It's a game that Yamane himself finds 'interesting', according to the interview, and it'll be published in-house by Platinum, so the studio isn't looking for an external publisher. Right now, details about Project GG are still pretty thin on the ground, but Platinum's Atsushi Inaba and Hideki Kamiya did share some more information in the Famitsu interview. Of course, the abject failure of Babylon's Fallcould cause the studio to rethink things in that direction. Platinum is also currently working on a brand new IP separate to Project GG, which could well be a live service game if Platinum sticks to the new direction it announced back in February this year.

The studio's upcoming slate includes several unannounced projects for different publishers, with the scale ranging from smaller titles to bigger ones.

Yamane himself will head up Platinum's publishing division, which is aiming to publish games on a global scale, both physically and digitally. Platinum is currently gearing up for Bayonetta 3, but the studio has many, many more plans beyond that game. It turns out that it's all part of a major expansion for Platinum, with CEO Atsushi Inaba telling Famitsu that he wants the studio to exceed 1000 employees in the future (about half as many as Koei Tecmo has). After former Nintendo managing director Takao Yamane joined Platinum earlier this week, speculation was rife regarding what his appointment meant for the studio. Despite this, the studio still found time to chat to Japanese gaming publication Famitsu (note: article is in Japanese, and we're using extra translation from gaming personality Nibel on Twitter) about its future plans. Right now, Platinum Games is gearing up for the launch of Bayonetta 3, which hits the Nintendo Switch in October. According to a new interview, Platinum is working on multiple unannounced projects, and it's looking to expand its workforce to more than 1000 employees across those projects in order to boost its publishing nous. 30!
