According to well-known game whistleblower @kiwitalkz, in order to persuade Masahiro Sakurai to continue directing the new work of the "Nintendo Star Fight" series, Nintendo has agreed to let him develop the emotional project "Star Kirby: Sky Knight".According to reports, the continuous development of multiple generations of "The Battle" since 2012 has put Sakurai in a period of severe creative burnout, and this transaction can be regarded as a special concession from Nintendo to the core producers.
The confirmed information currently shows that the new work of "Nintendo Star Fight" is still in the early stage of conception and has not yet entered the actual development process.Although Bandai Namco may be involved in part of the work, given Sakurai's irreplaceable industry position in cross-company role empowerment, it is still the preferred option.This arrangement also reflects Nintendo's high dependence on core producers in the development of top IP sequels.
Industry analysts believe that the third-party cooperation resources accumulated by Masahiro Sakurai in the "Battle of the Storm" series are unique in the industry, and his personal reputation and network are the key to ensuring that the series continues to gain heavy cross-border roles.Nintendo's approval of Kabi's new work this time is not only a respect for the producer's creative needs, but also a helpless move to ensure the unchanged quality of the "Brave" series.
Nintendo has not yet made an official response to this news.If the information is true, players may violate the orthodox sequel to the "Battle of the Smash" series for many years in the future.
