Infograms President Phil Harrison has conceded that the forthcoming Alone in the Dark may be Atari’s last major single-player orientated videogame.
Speaking to Gamasutra, Harrison stated that the company plans to move away from the traditional single-player gaming experience, focusing more on the online social gaming sector.
“I don’t see that we’re going to be making huge-budget, single-player games in the future,” said Harrison.
“Now, that doesn’t mean that we won’t have ambition to do really incredible games that have high quality, high execution, and high innovation, but they won’t be one-player, narrative-driven, start-middle-end games.”
Alone in the Dark is due out next month on PlayStation 2, PC Wii and Xbox 360, with a PlayStation 3 version following this fall.
