Fumito Ueda hopes his older games could appear on PC someday

Fumito Ueda, director of Ico, Shadow of the Colossus and The Last Guardian, first worked on PC releases as an animator on horror adventures D and Enemy Zero, which both got '90s MS-DOS releases. Once Ueda joined Sony and began designing his own games, however, he was dedicated to the PlayStation—a dedication that stuck through the end of 2016, with the release of The Last Guardian.

After partnering with Epic Games, Ueda's next project, the still mysterious Gen Atlas, will be the first he's directed to come to PC. We spoke at length about the game itself, including the prospect of getting his work in front of a new audience. "I have nothing but excitement and am happy that this can reach a lot more players just from day one," Ueda said.

"I'm looking forward to it as much as I think new players are looking forward to experiencing a Fumito Ueda game." I couldn't let the opportunity pass by without asking about the games he spent more than 15 years of his career developing.
