PlayStation 3's Sorcery Isn't Dead

**Nitey** · 11-15-2011

The PlayStation Team here at IGN gets a lot of questions from readers. A lot. One of the more common ones is about the PlayStation 3 game Sorcery. Originally shown at E3 2010 as a promising title utilizing PlayStation Move, all has been quiet about Sorcery ever since. Is the game still coming? Is it stuck in development hell? Or -- worse yet -- was it outright cancelled?

Today, we can report that Sorcery is still in development, and better yet, we'll be seeing more about it soon. Speaking with IGN, Sony's Eric Levine told us that "Yes, Sorcery is still in development and we're very excited to show everyone how this PlayStation Move exclusive game is coming along." Better yet, Sorcery will be fully playable at Sony's Holiday Showcase in New York City this December, where we'll be able to provide you with our very first hands-on impressions.

So to the legions of readers and listeners of Podcast Beyond that have asked about Sorcery over the last year and a half or so, consider your question answered.

Sweet. I liked the look of this at last years E3 (check the link to watch video demo incase you don't remember). Might get Move if this turns out any good

Fingers crossed!

Good news! Hope its out early next year (a full year after it shouldve released) - hopefully its been turned into an open worldish RPG.

I honestly thought it was canned. lol.
Looks like I have another Move game to buy.

**Nitey** · 11-15-2011

Yeah I just re-watched the video from E3 which is in that article, to refresh my memory. And damn - that game has huge potential, I really hope they nail it!

FINALLY we get some freaking word, I got a move controller and that for Sorcery - Was also expecting more decent move third person move titles - then it was all but announced cancelled. Now its not. Beyond happy, and dont feel like I completely wasted $130! ^^

Though I wonder if they turned it from a $40 more title, into a full priced title - since it was suppose to be released forever ago, or so they made me believe

Better be worth it with all this time... the preview of this game convinced me to get Move.

Omg! It's Harry Potter!

Yeah I think they mustve decided to make it a much bigger game after all the reactions at E3, originally to release in Spring 2011 to now maybe Spring 2012 hopefully they've added a lot in a year.

This is good news for me too! I've been waiting for it ever since I've seen the Move demo from E3.

**DarkVincent07** · 11-15-2011

Finally news on one of the only promising Move games..

**mankind** · 11-15-2011

Move has been a waste for me, I am hoping this game saves it.

**mickice** · 11-15-2011

I love Move, it really is like the Wii only better xD also picking up Move Fitness, Medieval Moves, Carnival Island, EyePet & Friends and now Sorcery.
Move is really taking over.

I'm not sure about Medieval Moves, although I really enjoyed Sports Champions. But I'll buy Sorcery and Move Fitness as soon as they get released.

**AaronSOLDIER** · 11-15-2011

Move Fitness is cheap but I'll get it only if it has really fun activities.

It should do, it seems alot less strict than The Fight in it's motion detection. Still gotta wait a bit for reviews, but coming into Christmas SONY is releasing alot of move titles. over 6 I think.
