Just over a year ago, an interview between Wired and Shuhei Yoshida, President of Sony’s Worldwide Studios, took place, where Shuhei said that western developers were helping with The Last Guardian. As for which studios, he was quoted as saying, “It’s not just Santa Monica. We have great tech people in Worldwide Studios. We have a central tech group in the US and the UK so we are giving them whatever help they need.”
Sony Santa Monica’s Director of Technology, Tim Moss, spoke to Eurogamer, revealing the extent of their involvement:
I’m never really sure how that got in the press, because as far as I’m aware we’re not helping out with The Last Guardian. The only way you can say that is the knowledge that we contribute back to the central tech groups benefits The Last Guardian. So I’m guessing someone was slightly misquoted.
