PlatinumGames says no DLC planned for Astral Chain, thinking about ways to make a trilogy or more
Posted on 5 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
Update: Since time of publishing, game director Takashi Taura has clarified that IGN Benelux’s report was mistranslated.
Instead of what was previously reported, the correct translation is that he is “thinking about various ways that it can be expanded into a trilogy or more.”
Original: It sounds like Astral Chain won’t be getting any DLC after launch. However, we could be seeing more from the IP in the future.
Speaking with IGN Benelux, director Takahisa Taura was asked about the possibility of extra content following release. While he shot that down, he noted that PlatinumGames is thinking about Astral Chain as a trilogy. We could see it turn into a proper series if the first game sells well, he said.
