Description:
Abandoned on PS5 still hasnt been fully revealed, and people wont stop theorizing as to why.
FULL STORY ======================================================================
After another public no-show, we still havent seen Abandoned on PS5 . And
more to the point, despite being announced in April on the PlayStation Blog , its hard to say with conviction what type of game Abandoned really is.
What it could be, however, has people really excited.
A new trailer for Abandoned was supposed to be released on August 10, but it never materialized due to technical difficulties that seemingly couldnt be resolved. That may sound odd, considering dropping a trailer on YouTube is hardly the greatest technical feat to accomplish, but Abandoned is using a native PS5 app to offer a realtime experience when it comes to the games trailers. There is a technical issue with the delivery of the patch. We are working to get this live ASAP. We apologize for the inconvenience. August 10, 2021 See more
This isnt the first time the developer Blue Box Game Studios has delayed its Abandoned reveal trailer, as it was initially supposed to arrive in June.
Load up the app now, which is available to download from the PlayStation Store, and youll be greeted with a Check back soon message. What is
Abandoned?
Abandoned has been shrouded in mystery ever since its reveal, and has somehow managed to spawn more wild conspiracy theories than youd hear at a flat-earthers' convention. From being a secret Hideo Kojima project to Silent Hill , its hard to keep track of it all unless you have an evidence board to hand.
Blue Box Game Studios hasnt exactly done itself any favors, either. The
studio has previously teased a blurred image of what appeared to be a figure wearing an eye-patch ( Solid Snake , anyone?) and wrote what can only be considered as an ill-advised tweet, asking fans to guess the letters between
S and L. Of course, everybody replied Silent Hill. Are you ready? We are! pic.twitter.com/dQJwjot99S July 27, 2021 See more
The sheer number of conspiracies have led the Abandoned dev team to publicly deny any links to Konami and Hideo Kojima, but that hasnt stopped the Twittersphere from continually piecing bits of evidence together to make surprisingly plausible links. Even the studios Twitter handle is a little suspect: @BBGameStudios. As Death Stranding fans will know, a BB is a Bridge Baby, which is a key component in Hideo Kojimas last game.
In fact, the most recent teaser from Blue Box Game Studios shows a man
walking towards what appears to be an open door. The man is wearing a green coat, jeans and fairly smart-looking shoes. That wouldnt mean much in any other game, but its almost a match for the outfit worn by James Sunderland in Silent Hill.

What we do know is that Abandoned is a first-person cinematic survival sim thats supposed to arrive on PS5 later this year. And, whatever the hell it turns out to be, the games marketing team are either geniuses or off their rocker.
If theres one thing that wont be abandoned anytime soon, its the hype for a PS5 game that almost everyone has an opinion on. Until we hear more, you can expect speculation to be rife, ridiculous and sometimes dangerously believable. PS5 vs PS5 Digital Edition : what's the difference?
