a response to a fan question on Twitter, Moriarty let out an aside that suggests there's a "fairly substantial PS4 exclusive yet to be announced from second party."
Second party in this case refers to a studio independent of Sony producing a game exclusively for PlayStation 4. Insomniac Games is probably the most famous example of this in light of Marvel's Spider-Man and many other titles, but other examples include Quantic Dream's Detroit: Become Human and Supermassive Games' Until Dawn. It's an arrangement Sony's utilised many times throughout PlayStation's history, and it's likely most of Worldwide Studios is working on PS5 games, so an unannounced exclusive from a second party makes sense.
The only title we can think of that this may refer to is Bluepoint's long-rumoured remake of Demon's Souls, but realistically, this could be almost anything. What do you think Colin Moriarty could be talking about here? Does he know something, or is this a whole lot of nothing? Speculate away in the comments below.

syphon filter remake confirmed😇.word up son
Yeah it’s got to be Bluepoints game.
I imagine all the First-Party studios are working on PS5 games at this point.
I believe Sony will surprise a lot of people by buying new studios justfor the arrival of ps5.word up son
Please please be Dark Cloud 3!!
Until Dawn 2 baby, Supermassive has confirmed to have unannounced PlayStation exclusives in the works, one can dream.
So third party studio making an exclusive PlayStation game. Get out with that ''second party'' nonsense
@Fight_Sora_Fight Definitely another Bluepoint remake.
Would the Spiderman sequel count? It’s technically unannounced, but pretty inevitable.
Probably a long way from release, but I bet Insomniac is working on it.
In a few months or next year maybe... Or the next year a new exclusive is announced..
*Colin was right!
Here's hoping Colin was right.
Thats a pretty generic/safe comment. Thats like saying theres prob someone somewhere breathing right now.
Where the he'll is the final fantasy 7 remake 😭😭😭😭😭
He is close with insomniac, its ratchet and clank.
@QualityGeezer I suspect it will launch on the next generation machines; at this point, FFVII Remake looks like it's going to be this generation's The Last Guardian to me.
@Turismo4GT I can handle the wait as long as they don't butcher the game just seems like a long long time since the announcement
Syphon. Filter. PLEEEEEEEASE.
Resistance remaster collection or colony war remaster collection?
Colin is really tight with housemarque I can see something coming out from them soon since it’s been awhile
I hope it is a Syphon Filter remake or a stand-alone game, yeah, even if it is not directly from Bend Studio.
Bring me Syphon Filter: Dark Mirror remastered.
I wish Konami would get Bluepoint to give Metal Gear Solid the ground up treatment. That game deserves to be modernised for what it did for the games industry. Well that & Ocarina of Time, if they could get the Resident Evil 2 treatment
This is awesome! A whole article to report that a bloke said "something somewhat big is coming from somewhere". And it isn't any more specific than this.
@Rhaoulos Half of this website is like this. He heard, she heard...it's become very buzzfeed... What ever happened to real gaming journalism??
@TheGreatHahn Well, I am not too bothered by rumours, but this article says absolutely nothing.
I suppose there is not enough news lately
I'm calling either a Bluepoint or Supermassive game.
"there's a fairly substantial PS4 exclusive yet to be announced from second party"
"The only title we can think of that this may refer to is Bluepoint's long-rumoured remake of Demon's Souls"
Would/could a remake/remaster of a PS3 game this late in PS4's life cycle really be considered 'substantial' though? 🤔 My guess would be a completely new title.
Some from Ready at Dawn imo.
Nice click-baity thumb you got there. I suspected the article wouldn't say anything at all about nothing in particular, only clicked because of Connor .
Legend of Dragoon remake 😁
I’d suspect that this is accurate. Colin spent a lot of time in the industry and has a lot of friends within it. The people who have issues with him have issues because of political reasons, not journalistic integrity. If Colin is talking about it I believe it
Oh Colin, you of all people should know "second party" has been an incorrectly used term since at least the 1990's. I'm guilty of using it for years until I learned otherwise.
But coming from the guy who was so arrogantly confident Vita would outsell 3DS "CUZ MOAR POWAH", I'm not surprised.
BTW no, I'm unshockingly not a fan of his, lol. 😜 However, he never should have lost his job over that in-jest tweet. That was pure BS.
@TheGreatHahn Real gaming journalism? Nothing happened to it. It's always been like this.
