More than 14 years have passed since the series of shooters of the alternative history remembered with the love of the INSOMNIAC Games developer came to an end with Resistance 3, but it turns out that fans could have seen a fourth main entrance if the study had come out with yours. The boss of outgoing Insomniac has revealed that the study launched a “wonderful concept” for resistance 4, but Sony finally said no.
Price, who announced his retirement last month after more than 30 years in Insomniac, was talking to the type of fun games. When asked if he had a favorite release that the study had done over the years, a “one who escaped,” Price dropped the Resistance 4 bomb.
“We started that,” he revealed, “and it was a wonderful concept … it was the result that many members of the insomnia team passionate about extending history … I think the resistance has established a really great alternative history base where any It can happen with the chimera and where they are going and what are its origins.

“When you work in a franchise for a long time,” he explained, “it is good to have the opportunity to move on to something [Insomniac is] Part of Sony and Sony has the intellectual property of resistance, we will always have the opportunity to visit resistance again. ”
But although fans can be disappointed when listening to resistance 4 that almost was, Price is still philosophical. “I firmly believe that there is a reason why everything happens,” he said a bit fun, “and when I look back in the games we have done, those who received well, those who were not well received, those who could not do , all of them have taken us where we are today.
The next Insomniac game is Wolverine, which mocked in 2021 and still does not have a release window. “We have announced Wolverine, and we would love to talk more about Wolverine,” the study said earlier this year, “but we have to be like Logan today, and remain very stoic until it is time to appear the claws on the road .
