PS5 and PC Single-Player Action Game Lost Soul Aside: The Big Interview

After roughly a decade in development, Lost Soul Aside is finally launching on May 30th for PlayStation 5 and PC. Initially the solo passion project of Yang Bing, it's blossomed into a major Sony-published title under their "China Hero Project." Bing, now founder and CEO of Shanghai-based Ultizero Games, recently spoke with IGN about the game's long and winding journey.

From a solo creator's vision to a show-stopping trailer reveal at Sony's State of Play, the single-player action game has garnered significant hype. Many hail Lost Soul Aside as an exciting blend of Final Fantasy characters and the fluid combat of Devil May Cry, a comparison that emerged even when Bing's initial 2016 reveal video went viral.

With the assistance of a translator, IGN delved into the game's origins, inspirations, and the numerous challenges Ultizero Games overcame during its extensive development.
