Ninja Theory's forthcoming PlayStation 4 foray Hellblade is clearly a spiritual successor to Heavenly Sword – that name's a dead giveaway, after all – but the Cambridge-based developer has recruited the PlayStation 3 exclusive's art director, Hugues Giboire, just to make the link complete. The veteran has rejoined the team after the departure of a couple of key personnel.
This actually leaves the developer an employee down, as it still has a character artist role to fill. You can find the company's recruitment page through here if you reckon that you'd fit the bill.

I wouldnt mind a Remastering of Heavenly Swords for PS4 when they are done this project. It looks great so far, especially for such a small team working on a AAA title
@NomNom I'd rather have the original PS3 version get a new physical "print run", and/or become available for purchase on PSN again.
I have high hopes, Ninja Theory hasn't let me down yet.
Meh.
@ToddlerNaruto
Yea I agree. It's become tough to find Heavenly Sword for the PS3, if you don't get it used. And even then, it may not be in great condition. And like you said, it's not available digitally on PSN.
I am really looking forward to this game. Ninja Theory rules even though they never gave Heavenly Sword a trophy patch.
PS4 Exclusive? Oh dear i feel sorry for game companies making PS4 Exclusives now(well & the ones who made PS3 Exclusives to) because the internet(99% of gaming sites & the haters who pretend to own a PS Console) never give them a chance :-/ Oh well.
@Godsire- I know I can easily buy an $20-$25 used - like new copy on Amazon, but I'd much rather own a 100$ new copy.
Sadly those sealed shrinkwrapped copies cost crazy $40+ prices...maybe if I had a job or SSI I could do that.
