A key highlight has been his focus on transmedia storytelling and how the future of interactive storytelling will likely shift gears for the industry as a whole. Neil points out how the success ofThe Last of Ushas led to further widening the potential for this medium:
This visibility excites me not only for our current project but for the broader potential of gaming to captivate a global audience. I’m eager to see how this new game resonates, especially following the success of The Last of Us, as it could redefine mainstream perceptions of gaming.
