Esoteric game designer Hidetaka "Swery65" Suehiro has explained that his next game, the surreal Kinect-enabled time-travelling detective fantasy D4 (or Dark Dreams Don't Die) won't be available anywhere except the Xbox One.
"Please don't expect to be able to play D4 on any platform besides the Xbox One," he told Gaming Bolt. "This is not what you think about with Kinect. This game is something the core will be able to enjoy and see why Kinect is a great enhancement to gaming as a whole."
He also squashed rumours that D4 is related to his previous hit, the cult survival horror game Deadly Premonition. "Please understand that D4 is not a sequel to Deadly Premonition," is his final word on that matter.
What he will say of the game is that it will be episodic in nature, with each chunk taking between 90 and 120 minutes to complete, not including "meta-games and side quests".
"We're working hard on the production of this new title by setting up the foundation of 'emotional involvement' and 'realistic senses and feelings'," says Swery. "I feel that we are basically creating a kind of game that's really the first of its kind. We're aiming to create the sort of game that will truly become an "experience" in the players' lives, and I really think you'll like what we have in store."
