The Making of Sorcery May 18, 2012

I was first exposed to Sorcery when it was demoed along with the Playstation Move control system for the first time back at Sony’s E3 2010 Press Conference.  At the time it looked like the game was going to be the killer app for the Move.  A game where you controlled an arcane sorcerer and could use the Playstation Move controller as if it was a magic wand fascinated me, and the mature art style was unique and stood out tremendously in comparison to the shooters and role-playing games of our day.  But after that E3 the project just went dark.  Down the line, the Playstation Move was released, but no mention of what happened to Sorcery.

Well, Sorcery is close to being on track for release and to commemorate it, Sony has released an in-depth multi-part documentary series about the making of the game.  In it, they talk about the inspiration of the game’s style and all kinds of tidbits about the game’s development.

Sorcery is coming May 22nd, 2012 exclusive to the Playstation 3.
